Description: This fat western woman has a bulbous nose and dresses in red turtlenecks beneath a white coat with yellow slacks. Her skin is also unnaturally pale. Her auburn hair is still thick. Judging by the bloodshot nature of her eyes and the massive bags underneath them one would imagine she has not slept for days.

Personality: She is happy with her job as a Bricklayer. She turns her eye from what people do, preferring to live and let live. The war was a terrible time for her, and Vani does not often speak of it. When she does, she does so with a strained expression and tears in her eyes.

History: Riardon lived on a farm with his mother, near the main road leading to a nearby town. When he was little, his rather wealthy family often ventured across the forest to a summer home near a large cave. He would wander through that large cave and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and he was stranded inside. His family spent the next few days looking for him, and could only assume he was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the forest due to the painful memories there. Riardon took refuge in the large cave and found the beat up monstrous two handed axe and armor he uses now. Recently he has begun working with bootleggers and crooks.
