Personality: He shows great sympathy to all travelers. He's the type to buy drinks and listen to their stories. Quarion is a bit of a follower. Usually he is manipulated by his sisters into helping them out, but recently he has become more of a free agent.

History: The child of a Locksmith, who enjoyed hunting, Quarion was taken on many hunting expeditions. When he was little, his rather wealthy family often ventured across the island 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 island due to the painful memories there. Quarion took refuge in the large cave and found the beat up quarterstaff and armor he uses now.
