Odd Will

Odd Will is an older human male that lives on the edge of the settlement. He chops wood in the winter and gathers a few usable plants in the warmer months. He also does a bit of trapping. I'd consider him a 2 - 3 level Ranger, maybe with a Skill Focus in Trapmaking. The local kids are convinced he is involved with some shady type of business and uses his frequent trips into the forest as "cover". He has a lazy eye and is very sensitive about it. This doesn't help his social interaction. So, the question is, what is he up too?

Is he just a woodsy type of fellow?

Smuggler?

Does he have dealings with the Fey? Good Fey or Bad Fey?

Is he actually harmless or does he pose a danger to the village?

Stonefiddle and Dundiddle, young Gnomes, low level Fighters, expert stone masons. Both of them carve chess pieces from marble to make money on the side, and have a weakness for blancmange, Corinthian leather, and prepubescent dwarves.

Iaeun Parsleystaff, young Hobbit, low lvl Rogue, expert chef. Traveled to afar to the lands of the Japanese Elves where he became an Elf-Friend and mastered such exquisite dishes as Sashimi ala Galadriel, Sindan Sushi alla Truffe, and Chicken Karaoke. Returning on ship, he was kidnapped by Pirates, sold into slavery to Visigothic Orcs, then liberated by a legion of Mexican Dwarves, and lived with them for a couple of years, learning their cuisine of slow-cooked clay pit dishes like Chilli Con Borrego, Culo de Perro Mole, and Leche de Toro soup. He hopes one day to be called to the city of Greyhawk to participate at their annual Iron Chef Middle Earth Festival.

Hendar, Human Male, level 2 expert

One of the older townsfolk, Hendar is hairless on his head and has two jagged scars behind his right ear. A grim and usually silent man, he is still very useful to the town as one of their most diligent workers and knowledgeable farmers.
Hendar is unusual in that he only works during the night. Severe head injuries from a farm accident when he was a youth means that he is now pained by the strong light of the day and prefers to be active during the night. He is often found out and about in the fields after dark with a magical light which never ceases, working the land and keeping watch for night-time dangers from the lands around.
