Recently I've teamed up with a class mate, Aiken. He's alright. Perhaps a little too fond of wine, women and song, but he's a good fellow. He's also from the nobles district. He has an adopted sister, (long story) called Jennike, who's kind of weird. Her mind's totally set to the ways of the nature and she's always doing things without ever thinking before hand. She apparently saved a hurt aerie, sometime, because she's (the aerie that is, who's called Cinnamon, by the way) always around. Cinnamon is somehow almost less strange than Jennike, but that might be because she's an arcane spellcaster and has an interest in things technical. A very good choise. | Recently I've teamed up with a class mate, Aiken. He's alright. Perhaps a little too fond of wine, women and song, but he's a good fellow. He's also from the nobles district.

Lately I've been testing a new pistol and has so far had mixed results. It's been prone to failure, even when the gun powder is dry. I fear that there might be some problems keeping the gun powder dry at sea, but that's just something that will have to be overcome. I've also been bothered by just too many bugs when outside of town. In all honesty, Sasserine isn't free from them either, but it's much worse out there.

As a "white dagger" of that affiliation I have access to some resources like books and a lab that's been of great aid. | Lately I've been testing a new pistol and has so far had mixed results.

Lady Red
So, you want to know more about me?
Well, there's not that much to tell. As you can see, I have slightly curly deep red, auburn hair and marbled green eyes. I'm quite tall, 5'11". That's taller than most women, but I might be a little wanting in fyllighet... but my style of dressing show me very favorably. Some people get the idea that the dresses I usually wear isn't very practical. They couldn't be more wrong! It's harder for cut-purses to reach. People keep their distance. You can hide a lot of equipment in the skirts and they're fantastically beautiful. It's also high fashon, only it's not known in these outskirts of civilisation.
I'm 21 years old and I was born here in Sasserine, in the nobles district. I've been studying magic at the academy right here. There's nothing as good as learning. All I really want is knowledge. Perhaps a really good wine with aged cheese... no, not even that is better than knowledge. Sadly the old teachers at the academy is very static/boring/stale. They have no concept of renewal, of thinking new thoughts. Always same old mouldy ways. But I didn't tell them that I'm smarter than they are, to their face, so I did well. What's it to you anyway?
Recently I've teamed up with a class mate, Aiken. He's alright. Perhaps a little too fond of wine, women and song, but he's a good fellow. He's also from the nobles district. He has an adopted sister, (long story) called Jennike, who's kind of weird. Her mind's totally set to the ways of the nature and she's always doing things without ever thinking before hand. She apparently saved a hurt aerie, sometime, because she's (the aerie that is, who's called Cinnamon, by the way) always around. Cinnamon is somehow almost less strange than Jennike, but that might be because she's an arcane spellcaster and has an interest in things technical. A very good choise.
Then there's the last member in our small clique who's called Peter Blood. He's not at all educated in the ways of behaving and it's not entirely due to his rural background. Apparently he used to work for Aikens family, or something like that. He's old fashioned in his use of bow and arrow, but might not be a hopeless case as he has at least tried out a new rifled musket Cinnamon made for him. An interesting character, that little aerie.
Lately I've been testing a new pistol and has so far had mixed results. It's been prone to failure, even when the gun powder is dry. I fear that there might be some problems keeping the gun powder dry at sea, but that's just something that will have to be overcome. I've also been bothered by just too many bugs when outside of town. In all honesty, Sasserine isn't free from them either, but it's much worse out there. To solve this problem I've been trying to create a new spell, but it's not yet finished. In that research I have been aided by Witchwardens, Sasserine's main magical guild. As a "white dagger" of that affiliation I have access to some resources like books and a lab that's been of great aid. Other than that I collect maps. So far my collection is quite limited, but there are some I've been allowed to copy. Some I had to make two copies, one for me and one for the owner. There's a sad tradition amongst seafarers to only write down rutters, but sometimes that will have to do.
Haven't you heard enough? Well, well... What else? I have a strong calling to travel, to see new things, broadening my horizons. Around here the only way to travel with any kind of class is by boat. We have lately been helping a Lady Lavinia Vanderboren. To my delight she is preparing for a voyage to the old fabled Isle of Dread. I've come across it's name in my earlier studies and all I've learned about it makes me more curious.
Member of the Witchwardens, and Dawn Council affiliation.
Wizard fifth level.
Projects:
Red's Repellant (Keep away bugs)
Red's Riddle Resolver (Give bonus to Decipher Script) - Done!
