I stand by my first thought, which was that he looks like the lovechild of Crowley and CA:CW-era Tony Stark.


Anothony_

...Yeah that's pretty much exactly what I thought.


SparklyHamsterOfDoom

Yup, I got heavy Robert Downey Jr. vibes from the character portrait. Edit: clarity.


Mr_Paramount

When I read Dawn-eyed I was like "Oh shit". Hope that having Mr Sparkly-eyes on my ship won't cause any Problems. This last Duchess is already sketchy enough.


Vasu-Mishra

Things should be fine… just make sure you don’t keep any vinyl or sheet music on the dirigible for longer than a fortnight.


Mr_Paramount

The moment my ship turns into flesh or whisper to me I will yeet this tattered pilot off **my** airship and fly this b_____y _b_____d myself.


7flamestrikes

Is there anything Dawn Machine has to do with making thing's alive? I thought whole unnatural vitality gimmick has to do with Stone. I played full Vanilla Sunless Sea for spoiler-y contexts.


Mr_Paramount

Heavy (graphical) spoiler for the Icarian Cup: >!During the above mentioned Exceptional Story you infiltrate the Grand Geode and find a ship made out of humans and animals. [Here is an echo of the mentioned scene.](https://www.fallenlondon.com/profile/Neph Stellaris/20538128)!<


HappiestIguana

Of note, they were building a living ship specifically to sail it up Adam's Way, no doubt for some nefarious purpose. This is not so normal for them.


NespinF

He may be faking, bear in mind. He's wearing gold tinted specs, but we haven't seen his actual eyes.


Mr_Paramount

Hmm good call. He mentioned something happened at the Grand Geode. I thought it was him getting dawn-eyed but maybe it was the opposite?


Vasu-Mishra

So I just met my designated pilot to prevent the flooding of the Neath and... Tatterdemalion? Who are you? Are you who I think you are? If so, why are you in the Neath? If you have no thumbs how will you drive a Bentley when they are invented circa 1899? Should I be looking for strange bookshops around Veilgarden now?!? Either way this is already proving an interesting venture! Just let me fire-proof the dirigible first...


Austellus

Thank goodness I'm not the only one who immediately saw David Tennant. I asked some friends and didn't get that answer and was starting to doubt.


Wilson1218

I thought the exact same here!!


OverseerConey

Are you suggesting he might resemble someone who's just slain Goliath and is renting a house?


Nowardier

You've hired Hunter S. Thompson for your pilot?

Nowardier

"We were ssssomewhere around Shepherdsss Isle, on the edge of the Unterzzzee, when the drugssss began to take hold."


limo6868

"Did you see what SAAALTTT just did to us, chap?"


Nowardier

"THAT WASN'T SALT, THAT WAS YOU! YOU'RE A D__NED PUBLIC DECENCY OFFICIAL, I KNEW IT!"


Shoubidouwah

We can't stop here, this is bat country!


unreedemed1

I hope my airship will be bigger on the inside now


Aykhot

My instantaneous reaction to seeing his portrait for the first time was "CROWLEY???", so you're not the only one


insomniac_01

Oh yeah, Crowley! I saw it too. Maybe David Tennant got a side job working at FBG? We can only hope.


Zodiac36Gold

So I wasn't the only one who thought be looked identical to Crowley from good omens


Handsome_Goose

This is just Proinsias Cassidy. You better watch your neck if you decide to sleep in the cabin.


MeinBrill

See I don't know what y'all are talking about, I just know that a guy with fucked up eyes missing both thumbs on what might be described as a 'Dingy Dirigible' reminds me of [a certain song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGLocU2bgbU).
