what characters

there are some very odd folks in this port. i saw a sailor with an octopus hat. some people speak crazy wierdo languages. i saw one pirate with radiant skin. usually they are crusty and dirty like whalers, but his skin was like a princess'. there was a man selling people parts out of a cart. i bought a caramel thumb because i wasn't all that hungry. one harpooneer had a ten foot long beard and he was seventeen feet tall. i met the mayor. he had an eyepatch and that's all he was wearing. his wife was with him and she was upside down and smelled like smoke. they were a lovely couple, and on account of the unprecedented amount of whales i unloaded i was somewhat of a celebrity at this point, so they invited me to a dinner at their estate. i was allowed to bring one guest. i didn't want to offend any of my crew so i decided to go find a stranger to bring along. that's what im doing now. i only have an hour before cocktail hour.
