Ipess

 is a gnomish pirate and the former second mate on board the Squalleater. As an NPC, Ipess is played by Matthew Mercer.

Appearance
Ipess is a sun-burned gnome with a bald head and a bushy, black beard.

Personality
While his banter is a little crazed and hard to follow, he too is a devout follower of Avantika and Uk'otoa.

Ipess was present for the fierce battle between the crew of the Squalleater and The Mighty Nein. Using his skills as a rogue, he fired down on the Mighty Nein from the deck of the ship while they retreated, hitting Caduceus once. After Fjord summoned a Barlgura onto the Squalleater's deck he instead turned his attention to the demon until a fireball cast by Caleb felled the creature, injured Ipess and killed many of his crewmates.

As the battle came to a fiery end and local guards began to apprehend all those involved, Ipess checked on an unconscious Vera before he himself was apprehended by the guards. He was last seen still in The Revelry's custody alongside Bouldergut, Jeremiah Willowhisk and another unnamed crewmate after the execution of Avantika.
