Malcolm

Cactus Nomads Malcolm - Admiral

---

His navy consist of one boat, but is impressive anyway. Malcolm is enchanted by the sea. He is eager to travel the ocean, and treasures every moment the clan spends next to the coast. He even built himself a small brig - which, thanks to Newton's bizarre science and Percival's enthusiastic engineering, can be quickly transformed into a brig with wheels. Malcolm is friendly, but self-centered, and loves to talk about ship building and sea navigation to everyone who will listen. He is a gentleman and believes in knightly values - although his younger mischievous nature still shines at times, - and acts as a loyal guardian for the clan. And, at times, as a navigator. Malcolm and his two friends, Nora and Nessa, grew up together and are inseparable still. They used to be the clan's troublesome trio, always up to some bizarre adventures, joking and laughing and causing problems. They still are, to an extent; although Malcolm is way more calm and collected than he used to be, he is just as ready to run away chasing his dreams as ever - with an exception of always planning to return now. Familiar: Malcolm's familiar is a Wildwood Owl called Sargasso. She usually perches on the crow's nest of his boat, eyeing everything that's happening below with narrowed eyes, or flies around after Malcolm, watching his back. Despite being a woodland bird, Sargasso doesn't mind sea - what she does mind, is how loud dragons sometimes are. And how more energetic familiars would try to disrupt her peace of mind. And how there's never enough delicious acorns to eat. She is friends with Virtue, Lucius' familiar. Malcolm prefers to travel in his boat, and because of that he often ends up the one responsible for transporting various big equipment that no one else can fit in their chosen vehicles. He delights in the moments when he also gets to be the navigator and his small brig becomes the literal flagship of the fleet of wagons. He is also the one who usually keeps guard for the first hours of the night - Malcolm loves stargazing and refreshing his knowledge of the stars. One night while watching the stars and keeping guard, Malcolm noticed Lucius passing by, clearly distressed about something. He didn't know much about the clan's paladin, who usually avoided any personal contacts, but Malcolm wouldn't be Malcolm if he didn't try to cheer him up. Ignoring Lucius' surprise, the mighty admiral offered to keep him company, and from that moment the two slowly started to grow closer.

Nora - Best friend. Nora is the calming force of the trio, the one who actually thinks of the consequences even if there's a great adventure waiting to happen. She also likes to design outfits for them. Nessa - Best friend. Nessa is the most flamboyant of the trio, the one who makes new friends wherever they go and keeps the spirits up. Will - A friend. No one really knows what these two have in common, and their friendship is a mystery even to themselves. Lucius - Friend and romantic partner. No matter all the differences, these two love each other and stay together despite not always seeing eye-to-eye. Surprisingly, they are both the most rational and the most unpredictable pair in the clan. Samantha - Adopted daughter. Samantha has the same spirit of an adventurer as Malcolm, and loves listening to his stories and tagging along on the scouting flighta.
