I pretty much fail at self control
Hi guys. It's Maaya with her fifth here, BECAUSE OF COURSE IT IS.

Meet Raziya, an unlikely 23-year-old Rivaini ship captain who sails with an all-female crew and takes work from the highest bidder to take just about anything just about anywhere. You can read her rather convoluted story here, but the highlights are as follows:

• She's the daughter of a Rivaini Seer and a ship captain who died at sea before she was even born. Unfortunately, she really wanted to follow daddy's footsteps, no matter what her mother tried...
  
• Ran away at 14 disguised as a boy, joined the crew of a smuggling ship.
  
• Was semi-adopted by the ship captain as a protege and taught lots about sailing, fighting, and bargaining.
  
• Got outed as a girl at 19. Would probably have ended up sold to the highest bidder in Minrathous. Instead, staged a coup along with the slaves her former captain was transporting in his hold and took over the ship.
  
• For better or worse, has been captaining ever since. The beginning was fraught with hilarious mistakes but somehow she managed not to get herself and her crew killed, mostly because...
  
• She has an almost uncanny sense for the moods of the sea and the wind. She can sail through just about anything, and she learned enough before being outed to figure out the rest.
  
• She's a Tempest! And she's completely fearless and nugshit crazy when she fights, sorry in advance.

• She's looking for new crew members! Looking for a life of adventure on the high seas? SHE'S GOT YOU COVERED. As long as you're female. And by the way...
  
• Hay ladies, haaaaaaay~ Want to play? Because she's been at sea for awhile and could really use some company.
  
• She's been in Cumberland many times in the past! She's taken commissions from various groups, including both Guild and Carta not to mention human traders and so on. Currently, she's bringing in some luxury goods from Orlais and once her ship has had some repairs, is ready to take on another job!
  
• Since she's been here before, she's probably had some local lovers or friends. Hit me up! Friends of either gender, but she only sleeps with ladies, sorry guys. She gives zero flying nugs about your race or political affiliation, though, as long as you're game for some fun.
