Forenrond Shankley

Level 2 Rogue - Dog Pants

Half-elf. Hater of spiders and master-thief.

Of human mother and elven father, he falls into the rarer category of half breed. His slight frame and slightly pointy features are all he outwardly shows of his paternal heritage, but he has his mother's looks. This combines to create an image that should be attractive, but just doesn't fit together properly and gives the beholder more of a feeling of uncanny valley than elven beauty.

Thoroar Glimmergaunt

Level 1 Wizard - Baliame

Half-elf. Wears a classy monocle, likes to change his clothes a lot.

Glibberig Garretty

Level 1 Bard - Roman Totale

Gnome. World renowned Bard. Poet to Kings and courter of Princesses. He has slain dragons and charmed devils. It is rumoured that Garl Glittergold seeks his sage counsel on a regular basis.

Glibberig has white hair that sticks up wildly in all directions. It appears to have things in it for ornamentation - beads, coloured string, a magpie feather.

His outfit looks like it was quite plush at one point, though now it tattered and bloodstained. It looks like it has been stitched up several times as noted by the various coloured patches and thread, but still manages to look quite stylish, in a tinker-chic kind of way.

He now owns a dog as a mount - a Saint Bernard named Sweetlips. It is unknown whether the animal appreciates or even acknowledges the name, and it appears to posses an air of boredom and aloofness for the majority of its master's antics.

Thor Yngve (THOR ING-VAY)

Level 1 Ranger - FatherJack

Thor Yngve. Loner. Woodsman. Hunter. A dark shadow in the forest. A ghost.

Thor Yngve. Shepherd. Saviour. Hero. Protector of the weak. Guardian of the lost.

Thor Yngve. Whirlwind. Lightning. Deadly. Strikes from the night. Leaves no trace.

Thor Yngve. Enigma.

Thor wears a wide-brimmed hat, has a bow slung across his back and two nasty-looking blades at his waist. His tanned skin gives him a weathered, aged look, yet his brown eyes look bright and quick.

Thor Yngve (reported) quotes:

“I aint no Elf, yakking away with Mother Nature all day. I just live out in the forest with the animals. And I kill them. It’s a job.”

“I’m a simple man. Straightforward. I take simple pleasures and I straightforward come out and say what I mean. So give me a simple answer to this straightforward question: What are you doing in my forest?”

“I don’t much care for laws, and I have no need for property I can’t carry, but I know stealin’ when I see it.”

“Now then you see, we seem to have reached a disagreement. I had a disagreement with a bear once. I skewered him right through the chest and cut his old belly wide open. He didn’t disagree none with me no more after that.”

Little is known about Thor Yngve, yet much is said. Tales of him go back further than anyone can remember, so much is superstition and myth, as he can't possibly be as old as the tales. It’s told he once saved a boy-child lost in the forest and attacked by wolves, yet his spectre is used to scare disobedient children. He is known among local bandits as someone to be avoided, local villagers as someone to be wary of, but the local traders take his custom in meat and furs gladly.

There is speculation among the townsfolk that the current "Thor Yngwe" is a younger descendant of a great many "Thor Yngwe"s of old, or even that he's merely a pretender adopting the name, but there are equally wild speculations that he is a physical manifestation of a "spirit of the forest" which first gave rise to the name, which in various translations of the old tongue means "King of the lands which surround us" or "Forest Protector/Lord". The townspeople's innate superstition would preclude them from ever mentioning these theories to outsiders.

In their interactions with him, local villagers treat him with a very guarded respect. He is known to be plain-speaking and distrustful of ornate eloquence. Those subscribing to the more supernatural explanations fancy his steely gaze can penetrate their lies and those with a more pragmatic view see him as volatile and dangerous.

Universally, whether seeing him as a man, a legend, or a man pretending to be a legend, the locals are in favour of the way his presence gives bandits pause before causing trouble in the area. Equally though, none fully trust him or imagine they can discern his full motives.

Orovan Gnarledtrunk

Level 1 Druid - Shot2Bits

Gnome. Managed to find a Camel. How about that?

Orovan has dirty blonde matted hair and turquoise eyes, but looks fairly young for a gnome. Wearing leather armour with a wooden shield, he keeps a couple of short spears strapped to his back.
