[dzidek1983]

Template For Character Creation Reward:

First Name: Merry
Last Name: Burrows

Appearance: Not a pretty sight to see, bald, with several scars, usually wearing some worn out leather armor and cloak, doesn't help him with new affinities. The only thing extraordinary about his appearance is its ordinariness. He carries himself in an understated way, and many people who see his face soon forget it.
Race: Strongheart Halfling
Age: 30
Height: tall for a halfling
Weight: rather skinny
Eyes: brown
Hair: bald
Facial Hair Style: none

Personality Profile: His first appearance doesn't seem to friendly but after a while he turns out to be a light hearted adventurer, not to wise, easy getting in trouble but in the same time there is something in him that allows people to call him friend. He has his own set of rules, even being a rather shady type of person, he would never allow himself to cross that thin line between stealing gold and becoming a cold blooded criminal. His actions often seem random and chaotic to others, but there is a method to his madness.
General Health: Has average health, some minor injuries over the years of thievery.
Deity: Brandobaris
Initial Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Profession: Currently he has no profession, he is good at stealth and is a highly skilled locksmith and trap disabler. You could call him adventurer, but he rather loves gold more then adventures.
Base Class & Proposed Development: Rogue/Assasin
Habits/Hobbies: As a child he liked fishing but now he has no time for it. Currently he developed a bad habit of loosing gold in the dice gambling in Beregost. He also wont say no to a tavern all night party, with girls, definitely with girls.
Languages: Common, Dwarf, Elven
Weapon of Choice: Short Swords and Daggers.

Background: It's hard to be adopted and raised by someone not of your race. He has always been an outsider in society, and in own family. This perspective has sharpened his insight. As a child he grew up on the streets of the Gate. He spent early life robbing and stealing to get by. Hunger was his constant companion, and he often had to live off the land or sleep in the wild. Always smaller then other children he developed a knack for hiding. When someone chipped him on the shoulder he never pushed back, he ran away. Beaten many times, he developed many tricks to survive. But all this painfull situations made him a rather fearfull person that acts hazardly in stresfull situations. He had a knack for getting himself into trouble as a child, and as a result developed a silver tongue at an early age. It isn’t what you say—it’s how you say it. He perfected the art of half-truths in order to accomplish what you need to.
Goals: His goals are really simple, earn gold. He has no interest in becoming famous or powerfull. He knows his place as a poor halfling in a big city. Maybe after his gold hoarding days are over he could open a tavern in the city and host new wannabe adventurers. The place would have lots of preety waitresses. I mean LOTS!!!
Possible Plot-Hook Ideas and Misc Facts: He is really an anonymous person. His true vice is gambling, maybe he would gain a serious debt and fall in trouble with some mobsters. If he ever gets to open that tavern he could have trouble with other tavern owners.
