Summerstrider of Waterdeep Starchild

Drug-addled old sorcerer who is a bit too in tune with chaos. Suffering from memory loss after many years abroad, he came back to Waterdeep to uncover his past (but seems to have gotten distracted from that goal). Possibly used to be a dark wizard.

Appearance

Physical Description

Classic old man strength. Not unhealthy, but sure not a good look.

Facial Features

Only ever seen wearing sunglasses, due to intensely sensitive eyes. Has a tattoo of an eye on his forehead.

Identifying Characteristics

The tattoo and sunglasses would make him stand out on their own, but he can also be identified as “the little old man surrounded by smoke shouting about the government”.

Physical quirks

Generally carrying a lit pipe, which he is VERY careless about ashing.

Apparel & Accessories

He has a fairly large wardrobe, but most of it conforms to a few broad themes: earth tones, loose fitting, and fraying. He is also quite fond of wide-brimmed floppy hats, but not particularly fashionable ones.

Mentality

Education

He seems to know how to read and write, though not particularly well. He can struggle through a paragraph in about 5-10 minutes, and usually get the general gist of what was written.

Employment

Since returning to Waterdeep, has mostly gotten buy doing odd jobs and acting as a roadie for different bands.

Accomplishments & Achievements

Somehow, Starchild has begun rising in the ranks of the Waterdeep Emerald Enclave. Theoretically, his strikingly careless use of fire magic may prove an impediment towards this progress at some point in the future.

Failures & Embarrassments

Everyday.

Mental Trauma

Surprisingly little since losing his memory.

Intellectual Characteristics

Reminiscent of a goldfish in his capacity for learning and knowledge.

Morality & Philosophy

He has a vague sense of wanting to help those around him, but this tends to be counterbalanced by his tendency to pursue his first instinct in any given situation.

Known Languages

Common, Elven, and Dwarfish.

Personality

Motivation

If he were to actually sit down and think about his goals, he might remember that he came to Waterdeep to try and rediscover his past. In practice, he mostly seems to just like hanging out with the Troll Slayers, or pursuing the nearest source of entertainment.

Quotes & Catchphrases

“I don’t really remember what happened, but I’m pretty sure I had a good time.”

Savvies & Ineptitudes

Good at talking his way out of trouble, bad at staying out of trouble.
