Captain Sellig
When the Piscean's ruling council promoted Jason Sellig to Captain of the Harbor Guard, the rank and file did not know what to make of him. He was a scholar, raised among the scientists and sages of the Yard, a man whose instincts were shaped by books rather than by boarding actions. He read histories. He studied moral philosophy. He spoke about discipline and institutional excellence with the earnestness of someone who had learned about naval command from texts rather than from the sea.
Then he instituted training programs so rigorous that the Harbor Guard became the most elite sailors in the northeast, and the skeptics stopped talking.
Sellig commands roughly twenty ships from the flagship Breakwater, a customized Luxeboat fitted with full heavy artillery. His force enforces salvage rights, maintains law, and defends Baytowne's waters from Saltwise raiders and anyone else who mistakes the bay for open territory. He drove off raiders targeting ocean-side ruins. He built a force that other settlements measure themselves against. He did it all with a bookish rigor that his predecessors would not have recognized and could not have matched.
Now in his forties, Sellig is a fixture of Baytowne society who has maintained peace for over a decade. Rumors suggest he has begun quietly searching for a successor, though such talk is officially discouraged and disciplined if discovered. The transition, when it comes, will be the first real test of whether Sellig's legacy is the man or the institution he built.

Personal history
Jason Sellig's appointment as Harbor Guard Captain surprised many who expected the Piscean's council to choose a more martial leader. Raised among the scholars of the Yard, Sellig brought a bookish temperament to a position that traditionally demanded seamanship above all else. His response was to institute training programs so demanding that skepticism turned to respect within a single season.
Under his command, the Harbor Guard grew from a competent patrol force into the most disciplined naval outfit in the northeast. Sellig drove off Saltwise raiders targeting ocean-side ruins, enforced salvage rights across the bay, and established protocols that elevated every aspect of Harbor Guard operations. His flagship, the Breakwater, a customized Luxeboat with full heavy artillery, became the visible symbol of Baytowne's authority on the water.
Over a decade of unbroken peace has made Sellig a fixture of Baytowne society. Now in his forties, he commands roughly twenty ships and oversees law enforcement across the region. Quiet rumors suggest he has begun searching for a successor, though any talk of transition is officially discouraged and disciplined if discovered. The question hanging over Baytowne is whether the institution Sellig built can outlast the man who built it.
