Conuld, human transmuter 1 (AC 12, HP 6/6)
"Forty dragons!" says Conuld. "That is astonishingly generous... and it saves me no small amount of embarrassment. I volunteered for this journey without considering the parlous state of my finances."

[/sblock][sblock=Important numbers]Initiative +6; Listen +1; Spot +1; Move Silently +3; Sense Motive +1[/sblock][sblock=DM]Yes, Conuld is a little bit of a cipher, even to me. This was initially somewhat intentional - a no longer very young man, who has spent the last 7 or 8 years helping out in a private library for little more than bed and board, who feels his life has been wasted until now, and begins a transformation when he discovers an aptitude for magic - and is kicked out of his library by an angry employer when he expresses a wish to earn his fortune. But at least in his first adventure, nothing much immediately sprang out at me - he was a little more suspicious than I expected, and showed flashes of anger and frustration with dithering and with being thwarted. There was, in the back of my head, a peasant background for him, which was going to express itself in feelings of inferiority towards the smarter, Chromatic Order-educated Tommy Worthallingham, but really they got on just fine. Yep, I'm perfectly happy with any acquiring-a-familiar subplot.[/sblock]
