DESCRIPTION
Falko follows the style of the times as best he can afford. He favours expensive silk shirts and intricate vests mixing warm and earthy colours. When he expects weather or trouble, he switches his low-heeled shoes and white silk socks for leather breaches and high boots, and dons his thick, unremarkable, but sturdy scalemail, which he detests and would never be caught wearing in some quarters of Westcrown.

His eyes are filled with a mix of purpose and thirst for recognition, while his mouth is an invitation to contemplate, embrace, or fist, depending on what comes out of it. He is certainly good with his tongue, or so he says, which he mostly uses to repeat verses ad nauseam, extort money from friends, or complain (also ad nauseam) about how he never gets a real break even though he is the greatest reincarnation of his aunt Shelley’s thespian talent.

BACKGROUND
Falko is the starving artist looking for his big break, but he is also an idealist who dreams of a more liberal Cheliax and chafes under repression. This became clear when, unable to leverage his aunt’s fame to secure a role in a paying play, and facing terrible debts coming to term, Falko enrolled in the militia as an aspirant dottari. He hated the experience, serving as the face and arm of an unjust law. He met his mentor during a raid, where he came face to face with the portrait of confident defiance he hopes to become one day. Instead of arresting the Cayden priest named Voltaire, he hid him and let him use his appartment for several months. What followed was a confusing mess of bachanals punctuated with deep religious experiences where he connected with his inner faith, until Voltaire disappeared as suddenly as he appeared, taking half of Falko’s wealth with him…
