Description: He is wearing the road beaten gear of a warrior. He is physically well-built. His moppish golden hair is in a traditional bowl cut. His fair skin shows little sign of his aristocratic breeding.

Personality: He has a very dry and sarcastic sense of humor. He is not one for noise or eating so much, which is in direct contrast with his big mouthed big gutted partner. His partner is his best friend in the world. The two are very close despite being more or less each other's opposites. He is always in debt, since he spends his money on lavish parties and gifts for friends

History: He was born to a pair of big game hunters, but was frequently ill as a child. He sought a place where he would be rewarded solely on the merits of his skills. This search led him directly into Beggar work with an outfit from a few towns over. Beggar work suited him well, and with each successful project, he earned more gold and more respect from his peers. During his travels, Raer and his party rested in a cavern that was (unknown to them) infused with powerful dark magic. Upon awakening, Raer discovered the rest of his party dead, transformed into horrible, mindless undead versions of their former selves. Raer fled the cavern, stopping for breath at a small pool, and only then realizing his own horrible transformation.

Motivation: He'd like to take his coworkers down a peg.

Personality: Aggressive, abrasive, and angry, Traki embodies much of what other species detest in the Elves. He never wears the same outfit twice, unless he absolutely has to.

History: Traki hails from a village terrorized by drow. Through the years after Traki was born, his mother became increasingly distant from his family, instead choosing to pursue power in the west.
