Origin:

• Roden remembers working ever since he was a young boy. His father had a bad gambling addiction and would rashly spend his family’s money. Roden’s mother treated Roden more like a worker than a son in order to pay off their debt.
• Roden’s father’s debt was too much for him to handle eventually, and in order to not lose his life, he sold Roden off to Cassius, captain of the Voyager.
• Roden became a cabin boy aboard the Voyager, ready to answer anyone’s beck and calls. He was treated poorly, just a servant for the crew to use.
• A few weeks ago, the crew captured a mermaid. Mermaids are living fortunes, their tears able to heal any ailment and their scales worth thousands on the market. Curious to see the mermaid for himself, Roden starts to take jobs related to the mermaid to try to get a glimpse at them, staying well behaved in order to win over Cassius’ trust.
