| Something dire happened in Shyette, something Glyn Trollbane will not speak of. The true tale is one that Glyn will never repeat. The exaggerated tales of bards and performers only tell part of the story. Glyn Dewys entered Shyette and a fierce battle raged, to be certain. But Glyn Trollbane is the one who emerged from the encounter. None stirred to aid the besieged village, but Glyn realized the impact this seemingly insignificant fishing community had on its neighbors. When not even the sellswords would respond to Glyn’s pleas or gold, the young sorcerer went to Shyette himself. Few know the true details of what happened, save for Glyn single-handedly defeating five trolls. Tales of his bravery and derring-do swelled, and the name Trollbane started to appear in the bards’ songs of his deeds. Just a few short years ago, a small band of trolls began to terrorize a fishing village called Shyette. The scar is a constant reminder of the encounter in which Glyn earned his adopted surname, Trollbane. large, milk-white scar traces a wicked path along his jaw line. While the scar would prove a terrible flaw to some, it adds an air of command and resolve to Glyn Trollbane’s otherwise pleasant features. Glyn Trollbane does cut an imposing figure. His frame is lean and short for a human, but Glyn’s handsome bearing and piercing gaze are captivating. A His chiseled features and commanding voice provide sound wisdom, calculated advice, and objective observations. Glyn is not one to use flowery language or wax philosophic about mundane affairs - he has no time to mince words. His mind is set to contemplate higher things. Several of Glyn’s traveling companions say the young mage has an ”old man’s soul” and the savvy presence and experience of a veteran twice his age. And with such power comes dreadful knowledge ofhow that very power manipulates, corrupts, and destroys. Those unused to Glyn Trollbane’s taciturn, stoic manner may find him callous and cold, but that is hardly how those who have come to trust his counsel would define the steely sorcerer. Calculating, direct, brutally honest, and unwaveringly straightforward would be more appropriate. Despite his youth, Glyn Trollbane is already a formidable sorcerer, manipulating the raw power of arcane magic many of his more esteemed wizard counterparts could only dream of. |

| While most of the party members don’t completely trust their kobold guide, they can’t deny the small creature’s formidable skills. While the kobold introduces himself as Ynnenarcturas, descendent of the True Dragons, others have gone to calling him ”Chitter Chatter” for the near endless stream of barely audible mumbling that issues from the kobold’s mouth. Ynnen is always lost in private conversations with himself. The kobold also has the annoying habit of clicking and scraping his teeth when he talks, which unnerves some people when they see the rogue’s sharp teeth. Even for a kobold, Ynnen is small and wiry. His wide, flat scales are deep, brick red, growing slightly lighter orange under his throat and along his chest. The tip of his left ear is missing, a constant reminder of his careless youth. Despite the kobold’s impatience and hyperactive nature most of the time, he has learned his lesson and is meticulous when it comes to searching for traps or other hidden dangers. Ynnen’s recklessness in the past proved beyond a doubt that what you don’t know certainly can kill you. Ynnen is an unending supply of energy, but tends not to be very extroverted or gregarious. The stigma others place on him for being a kobold is bothersome, but Ynnen has learned to accept it after a fashion - after all, he doesn’t trust humans or elves much himself. The long journey to reach the entrance to the Vault has already garnered more than its fair share of unwanted attention and mistrust, and Ynnen has serious doubts any of his newfound ”allies” would come rushing to his aid should some hazard befall him.His enthusiasm for adventure and the promises of riches are tempered only by his instinct of selfpreservation. He yearns to find some clues to the history of dragonkind and his own family’s bloodline. While he takes his role as a guide and trailblazer quite seriously, there is never a question about his most important task - protect his own scales. Despite his skill at keeping the rest of the party alive, he can’t help but feel the others see the diminutive kobold as ”expendable.” |

| Loros began his adventuring career a bit later than most. The son of a minor trade merchant, Loros grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth, and never wanted for food, finery, or entertainment. Upon reaching his twenty-third nameday, his father realized that Loros would never take over the family business. Seeking to find balance and purpose, Loros entered the holy orders and became a cleric. While Loros excelled at his studies, he grew restless in the confines of the temple grounds. Seeing that wanderlust had struck him fiercely, Loros’superiors opened to him a new path - the study and worship of the manifold aspects of the great outdoors, the thrill of the journey. As Loros’ eager mind embraced these teachings, he soon found that training as a ranger meshed well with his religious upbringing. But Loros soon found that life beyond the temples and cities was not as coddling and soft as Loros had so foolishly thought, and the young man’s education to the real world was blunt and harsh. But Loros persevered, and eventually grew to love the outdoors. He never felt as at home anywhere as he did in the midst of the great forests of the realm. He was a quick study with a bow, and became an excellent tracker, as well. Loros soon found reliable employment - and perhaps his true calling - as an escort guiding clergy between holy sites secreted within the heart of the forest. But the forest was thick with dangers, and one day his charges were accosted by a pride of krenshar. Despite Loros’ impressive skills with the bow, the acolytes were overcome. Loros himself took serious wounds, but was able to drive the beasts off. Loros dragged himself to the shrine that had been their destination. He collapsed within the sanctuary, exhausted, whispering prayers to gods he had relied upon during his time with the church. When he awoke, Loros Truebow found himself whole and unmarked, save for a newfound perspective on life and an awakening to a source of strength deep within his soul. Ever since that encounter, Loros has striven to find balance between his study and devotion to both religious matters and the laws of nature. Now Loros travels the realm, savoring freedom. His attitude and decisions may seem chaotic or unpredictable, but Loros has always been one to rely on his luck as well as his aim. Loros is laid back and pleasant, but usually keeps to himself and offers opinions only when they are sought. He is far more at ease in wide open spaces, especially out of doors, and becomes anxious and impatient when cramped in close quarters. |

| Odveck Silverheel, of the High March Silverheels, is the greatest hero of the gnomish people ? or so he’d have you believe. The scrappy gnomish warrior is called Oddwit by those who know him, a testament to his bizarre sense of humor, love of practical jokes, and frequent lack of common sense. Oddwit takes pride in the moniker and relishes the opportunity to share his stories, fictional and otherwise, with any willing to lend an ear. Beneath the devil-may-care attitude and mischievous grin, though, lies the heavy heart of a veteran. Oddwit makes light of the situation, regardless of how dire it may be, but deep inside he knows the dangers that face adventurers as himself. Despite his short stature and carefree demeanor, Oddwit sees himself as a surrogate father of sorts to some of the younger adventurers, and has found himself assuming responsibility for their well-being. Oddwit may very well be one of the better read and educated warriors encountered, and sometimes he curses his upbringing for making him abundantly aware of just how dangerous life can be - but his cunning and intelligence serve him well on the field of battle. His myriad talents sometime make it difficult for Oddwit Silverheel to decide how he can best serve the group. He is a savvy fighter and proudly bears the sword Searing Kiss, a gift from his father. While backing down from a challenge has never been his strong suit, Oddwit is experienced enough to know that sometimes caution truly is the better part of valor, and he looks for opportunities to use his inspirational chants and hymns to bolster his party’s abilities. Oddwit is sturdily built, and were it not for his cleanshaven face, might be mistaken for a skinny dwarf instead of a well-muscled gnome. His thick, black hair is curly, but already wisps of grey are creeping into his temples. Oddwit’s eyes glint of mischief, and he’s always turning something over in his mind ? numbers, dates, historical events, or tactical maneuvers. |

| The surly dwarf known as Ubo Gutrot has a long and storied past - one he’s not likely to share with you until he’s seen how you handle yourself in battle. Ubo is as thick as a tree stump, and some would argue not quite as bright. His face and arms are heavily scarred from endless years of fighting for survival in the wilds or raising his sword in service of those he deems worthy. While it may be difficult to earn Ubo Gutrot’s trust, once gained it is even more difficult to lose - Ubo is willing to die for those he considers friends, and has risked his own life countless times to help those he trusts. A thick matt of greasy hair sits atop his wide, flat head - once remarked to look like an anvil by a boisterous drunkard (who, much to the drunkard’s chagrin, soon realized just how hard-headed Ubo could be). Several simple rings adorn Ubo’s nose and ears, with more intricate rings and jewelry woven into his thick, shaggy moustache and beard. A large tattoo of a cat’s eye covers the back of each of his gnarled hands, which Ubo swears help him sense danger a split second earlier than his comrades - and the dwarf’s uncanny reactions quell any thoughts otherwise. Ubo prides himself on his unusual armor - made from the thick, calloused hide of a dire rhinoceros he slew with naught but a simple handaxe, to hear him tell the tale. He swears the moon and stars bore witness to his great feat, and blessed him with a hide that was near impenetrable, and which bore a portion of the rhinoceros’ own fury. His favorite tactic in combat is much like that of the animal whose hide he wears - charge into the heart of the fray, and once there, let lay a swath of deadly steel among his enemies. And deadly steel it truly is. The greatsword Ubo Gutrot wields is a massive weapon with wicked, barbed serrations and numerous blood channels forged along its blade. No one knows how the sword came to earn its name Forsaken, nor how the sword came into Ubo’s possession. Of all his exploits and adventures, which can be bribed from the dwarf with sizeable amounts of strong ale, the tale of his Forsaken blade is one he has yet to share. |

| Veriander is a relatively young adventurer, but has made considerable progress in her short career. The half-elf’s genial nature and charming smile have allowed her to win over even the most seasoned, grizzled veterans. In addition, her healing skills and devotion to the causes of good have proven invaluable. Veriander is proud of her mixed heritage. She has the slender, attractive elven features of her mother, and the stubborn resolve and determination of her father. Long, auburn curls highlight a smooth, age-less face. She is outgoing, friendly, and has the exuberance of youth. Veriander Lyras may lapse into moments of immaturity or childish behavior, but she’s always focused and serious when it comes to dealing with darkness and death - or more directly, undeath. While Veriander spent a portion of her youth getting into trouble and earning a living through skullduggery, a brush with undead changed her life forever. After returning to her home near the town’s cemetery several years ago, she came upon a horrible scene - her family had been savagely overcome by zombies risen from the nearby graves! Not knowing what else to do, Veriander reached into her backpack (ripe with ill-gotten gains from a night of burglary) and pulled out the first thing her hands fell upon ? a golden sunburst she had filched from the temple. Praying to gods she barely believed in, Veriander was overcome with a rush of euphoria. Divine power channeled through the young half-elf, and the zombies fell before the blazing sunburst held in her outstretched hand. Ever since that fateful night, Veriander has dedicated her life to the ideals and values she discounted in her youth. Her strong faith in the power of good and the radiance of the sun brought a touch of maturity and focus that had been lacking. Veriander is earnest, hopeful, and optimistic - but at times her lack of experience makes her appear gullible or impractical. |
