PCs: Doorjamb

NPCs

Brand (human male): A twitty, slender serving boy at the Seven Flood Inn. He is known for a precocious attitude of superiority towards the guests, and harries them to vacate their tables so he can keep ahead with his duties. He is also known for his witty repartee with the clientele, and has exchanged words with Doorjamb Grizzlebeard. Brand is about 5'8" with curvy dark blond hair and a straight, expressionless face unless he becomes heated. He's about 15 years old.

Polk (human male): A somewhat illiterate courier at Floivin Keep who has seen no more than 11 summers. Polk is short, with moppy black hair and twinkling brown eyes. He's usually short of breath and has trouble reading the names and addresses of his charges, thus he can often cause confusion when the addressees must hear him out. Polk will press for compensation if it seems a recipient is not going to tip.

Private Teckle 'The Tickler' (human male): A competent soldier serving under Captain Tarl Treadmyr of Halehusk, Teckle is roughly 5'10" and has short brown hair, a slim moustache and glaring blue-green eyes. He is known as 'The Tickler' because of his skill with a crossbow. He is assigned to guard the Old Pager's Farm after the PCs assaulted it to drive out the Skull Collar goblins and free the prisoners being held there, and encounters Doorjamb Grizzlebeard during his investigation.

Rath Mangator (half-orc male): A bumpkin of a half-orc who performs odd tasks for anyone willing to pay him. He generally hangs out in the mornings and afternoons at Market Square outside the east gate of Floivin Keep, dressed in nothing more than a pair of battered sandals, a loincloth and an improvised fishnet shirt. Despite his rather poor appearance, Rath is quite fit, with taut, muscular arms, chest and legs, and may excel in many physical tasks. He's got long, ratty dark hair which is very rarely kept in any semblance of order, and a rusted brass hoop pierced through the top of his left ear. Rath has some difficulty pronouncing words in Common properly.

Vondort (human male): A man nearing his twilight years, with a slender frame, whitish hair and a large, brush-like moustache. Vondort has a fondness for ale, and spends a considerable amount of time each day drinking the poison. He allows Odd Jon and Doorjamb to hole up in his cellar during their indefinite stay at Floivin Keep, provided they guard his supply from local hooligans.
