Zalthara - Master Gunner's Apprentice

Zalthara is a green Lizardfolk who fled her role as a guard of the Ivory Walls City's defense forces. Her armor, once a symbol of duty and protection, is now a reminder of the life she left behind a guilt-ridden dynamic she battles with. It gleams with a well-maintained sheen, despite her rugged lifestyle aboard the ship. Always armored, Zalthara keeps her past close to her chest but shows a clear eagerness to learn, making her an ideal apprentice for Sparky, the master gunner.
Zalthara’s stern exterior belies a sharp mind and fierce dedication. She is meticulous in her work with cannons, learning the intricacies of their function and maintenance under Sparky’s gruff, cigar-smoke-filled guidance. She fled the city's rigid structure in search of freedom, and though she still keeps her armor as protection, the open sea is where she feels the most liberated. Though not loud herself, she respects Sparky's bombastic personality and absorbs his teachings with great care.
On the ship, she is quiet but disciplined, taking every opportunity to perfect her skills and ensure the crew's safety.
