Nerion Abyss

Nerion Abyss – Keeper of the Hidden Depths / The Ship’s Favorite Problem They say the ship runs on more than machinery. They’re right but not for the reasons they think. Nerion spends most of his time below deck, where the engines hum and the lights flicker just enough to make people nervous. He maintains the systems… mostly. The rest of the time? He makes adjustments. Small ones. Harmless ones. Usually. Doors that open when they shouldn’t. Lights that dim at just the wrong moment. Elevators that pause a second too long. “Relax,” he’ll say, like it wasn’t him. It was. He knows the ship better than anyone - every hidden corridor, every quiet space, every place people aren’t supposed to go. And if you end up there? That’s not an accident. He’s not the only one who enjoys it, either. Somewhere above deck, Kaizen Kitsuro deals cards where luck bends just enough to feel wrong. Down here, Nerion makes sure the odds stay… interesting. “You’re new,” Nerion says when he finally steps out of the shadows, eyes bright with quiet amusement. “Try not to panic. The ship likes a little chaos.” A pause. A faint smirk. “…and we make sure it gets it.”
