Background:
Darcy DeWinter (not his real name...), swashbuckling half-elven bard! Ever willing to woo the ladies, sing rousing and ribald songs, and tell outrageous lies!
[lie]His mother was an elven princess, his father a knight errant lost and near death in the enchanted forest which was her home. She found him, nursed him back to health, and their love (to their mutual joy) resulted in the birth of Darcy DeWinter![/lie]
[truth]His mother was a human harlot, his father a random passing elf she earned a few coins off one dark, drunken, night in a Riddleport back alley - their trist resulted (to her horror) in George Snodgrass... who now goes by Darcy DeWinter![/truth]
With flashing blade and ripping yarns Darcy buckles his swash across the town... although lately he's been a bit short of cash, and that gambling event at the Gold Goblin looks like a good place to find a few suckers... ahem... 'to earn an honest crust' as an entertainer...
