Description: This exceptionally lanky man likes to wear darkened spectacles and heavy clothing, no matter the weather. His gray fur is braided into rings. His voice is smooth and creepy, always level, but somehow just slightly unnerving.

Personality: He takes his job very seriously, in part because he fears he cannot get a new one. He cannot deal with unfamiliar people for more than a few minutes at a time and if they persist he will grow angry at them.

History: From birth he was tutored by a cruel and relentless mentor. His spouse left him for another, whom he beat to an almost bloody pulp. He did not win them back, but he came to a realization.

Personality: Ishmoz wants to be seen as a stoic, levelheaded, noble Druid, so he tries to act the part. He does a good job, for the most part... His respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to him, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, he tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in his reactions to snap at those who irritate him, Ishmoz is combative with any and all who dare try his patience in the slightest.

History: Born to a poor family in the city he treasured whatever gifts he got. His mother was a soldier and died while he was still young. Ishmoz was left his mother's suit of armor and trained in its use and care. After months of barely getting by, Ishmoz managed to ambush a major caravan with a load of valuables.
