Description: This man is bedraggled and starved. He wears dark leathers with embroidery. He has styled his golden hair well, parting it to the right. He has gleaming, smiling blue eyes.

Personality: He is quiet and reserved most of the time, but warms up to people very quickly. Around friends he is liable to tell dirty jokes and enjoy himself. He invented a lineage for himself and claims to be descended from several legendary heroes.

History: He was born with several neurological imbalances, which makes sleep difficult for him. It may also be what makes him so good at details. He made a point of taking high paying jobs and getting most of it up front. During his travels, Barendd and his party rested in a cavern that was (unknown to them) infused with powerful dark magic. Upon awakening, Barendd discovered the rest of his party dead, transformed into horrible, mindless undead versions of their former selves. Barendd fled the cavern, stopping for breath at a small pool, and only then realizing his own horrible transformation.

History: He was raised in a plains tribe. When he was little, his rather wealthy family often ventured across the plains to a summer home near a old dungeon. He would wander through that old dungeon 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 plains due to the painful memories there.
