He says very little, and
even those who know him well - bartenders and a few silt skimmer captains - know
virtually nothing about him. But they, and many other port area workers, are quite aware hat he is a superb hunter. Captains often give him free passage if he will kill a lizard or
two for them. Dasiv often uses the services of the skimmers to go on extended hunts
around the region, and has little difficulty in surviving the harsh environment.
His usual weapon for hunting is a bow, as a jeeth can be a skittish creature and often do
not let human get close to them, but he also carries a spear for the more aggressive lizards
he faces. He has great respect for the reptiles of the desert and the role they play on Athas,
and lets none of his kill go to waste. The meat that he does not eat he sells, as wells as the
skins. (He has a small shop, little more than a booth, in an alley in the port district.) He
knows the wilderness around Balic better than any other, and can act as a guide, though
his fee is not cheap, and he never tolerates over-hunting an area.
Dasiv is a hunter who spends most of his time hunting jee and other lizards that sun
themselves on the shores of the Estuary of the Forked Tongue.
