For all of these reviews, please forgive me if I ask or seem to have overlooked something posted elsewhere in the thread, as I've been on a work stretch and am just trying to get caught up a bit in regards to these reviews. Just remind me of it.

Jegan of Amanns:
Dex combatant of some type, at this point I'm assuming ranged. No backstory to review at this time, unless it is in the thread somewhere?

Sorry about the delay, been working on fleshing out everything. A few things updated, not completed yet.

@DM Thron:
Was thinking some ranged, but probably some light melee, emphasis on weapons that I can use my DEX bonus to later... will take Weapons Finesse later on. Rough ideas for the motivation were in the post, along with worldview, background is coming from those two.... have a bit from youth to adolescence on the sheet now.... adulthood to now is the final piece and should be finished and on by tomorrow.
Posted gold he has to start with.... will deduct from it as I make my inventory list. He might need some trade good / alchemical samples for his cover, wouldn't be enough to craft anything large out of, but would need to be enough to prove to a city merchant's councel or its equivalent that allowing a fetchling merchant outpost to be established would be beneficial to them.


Not quite done with him yet, working on equipment and backstory, but here is The Emerald Duke's character: Jegan of Amaans (male Fetchling Slayer of the Cleaner archetype).

Rough Motivations:

He will be essentially on a mission on behalf of the Umbral Dragon who rules the city his family trades out of. His cover is to investigate the Ustalav region to determine if there is adequate demand to set up a trade point for his clan's exotic goods from the Shadow Plane and beyond... as such he will need to have a few NPC fetchlings to refer to if not interface with for believability. His real job is to ensure the Whispering Tyrant is freed... but not out of the devotion to the Whispering Way that he perports. Rather, he is to free him so that his mistress can then be in a better position to capture the Tyrant and consume his essence. ("Liches only really begin to taste decent after they have had at least two to three centuries to mellow.")
While he will have a last name, he will not use it in the material plane, preferring to call himself by the region of Ustalav he crossed into.

Rough Personality:

Jegan is at heart a pragmatist. His reality is that if he fails to attempt his task, his two sisters and mother will be consumed by his mistress... and so will he should he ever return to the shadow plane. As such, he is willing to do whatever is necessary to further his goals. Outwardly, like many of his kind, he is fawning to those who appear stronger than he is or those he wants to manipulate. In private conversations with those working with him he will be courteous, but reserved.

I will get to work fleshing these out and adding them (as well as gear) to his profile, but wanted you to be able to see where I was at least.
