[QUOTE="Bobitron, post: 1822037, member: 25479"] Wow, Blue, thanks a bunch for the additional info. I assume most of that is from the Witchfire books? Well, I have some ideas for how each character came to be in Corvis. Eva has a history of acting as a bodygaurd. A well-funded architect, hired by the Corvis to come in and help with the rebuilding of a guildhouse damaged during the troubles, hired her to protect him in this dangerous city. Once there, he was killed in a riot while under her protection, which made it difficult to get another bodygaurd contract. She took the job at Pendrake, excited for the chance for adventure. She has little need for money. Alain has long served as a criminal investigator for the Church, and came to Corvis to help Cygnaran officials look into the arson case that brought the Cathedral to cinders. He has found little information in the month he has been in the City of Ghosts, and while the Church gives him a small stipend each month, it has not been enough to keep his investigation going. He joined Pendrake with hopes of making good use of his investigative skills and still be able to keep a sharp eye out for the arsonist. Calfir needed little provocation to leave Caspia. A short and firey tryst with a rich merchant's wife led to an assassination attempt. After emptying his savings to bribe the would-be killer, he ran to Corvis, hoping to find new opportunities and less knowing eyes. The association with Pendrake is just a job, keeping him funded for his nights on the town. Garrick has a reputation as a fine shot with a rifle, and was hired to help teach marksmanship to the still freshly formed Corvis Guard. He spent a number of weeks training inept youths the value of keeping powder dry and how to reload under pressure, but his dark temperment was not well suited for the task. He noticed the Pendrake job as a way to survive in a new city, his money spent. As I said, I leave it in the party's capable hands to decide what character I play. It would be great if you could let me know today, I could get the character posted by tomorrow. Blue, do you have any more information you can share on Pendrake? [/QUOTE]
