Deacon’s Background:
Deacon popped up on the Sword Coast, somewhere around the Highharvestide, in the Year of the Spur. So far the little creature has proven himself helpful and inquisitive towards others. While Deacon apparently enjoys conversing and watching the Sword Coast’s denizens, he also appears to keep a certain degree of distance. Deacon has not been seen meddling directly in local affairs, apart from helping the occasional roadbound traveler and playing the occasional prank on the unsuspecting bystander.
Some have referred to Deacon as Elminster, but the small wizard has so far denied any such affiliation. Instead he tells those that would listen that he does not have or wishes to leave such a big imprint on the world. Whether this is merely a joke referring to his small stature remains to be seen.

Deacon’s Goals:
This tiny, bearded and spriteful fellow does not reveal any prevalent or overarching agenda. Though he has expressed his desire to document, in the form of writing; and watch. At times Deacon has been witnessed writing in small booklets, whilst peeking his head out of tree stumps and buckets. Noting down whatever occurs around him.
It seems that Deacon is willing to share his findings, to an extend. Offering enchantments, both written down on scrolls and bestowed on fingerbones. He also happily informs the local populace that he is willing to copy his handbooks, should this prove desirable. Deacon has also been seen enchanting bottled water; resulting in magic potions.

Possible plot-hooks and miscellaneous facts:
While claiming to only be around to watch things; Deacon has expressed a great interest in the doings of the denizens of the Sword Coast. This interest leads some to believe that Deacon might be persuaded to become more directly involded in certain affairs. It is true that Deacon has expressed a desire to aid travelling men and women, by casting protective wards upon them, clearly tilting the balance in the traveller's favour.
More specifically, Deacon has been protecting the protective from the harmful ways of the aggressor. It is not known how Deacon would react if the Men and Elves of the Sword Coast would adopt a more aggressive stance. Recently Deacon has been seen taking interest in the Elves that decided to settle in the Misty Forest, north of Baldur's Gate.
