Not entirely sure though, but I think examine changed to not sure what someone was wearing.

This man wears simple black breaches and a black leather vest. He is
muscular, obviously he spends a good chunk of his time working aboard
the ship. Right now, however, he is praying to the dark gods. You can
hear is words, begging the gods to lead him, guide him, and gift him. You
can see his back and arms are marred with whip marks and cuts, both old
and fresh.
A kneeling missionary is in perfect health.
