In more detail the Proteges and NPC's who adventure with either company




NPC protégés
These are minor characters who are or who are available to adventure with the Company. They are presented in a little more detail than chance encountered NPC’s


Sondan - the crossbowman
The sort of man you want by your side in crisis calm unflappable soldierly, trained from an early age by one of the small mercenary companies which operate in the lawless lands along the northern Cosolen border. He came south when he began to become uncomfortable with the sort of jobs the Mercenary companies newest proprietor was getting them and was until recently hoping to become a caravan guard.

Dvorn the Axe
Every thing Dvorn will tell you about his background is a tissue of lies, the truth being that he was a foundling raised in an orphanage not far form Cosolen. However he will tell you that he is the natural son of the captain of the Kalamarian emperor’s personal foloki guards and a Cosolen princess and he will frequently brag of doing the deeds of others and be the first to propose a fight as the way to solve a problem. He is however less than brave and likely to be the first to break the line and run when the battle turns against his side.


Fawlit the Half ork
Portrays the savage half ork barbarian and often shouts abuse in orkish, but is in truth not being the result of a scheme to breed "tame orks" for the pit fighting circuit in Northern Cosdol. He escaped due to his keepers getting drunk as the result of celebration a good win and fled south to escape them.
 
Here he found a cold welcome and being despite appearances a sensitive soul turned to drink to ease the pain and to doing the jobs no one wanted to do to pay for that drink. All he wants is a company of comrades who will stand with him and not hold his birth against him.


Liamar- priest of the free
A charming young man from the eastern borders of Kalamar only & much loved son of a poor shoe maker who was apprenticed to a wizard as he was a bright lad, but when he proved to have no talent for magic at all the Wizard who wanted an apprentice more than a servant, grew angry and sold him into slavery to recover the cost of keeping the useless bugger as he called Liamar.

He was rescued by being bought at auction by the previous champion of the free using false coin. The former champion found the personable young lad a foster home in the Hidden Dell where he has lived ever since slowly training as a priest of the free but afflicted badly by migraines bought about by his former master trying to force him to learn arcane magic, he is a little paranoid about these migraines and engages in a number of elaborate yet ineffective rituals to ward them off.

The Company of Strangers

Nyassor
 A stranger from a far world drawn to the gate on the king’s road by forgotten magic. An elf warrior of considerable height and formidable build who watches and listens much and says very little he seems to have had a hard life which has made him hard in return

Americ
A stranger from a far world drawn to the gate on the kings road by forgotten magic A Priest of a goddess of liberation and currently bereft as his link with his divine mistress has been severed so he is without her aid and support. He is normally the talkative member of his company and will often take the lead but he is presently quite unusually lacking confidence

Nesbit
A stranger from a far world who was in the company of the others when they made their stand would appear not to have come with them a Halfling wizard who is much given to playing the fool and apparent good humour but shows their rather angry true self through their warlike magic, currently trapped in Aeltred’s head thanks to an unfortunate side effect of several powerful magic’s interacting. However he is beginning to win free or at least get some control as a result of Telec hitting Aeltred around the head with Groin seeker, otherwise Aeltred occasionally dreams Nesbit’s memories.
 
Meanor Arvol
A stranger from a far world drawn to the gate on the kings road by forgotten magic or at least her leg was as she was cut down fighting off demons and fell forward out of the circle as the magic carried them all away and is in all likelihood dead. A Dwarven warrior with a rather untypical taste for bright colours.

At Vayham

Esme
The youngest child of a wealthy joiner & cabinet maker in Vayham who did not get quite the education he father intended at the expensive finishing school she went to in Cosdolan and who is trying to break away from family’s plans to marry her of the a local land holder. She has rather decided that she is going to marry her father’s new labourer the warrior Nyadryn and that she is going to make him a knight.

Nyadryn
A Brandobian warrior who hails from the northlands of Cosdol where he learned his trade as a mercenary soldier helping to hold Cosdol’s wild northern frontier, when he grew tired of that he left his company and came south to work as a freelance body guard and occasional adventurer. An adventure  last summer with Goblins east of the river lead him to Vayham where he took up his fathers trade of carpenter until he fell in with more adventurers. He is almost entirely unaware of Esme’s plot thought he is in love with her and fiercely protective of her, he believes that they will never marry as he is not rich enough and not does he have sufficient status to win her fathers approval
   
Varill
A tanners apprentice until he was kidnapped by the cult of the Rot lord on the way home form work and then when rescued fell in with  the group of adventurers not a brave man but a good one and one you can rely on even when he is terrified half to death.
