Description: This exceptionally lanky man wears a large hat to cast shadows over his face and wears ponchos to better hide his body. With bright white hair and a scraggly beard. Judging by the bloodshot nature of his eyes and the massive bags underneath them one would imagine he has not slept for days.

Personality: He tends to agree with only himself unless someone else's opinion sounds like he can profit from it. He tries to control his temper but he can't always stop himself from what he feels what must be done. He is accommodating to his spouse and as such limits his hospitality. He is brave and levelheaded in the face of danger and has proven himself a capable leader.

History: Born to a pair of adventurers, Nim grew up listening to his mother's many stories. At a young age both his parents were killed in an accident.

He was betrayed by a partner and left for dead, teaching him a humbling lesson in trusting others.

Motivation: To get a good night's sleep; and obtaining odd cultural elven artifacts is his passion

History: He was born into a rich family. He sought a place where he would be rewarded solely on the merits of his skills.
