Description & Personality: Lylamwyn could easily be described as a "typical Elf". He's somewhat short, thin, and has a slim face. He has somewhat long, silvery hair, which usually hangs free. He dresses in white and silver robes, and sometimes wears his long and gray travel cloak. His backpack is also gray.

Lylamwyn is usually calm, as most people think elves always are, and certainly shows his race's usual share of patience and sometimes thinks that the humans are way too busy for their own sake, but he has lost some of his disregard towards time, and learned to do his job quickly. He thinks that the fast way of doing things is the only way the races with shorter lives can actually get something done, and accepts it as another cultural difference, which sometimes amuses him.

Temporary Modifiers: Medium load. Speed 20ft, -3 Armor Check Penalty.

Notes: Ability score increases, 4th: Intelligence, 8th: Intelligence.

Description: Belaver is slightly taller than your average halfling, and slightly stouter; he dresses in plain brown robes, accentuated only by an ornate periapt. He is constantly accompanied by his companion, a shaggy, very affectionate dog larger than he is.

He is slowly becoming visibly paranoid, his head and that of his familiar constantly scanning the area in the absolutely certain knowledge that he has been outmaneuvered and that an ambush is imminent. So far, he has usually been right. Fortunately, he has grown in his powers to the point where he need not fear most calamities, which has lessened his morbid tendencies.

Background: The Thornfoot family has a long tradition of service in the Old Faith. Belaver learned the Druidic tongue, prayers, and practices from his grandfather Artorius Thornfoot, a respected patriarch in his home village. His youth was never particularly eventful, nor was Belaver ever seized with wanderlust; his presence in Hommlet is, like most of Belaver's actions, a product of his grandfather's guidance. The old halfling directed his youthful grandchild to this village after a day-long consultation of cloud patterns and various natural "concentration enhancements," telling the boy only that he'd see why his journey was important in time.

Belaver has now been in Hommlet for two years, making his living by selling various natural remedies, and supplementing it with hunting and fishing.

Family tree:

Father: Jonas Thornfoot, miller, resident of (halfling village between one and two week's travel)
Mother: Asa Thornfoot, housewife, resident of (above village)

Paternal Grandfather: Artorius Thornfoot, druid (semi-retired), resident of (above village).

Illegitimate half-sister: Cassandra Stone, twelve years older, blackguard in service of Hextor, whereabouts unknown.

Needless to say, Jonas doesn't talk about Cassandra much.

Kerwyn is a suel-originating human man 20 years of age, five feet eight tall with a slim build of around 150 pounds. His unruly, dark-blonde hair (check the illustration of Gimble in the PHB for the hair style) goes well with his light grey eyes and the charming smile he shows to the customers of the Welcome Wench as he moves among them, when pulling coins out of people's ear or nose, when 'finding a stolen purse' in the pocket of the one sitting next to whomever the purse belongs to, when merely doing simple card tricks.

Equipment: Explorer's outfit; Backpack, belt pouch, masterwork thieves' tools, masterwork light crossbow with a case of 10 bolts, +1 dagger taken from Festrath, +1 studded leather armor, two identical decks of cards, Bandana of Disguise, Cloack of Resistance +1, Gloves of Dexterity +2, Elixir of Hiding, Potion of Darkvision, Potion of Levitate, Potion of Spiderclimb, Potion of Glibness, Potion of Cure Light Wounds, Potion of Cure Moderate Wounds; no valuables

Background: Parents forced him to magic academy, went along, making fake magic scrolls or stealing those of his fellow students when they were assigned such work. Tagged along a while when practical spell training began by leeching spells off his teachers and the other apprentices, but was caught and forced to take an extended leave (under construction).

Family Tree: Under construction, most likely includes a couple of wizards and/or sorcerers of some power

Pyrex

Description & Personality:
Raner is 60 years old, 4' tall and weighs 160lbs. Unlike many dwarves he keeps his coal-black hair and beard short (short, for a dwarf, being down to his breastbone). Having spent many of his early years among humans he is less dour than is typical for his kin, but no less serious when it comes to business.

Background:
For several generations the dwarves of Clan Bluestone operated a diamond mine in the Lortmil mountains. A hundred years ago disaster struck when they tunneled into a cavern that was home to a mighty demon of fire and shadow. Try as they might they could not prevail against the demon and it's minions, the clan was soon routed, fleeing the mine in disarray. Cut off from any route deeper into dwarven territory, Raner's parents Elossa and Dvalin fled to the surface; eventually finding their way to Hommlet.

Currently, Raner works for Gister Noshim the Stonemason, inspecting and purchasing raw materials from quarries in the area as well as smaller quantities of semi-precious stones brought through town by traders.

Dalamar

Since pretty much everything I know about the setting is the info you can get from the PHB, I'm open for suggestions. Most likely not a very high-profile school since he was able to fool the teachers long enough to actually learn the basics of magic.

Prolly not any of the Circle of Eight (that's the name, isn't it?), most likely just somebody/-ies a step or two above your run-of-the-mill hedge wizard. Not somebody nationally known, but somebody whose name is known in the neighboring towns too.

Not "I want to take over the world"-evil, but "I don't care who gets hurt if the job gets done"-evil would fit the bill, I think

Hiding. Don't think he'd ask for magical training from Lord Burne, he's not really into the book thing at all. He tried to stay in his original school just for the thrill he got from the thievery and because that's what his family wanted. I'd say he hasn't done really anything that has to do with real magic since the day he fled.

Appearance: Craven is tall and well-muscled, his face chiseled, with a firm, cleft chin and a proud beaky nose. He wears a neat goatee and moustache, and keeps his blonde hair cut short. His face is often neutral of expression, showing neither happiness nor fear, almost to the point of being habitually mask-like. When expecting trouble, he wears a suit of scale mail, otherwise he wears clean traveling clothes of buff and tan. He keeps a dagger in his belt at all times, and carries his favorite warhammer when permissible.

Personality: Craven often tries to master his expression and voice to avoid betraying his true feelings. Those who have just met him might get the impression that he is rather stoic and stiff. With close friends or family he will show a smile, but with anyone else he tends to be reserved, unwilling to let too many get under his skin, for fear of what they might find there.

Background: Craven’s life started out rather inauspiciously, actually starting with his great grandfather Orwal. Orwal was a priest of St. Cuthbert who led a group of adventurers to destroy a small orc tribe that had been plaguing Hommlet. However, the battle was close, and Orwal was captured by the tribe’s shaman. Knowing that he could not expect to survive, the shaman chose to curse Orwal’s line rather than just kill him.

In a frantic ceremony, the shaman cursed Orwal’s third generation. “Your firstborn son will share your god’s worst vice, cowardice. The stain upon your family name will never be erased.” In a final gesture of defiance, the shaman immolated himself along with all of his articles of power, leaving Orwal alive. Orwal tried to dismiss the curse from his mind, but it lingered, through his marriage, the marriage of his daughter, and the birth of their firstborn son. He had told his family of the curse, and in defiance of the curse, Lilinda named her son Craven.

However, the curse was not dismissed from Craven’s mind, even if outwardly he wore the cowardly name as a badge of courage. Often he heard the tales of glorious battle from the elders of the community, and outwardly he praised them, but inwardly he was relieved that he hadn’t had to do them, for her was certain that he would have run away or surrendered. Most of his dreams were filled with thoughts of cowardice, of men that ran instead of fought, who escaped instead of dying.

In as much defiance as his parents, Craven began training as a warrior, and found a calling in the Church of St. Cuthbert, a god of stoicism and protection. Certainly within such a church his mental cowardice could be trained away. He learned the art of weaponsmithing and armor-making, as well as the use of both of the things he made. Preferring the solidity of a warhammer to the mace, he chose to use one in the service of his god, becoming ordained as a paladin and knight.

Proudheart is a family name, bestowed seven generations before by a grateful noble. Craven's many-times-great-grandfather was a squire in his service, and had just achieved his knighthood when the noble's cousin was kidnapped. Many experienced knights went to rescue her, and were unsuccessful. The young knight was eager to prove his worth, and proud of his abilities, and promised to deliver the noble's cousin to him. Despite his youth, the noble agreed, for all others had failed, so what harm could come of the boy's attempt?

It took no less than three years for the young knight to track down the cousin's kidnapper. Each time he thought about abandoning his quest, his pride would not let him, and his great love for his lord could not let him rest. Eventually he did find the kidnapper, and dealt justice to him swiftly. He took the lord's cousin home, and the lord bestowed upon him a family name to commemorate his deed. Proudheart, Proud for the pride that refused to let him fail, and heart for the compassion and love that drove him ever onward.

Hommlet, however, is a small town. Great crusades are hard to come by, and even the noblest warrior must make a living. Putting his skills to work in helping supply the temple with weapons, Craven put his skills to work to earn his bread. He moonlights in the Welcome Wench as a peacekeeper, and the temple has him protect travelers on the road to nearby towns, for a suitable donation.

Though Craven has crossed blades with the occasional bandit and been able to do his duty, he has fought down intense surges of fear so great they come close to paralyzing him. Though he has managed to face down human foes and the occasional goblin or orc, he fears his fear will cause him to freeze before the face of any greater evil. His fear feeds upon itself, and he dares not even mention it to his superiors. He cannot even bring himself to pray for courage, believing that any change must come from within.

Family Tree: (P = paternal side, M = maternal side, D = deceased)

Mother – Lilinda (potter)
Father – Trevor (leatherworker for the temple)
(P) Uncle Evan (single)
(P) Uncle Lars (Married Aunt Elanor, had cousins Fredrick and Ingrid)
(M) Uncle Wiran (Married Aunt Saran, had cousin Jame)
(M) Uncle Iben (D) (died at 15 in goblin raid)
(M) Aunt Sibby (Sibria) (Married Uncle Pol, had triplet cousins Jan, Elorn, and Nol; work in neighboring town)
Sister Jona (younger, 16, married to Rolf, had niece Yeldara; employed as bakers)
Sister Marly (next oldest, 14)
Brother Frex (baby, died year after Jona was born, of fever)

Craven has a good relationship with his family, though he has kept a bit of distance with his parents since he joined the temple. He hopes to keep them from knowing his inner heart by pledging his duty to keep him from home. However, he does try to take care of his sister Marly from time to time. Of all those in his family, only she has some knowledge of how he feels, and she would not reveal his secret for the world. He knows soon she will marry, and is carefully screening all potential suitors. If anyone dares break her heart, they will face the full force of Craven’s anger.

Background
Toriah had lived in Verbobonc until a few years ago. His mother was a Rhenne and his father was a half-elven man she met in the town. The two settled in long enough for Toriah to grow up a bit, but in his thirteenth year they left, following the call of the river and further adventure. He never saw them again, though he listened to every bit of gossip that came in. Some days he wished they were dead, upset for leaving him, and some days he hoped they were out there still, amassing their fortunes. He has pretty much given up hope that they are going to return to him, but that possibility has crossed his mind once or twice.

When they left him, he had a decent education and the attractiveness of a half-elf in a mostly human town. However, restless and angry after his parents' departure, he dropped their surname and took to petty thievery. His parents had left him a small inheritance with a neighbor, who was to hold it until he came of age. He spent several weeks with the neighbor, until the disillusionment of being abandoned by his parents drove him into the streets, where he commenced his petty larceny. A minor figure in the local Thieves' Guild took Toriah in and taught him a few basic skills. After some time scraping by and paying dues to the Guild, Toriah struck out on his own, leaving the Guild with no hard feelings between them.

He spent a few years on his own, cheating and swindling the upright citizens of Verbobonc until he received an unsigned message from a friend in the Guild. Leave town, it read. You've well and truly done it now, and you've seriously annoyed Someone Important. I don't know who or how. Insider in the constabulary told me you should have a week, but I wouldn't outstay my welcome if I were you. Toriah was not alarmed, having been in tight places with the law before, but he was smart enough to heed the anonymous message. He returned to the neighbor, who was shocked to see him, having resigned himself to watching the boy--now a man--remain a criminal for the rest of his days. Toriah thanked him for his care and his concern, received what was left of the inheritance (some of it having been used already, for Toriah's care while living with the neighbor, who had been scrupulously good about keeping it), gathered up what belongings he had, buying what he thought he might need, and after three days of preparation, set off from Verbobonc.

He arrived in the small town of Hommlet, secure in the knowledge that he would not be pursued. He thought he knew which "Someone" was chasing him, and if his thoughts proved correct, that "Someone" wouldn't venture outside of his comfortable town to find a minor thief. Upon arriving in Hommlet, Toriah realized that he did not have the skill or means to support himself through the less-than-legal means he was used to, particularly since the town was so much smaller than Verbobonc. He hired on with The Welcome Wench and Terrigan's and finally settled on Telna's Kitchen, working as a general laborer. A few months after he started, he approached the owner with a proposition: he would take one night off a week from laboring to dance inside for the customers. The owner looked Toriah up and down, laughed to himself, and agreed. Since then, Toriah has spent a night or two every week entertaining--fairly successfully--at Telna's. He retained the grace of his mother's Rhenne heritage and in some ways, this dancing connects him with her.

Toriah has been inducted into the Temple Raiders of Olidammara.

Toriah's Family Tree

Toriah doesn't know much about his family. The information below is based on what he knew when his parents left him (10 years ago). It's possible they have all passed on, or have all had multiple children and marriages. As far as he knows, he has no siblings.

Mother: Lanya (Rhenne)
Mother's parents: Allena & Derrick (Rhenne)
Mother's siblings: 2 brothers, 1 sister (Rhenne)

Father: Ivellian (half-elven, ancestry uncertain)
Father's parents: 1 full-blood elf, 1 human of uncertain ancestry
Father's siblings: Rhiannon (older sister) (half-elven, ancestry uncertain)

Create/Destroy Water (Sp): Utreshimon can use this ability three times per day. It works like create water, except that he can decide to destroy water instead of creating it, which automatically spoils unattended liquids containing water.

This ability is the equivalent of a 1st-level spell.
Blindsense (Ex): Utreshimon can pinpoint creatures within a distance of 60 feet. Opponents he can’t actually see still have total concealment against him.

Quills (Ex): A howler's neck bristles with long quills. While biting, the creature thrashes about, striking with 1d4 of them. An opponent hit by a howler's quill attack must succeed on a DC 20 Reflex save or have the quill break off in his or her flesh. Lodged quills impose a –1 penalty on attacks, saves, and checks per quill. The save DC is Dexterity based.

Anyone within hearing range of a howler for a full hour must succeed on a DC 15 Will save or take 1 point of Wisdom damage. The save DC is Charisma-based. The save must be repeated for each hour of exposure. This is a sonic mind-affecting effect.

Description: Rowena is active and alert. She has reddish brown hair, and pale, freckled skin.

Background: Rowena was born the only daughter of The Lord Mayor of Elredd, on the wild coast, in CY 570. Her three older brothers each was destined for a post in the government, but Rowena’s best hope was being assigned a husband who wouldn’t beat her. Her eldest brother, Sigmund, was a redoubtable warrior, 10 years her senior. He second and third brothers, Karl and Dane turned out to be more of playboys. When the wild coast was attacked by the forces of the Pomarj, she didn’t recognize the danger, and didn’t flee in time. The Elredd militia was no match for the orcs hoards, and Rowena was captured. She endured a brutal, harrowing week in captivity. Then one night, she was shaken awake. It was no brutal orc shake, but the gentle touch of love. Looking up, there was her eldest brother Sigmund. He had escaped the battle, hidden in the Suss forest, and now returned to rescue her. After a week of hunger and fear, slipping through orc patrols, they escaped to Verbobonc, where her brother Karl and others of the court had fled. Her parents and Dane had been killed in the battle and subsequent slaughter.

Having escaped, she realized the worst of it. She was pregnant. Young, foolish, and full of shame, she concealed her condition as long as possible. Finally, she knew the baby would come soon. Unable to face her family, she took a horse and fled the city.

She fled to the only safe place she could think of, a monestary of Heironeous outside of town. There she arrived, anonymous, and took refuge for the last few days of her pregnancy. She had come to the right place. Trained midwives prepared her, the coaxed her through the hard labor. A cleric healed her tears afterwards. The baby’s head was large, and the labor difficult, but the result was a healthy half orc boy. She pushed the baby away, and refused to name him. But the midwives insisted she nurse the child, for otherwise, he would die.

Rowena stayed at the Monestary for the next two years. She told no one her real name, referring to herself only as Torn. She nursed her child, and slowly came to love him, eventually naming him Dane, after her dead brother. But she was full of shame and had no desire to see her family. Yet one day, there was a knock on the door of her small chamber, and she opened it to see her beloved brother Sigmund. He had tracked her down after nearly a year of searching. She embraced him and eventually told him everything. Sigmund was a capable warrior, and a fair minded and responsible man. He had risen high in the Verbobonc military, and was now a captain, in charge of supply and support. Her other brother, Karl, had not come along so well. Unable to turn his life around after losing his wealth and position, he had turned to drink, and only held onto a guard position in the army by Sigmund’s good word.

One such group of adventurers invited Torn to travel with them on a quest to recover a kidnapped ambassador. The ambassador had been sent to the Kron Hills, to mediate on tax matters between the Gnomes and the town council of Verbobonc.

Besides Torn, the party of adventurers consisted of:

Jurrikath Musseloto: Male Human Swordsman, Mage, Rogue, and gregarious teller of tales.

Kerry, Radiant Vigil: Male Human Knight of the Watch (worshipper of Heironeous)

Tymerian: Female Human Wizard and owner of a Flying Carpet.

Vister: Female Elven (Olven) Knight of the High Forest (Knight of the Hart).


Vister tracked the ambassador’s party until they found the spot where it was ambushed by a horde of orcs. Vister then followed the tracks of the orcs until it led to Mount Stalagos.

Tymerian flew over the Mountain and reported that there was a dark tower in the center of the crater. The party decided to use Tymerian’s flying carpet to fly to the center of the crater and defeat the owner of the black tower.

Unfortunately, the plan led to disaster.

When the flying carpet descended upon the dark tower, terrible lightning bolts flashed up at the party from the sides of the crater. Huge flying creatures raced towards the flying carpet. Finally, Tyermian lost control of the carpet before she could place the carpet down next to the Tower.

Instead of a gentle landing, the party was scattered when the carpet upturned and crashed upon the hard volcanic ground. The flying creatures left the party alone and returned to their nests in the volcanic cliffs above.

Terrible undead creatures attacked the party members. Kerry, Radiant Vigil of the Knights of the Watch refused to flee. He fought the undead until they destroyed him. The rest of the party fled from the undead in every direction.

Torn and the others (except for poor Kerry) were captured by living servants of the evil cult.

Torn was separated from the others. She was tortured both night and day and remembers little of her torment. She does remember is that they wanted her to turn aside from her worship of Heironeous. They wanted her to worship the Gods of evil and dedicate herself to evil deeds.

Torn resisted their conversion attempts.

A bald, short, and over-weight evil cultist with a dark goatee became her chief tormenter (the other cultists call him ‘high priest’). He wore ochre robes with a long silver sash. He worn a symbol around his neck of three black triangles inside another triangle. The High Priest promised Torn that she would convert. Her mind was ravaged by an tentacled alien creature. She lost all of her memorized spells. Every secret she knew was revealed to her captors. Torn’s tormentors taunted her with the facts that they knew her worse nightmares.

The cultist with the goatee handed Torn over to another cultist, a woman named Choranth with long blonde hair, woven with feathers and small animal bones. She wore ochre colored robes with a silver sash and a black cape.

Choranth laughs as she taunts Torn, “You will beg to be allowed to worship our demonic masters. You will curse Heironeous with your every breath. But before that, you will be used and abused by the orcs you escaped when you were younger. Your every nightmare will come true in this place.”

Torn’s hands were shackled behind her back. She is roughly escorted by Choranth, a brutish orc, four gnolls, and four cave bear skeletons.

Appearance: Craven is tall and well-muscled, his face chiseled, with a firm, cleft chin and a proud beaky nose. He wears a neat goatee and moustache, and keeps his blonde hair cut short. His face is often neutral of expression, showing neither happiness nor fear, almost to the point of being habitually mask-like. When expecting trouble, he wears a suit of scale mail, otherwise he wears clean traveling clothes of buff and tan. He keeps a dagger in his belt at all times, and carries his favorite warhammer when permissible.

Personality: Craven often tries to master his expression and voice to avoid betraying his true feelings. Those who have just met him might get the impression that he is rather stoic and stiff. With close friends or family he will show a smile, but with anyone else he tends to be reserved, unwilling to let too many get under his skin, for fear of what they might find there.

Background: Craven’s life started out rather inauspiciously, actually starting with his great grandfather Orwal. Orwal was a priest of St. Cuthbert who led a group of adventurers to destroy a small orc tribe that had been plaguing Hommlet. However, the battle was close, and Orwal was captured by the tribe’s shaman. Knowing that he could not expect to survive, the shaman chose to curse Orwal’s line rather than just kill him.

In a frantic ceremony, the shaman cursed Orwal’s third generation. “Your firstborn son will share your god’s worst vice, cowardice. The stain upon your family name will never be erased.” In a final gesture of defiance, the shaman immolated himself along with all of his articles of power, leaving Orwal alive. Orwal tried to dismiss the curse from his mind, but it lingered, through his marriage, the marriage of his daughter, and the birth of their firstborn son. He had told his family of the curse, and in defiance of the curse, Lilinda named her son Craven.

However, the curse was not dismissed from Craven’s mind, even if outwardly he wore the cowardly name as a badge of courage. Often he heard the tales of glorious battle from the elders of the community, and outwardly he praised them, but inwardly he was relieved that he hadn’t had to do them, for her was certain that he would have run away or surrendered. Most of his dreams were filled with thoughts of cowardice, of men that ran instead of fought, who escaped instead of dying.

In as much defiance as his parents, Craven began training as a warrior, and found a calling in the Church of St. Cuthbert, a god of stoicism and protection. Certainly within such a church his mental cowardice could be trained away. He learned the art of weaponsmithing and armor-making, as well as the use of both of the things he made. Preferring the solidity of a warhammer to the mace, he chose to use one in the service of his god, becoming ordained as a paladin and knight.

Proudheart is a family name, bestowed seven generations before by a grateful noble. Craven's many-times-great-grandfather was a squire in his service, and had just achieved his knighthood when the noble's cousin was kidnapped. Many experienced knights went to rescue her, and were unsuccessful. The young knight was eager to prove his worth, and proud of his abilities, and promised to deliver the noble's cousin to him. Despite his youth, the noble agreed, for all others had failed, so what harm could come of the boy's attempt?

It took no less than three years for the young knight to track down the cousin's kidnapper. Each time he thought about abandoning his quest, his pride would not let him, and his great love for his lord could not let him rest. Eventually he did find the kidnapper, and dealt justice to him swiftly. He took the lord's cousin home, and the lord bestowed upon him a family name to commemorate his deed. Proudheart, Proud for the pride that refused to let him fail, and heart for the compassion and love that drove him ever onward.

Hommlet, however, is a small town. Great crusades are hard to come by, and even the noblest warrior must make a living. Putting his skills to work in helping supply the temple with weapons, Craven put his skills to work to earn his bread. He moonlights in the Welcome Wench as a peacekeeper, and the temple has him protect travelers on the road to nearby towns, for a suitable donation.

Though Craven has crossed blades with the occasional bandit and been able to do his duty, he has fought down intense surges of fear so great they come close to paralyzing him. Though he has managed to face down human foes and the occasional goblin or orc, he fears his fear will cause him to freeze before the face of any greater evil. His fear feeds upon itself, and he dares not even mention it to his superiors. He cannot even bring himself to pray for courage, believing that any change must come from within.

Family Tree: (P = paternal side, M = maternal side, D = deceased)

Mother – Lilinda (potter)
Father – Trevor (leatherworker for the temple)
(P) Uncle Evan (single)
(P) Uncle Lars (Married Aunt Elanor, had cousins Fredrick and Ingrid)

Sister Jona (younger, 16, married to Rolf, had niece Yeldara; employed as bakers)
Sister Marly (next oldest, 14)
Brother Frex (baby, died year after Jona was born, of fever)

Craven has a good relationship with his family, though he has kept a bit of distance with his parents since he joined the temple. He hopes to keep them from knowing his inner heart by pledging his duty to keep him from home. However, he does try to take care of his sister Marly from time to time. Of all those in his family, only she has some knowledge of how he feels, and she would not reveal his secret for the world. He knows soon she will marry, and is carefully screening all potential suitors. If anyone dares break her heart, they will face the full force of Craven’s anger.

Background
Toriah had lived in Verbobonc until a few years ago. His mother was a Rhenne and his father was a half-elven man she met in the town. The two settled in long enough for Toriah to grow up a bit, but in his thirteenth year they left, following the call of the river and further adventure. He never saw them again, though he listened to every bit of gossip that came in. Some days he wished they were dead, upset for leaving him, and some days he hoped they were out there still, amassing their fortunes. He has pretty much given up hope that they are going to return to him, but that possibility has crossed his mind once or twice.

When they left him, he had a decent education and the attractiveness of a half-elf in a mostly human town. However, restless and angry after his parents' departure, he dropped their surname and took to petty thievery. His parents had left him a small inheritance with a neighbor, who was to hold it until he came of age. He spent several weeks with the neighbor, until the disillusionment of being abandoned by his parents drove him into the streets, where he commenced his petty larceny. A minor figure in the local Thieves' Guild took Toriah in and taught him a few basic skills. After some time scraping by and paying dues to the Guild, Toriah struck out on his own, leaving the Guild with no hard feelings between them.

He spent a few years on his own, cheating and swindling the upright citizens of Verbobonc until he received an unsigned message from a friend in the Guild. Leave town, it read. You've well and truly done it now, and you've seriously annoyed Someone Important. I don't know who or how. Insider in the constabulary told me you should have a week, but I wouldn't outstay my welcome if I were you. Toriah was not alarmed, having been in tight places with the law before, but he was smart enough to heed the anonymous message. He returned to the neighbor, who was shocked to see him, having resigned himself to watching the boy--now a man--remain a criminal for the rest of his days. Toriah thanked him for his care and his concern, received what was left of the inheritance (some of it having been used already, for Toriah's care while living with the neighbor, who had been scrupulously good about keeping it), gathered up what belongings he had, buying what he thought he might need, and after three days of preparation, set off from Verbobonc.

He arrived in the small town of Hommlet, secure in the knowledge that he would not be pursued. He thought he knew which "Someone" was chasing him, and if his thoughts proved correct, that "Someone" wouldn't venture outside of his comfortable town to find a minor thief. Upon arriving in Hommlet, Toriah realized that he did not have the skill or means to support himself through the less-than-legal means he was used to, particularly since the town was so much smaller than Verbobonc. He hired on with The Welcome Wench and Terrigan's and finally settled on Telna's Kitchen, working as a general laborer. A few months after he started, he approached the owner with a proposition: he would take one night off a week from laboring to dance inside for the customers. The owner looked Toriah up and down, laughed to himself, and agreed. Since then, Toriah has spent a night or two every week entertaining--fairly successfully--at Telna's. He retained the grace of his mother's Rhenne heritage and in some ways, this dancing connects him with her.

Toriah has been inducted into the Temple Raiders of Olidammara.

Toriah was slain by a group of skeletal dire bears under the command of the evil cultist Choranth of the Air Temple. Toriah was reincarnated and came back as a goblin.
