Message: <blockquote data-quote="Whizbang Dustyboots" data-source="post: 2630810" data-attributes="member: 11760">Russell Bailey, Bailiff of MaidensbridgeMale Neutral Good human expertBailey has served as bailiff of Maidensbridge for 30 years, and his father was bailiff before him and his grandfather before that. The youngest of seven brothers, he is well-liked and respected in the community, and he is a known advocate of the commoners of Maidensbridge with the baron.Despite being in his early 50s, Bailey still has a full head of curly bright orange/red hair, a trait he shares with his siblings and children. (Unbeknownst to him, his youngest son, the seventh of seven boys, is a sorcerer and will begin manifesting magical abilities before his 13th birthday.) He otherwise looks his age (and well-fed) and relies on a walking stick when traveling around Maidensbridge. He dresses simply but well.Bailey has an excellent knowledge of the barony, especially Maidensbridge (Knowledge: Local), but what really makes him effective as bailiff is his ability to work with people (Diplomacy, Sense Motive). His temperament mirrors that of the baron: He is more interested in the good of the barony's subjects than of the barony itself, although he knows the two are linked. But while Steward Thoric Glangirn has to put up with this attitude from the baron, he has been known to clash with Bailey for the same sort of attitude, taking out his frustrations on the human. Despite this, Bailey enjoys his job, and the hamlet remains prosperous and productive, although he is growing concerned about the security of Maidensbridge, now that the Green Mountain kobold tribes are reunited under a single leader.Bailey is easy to talk to, and listens more than he talks. He is loath to issue orders or commands, but he knows he speaks with the authority of the baron, and will do so when he has to. He knows nearly everyone in Maidensbridge and many of those in Midwood Hall as well.While out for a walk one night, after a long bad day had left him too tense to sleep, he saw something down by the shore of the Moss River that he suspects was a river troll. As yet he's not confident enough to speak up about it -- it was very dark, and he is somewhat embarrassed about his failing eyesight and hearing -- but as soon as evidence of a new group of scrags living in Moss Pond reaches his ears, he will speak up and corroborate the rumors.When he thinks, he has a habit of tapping his walking stick between his feet.</blockquote>
