Background: Altai Iscarni was born in Rauxes, the capital of the Great Kingdom of Aerdy, as the youngest child of a family of merchants and minor nobles. During his youth, Overking Ivid V became more and more insane, and his father and uncles became more and more worried the more time they spent at court. Eventually, Altai's father sent his favourite sons to Rel Astra to manage his business; Altai, on the other hand, had never shown any aptitude for, or interest in, business and was sent to university in Kalstrand instead. Just as Altai was completing his studies, Rauxes was consumed by a magical cataclysm, and his graduate school application was denied once the stipend from his family dried up. Always uncomfortable with the Aerdian rulers and now also nervous that the agents of the new Overking of Ahlissa would come looking for anyone with even a tenuous link to the old regime, he decided to leave the Great Kingdom altogether. He spent his last coin securing passage across the Azure Sea, disembarking in Gradsul. After spending a couple of years wandering the Sheldomar Valley and the Gran March, Altai drifted southwards to Saltmarsh. He currently works as a librarian in the temple of Boccob and spends his free time hanging out at the Lizard's Boat, drinking cheap beer and playing darts. However, even though the job is OK, the pay is terrible, and he is getting ready to do something a little different. Maybe this mercenary job will be the thing he's looking for? Combat wands: DC 10 (Type I) or 20 (Type III) concentration to activate, range of 40 or 80 feet. You can add up to your primary casting ability modifier to damage at a rate of +1 for every 3 points you exceed the base concentration check. They hit with a ranged touch attack. Signature magical items: Altai has built these magical items: - Crocodile bone leg, worn by the lizardman chief.
Summoned monsters: Altai likes conjuring giant insects. He typically call these monsters: Summon monster I: Celestial giant fire beetle
