Omezz Swift-Paw

His ginger fur, streaked with bold black tiger stripes inherited from his father, catches the light in irregular pools of amber and charcoal. Each fur stripe bleeds slightly into the next, creating a dynamic, almost wind-blown effect.

Omezz grew up under the Swift-Paw roof as one of the destined heirs, doted on by both parents yet chafing at their strict expectations. By age 12 he was already sneaking down to the docks, soaking in sailors’ tales and memorizing sea charts. His sister Aria’s success in arcane arts left him craving a path of his own.

On his twenty-first nameday, Omezz executed a daring plan. Under the cover of a stormy night, he stowed away aboard the pirate schooner Salty Stray. His departure cost two major Whiskers shipments and ignited a scandal in Whiskyhaven. His father, Lord Selem Swift-Paw publicly denounced him, while his mother Lady Tarya Swift-Paw tightened security on all distillery routes. During the escape, his sister and best friend Rami Delamas tried to dissuade him, resulting in Omezz accidentally injuring Rami quite seriously.

Within months, Omezz earned the moniker “Silverfang” for his ruthlessness in boarding actions and the flash of his silver-rimmed blade. He learned navigation from old sea dogs, mastered cutlass drills, and negotiated black-market alcohol deals. His crew of fifty follows him more for his bold charisma than for coin. Together they’ve raided at least three Swift-Paw convoys, each time leaving a single untouched cask as a mocking calling card.

Restless and fiercely independent, refusing to be tied down by legacy

Charismatic leader with a knack for rallying outcasts and rogues

Quick-witted, delighting in outsmarting rivals and authorities

His bond with Aria is complex: they share playful memories, yet her innate magical talents highlight his mundanities. Selem considers him a disgrace but still harbours hope of reclaiming him. Tarya mourns his absence quietly, using cryptic ledger entries to track his known hideouts.
