Characteristics

Name

Full Name: Brand Dehlor

Birthplace: Small settlement North of Gridania

Appearance

Height: 6".
Weight: 175 ponz.
Body: Lean and muscular from a life of constant travel and discipline.
Hair: Black.
Eyes: Cyan.
Skin: Lightly Tanned.

Clothing: Within the bounds of civilization, Brand can most often be found in modest, clean-cut merchant attire, with an assortment of quality poultices and fine jewelry tucked away. While traveling or working a job, he tends to sport plain leather armor with a bow and quiver in tow. Always wears a two-part pendant of Nald'Thal that seems to hold significant sentimental value.

Marks: Brand has no visible scars, though a more thorough examination would reveal some brutal scarring on his back right shoulder. If anyone ever inquires about the scar the subject will be promptly changed and further inquiries met with a forlorn, chilling silence.

The Rumor Mill

    • 'He's a shrewd businessman, but he only sells the best.'
    • 'He never seems to lose his temper.'
    • 'He may never lose his temper but the vibes he gives off when something is not agreeable really creep me out.'
  • Moderate Rumors (Moderately difficult to overhear):
    • 'Brand? Don't mistake him as a fledgling merchant without the means to defend himself, lest ye be beggin' to be sent to an early grave.'
    • 'I heard he's a bard of sorts.... just don't ask him to sing you a song.'
  • Rare Rumors (Very difficult to overhear):
    • 'I've heard he discretely handles alchemical healing for those not wanting to drawn attention to themselves by using normal channels.'
  • PC Rumors (Player created rumors--feel free to add your own!):
