About...
A cheered smile and pun welcome new passengers to the Ferry - a legendary boat with an impeccable track record, manned by the powerful Dominion Syrinx. It alone can transverse any sea of the world, even the violent and stormy - and emerges safe and sound, proudly chewing up the waters as it bores down on its next destination.
The Ferry makes its months-long journey in a loop of all continents once a year, but accepts almost all passengers without questions and with a nominal fee - practically unheard of for most seafaring folk. Throughout it all, Syrinx laughs and jokes as he captains the vessel, listening to his refugees' shattered lives and assuring them of safety in other lands.
His ferrywork is so flawless and swift that Syrinx has become incredibly well-known and somewhat of a household name. Hosting the infamous Flame of Forging, Tvashtr, on his vessel year-round certainly helps. Still, he takes it seemingly in stride - and never asks for more than any passenger can afford.
Personality...
Polite, chipper, generally optimistic. Isn't bothered by much due to age and seeing a lot of shit. Genuinely interested in people and their life stories, finds experiences to be worth a lot more than money or objects. Is always somewhat reserved and private about himself, and is guarded around people his intuition is against.
Trusts himself (and Tvashtr) above anyone else, and if he gets a bad feeling about someone, he'll deftly avoid them. This isn't terribly common, though, as Syrinx is (rightly) confident he could take most threats.

Abilities...
Flames: Freshwater Clear Flame, Dominion of Lakes / Saltwater Murky Flame, Dominion of Shores = Dominion of the Sea
Syrinx's Flame allows him to intuit how to control any aquatic animal or vessel, the coming oceanic and lake weather, the state of waters just by a glance, and "communicate" with the waters in order to ask more either more favorable conditions or to sink another ship.
No boat with him onboard will ever capsize or be damaged in any way, and no aquatic creatures will harm vessels, cargo, or passengers. This extends to sea-behemoths.
Powers...
Syrinx is a good mage, and has memorized by heart the magical firework-esque signalling boats use to communicate with one another when coming into contact.
Even without his powers he'd be a good captain and skipper, but with them, he's exceptional.
Syrinx is also famous/influential for his talents and generosity with his ferry. Many people know of him and know what he does.
Artifacts...
His ship, the Graceful Wave. Tvashtr named it because Syrinx gets too excited as they near ports and starts waving like mad to the people on the harbor. Syrinx maintains it's just like, an oceanic wave, hush. It's moored in Parime when not at sea.
Has a fancy cutlass too but it's not named and he usually doesn't have to use it.
