Vergor Fenstrider's page

Vergor is a short, solidly built older swamper with skin stained dark tan by repeated exposure to the elements and the tea-like waters of the bogs. His long black hair is streaked with grey and his face is full of lines showing his 40 years have been hard won. He wears leather armor covered with a layer of alagator hide and a cap-like helmet similarly made of gator skin. Vergor has complete faith in his independence and abilities to see him through most situations that the swamp can throw at him. He is practical and strait-spoken to the point of bluntness...not a rudeness born of being a mysanthrope, but of spending too much time on his own.

Vergor grew up with his father in the area southeast of Daggerford. His mother died when he was about four and as a result he spent most of his youth helping his father trap critters to sell pelts in Waterdeep furrier shops and other assorted bits to arcanists for spell components. So the boy spent more nights under mangrove roots than under a roof. He learned well the secrets of the woods and mires and fens. He grew to be a strong young man wandering from the Lizard Marshes, to the Misty Forest, to the High Moor, but his interest in trapping waned and he became more interested in enjoying and preserving the balance of the dynamic natural systems that he saw.

His reverence of the natural world eventually turned into a kind of worship and between his own reflection and some tutalage under local human druids and the occasional shamen of local lizardman and bullywug tribes he has become somewhat known around Daggerford for his power over the natural world. He is not affiliated with any Drudic organization currently.

He started leasing out his services as a guide and, on occasion, has traveled as far as the Marsh of Chelimber. During his travels he has made and maintained contacts with sources in Waterdeep and the surrounding countryside, including various adventureres he has helped guide. He keeps a small shack outside of Daggerford with Orellia Groppet, a local midwife. They enjoy a casual relationship and she offers a drop-point for information to be left for the wandering druid.
