< Ioakim | Kaila > Isak Poker of Fish (male, age 31)
    Workhorse, methodical, introverted, attractive.

    Locations: Pool, Lake, Coral Reef, Sea Cave, Hut 4.

    Character: Isak is willing to talk but he is always more interested in his work. As such, it can be difficult to get a clear opinion out of him. When he is fishing he is reluctant to talk because the noise scares the fish away; he tolerates no distractions while he applies himself to his vocation. Isak has a great respect for Rametep and the sea. He has an interest in the wrecked ship you arrived in, for he is amazed that a people would taunt Rametep so arrogantly. He doesn't seem too concerned about the killings; Isak feels there is no time to worry about such things, as there's fishing to be done. He is completely annoyed with Totok's incessant whining. In his opinion, Totok should shut up and get to work. Also, Isak has developed a certain rivalry with Fiala.

    Description: Isak’s body rises to an average height, and is of a fairly muscular build. His throwing arm is decorated with sea themed tattoos, and his short, wild hair sits atop a wrinkled brow. His large hands are coupled with narrow fingers; they look as though they are capable of fine motor skills. He carries a long fishing spear with a barbed shark-tooth tip. Isak wears only a simple loincloth.

      "Silence... you will scare the fish."
      "What? No, I don't have time for this..."
      "Your people play with Rametep? May Tepititan forgive you, brave fools..."
      "Good. Bad. We all must eat."
      "Rametep must be respected. Does he not supply our fish?"
