Roger Almsley
Kith	Boggan
Allegiance	Unknown
First Appearance	A Hop and a Skip

Roger Almsley is a Boggan with a rather daring set of mutton chops. A cold and calculating Boggan, Roger is the middleman who hired the Journeyman to take a shipment of crates to Panama City and was met at the beginning of A Hop and a Skip. His allegiance is suspect, as he never gives up the name of his employer. However fingers could easily point to the Count of Emerald Dale given that by Roger's word the Journeyman serve the County on their mission. When the crew discovered that the cannons supplied by Emerald Dale were sabotaged, Tabin believed it to be Roger's work. Conn discerned however, through Backwards Glance, that Roger was not involved in the sabotage. Whether he was in on it, or knew of it however, remains to be known.

Sir Havrad Vega ap Gwydion
Kith	Troll
Allegiance	Caer Cullis
Location	Panama City, Panama
First Appearance	A Hop and a Skip

Not much is known about Havrad. Obviously the muscle of Javier's entourage, Havrad was met at the end of A Hop and a Skip when the shipments were delivered.

Ipsha
Kith	Nunnehi
Allegiance	Unknown
Location	Unknown
First Appearance	The Stowaway Side Job

A heavily tattooed woman with dark complexion for a spaniard, dark hair and lustrous red eyes. Ipsha was the person being transported during the events of A Hop and a Skip. As the Gwydion Three sought international waters realizing what they were carrying, Wick awakened Ipsha believing she shouldn't be forced into sleep. Attacking Wick upon awakening, Ipsha froze most of the crew before getting restrained by Wick. She then disapppeared with the crates of weapons that were delivered, infuriating Javier who believes the Journeyman is responsible for Ipsha's presence and the ultimate theft.

Sir Javier Argo ap Gwydion
Kith	(Autumn) Sidhe
Allegiance	Caer Cullis
Location	Panama City, Panama
First Appearance	A Hop and a Skip

Not your average Gwydion, Javier is a sworn knight in service to the Count of Panama. His autumn roots however distinguish him from other Gwydion, willing to get his hands dirty at times to perform a greater duty. Regardless what one might say about him, his honor guides his actions and there is no room for compromise. What that -is-? Is anyone's guess. Javier was one of the detachment who picked up the shipment from the County of Emerald Dale.

During the events of The Stowaway, Ipsha was awakened by Wick and stole the shipment of goods which turned out to be two crates full of high-powered weapons and explosives. The only one of the Gwydion Three not effected by Ipsha's powers, Javier attempted in vain to slay her. By the time he turned his attention to the Privateers, Wick and those on board were saved and the Journeyman escaped.

Dame Zamora de la Viriathus ap Gwydion
Kith	Arcadian Sidhe
Allegiance	Caer Cullis
Location	Panama City, Panama
First Appearance	A Hop and a Skip

Little is known of the fair knight Zamora, an Arcadian Sidhe who is as out of touch with humanity as her alien features would suggest. The true noble of the Gwydion Three of Caer Cullis, Zamora is the quiet, observant, immobile pillar to Javier's zest and Havrad's strength. She was met during the end of A Hop and a Skip but was not interacted with.

The High Seas

These are the Kithain the PCs have met on the high seas.

Tamar Salazar de Manikith
Kith	Selkie
Ship	The Creeping Star (ex-Captain)
Location	Bay of California
First Appearance

Tamar Salazar is a spanish Selkie. He generally sticks to the Mexican coast, raiding and pilfering from cargo freighters or, if the gumption is good, from Kithain transports and merchanteers. He met the crew of the Journeyman as they returned from Panama City and engaged in battle only to lose, have his crew mutiny and leave him behind and take the ship. He is currently imprisoned at the County of Emerald Dale. Known as the Manikith as it appears his Kith seems to fluxuate from person to person, depending on who is looking at him and when. It was learned during The Prisoner Side Job That Tamar was not hired by any one person, instead following a rumor heard in "Haven" of a valuable shipment he sought to plunder.

Tamar has a high disdain for Concordians, much of the cause for his venture to strike the Journeyman was just as much prejudice as it was piracy.

Nualla
Kith	Eshu
Port of Call	Fairytales
Location	Hawai'i Island, Hawai'i.
First Appearance	A Spear in the Deep 1

The Proprietor of Fairytales, a Hearth Freehold on Hawai'i Island, Nualla is a Grump. She is a source of information but also a place of safety for many Kithain, especially given the current rule over Hawai'i by Prince Yraltien ap Ailil. Many courtiers of Hawai'i find their way to Fairytales to enjoy the atmosphere, the stories Nualla tells at the bar and the general peace. Of the Kithain holdings in the state, Fairytales is the only one that rarely hosts the native Menehune.

Nualla knows Tabin from his trading missions between Hawaii and California, the two Eshu exchanging stories and general tab-keeping. Fairytales was where the Privateers sought information on the Invictus.

Prince Yraltien ap Ailil
Kith	Arcadian Sidhe
Port of Call	Hawai'i Island.
Location	Hawai'i Island, Hawai'i.
First Appearance	A Spear in the Deep 1

Yraltien is a nobody to anyone outside Hawai'i. But for the natives of the Island, he is anything but. Hawai'i Island is almost 100 percent Unseelie, as Yraltien makes it an effort to drive out any stalwart Seelie presence (save Fairytales, which pays taxes). While the Privateers do not know much of Yraltien, he is an Oathbreaker - detected by Maggy and Erin when his warship The Shadowfire entered port, a yacht that to fae eyes looks like a live black sea dragon swimming in the waves. Tabin has made mention that Yraltien is a madman, but little else has been discussed of the Sidhe Lord.

Commander Goggen Ironfoot
Kith	Boggan
Ship	The Invictus
Port of Call	Unknown
First Appearance	A Spear in the Deep 2
Reputation Merit

Goggen Ironfoot is a Greybeard with a mowhawk with grey streaks of age tied in a braid in the back. Unlike one many expect a seadog of repute to wear, Goggen wears fisherman's clothes. Heavy shirts and pants, sometimes rubber overalls depending on how work is. However, in wartime, these clothes and heavy fabrics are made of Kevlar weave. He has one eye cataract'ed over and his right leg is missing. He has a real world prosthetic which chimerically covers the automoton-clockwork leg he has instead that gives him a jagged step. Goggen is famous among Commoners and Nobles alike. To Commoners he is a symbol of the citizen soldier, to the Nobles (depending who you ask) either a worthy adversary and a tale of common valor or a scourge.

Goggen maintains some of the hallmarks of his Kith. He's kind, humble, not one for boasting. He disdains combat, as he always has, and does not kill unless forced to do so for his (or his crew's) own survival. Following the Accordance War he retired from service with Ronnie, his Nocker Wife who he married during the course of the war. Following their retirement they went...somewhere, for quiet solitude. When Ronnie was killed by a patrol skiff, confirmed by Goggen to be the Shadowfyre, Yraltien ap Ailil's flagship, Goggen took his greivance to the Governor of Hawa'ii, who unilaterally dismissed Goggen for a lunatic.

The Invictus has been campaigning in the Pacific ever since, sinking Concordian ships to deny 'The False David' access to the Pacific determined to force Concordia to submit so that he can give his Ronnie justice and return to whence he came.
