Wanderlings

Tai Li is from the Empire of Perfect Unity. It has been suggested that she comes from North of the Wall. She is nominally the leader of the Merchants of Opportunity.

A Pagefolk from The Great Library. Principles, as he is called, unlike other Wanderlings came to the Forest by choice and not surprise. His main task is locating fragments of the Great Index — a Power from the Great Library.

A man who wanted Rattle Spine, he is also known by the name Laroshen “Truebraid.”

He is a refugee/survivor from the very end of the age of Oun. An apparent dilettante in the martial arts whose wealthy father either tricked or physically pushed him (maybe both) into some sort of “freezing” device. This device was considered highly experimental and was mostly fatal, but apparently Laroshen was one of the lucky few (very very few).

He is one of the few survivors of that ancient time, that is willing to discuss what he knows. Unfortunately, he apparently doesn’t know a whole lot.

Indira was born into a wealthy family within Serpent’s Eye. Her mother was a magi and decedent of the Djinn Qadim. The story goes that her great grandfather was the child of a djinn and a favored courtisan. This child, a boy named Zakariyya, became a very powerful magician and prophet. His prestige became well known and the family took on the name. Malati, Indira’s beloved mother, passed away when she was only eleven years old. The death was a stunning tragedy as none of the magi could understand what caused it. From that point on, she traveled with her father along the trade routes.

I (Othar) write in this library like others have for a record of who I am and my time here in the Forest.

My birth clan was Minor Clan Sigla in fealty to Clan Vigdis. Clan Sigla’s holdings being bordered by a sea and reefs mean that a large number of our resources involve fishing as well as hunting in the forests. A small but proud clan life focused on survival rather than extending power or influence.

My father Omar the Storm Navigator is renowned for being able to pilot a ship through the roughest of storms.

So that others may know of me, I shall write a bit here about myself and my activities since coming to the forest. I, Rajiyah Bint Fuam, am the daughter of Magistrate Fuam of the Jewel of the River, a beautiful small settlement in the Desert of Brass. Located near the magical city of Serpent’s Eye, the Jewel of the River is so named because of the magic residue washing up on our shores. At certain times of the year, the shores sparkle, and this magic has made our sand especially good for growing crops.

I (Shardae) have a love of books, though I (Shardae) haven’t read as much as some other Desert dwellers. This is also likely because I (Shardae) mostly cared to read about the great tricksters and adventurers of the past and stories like theirs.

But I (Shardae) seem to be writing about myself. It’s an odd feeling, like there might be some sort of story like those I’m used to waiting to happen, except that it’s me (Shardae).

I (Shardae) come from near Victory Ewer and know odds and ends.

I am Ulric,Warrior of Clan Geirolf, former Berserker of Clan Hamdir, son of Magni the Enraged.

I bear the witch lock. I carry the rage and fury of my ancestors, but it now is tempered by the empathy granted me by the Lovers through my wife.

I have fought to redeem my line. I bear the twin axes Vengeance and Retribution, forged by my father to avenge the honor of our line lost by the one before him.

I was once the husband of Eir, who was bound to me by the Lovers, spirits of the Sun.

As apparently no one will write on my (Marcus) behalf, I (Marcus) guess I (Marcus) shall do so myself.

I (Marcus) am from the 6th Valley, I (Marcus) am a medic, my light clothes are less a reflection of my beliefs and more my upbringing. I am currently apprenticed to both The Lord of the Worm Eaten City and one other.

To answer the questions Ghost Tiger asked of me (Marcus)

Can you explain more about your 6th Valley? The 6th valley is ruled by Lady Tacita. It is different from the other valleys, but truly, any Acerbian knows how different the valleys are from one another.

Abigail fell through a door into the Forest about three years ago with her ex-boss and family friend Brannigan.  She was quiet overwhelmed at her first gather and went with Brannigan to the Goblin Warrens where she spent a good amount of time with the Royalist.  She eventually returned to Nexus a year later, determined to help this town and it’s inhabitants to the best of her abilities.  She worked long and hard to master the art of alchemy and can now produce many exotic tablets and tonics, she is also a Initiate of the Mysteries of Fire and Iron.
