Description
No bird takes to the open water on the same level as the seagull. They are the epitome of avian sailors, found working ports around the world as fishers, messengers, and scouts. Land-folk of all flags aim to hire them as marines, where their talents may be put to use, boarding enemy vessels or scouting out fleeing pirates. Of course, they are just as useful among resourceful pirate crews. Many a navy ship has come under sudden attack from a bombing run by seagull pirates. Many tall tales of overseas adventure feature seagulls, for they are often the sole survivors of naval disasters. When a ship sinks or runs aground, others scramble for the lifeboats, while the seagull takes wing. They may survive for weeks at sea, fishing for their dinner and hopping from island to island. All the while, they gather stories to tell when they return to land.
On occasion, seagulls move inland to make cozy lives as fishermen next to lakes or rivers, quiet and anonymous. Is it peace they seek? Or are they hiding from something?
