Characters
A growing repository of homebrew characters and NPCs ready to drop into your campaigns.
Nella Lightfoot — Message-Runner of Edgewood Garrison
Small, fast, and stubbornly reliable, Nella Lightfoot carries Edgewood Garrison's dispatches to Greenbranch and Brightcrown and back -- and knows shortcuts through the Weald she's never told the garrison about.
Knight-Sergeant Bastian Grier — Drillmaster of Edgewood Garrison
The steady discipline underneath Edgewood Garrison's calm, Knight-Sergeant Bastian Grier drills every rotating warden until a raised alarm becomes instinct instead of panic -- and privately carries every name he's ever trained.
Elowen Fenwick — Scout of Edgewood Garrison
The quiet, watchful edge of Edgewood Garrison's defense, Elowen Fenwick ranges the border toward Sorrowind Pass and the Saltspray marshes, confirming with her own eyes what the tower's pennants can only guess at from a distance.
Brother Ansel Thorwood — Field Chaplain & Medic of Edgewood Garrison
Half chaplain, half battlefield medic, Brother Ansel Thorwood tends Edgewood Garrison's small twin-shrine chapel and stitches up whatever the border throws at it -- treating friend, stranger, and doubt with the same steady hands.
Wynne Hargrove — Quartermaster of Edgewood Garrison
The steady hand behind Edgewood Garrison's stores and guest barracks, Wynne Hargrove keeps wardens fed, travelers sheltered, and the fort's dwindling supplies stretched exactly as far as they need to go.
Greta Ironwood — Village Blacksmith of Greenbranch
Greenbranch's blacksmith Greta Ironwood keeps every plow and hinge in the village running -- and lately, keeps the militia's mended blades holding an edge, with a quiet stockpile of her own she hasn't told anyone about.
Denn Colter — Militia Watch of Greenbranch
The young, worried face behind Greenbranch's own Militia Post counter, Denn Colter hands out honest maps, keeps the missing-persons list current, and quietly doubts his commander more than he'd ever admit.
Lorian — Travelling Merchant of the Verdant Weald
Greenbranch's own trade-route merchant, Lorian plies the risky roads of the Verdant Weald with a mule, a scale, and a ledger that hides more generosity than his haggling lets on.
Pip Quillfeather — Storyteller of Greenbranch
Greenbranch's evening storyteller, Pip Quillfeather keeps the village's memorial dead honored and its legends -- including a certain gnoll's -- growing a little taller with every telling.
Sariah Linden — Village Elder of Greenbranch
Greenbranch's quiet backbone: half-elf village elder Sariah Linden holds a real seat on Brightcrown's rural affairs council, keeping the Weald's oldest village heard in the halls of the kingdom that claims it.
Adaline Brushwood - Painter & Gallery-Keeper of the Artisans' Ward
Meet Adaline Brushwood, the human painter and gallery-keeper whose honest portraits and rotating exhibitions anchor the Artisans' Ward's art scene -- a warm, unflinching NPC for patronage, festivals, and quiet integrity.
Hesper Stallwright - Coordinator of the Makers' Market
Meet Hesper Stallwright, the halfling coordinator whose ledger and whistle keep the Artisans' Ward's Makers' Market running fair and orderly -- a brisk, warm NPC for market disputes and everyday Brightcrown business.
