Known Aliases: “X”, “Xavier”

Description: A scholar by profession, Gregory is interested in researching the history of enchanted items. He studies and teaches at one of the oldest schools in Philomath, Tel Lyarthi. Given the lack of interest in learning the history behind the loss of magically enchanted items, he has become a bit cynical towards society and believes himself to be of a more superior intellect than most. Given the lack of funding towards his research, he has had to resort to some unsavory methods to acquire previously magical artifacts.
While extremely intelligent and very passionate about his work, Gregory can be shy and meek around new people, or those who may be physically intimidating.

While the mysterious figure known only as ‘X’ was initially thought to have been been hired to act as an intermediary and messenger of Fool’s March chancellor, Sabre Thornton, it was revealed that he was an irate Serpentwood in disguise. Having had enough of the world looking down on him for his field of study, he decided to begin working with darker forces in order to bring back enchantment magic.

Description: Just Jer to his friends, or Manny, or possibly Glen. It’s hard to pin down, and Glenjerman is not very good at clarifying. Nephew to Cadmun Copperfist, this cheerful olive-skinned dwarf with a chainmail vest and a man bun that’s actually working for him sells woolen goods at the entrance to Ferroholm using the sheep currently being used to keep the grounds tidy. Sure, he’s the product of obvious…nippletism, but he’s a chill bro who’s hard to dislike.

She has a warm, maternal instinct for taking care of everyone who passes through Triumph House’s doors. She quickly warms to those who are friendly, but can be vicious to those who cause offense or harm those she cares about. She allows friends to call her “Bonnie”.

Legends place Izzik’s birthplace somewhere around Bryn Shander, the capital city of the arctic Icewind Dale region. Much of their early history is lost to time or contradicted by other sources, but folklore regards Izzik as the most skillful mage of the era, with power rivaling that of lesser gods. Much song and story is devoted to their exploits: the defeat of the Golden, their designing (and later destruction of) the Forge of Shade, their escape from the Obsidian Snare, etc. Nearly 800 years ago, Izzik simply disappeared from their post as Chief Arcane Advisor within the Elder Empire, and was never seen again.
In all remaining documentation of the mage, Izzik was described a surprisingly slight humanoid of indeterminate gender, with very fine shoulder-length slivery hair, that appeared almost to be a boater’s tan, and lightly luminous orange eyes with odd pupils. Goggles could be found resting on their brow, with a dizzying array of lens attachments anchored to them, with a variety of both colors and sizes. To those who met Izzik, they could be described as…eccentric. (Read: Slightly insane.) Catalyst, a red dragon wyrmling could oft be found mounted on Izzik’s shoulder.
Note: Izzik the Lost is presumed dead. Their whereabouts haven’t been confirmed in hundreds of years so we can only assume…

Description: This small-time confidence man is a platinum blonde drow of medium build with a disarming smile and a small spoon on a chain around his neck (proclaiming his favor with “the First” in Chainlock Keep). Norn’s criminal ways are frequent and inept enough that he can predictably be found in Clearcrest’s central prison, but he eschews violence and has a tendency to faint at the sight of blood. The drow is a fairly good source for rumors and information within the prison.

Description: A dour-looking desk sergeant tortle manning the personal effects lockup at the Central Garrison. Slow, steady, and a stickler for the rules, Bleser will follow the rules, even if they happen to be contradictory.

Description: The proprietor of the Chandlery in Golden Cape, this orange tabby tabaxi can be found leaning lightly on the counter, often chatting amicably with customers. He efficiently scrawls notes on ship stores’ checklists, and is always quick to acknowledge newcomers to the shop with an exotic-sounding “G’day. Can I help you, mate?” And, for a small fee, he might be able to offer you information about the sailors he’s seen coming and going…

Known Aliases: His Most Lowly and Esteemed Beloved Servant, First Keeper Danvers of the Submerged Rectory of the Deepest Fain

Description: In serious need of a bath and fresh clothes, Danvers can often be seen in dirty rags carrying a wooden sign through Worf’s Wharf, on which have been stapled a trout and a crab claw with a pair of small knives…all of which have clearly seen better days (the back is a crude drawing of a chair with an “X” through it) Whenever he happens to spot someone who isn’t immediately scurrying away, he’ll being to shout wildly in praise to a god he calls “Gibbidibbus.” Occasionally, he seems to fall into some sort of trance and spouts prophecy which may or may not be accurate.

Description: A half-elf with platinum white hair, your eyes are automatically drawn to her most striking feature, which is to say the startling quantity of scar tissue covering the right half of her face, only hidden momentarily by a black headband doubling as an eyepatch.

He was born into the life of animal husbandry, as his surname suggests. While he works with horses every day as both a profession and a hobby, he often spends time out near Worf’s Wharf gazing out at the Arundel Sea, watching dolphins leap joyfully in and out of the water. Dolphins are his true favorite animal, and he hopes to someday, somehow create a type of boat that uses dolphins as a carriage would use horses.

Description: Behind the central counter, a grizzled pipe-smoking goliath woman with longer grey hair leans against a support pillar. If you make eye contact, the seven-foot tall woman will straighten and walk toward the counter. A rhythmic clopping sound should tip off visitors that the woman’s left leg is a wooden prosthetic. Her deep, monotonous voice emphasizes a calm, logical, and emotionless manner. Lobose runs Questor’s View’s dockside.

Description: A pale blue-skinned tiefling with black hair and the attitude and dress sense of a gossipy groupie, Missy is the bartender/server of the Soggy Yarn.

Description: A thinner-than-average tanned dwarven man with a salt and pepper beard and a mean squint, Ten is captain of the small trading ship called the Copper Finch. At his back is a short length of wood with a worn grip tucked into his belt, and he maintains a confrontational air with…practically everyone. He generally begins introductions with his one and only joke: “I’m ten.”…”No, my name’s Ten,” while pulling out his belaying pin with a smug grin, “’Cause it’s actually Steven, but S’s and V’s are hard to say when you ain’t got any teeth.”

Description: A goblin woman generally found at The Happy Cyclops in Golden Cape, with a notepad and a determined expression. The nametag on her smock proclaims her name is Tarabell, and that she is happy to help… Her customer service smile is impeccable, and her chirpy, cheerful tone masterfully hides her backhanded sarcasm.

Description: The intelligent, no-nonsense president of the Environmental Protection Agency. He is a tall, well-built half elf, with neatly combed salt and pepper hair. Pimric met with him to give a report on the outcome of the Crooked Stair cleanup job and to let him know about the unfortunate casualties that occurred. Tuttle then authorized the Cleaners to simply send the EPA an invoice, which was paid out a week later in the amount of 2100 gp.

While he is built like a brick wall, rippling with sinew and muscle, he dons nothing by a long wizards robe and carries a staff. He has been attending schools in Philomath to become a wizard, but occasionally his baser instincts get the better of him and he will burst into a rage, resorting to physical violence.

Description: The pre-eminent figure of psychoanalysis in Clearcrest, leading doctor of the Placid Hills Sanatorium, and mindflayer aberration extraordinaire, Dr Floyd is a rather small figure hovering three feet off the ground. Admittedly, that is the least shocking thing about the creature. Its forehead is grossly elongated, with glassy black eyes and a set of round wireframe spectacles perched over horrifying tentacles, which in turn are resting over what would be a chin on any normal humanoid. Two are exceptionally short, creating the facsimile of a mustache, and the two longer tentacles braid themselves together neatly under the face. The rest of the creature is remarkably similar to a gnome, albeit one with skin a disconcerting purple color, bony, distended fingers, and a bizarre leatherish black robe covering the space you’d assume its feet must be. Has a penchant for drinking spinal fluid out of a delicate bone china teacup.

Description: A gnomish man in goggles with unkempt gray hair standing on end. He wears a light blue vest with a dirty white tunic underneath it.

He has slicked back hair that was once blonde, but is now greying. A small, sharp beard juts out from his chin matches.
He feels deep loyalty to the family he serves as a show of gratitude for taking him and his mother in after they lost their home and became destitute to during The Battle of the Braided Armies. He is a very proud man and will be quick to defend the Wynsidor family. With no real memory of his biological father, he sees the patron of the Wynsidor family, Ayre Wynsidor, as a father figure.

She is young and her bright blue eyes shine out from under the brown and gold makeup she wears in intricate designs on her face. A simple leather satchel rests on her hip hung from a strap across her shoulder. In her hand she carries a long, gnarled staff with golden runes running up the length of it in a straight line.

Her wrists and fingers are adorned with various jewelry and the designs on her face continue on her hands.
She is a student of divination, which her ancient, wealthy elven family considers rather tawdry. She is rather eccentric in dress and behaviors- sometimes appearing to be distracted by a far off thought. As a fellow member of the Septentrion, she has an ongoing rapport about the study of magic with Gregory Serpentwood.

Description: The matron of the Wynsidor family; an old money elven family in the district of Skyleaf that has an ongoing rivalry with the Amastacia family for supposedly being given too much credit for providing resources to Lord Marshall Alamir during the Battle of the Braided Armies.

She survives her husband and patron of the House of Wynsidor, Ayre Wynsidor.
In a show of hubris, she once attempted to perform a ritual during the Elven Heritage Festival Nostari Merende and ended up almost destroying the district. A powerful time wizard, Everly Gnomon, trapped the district in a time bubble to prevent the destruction until the Cassius Cleaners were able to stop the ritual from occurring.

The man, in a word, is a real Chad.

Description: Gimble appears to be a very humble, quiet gnome. He stands approximately 3’10” tall and, while also dressed in orange robes to match his master, they appear to be dirtier than that of his master (see Egitrix the Enchanting). He wears no armor, carries no shield, and the only method of defense he seems to possess is a simple wooden staff that he wears upon his back. When you catch a glimpse of them, his dark blue eyes show humility, but there also appears to be sparks of stark discipline.

A tattered tabard that must have once been originally orange, hangs over his torso. The tabard appears to have been mended a number of times based on the patchwork that covers it. If you look closely, you can make out the insignia of the Emberfell Clan on the rear of the tabard. A large quarterstaff hangs across his back. While an intimidating figure, Patch has a child’s sense of wonderment and adventure- but don’t let this innocence lead you to underestimating his power. When the lives of his loved ones and friends are threatened, his normally yellow eyes turn red and he becomes deadly.
