Background:
Welcome, me lady!. Welcome to me humble establishment! What might I …
Nay, me lady, unfortunately not! I’ve never heard of someone called “Thaern Zorus”. Might I inquire what kind of …
Oh no, me lady! A THIEF! Never would I …
Thank you, me lady. Truly, seldom is my work is appreciated in such a generous …
Ah, yes. It has just occurred to me that I actually might have heard of someone who calls himself “Thaern”, though he’s certainly no thief. More of a specialist-for-hire, if you know what I mean.
Anyway, this “Thaern” ’s arrived here some time ago. Came from Sufford, or so he says. He’s actually said to have studied with a wizard there, perhaps an esteemed colleague of me lady?
No, me lady, most certainly not! I never meant to ...
Yes ..., yes, of course. Unfortunately I do not know how get hold of him.
No, no. Me memory is quite clear on this. It's just that ...
Please, me lady, might I suggest a visit to the Bazaar? There is a seer there by the name of Mareille who ...
No, I would never think of mocking you, me lady! But I would never think her to be a charlatan with so many stories told 'round here by those whom she did help.
Anyway, it is said, that if someone wants to speak to this "Thaern" you should mention it to Mareille and he will find you.
How generous, how very, very generous, me lady! One last bit of advice, though:
Should you ever happen to talk to this "Thaern", please be aware that he despises anything that has to do with magic. Not that he fears it, of course, he will tell you how he stood up to one of the greatest mages of Sufford and walked away laughing, the wizard's impotent magic not even able to touch him.
Oh, and you'd better not say anything if his hair suddenly changes its colour from green to blue. That's totally normal; it just happens from time to time.
While anything but a connoisseur of the finer arts, Thaern has nevertheless decided to grace the concierto of maestro Mintwhistle with his presence. The main reason for this decision was the assurance from several sides that "hot elven music chicas" would be present. Besides, there might always be the chance for this or that piece of jewelry to find a new owner.
Description:
At 5'10" and a weight of 132 lbs. Thaern moves deliberately and quite gracefully, except where ceiling heights are concerned. Reason for this is the growth spurt he's undergone recently which took him from 5'3" to his present height. Since he actually prefers to stay on roofs or other high points, this seldom constitutes a problem. Thaern usually wears the hood of his outfit to cover his green (sometimes blue) hair, his striking grey eyes glittering out of its shadow. While considered handsome by many, first impressions are often marred by his (self-imposed) need to project a 'tough' image.
Item(s) of importance: "Left" and "Right". Two shortswords of unusual and foreign design, the pragmatically named blades were given to Thaern by Dunakhaz Forgeborn as an anticipated birthday present, though he himself does not even know the exact date. Both blades are made from an (to most) unknown dull black metal that doesn't reflect any light and should, according to their creator, never, ever need sharpening.
Important person #1: The dwarven warrior-priest Dumakhaz Forgeborn. One of the few mountain dwarves to leave his home, Dumakhaz acted as second foster-father for Thaern, after the man who previously filled the role, Sharik Swiftleg, was brutally murdered. Contrary to his predecessor, however, he did his best to educate young Thaern about a life outside and above his chosen profession. His own doings shrouded in mystery, Dumakhaz seemed to have some knowledge about the secrets connected with Thaern's (alleged) natural father. His sudden disappearance from Sufford hit Thaern rather hard.
Important person #2: The young elven mage Sertarius Thanas. Thaern's main (perceived) rival for the affections of the gypsy seer Mareille.
Important place #1: The "Mad Mage's Abode". The city residence (villa/fortress) of the crazy (and curiously absent as of late) wizard Alars Zalazem would be a prime target if not for its magic defenses. Thaern's one try to break into it ended rather tragically.
Important place #2: The Bazaar. This "market" in Old Tharokas could be considered Thaern's home ground where he spends most of his time. The main reason for him feeling at home here is probably that it reminds him of better times at Dumakhaz's forge in Sufford. Many who have their shops / stalls here recognize him at least by name.
Important place #3: The "Waterfront". Thaern's favorite inn. Though home to a rather tough crowd, he is rarely bothered despite his youth.

Total 165.5 62Roland was born into a family of humans in the Elven town of Floodrun. His family were descendants of humans who had remained in the once-human town. Growing up in an Elven village, Roland had many elven friends took on many elven ways.
When he was young, Roland joined teh local guard. He occastionally did battle with lizard men and gnolls who raided the town. After demonstrating himself to be a skilled archer and woodsman, he took part in some forays into the swamps against the lizard men. During these raids Roland honed his skills on tracking and hunting the reptilian lizard men.
Roland is in Torakas having just arrived leading a convoy of merchants and nobles from Floodrun.
One of Roland's most valued items is a simple necklace which belonged to an aunt who was killed in a lizard man raid. He constantly wears it.
Roland is a mildly religious man and finds peace in the modest shrine to ______ (to be decided, while be a deity appropriate for a NG Ranger) in Floodrun. He goes there mainly to contemplate, not out of religious devotion.
Roland is a close friend to a local half-elven druid named Ehlissa. He frequently visits her grove not far from Floodrun.

Traubon Mithrilaxe was raised in the tradition of the mountain dwarves, as any of his other kin was. However, throughout his life, he felt that something was missing - he was listless, restless, and knew that there had to be more to life. Unlike his friends, he saw little point in pursuing the arts of metalworking. Religion gave him no comfort.
Something did interest him, however - and that was magic. He was tutored under an old dwarven sage, who taught him in the manner he had been, focusing in protective magic and ignoring spells involving trickery and death. His father disapproved of his choice, however, and began drilling combat and weaponry into Traubon's mind; thus the young dwarf developed affinity both for the weaponry and magic of his kind.
Still, however, his life seemed... unfocused. He had gained much skill in his life, but to what end? Knowing that there must exist something outside of his mountain home, Traubon left his family and clan, going to the world of the surface. There, he decided, he would find the purpose to his life.
It has been seven months, and he has not found what he is looking for. Patient as a rock, however, he knows that he will find it eventually. In the meantime, however, he is trying to understand the strange world of the surface... hearing rumor of a concert being held, he decided that he would attend, and get a taste of the music of this strange new place. Perhaps he would find his purpose there...
Important Things
Item: Traubon is attached to his spellbook, a gift to him from the sage who taught him. Handed down through the generations of the dwarven spellcasters of his clan, it is an important heirloom.
People: Though he and his father do not see eye-to-eye, Traubon does care for his father. Also, the aged sage who taught him is important to him, as he is who enlightened Traubon and set him on his path of self-discovery, though he didn't know it.
Places: Like any dwarf, Traubon considers his homeland to be of great importance. Also, he has grown attached to the inn he has stayed at several times throughout his trek through the world of the surface, and he has begun to recognize the people there, and they him.

Background: "Seamus Shadowstep" started life as Seamus Digby, the youngest of a large Canis family barely paying the rent in the Lower Commons. When Seamus was 4, his father was run over by an Elven noble's carriage speeding on its way to a party. Seamus still has a red silk handkerchief, stitched with a script "A", that the carriage left in its wake. Bereft of its breadwinner, the family was forced to move into Old Tharokas, where Seamus quickly learned the arts of thievery and fast talk to help his family survive.
Several years later, Seamus's mother scraped together enough silver to pay an apprentice fee to Fiomir Halig, an elven clockmaker in the Lower Commons. Halig treated his gears far better than his apprentices, so in his spare time Seamus cultivated the friendship and tutelage of Lucan Elmbranch, an elven toymaker of generous spirit.
Once Halig discovered where his apprentice was stealing off to, he terminated Seamus's apprenticeship early. Lucan would take him on if he could, but he is too poor to support an apprentice, even though Seamus is fascinated with mechanical toys and has nimble fingers.
Seamus now spends much of his time learning from Lucan and helping to sell the old man's toys. Much of the time the toys don't sell, though, and Lucan is an elf of little means. So Seamus often finds his next meal the hard way, and if not all the money he gives Lucan is from a sale, what he doesn't know won't hurt him.
When he gets a bit of extra gold, or is brave enough to sneak in, he attends concerts and magic shows in University Ward. Tonight he plans to attend Calan Mintwhistle's concert at the Recital Hall. He doesn't have the money, but he knows a back way in that has worked before. The view isn't much from behind a wall, but the acoustics are actually quite good.
Item of importance: Red silk handkerchief with script "A."
Important person #1: Lucan Elmbranch, elf toymaker.
Important person #2: Aston Morwin, canis wizard friend.
Important place #1: Lucan's shop in Lower Commons.
Important place #2: Crossroads in Lower Commons where father died.

Background: "Seamus Shadowstep" started life as Seamus Digby, the youngest of a large Canis family barely paying the rent in the Lower Commons. When Seamus was 4, his father was run over by an Elven noble's carriage speeding on its way to a party. Seamus still has a red silk handkerchief, stitched with a script "A", that the carriage left in its wake. Bereft of its breadwinner, the family was forced to move into Old Tharokas, where Seamus quickly learned the arts of thievery and fast talk to help his family survive.
Several years later, Seamus's mother scraped together enough silver to pay an apprentice fee to Fiomir Halig, an elven clockmaker in the Lower Commons. Halig treated his gears far better than his apprentices, so in his spare time Seamus cultivated the friendship and tutelage of Lucan Elmbranch, an elven toymaker of generous spirit.
Once Halig discovered where his apprentice was stealing off to, he terminated Seamus's apprenticeship early. Lucan would take him on if he could, but he is too poor to support an apprentice, even though Seamus is fascinated with mechanical toys and has nimble fingers.
Seamus now spends much of his time learning from Lucan and helping to sell the old man's toys. Much of the time the toys don't sell, though, and Lucan is an elf of little means. So Seamus often finds his next meal the hard way, and if not all the money he gives Lucan is from a sale, what he doesn't know won't hurt him.
When he gets a bit of extra gold, or is brave enough to sneak in, he attends concerts and magic shows in University Ward. Tonight he plans to attend Calan Mintwhistle's concert at the Recital Hall. He doesn't have the money, but he knows a back way in that has worked before. The view isn't much from behind a wall, but the acoustics are actually quite good.
Item of importance: Red silk handkerchief with script "A."
Important person #1: Lucan Elmbranch, elf toymaker.
Important person #2: Aston Morwin, canis wizard friend.
Important place #1: Lucan's shop in Lower Commons.
Important place #2: Crossroads in Lower Commons where father died.

Background:
Aston Morwin grew up in a pleasant house in the University Ward along with his two sisters and brother. His mother died when he was a year old, leaving his father (a professor of divination at the Imperial University) to bring up the family alone. Aston's oldest sister took over the role of housekeeper, while Aston himself took the position of apprentice to his father. He proved an able student, although his own skills seem lead him towards conjuration as opposed to his father's own speciality.
As a part of what his father regarded to be a well rounded education, Aston has been attending concerts for years. At one of these events, he ran into another young Canis by the name of Seamus. Aston's sheltered upbringing had given him little time to meet with others of his own age, so Seamus proved welcome company. The two of them have become good friends, and Aston has planned to arrive at the concert hall early to help Seamus break into the prestigious Mintwhistle concert to be held this evening.
Item of importance: A necklace of wooden beads given to Aston by his father after the first year of his apprenticeship. Each of the beads is carved with a symbolic representation of a plane. As a whole, it represents all of the planes of existence. The bead representing the plane of air is worn nearly smooth, as Aston habitually rubs it when he is nervous.
Important persons #1: All of the Morwin family, but in particular the younger of his two sisters, Jalila.
Important person #2: Seamus Shadowstep, a roguish young Canis, and Aston's partner in crime.
Important place #1: The Walker's Rest, a small tavern close to the University.
Important place #2: The Aston residence, a well appointed house in the University Ward.
