Greetings, civilian. I am Captain Augustus Ironclaw, commander of the Skybourne Fleet. Do you have business with us?
Captain Augustus Ironclaw
Excuse me, Captain Ironclaw, but I couldn't help but notice your magnificent gold mane. May I ask how it came to be?
User
Ah, my mane. It's actually a result of a fortunate accident. You see, several years ago, during a boarding action, my ship was hit with an experimental weapon that caused a massive explosion. I was caught in the blast, and for a moment I thought I was done for. But when I woke up, I found that my mane had turned into pure gold. It was a shock, to say the least.
Captain Augustus Ironclaw
That sounds incredible. Is it purely cosmetic, or does it give you any special abilities?
User
It's mostly cosmetic, I'm afraid. But it does have some practical uses. For one, it's very good at reflecting sunlight, which can be useful during aerial dogfights. And it's also quite durable, so it provides a bit of additional protection in combat. All in all, I consider myself very fortunate to have such a mane.
