Just in under the wire. Malthraxx is a thiefling, investigator (empiricist)/Fighter (mutagen warrior). He is pretty flexible has good skills (knowledge, face skills, and roguish stuff). In combat he will be able to help on the frontlines with tanking & dps. Also, will be able to buff, heal, and status removal by handing out elixirs.
Good luck with your recruitment.
Malthraxx is tall and massive, standing a head over 6 feet tall, broad shouldered and deep of chest, with a massive corded neck and heavily muscled limbs. The tiefling has long and ropey limbs, of corded muscle, that appear too long for his body. His skin is a light olive and is covered in coarse hair that cannot conceal the hard, dangerous lines of his body.
The large tiefling has a face that always looks as if it is full of mischief with a cunning smile that conceals a sharp toothy maw. There is a set of curling ram horns extending from his temples and dark eyes that are as black as the pits of hell, with the predatory gaze of a wolf. His face is framed by bristly, slicked-back, dark, moss colored, hair and a beard the same color with a clean shaven, smirking, upper lip.
The well-muscled, hirsute, long-limbed tiefling has goat like feet and legs with a barbed tail that seems to have a mind of its own. He has a loud grating voice and smells of sulfur as well as other pungent alchemical odors. Malthraxx is usually dressed in black armor with bandoliers crossing his chest and various pouches, containers, and other paraphernalia hanging from his belt and pack.
The weak morning sun peaked through through the east facing windows of the suite Malthraxx perpetually rented at The Ebony Pixie, one of the best inns in Kaer Maga’s Bis District. The hazy light illuminated two shelved walls, which were lined with books, charts, memorabilia, and nefarious looking alchemical equipment. While the north wall was taken up by a tapestry depicting a map of Varisia with strange markings in an ancient script denoting important locations. All of that was overshadowed by an oversized mahogany desk. The massive desk is covered with neat little stacks of parchment, an ink well, and a stack of leather bound books.
Looking out of place, behind the desk, sat Malthraxx, the tiefling, who, if anything, made the desk look smaller. The hulking tiefling drank from a snifter full of Taldan Fire-Brandy while he fingered through the papers in front of him. His broad shoulders slumped in resignation as he realized he would be spending his day sitting behind this desk.
Reluctantly, he moved on to his correspondence reading through the various letters. He frowned and reread the paper in his hand. He placed the parchment down and rifled through another stack of papers on his desk. He found what he was looking for and compared it with the original document. He placed both papers on top of a pile and removed a clean sheet of paper and began writing. After a while he completed his letter and sealed it with wax.
letter
[i]Greetings, my Lady, the most esteemed Kendra Lorrimor,
I hope this missive finds you as well as might be expected under such trying circumstances. My condolences on the passing of your father Petros. The dark news was unexpected and unwelcome, it has shaken me to the core, I fear evil times lie ahead.
Foremost, I must express my sincere apologies for not being able to attend my good friend’s funeral as your missive was delayed and the date already passed. It is my hope that you were surrounded by companions that could comfort you in your time of mourning. Rest assured, I am on my way, leaving on the morrow.
When I arrive I hope to converse with you privately about rumors regarding your father’s passing. I dare not put more to pen and paper as there is no telling whose eyes might spy upon this page. Currently, I am re-examining the information and will apprise you of my findings upon my arrival.
Your loyal servant, Malthraxx
Malthraxx placed the sealed letter aside and finished his snifter of brandy. He sat back, as his thoughts turned to the past and Professor Petros Lorrimor
I’ll format this info if selected and purchase equipment.
