Message: <blockquote data-quote="Festy_Dog" data-source="post: 509063" data-attributes="member: 2561">Norri's History:Norri was raised in the King's City by his merchant mother, at the age of 10 his father was killed by a group of hired thugs after he was accused by a noble, Grellt Frelteiner, of pick-pocketing him. Therefore, because Norri was certain his father was innocent, he felt that his father better have died for a reason and decided to deliver to the noble what his father paid for. So he became adept in the arts of a rogue and 10 years after his father's death, to the day, he made his way into Frelteiner's estate and relieved him and his family of a considerable amount of jewellery. His mother wanted nothing to do with the stolen articles when Norri presented them to her, she then promptly kicked him out of the house to go about his own criminal ways. Soon enough the money from the jewellery heist ran out because of the many things he indulged in and the need to constantly change accomodation to avoid Frelteiner's wrath. Soon he began performing burglaries regularly to get money to keep a step ahead of the vengeful noble and his growing mob of vengeful friends. He was hired soon enough by someone who wanted him to go back to Frelteiner's and steal a piece of art from him, because he was one of precious few who knew the interior of the place. Upon infiltration of the manor he discovered to his dismay that he was one of three burglers going for the prize. After one of them managed to talk the other two into splitting the reward three ways they made quick work of the job and retrieved the art easily, but it was only after they had left that Norri had realised a disturbing lack of security. At the trade point they handed over the painting, one of an arcane spellcaster working away in their alchemy lab, to the buyer. The buyer said his boss would be mighty pleased with their work, and asked who's partner the third person was. Upon discovering that the person who'd convinced them to all team up wasn't actually hired for the job they threw a smoke bomb into the middle of the group. At some point someone thrust a painting size object under his arm and thus not wanting to get caught with it he fled, but was tripped by the other hired thief. They scuffled for a moment until they saw the third thief fly by with what looked like the painting in their possession. The second thief instantly jumped up and gave pursuit, soon after followed by the buyer and two bulky goons. Norri, assuming a fake had been on him, picked up the copy of the painting he had and smashed it against a wall in anger. The frame came apart easily and the canvas floated down to his feet, revealing some weird scriblings of some sort all over the back. Norri snickered as he realised the third thief had accidently given him the real one and soon stashed it away, he thought he had better make an offer to them in a few days after things had calmed down. But after a few days there was a price on his head, a big one, and he needed to vacate the city fast. He caught a lift with a gnome who told Norri he could pay him back by assisting in a job when they got to their destination, and that he would explained what he needed Norri to do after they got there. Unfortunately, along the way he lost the painting when he was trying to decipher it while relaxing by a stream, one of the Tusk Brothers ran up and kicked him into it for a lark and the painting floated downstream, paint dispersing into the water as it went. Obviously the gnome didn't live long enough to tell Norri what he wanted done and now Norri's somewhat stranded in the region until he can find some work, he hopes all the people after him won't be able to trace him here, he hopes.........</blockquote>
