Physical Appearance:
Tobin is an average sized gnome. He has silvery grey hair, with green eyes and a bright smile. His complexion is more tan that one would expect from someone who spends at much time pouring over old tomes as he does.
Backstory:
Tobin came to Gate Pass to study at a young age. No tragedy or twist of fate landed him on the doorstep of the city's library, just an unending well of curiosity about anything and everything.
Poor of coin and devoid of any marketable craft skills, Tobin elected to join the priesthood of the temple that oversaw the library.
He spent many years pouring over old tomes on the arcane, history, religions, and anything else she could get his hands on.
During his time at the library, he was approached many times by operatives from a secret organisation to obtain information. They convinced him that they had good intentions, and he was more than happy to bring knowledge to others.
He also saw this organisation as agents of truth and stability, and Tobin was more than happy to oblige.
Now, times are changing. News is no longer coming to Gate Pass, and the library is having difficulty getting tomes of lore. Civilation and order are at risk and Tobin has been growing weary. He has learned about a distant safe haven, a mages' school named Lyceum.
This is where he needs to go to help, if he can. In the short term, Tobin was asked to meet an operative named Torrent shortly before midnight in the pub of the Poison Apple Inn to discuss things, and to use the alley door.
Things were about to get exciting, and exciting is not good for civilation and the dissemination of knowledge...

There is still room for one more player in this campaign?
Well, I may have been optimistic trying to get this started right before Christmas time. Although that wasn't really what slowed me down (it was certainly a contributing factor) as much as some more unexpected surprises--not all bad, the most significant was an unexpected promotion that really left me a lot more exhausted than I anticipated while I was getting used to it and training/being trained.
And then there was some embarrassment and putting off sticking my head back in here after I realized it had been several weeks and I'd disappeared without warning.
So... I apologize for my disappearance. If people aren't interested any more, that's fine and I don't blame them.
But if you are still interested, I can get this going again.

Sure, I am still interested if my character idea was cool with you...
