Background:
Harkon was born and raised in a small dwarven settlement in Five Kings Mountains. His parents were great artisans and all of his siblings leaned that way as well. But Harkon was different. Even as a child he loved reading history books and adventures, especially those concerning mysteries, conspiracies and similar topics. Instead of focusing on the family trade he spent all his waking hours daydreaming about becoming a successful and well-known investigator of dark deeds.
His father saw that Harkon was not really cut to be an artisan and decided his son needed more guidance and stronger regime than he was willing and able to offer. He considered many possibilities but upon taking into account his son’s predispositions and interests decided to send him for training to the church of Abadar. As the settlement was close to the borders with Andoran, the father thought perhaps the best for Harkon to leave Five Kings Mountain and study in the southern state.
Harkon was thrilled by the idea at first and saw it as his first step on the path to fulfilling his dream. The training was quite tedious and Harkon’s personality was never exactly matching the ideal of an average follower of Abadar, but he concentrated on improving his skills and slowly became and able cleric who passed more or less his superior’s scrutiny. But he was restless and eager to solve mysteries even in places where there were none. The head priest knew that Harkon is not yet judge or lawyer material and came to the conclusion that some travel and first-hand experience in the broader world should help Harkon to satisfy his urges and teach him the lessons he needed most.
Given this opportunity Harkon packed his belongings and traveled through Andoran eventually reaching the sea. Here he spent some time in several ports listening to wild stories from sailors and not so wild ones from traveling merchants. What picked his interest the most were the stories from the so called City of Twilight. There was definitely something weird afoot in the city. People disappearing during the night, curfew in affect for many years – this had the right feel for Harkon’s investigative mind. The legends about something called Council of Thieves were surely just that – legends. But something was happening in the once great city and if Harkon could find out what, he should certainly become the well-known investigator from his childhood dreams.
The young dwarf arrived to Westcrown on a merchant ship and after disembarking he walked through the port trying to get a feel for the city. A peculiar thing happened – a woman named Janiven approached Harkon and invited him for a meeting of concerned citizens looking to remove the rule of fear. Certainly this was no coincidence; this was the sign from Abadar that he is on the right track…
