Background
Stories of far away journeys and flashy magic were the only enticing aspects of Kelkan's boring childhood in a village off most trading ways. Caught by intense wonderlust as a young man, Kelkan left his hometown in the dead of the night, leaving only a vague letter of goodbye to his parents. Kelkan found his way to a large city but the only occupation he found himself hired to was as assistant to a scribe in the lowliest part of the city. After some years there Kelkan was hopelessly bored again and in a daring action, snuck into an old wizard's laboratory. Alerted by his magical wards, and even more so by the sound of broken glassware, the wizard came to the lab to find the young halfling pouring over some notes from his alchemy experiments, pronouncing strange components' names loudly and gesticulating maddly.
When inquired how he had gotten there, Kelkan had the courage to warn the wizard to back away as he was a powerful mage and had teleported to the lab. Amused and intrigued by the small lad, the wizard offered to trade in lore of the arcane with the halfling and managed to trick Kelkan in learning some rudiments of magic before the night was over. Surprised by the youngman's fast learning, the wizard ended the charade by the morning when the guard came, called by the mage the previous night. The aging wizard presented himself to the halfling as Magus Murmur and gave him the option of settling a formal contract of apprenticeship or being hauled over to prison by the guard for entering his lab and damaging his property.
Without much of a choice, Kelkan became Murmur's apprentice and found a harsh, although wise and stimulating master in the arcane arts. After two years of training, Kelkan completed two exploratory quests for his master in company of Murmur's prior apprentice, a young man called Urdran. The quests were only to nearby caves. Finding the mage's ambitions short and himself more than once at odds with Urdan, Kelkan politely left the company of Murmur and sought for another patron.
A young wizard seeking to fill his purse and lusting to brave new lands, Kelkan was pleased of hearing there would soon be a kingdom sponsored recruiting to join the battle at Maissen. Kelkan seized the oportunity and spent two months preparing for the journey, sharpening his senses, studying arcane secrets of subterfuge and awareness.
Finally coming to terms with the selection for a familiar, Kelkan called Nostalgia, a crow, and eargerly studied the elven language with her. Finding his small size and inquisitive nature more appropriate to joining the kingdom's scouts, Kelkan spent the last week before the journey learning to swim. Never would he have expected that skill you be so important.
Kelkan a leather jerkin uder his pitch black robes embroidered with tiny white dots for stars. His long hair is braided into several small strips. Kelkan's skin is naturally tan, and of an ever deeper shade since his recent, long outdoors training. Kelkan likes pies and collects engraved smoking pipes, he dislikes bullies and mistrusts sorcerers. Kelkan has a slight prejudice against half-breeds but tries to avoid generalizing and he has a biased perception of Outsiders as not entirely living, free thinking individuals.
