NPC Codex

Korrg the Cleaver

Mercenary for hire · Half-Orc

A towering half-orc sellsword with a fearsome reputation and a strict personal code. Expensive, reliable, and entirely uninterested in your moral justifications.

Old Hessa

Village herbalist · Human

The herbalist and unofficial healer of a small village who has delivered half its children and buried a few of its secrets. Sees more than she says.

Lady Orsina Vael

Noble patron · Half-Elf

An elegant noble who funds adventurers for reasons she never fully explains. Generous, gracious, and three moves ahead of everyone at the table.

Whisper

Information broker · Halfling

A halfling who sells what people would rather keep hidden. Never sits with their back to a door, always knows a name, and always wants one in return.

Sergeant Doval Brask

City guard captain · Human

A weathered watch captain who has seen every con in the lower wards. Honest to a fault, slow to anger, and impossible to bribe — though his deputies are another matter.

Mara Vellano

Tavern keeper · Tiefling

The crimson-skinned owner of a dockside tavern who hears every rumor before the city watch does. Trades gossip for a fair price and remembers a kindness as long as a grudge.
