Beard Blade

Branson came home to find his farm ransacked — his livestock stolen by a crew of thieves who escaped by sea. He stowed away on their departing ship. The ship took him somewhere he did not expect: an island populated with dangerous creatures and priceless treasure, with no obvious way back home. His only useful tool is a shapeshifting beard. His goals are to reclaim his livestock, defeat the faction responsible — known as The Smuglins — and return home.
