A Terran Rogue's Gallery [1e/2e]

[khyron1144]

So, I'm going to start culling the main campaign setting thread of NPC stats/write-ups.  This first batch was mainly intended to be potential pre-gen PCs or NPC henchmen, but I might actually use this thread to start actually working out more on some important NPCs of the setting one of these days.  If you have ideas, go ahead and contribute too.

Bio:  Claudius is the only child of a very minor branch of the Emerald family:  He is approximately 215th in line for the Senatorship and keenly aware of his relative lack of prestige.  Knowing that he will not attain prestige by fair means, Claudius has taken up the foul pursuit of assassination and done well thus far.
Cassia, Claudia, and Octavia are second cousins and somewhat closer to the Senatorship at only about a hundred places removed.  They've never met their cousin Claudius and are unaware of his existence.  Claudius is actually discreetly trying to spy on them to determine whether pursuing a marriage with Octavia would be worth it for the boost in family prestige.
If asked about what he does for a living, Claudius claims to be a military operative.  This is not entirely a lie; during the Freeland War, Claudius eliminated officers on both sides of the conflict for pay.  A few Terran Empire generals still contract Claudius for "targeted personnel removal".

Bio:  Gnarl's history is one of great misfortune.  He was born in a Voadkyn village in southern Jotunheim, near the border with the Barbarian Tribe of the Ram.  A Barbarian warrior-woman adopted him, when her tribe raided Gnarl's village in the mistaken belief that Voadkyn were a dangerous evil variety of Jotun.  A few years later, when he began to grow slightly accustomed to life in the Barbarian Human village; this village was raided by Terran Empire slavers.  Gnarl was sold to a gladiator stable in Terra Prima.  Rodrigo was gambling on one of Gnarl's gladiatorial bouts, when he noted the youthful giant's unusual agility.  He bought Gnarl, freed him, and then took him on as an apprentice Duelist.  Gnarl learned the craft well; although he has completed his apprenticeship and is well on his way to journeyman status, Gnarl prefers to spend his time around Rodrigo.  Gnarl is gentle, kind, and humble.

Bio:  Knobby is a shortened, familiar version of his Gnomish name, used for the convenience of the other sapients he encounters.  As is the Lunar Gnome tradition, Knobby's full name, which reflects twenty generations of genealogical information, is recorded in a book stored in his family homestead on Luna:  it was spoken once in its entirety, at his birth, and will be spoken in its entirety only one more time, at his funeral.  Knobby joined The Gnomish Space Marines to get away from the family homestead and see the Spheres.  His current rotation is as a quartermaster with the logistics department.  His mission is to acquire a large quantity of Smoke Powder on Terra.  He is relaxing at the Queen of Wands after opening negotiations with the owner of the Wiley Alchemist Shop.
