Description: This man is very fat, and wears a shirt that is too small, which lets his gut show, with a ratty tan coat over it. He has a long white beard with little hanging trinkets. His eyes are a pleasant blue.

Personality: He is quiet and unassuming. He ignores others and carries on with his job unassumingly. His actions favor neither the good nor the evil, as he answers to a power that mortal men fail to acknowledge.

History: He was a bastard born out of an affair, and his father always resented and mistreated him for it out of spite. He inherited a moderately successful company from his father. Under his leadership it has flourished, and using capital from his venture he effectively owns an entire region. He knows his nephew is from a royal line that had remained secret for centuries, but promised not to tell anyone. So far, no-one knows but him.

Motivation: He's repulsed by the PC; and he has a rivalry with the church that dominates his actions

Flaws: Ugly, Antagonistic. Bonds: Job, Religious, Rich. Occupation: Locksmith

Voice: Squeaky

Possessions: 6000 sp.

Description: With green face paint in a stripe pattern across her face, she wears tight fighting clothing, which leaves very little to the imagination. Her hair is long and red with streaks of black, and is pulled back with small brown clips. Her gray eyes are passionate and lively.

Personality: She is very quiet and rarely speaks above a whisper. Her respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to her, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, she tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in her reactions to snap at those who irritate her, Agnes is combative with any and all who dare try her patience in the slightest.

History: Agnes hails from a village terrorized by illithids. She found a children's book about a Human Paladin who fought for good and justice and never realised it was just a child's story. She modeled her life after the story, seeing herself destined a hero. She has taken up leadership of the village's small militia in response to illithids demanding more tribute than usual.

Motivation: A need for knowledge about a nearby landmark; and a deep hatred of illithids

Ideals: Fighting, Justice. Flaws: Shy. Bonds: Enemies, Adventurer. Occupation: Bather

Voice: Boston accent

Possessions: 700 gp.

Description: This man is tall and muscular. He typically wears a sleeveless long coat of deep white leather and dull brown iron scale mail. His hair is always cut to a buzz. His blue eyes lackadaisically let the world flow into them.

Personality: He cares much about the opinion of others, both in good and in bad: when keeping in line with his opinion, he thinks highly of the other person, but when opinions clash, he can get violently argumentative. His philosophy is that everyone needs a friend and as such shows hospitality towards all.

History: Gifted from a young age, Adam studied abroad. When he came of age, he joined a caravan that would eventually take him to the capital. He would practice along the way and, when he arrived, be apprenticed to a Spy. He ran away from his former home and has been making his living as a Spy for the past few years.

Description: What flesh remains visible is marred by burns. He prefers to wear red clothing when he does not wear armor. His brown hair is lengthy. His green eyes are passionate and lively.

Personality: He is erratic and paranoid. He believes orcs are coming to abduct people. Around other people he will do his best to conceal his emotions and appear jolly.

History: He was born a particularly ugly child, much to the horror of his parents. He has chosen to use the inheritance that was left to him frivolously. When he grew older, he became a bit more civilized, usually hanging around bars and taverns. He began work as a mercenary for hire. He would embark on any mission as long as the price was right.

Motivation: He wants revenge against orcs; and he is greedy
