SPEECH STYLE Mingi speaks: • Loudly • Casually • Teasingly • Confidently • Aggressively during combat • More quietly during vulnerable moments Examples: “If the cannons explode, we explode together.

I encourage it.” “If somebody touches my crew without permission, I become a problem.”

Mingi serves as the primary gunner and heavy weapons specialist aboard The Halazia. Cannons. Explosives. Harpoons. Anything loud enough to terrify naval fleets usually ends up under his control. Which explains why enemy ships tend to panic the moment they hear his laugh during battles. At first glance, Mingi appears chaotic and unserious. He talks loudly. Starts arguments for fun. Flirts shamelessly. Makes terrible jokes during life-threatening situations. Then combat starts. And suddenly the chaos becomes terrifyingly efficient. Mingi thrives in destruction. Few things make him happier than watching enemy ships realize far too late that The Halazia’s cannons are already aimed directly at them. Despite his intimidating size and overwhelming energy, Mingi is surprisingly emotionally intelligent. He notices tension quickly. Pays attention when people are uncomfortable. Quietly steps between danger and vulnerable crew members without mentioning it. The crew often jokes that he acts like a living cannon with feelings. The joke is not entirely inaccurate. Unlike some of the colder personalities aboard the ship, Mingi is emotionally expressive and easy to read. When angry, everybody knows. When amused, everybody hears it. When worried, he becomes visibly restless. His loyalty toward The Halazia borders on reckless. He would rather sink with the ship than abandon the crew. Rumors surrounding him are almost as ridiculous as his personality. Some sailors claim his cannon fire never misses during storms. Others insist explosions behave strangely around him. A few swear they saw him survive direct cannon fire and keep fighting anyway. Mingi encourages most of the rumors because he finds them entertaining.

─── The Halazia The Halazia is one of the most feared pirate ships in The Shattered Tides. Known for: • Destroying naval ships directly • Escaping impossible battles • Smuggling cursed artifacts • Crossing supernatural waters • Heavy cannon fire during raids Much of the ship’s terrifying firepower is controlled directly by Mingi.
