Smiles was his street name. He hasn't used the name in years but has gone back to it recently(he's always thought of it as his "name" internally in any case).4) His gang crossed the wrong person, and Smiles was arrested. But before he was hung his promise was noted by Bochim Crowder, a high-ranking member of the Gentle Dreams, a spy organization attached to the Order of the Eclipsed Sun.5) Crowder became a mentor to Smiles (not a kind one), training him in infiltration, assassination, and social engineering.6) From his late teens until recently Smiles was a successful agent for the Gentle Dreams working under the code name Joakim.7) His last mission was a rare assignment to work with a foreign contrator, Gwynnwr, on a mission to the city of Tredeshan. There they were to look into the activities of a cult, The Brothers of the Serpent.8) Soon after arriving in Tredeshan, before they began to look into the cult, Smiles and Gwynnwr were betrayed. They went to meet their pre-arranged contact but were ambushed upon arriving, and barely escaped with their lives. They are now afraid to continue their mission with just the two of them, or to return to Taladae, as they do not know how deep the conspiracy goes.9) In the meantime, they start looking for powerful and reliable companions, for protection in numbers, and to look for jobs to apply their special talents. Smiles switches back to using his old moniker. He doesn't believe that anyone else in Gentle Dreams besides his old mentor, Bochim Crowder, would recognize the name now, and holds onto a hope that Crowder will eventually try to contact him.Change log:2003.4.12: Added languages2003.4.29: Updated equipment - stuff picked up</blockquote>
