 About VareseVARESE:
Campaign: In the Darkest Times Name: Varese Sarabande Race: Human Class/Level: Monk 1 / Wizard 4 Alignment: Lawful Good Deity: - Hit Dice: 1d8 + 4d6 Favoured Class: Wizard Varese was born and raised in a remote monastery in the strange Humming Hills country. He was one of the few chosen infants in a generation to be sacrificed by local villagers to tread the mystic path in that high retreat. Trained to be silent, meditative and obedient - Varese fared well as a young disciple. Deep in the hold of the monastery - within the massive stone walls of its keep there is an ancient library. Within that sanctum young acolytes with a knack for letters would study with Loremaster Ingleon. The Loremaster quickly recognized the brilliance of the boy and slowly introduced him to the rare treasures of the library. Arts and crafts were also tought at the monastery. From a very early age the young Varese was taken by the bells and chimes used by the monks -and he eagerly took on an apprenticeship with the glocksmith Kligaal. He was an enthusiastic understudy. Bells and chimes were used to signal the various times of day and focus the collective work of the brethren. The chimes were made to have special sonic properties so that their peals would sound through the valley. Sometimes the vibrations would trigger the weird crystalline sounds which made the hills famous. Varese was fascinated. Some of his superiors admonished him. These bells are made for the purpose of ordering the lives of the supplicants. Any adornment or variation was seen as dissonance - and heresy. But in dissonance Varese found something special - something he he would strive to master for the rest of his life - MAGIC! Thus began Varese' career in wizardy. It was not always easy. As long as he lived in the cloister he had to keep his studies somewhat secret. And there were wars to fight and duties to perform. When he came of age Varese took his leave - with the blessings of his brothers and sisters - and embarked on the long adventures of an itinerant wizard. Varese is very much more worldly now. He cherishes the traditions of his childhood, but he is his own man....with his own ambitions. He has taken his talent to new heights by creating some truly wondrous devices which exploit the principles of frequency and controlled dissonance in magic. But his work has left him cash poor...and magic is an expensive calling. So that's why he came to Royaletown. This - they say - is where the movers and shakers go to find the lucre....
DESCRIPTION:
Varese is long and thin. About 30 - 35 years. He is dressed in the grey habit of a cloistered monk from the hill country. A metal-tipped, long wooden staff is propped onto his shoulder, the lower end is held steady by his leg - wrapped around it. His leather boots curl up at the toes fashionably. He has penetrating blue eyes, which - though they are not directed at anything in particular - seem to see be taking in every last detail of the comings and goings in the area. A blue scarf is carefully wrapped about his head....and seems fastened by some sort of metal brooch near his left ear.
Aside from his pack, which sits at his side, he wears - in a leather baldric - a great horn tipped with silver that hangs close by his side.
