Name: Kerl Southclaw Species: CoyWolf (CoyoteXWolf Hybrid) Occupation: Wandering trader, entertainer (story-telling based on his travels, little bits of music and card tricks) and trade correspondant. Talents: Performing, Sleight of hand (including pickpocketing if he doesn't like the person or if desperate), some martial arts skills (learnt to defend himself against larger hostiles), negotiating and and investigating, supported by a strong curiosity about the world. Age: Mid 20's Height 6' 2" Build: Wirey Colouration: Grey-Brown all over with the occasional black or white accent. Paler on the belly/underside then on the back where their is a darker line. Reddish brown streak along the ridge of the muzzle leading back to rear of his head. Some white marks of old scars where the older wolves roughhoused him a little to hard. Items of note: Craft kit, uniform for the Golden Mane, Small Deringer for self defence against larger creatures. Kerl was born as the unwanted result of an overly close "trading partnership" between a family of Coyote Merchants and Wolf Explorers, specificall a male from the former and a female from the latter. As the merchant had moved on by the time Kerl was born, he was raised by his morther initially however his relationship with the rest of the woves around him was fractious at best. Tiring of being on the bottom of the heap in the family, he eventually left, finally falling in with his fathers clan where he learnt the ways of trading, as well as the deeper family culture of tricks and humour. However, his existance was gradually building a scandel for both family's involved and, with his presence complicating trade with more choosey folks, Kerl was issued with instructions to leave the family's home, officially to act as a trade scout. Most of those concerned, however, knew the true reasoning was to try to pretend he didn't exist. Saddened by having to leave the region he had known since his birth, Kerl wandered the costs of the young States for several years, writing back occasionally to keep up the pretence of working for the clan but mostly just exploring and learning of the world. Unfortunately for him, the whispermongers spread the scandal slowly in his wake, and, tiring of keeping moving, he left accross the ocea back to England, ostensibly to monitor the war to see whether any merchant leverage could be made of it but mostly to get out of range of the whispers and pointed looks. Arriving at Holyhead port fairly penniless, he worked the docks bars for a little while as an entertainer before one of his "tricks" got slightly out of hand and the local police moved him on. His travels took him north to Newcastle where he briefly worked on his music again alongside watching the movements of ships in and out of the port city. Whilst resting up their, he heard of the launch of a new luxury train. Seeing a way to ingratiate himself with a society that would hopefully not have heard of him as well as a way to continue his travels whilst being payed for it. So there you are! A little bit of detail about your travelling companion. Regards to all! |
