NP Cs
NPC's by Area
Dal T'Nor
Alkor, Fifth Blade of the Brotherhood
Baron Fistus
Using a title such as Baron in Dal T'Nor is almost unheard of, but this pompous tyrant insists. He lords over several small farms in the northern outskirts of the city. He has a reputation for coercing the serfs under his lordship by withholding desperately needed resources or with threats. He punishes thieves and squealers mercilessly. Unfortunately, no one has had the courage or evidence to bring this to the attention of the Order.
The Brotherhood
Organized crime is just starting to rear its ugly head in Dal T'Nor and this newly formed band of thugs is making a play for top dog. Through intimidation, theft and outright murder they've had some success in discouraging any rum huskylour without their say so.
Koga, the Cut-Purse
A green and reckless young rogue on the streets of Dal T'Nor. Vargus nabbed him on an ill-planned trison heist and turned him into the monks rather than the cruel lord who owned the beast.
Koan, Master Smith of Old Town
Magnus, the Whore-Monger
Snit, the Wormtongue
Surly Brutus
Or Shirley to his friends and soon-to-be dead men. Owner and barkeep at the Cracked Cup, a seedy establishment in the NE docks area. His head is bald with age and his belly has grown rotund, but large ropey muscles still bulge in his arms and neck.
"Tusky"
The party never bothered to learn this big-mouthed orcish thug's name before luring him into a trap. Unfortunately for him, his loud mouth guaranteed that the Brotherhood suspected he was a liability and was there in the shadows to dispatch him before the party to squeeze any info from him. Rest in peace, Tusky!
Dal Marrow
Brahams the Brown
Or simply Brother Brahams. A classmate of Geezbik's, he is a tall and burly direling monk of the bear totem. Tufts of brown hair poke out of the sleeves and collar of his monk's robes.
Brother Madarame
Graduated classmate of Geezbik's, this pious young human took up a post as schoolmaster and holyman to the hamlet of Velnori. When the undead began to attack, he saved whom he could, assembled a party and ventured into the Velnorinesti to put an end to the assault. Badly wounded in the attempt, he hid himself in some cliffside caves and observed the intruders as best he could. He provided valuable information when the party rescued him. He has since returned to Dal Marrow but has suffered the loss of his left leg. Word is he plans to help rebuild Velnori as soon as he's recovered.
The Order of the Way
Masters of Dal Marrow and keepers of the peace in Dal Marrow, these altruistic monks and holy men can be found in every settlement in T'Nori Vale. They are the healers, teachers and mediators offering their services to those in need as the tenants of The Way prescribe.
Sister Elsanor, the Librarian
Ul-Bennith
Or Brother Bennith as he prefers. This venerable holy man is one of the three masters of Dal Marrow, presiding over the Halls of Serenity and current patron of the monastery's orphanage. He is friend and mentor to Geezbik and many others.
Ul-Quiorra
Or Grandmaster Ul-Quiorra within his dojo. A precise and disciplined master of the martial arts, this lord of Dal Marrow presides of the Halls of Fortitude. He is a Sigil Elf with skin like cedar bark and hair of dark green moss. Every monk to pass through the Halls of Fortitude in the last hundred years have trained under his watchful eye.
Ul-Sharil IX
An austere and proud human of some seventy winters yet with remarkable vigor, Ul-Sharil is master of the Halls of Insight, something akin to an execute branch of government. Unlike many of his fellows he commands powers both divine and arcane. His judgments tend to be draconian but are tempered by the counsel of Ul-Bennith.
Velnori
Delton
An orphaned artist's son whose father, Landis, was killed in the initial onslaught of undead from the Great Maru Pass. Like his father his dabbles in pencil drawing. He tends to speak boldly and honestly which often invites trouble. He attempted to steal horses from the party but was pinched by Kingu. The party saw him off safely to Dal Marrow with the old man Kalinfingar.
Kalinfingar
A crotchety old geezer with outspoken opinions about younger folk whom the party rescued from the ruins of Velnori. He took Delton with him to Dal T'Nor.
Mayor Cornelius Cathwright
Mayor of the hamlet of Velnori for several decades, this aging bureaucrat barely escaped the assault of undead. He is well-liked but steeped in his ways. Word has it he is at Dal Marrow speaking with the Order about rebuilding the village.
Outside the Vale
Maddox the Gore Claw, T'lincalli Blackguard
An unholy warrior invader who met his end at the party's hands in the ruined temple at the Great Maru Pass. His corpse was buried with his great scythe and his many pet scorpions in a lake of magma.
Naraku, T'lincalli Necromancer
Dark priest to an unknown force, this villain was sending hordes of virulent zombies to destroy Velnori and get a foot hold in the Vale. He was vanquished at the mouth of the Great Maru Pass among the intruding sands from the desert beyond. Among his possessions were a few previously unknown divine incantations.
