Since Seonaid asked…
Rowyn’s travels had been pretty limited, because of the dangers on the road. She stayed mostly in one small town, using her bardic performances and charm to gain friends and hopefully learn more of the dangerous events around them. Unfortunately, since it was a small, poor town, and travelers were few, she didn’t earn much money. She did find out bits of information here and there though. Perhaps the most interesting bits were from soldiers, who told her stories about Marcus Dharnan, the missing son and heir of Randal Dharnan. Randal Dharnan is the deceased Duke of Rogan, and was Head of House Dharnan, one of the Five Noble Families of Shillen (The Council of Five).
Marcus is a young man in his mid twenties, just under 6 feet tall, and has his auburn hair cropped short. His face is heavily tanned, and freckled. He enjoyed the soldiering life, and spent much more energy learning about fighting then about diplomacy. He was raised as a soldier, and from a young age served in the Knights of Shillen (under the leadership of the rulling House Zenfan), in Mintra. During the last Gorukan invasion, when Randal Dharnan was slain on the battlefield, Marcus was marching with the Knights out of Mintra to aid them. When news reached them that Duke Randal had been slain, a conflict broke out among Marcus’ Knights and the other Knights. Marcus wanted to continue on, but the commander decided it was too late, and that they should return to Mintra. The Knights returned to Mintra, and Marcus disappeared soon after.
Feel free to embellish your backstory.
Everyone else, don’t hesitate to ask for stuff too
