Taryon Darrington

Gleaming, resplendent, and overflowing with indefatigable confidence, Taryon Gary Darrington is every bit the man he was when he parted ways with Vox Machina over twenty years ago. These days, though, all the bravado and good cheer he had two decades ago is real—not just an act. Tary doesn't need to fake it anymore; he's made it. Even if responsibility doesn't come easily to him, he takes it whenever he has to.

After the Epilogue

After many years running the Darrington Brigade—his heroic adventuring band—and publishing several absolutely true accounts of their exploits, Taryon realized his adventuring checklist was essentially complete. He left his home in Deastok, in Wildemount's Dwendalian Empire, and began a new chapter of his life. Leaving the brigade in the capable hands of his sister, Maryanne, and his confidant Lionel Gayheart, Taryon traveled around launching several smaller "satellite" brigades in Wildemount's most dangerous lands.
Then, realizing he had spent his career as a writer of nonfiction adventure books, he decided to try his hand at fiction instead. With his trusty scribe and majordomo Doty X at his side ("Doty Ten", he patiently explains to anyone who mispronounces it), Taryon and his husband Lawrence moved to the Menagerie Coast, setting up a small writing cottage in Port Damali. While Lawrence tutors local students, Taryon has been dashing off novel after novel. His most successful books are a series called The Deastok Mysteries, which feature a young, handsome blond boy who solves crimes around Wildemount with his brilliant intellect and trusty robot sidekick.
From time to time, Taryon charters a skyship to visit his old friends in Whitestone and enjoy the memories of their time together as full-fledged members of Vox Machina.

The Automatic Scribe, Doty

Doty X is much like past models of Tary's mechanical servant—vaguely humanoid but not too expressive. The new model is sleek and stylish, and not built for battle. Doty's vocabulary has grown to six words: Tary, Yes, Correct, Absolutely, Soon, and Handsome. The scribie also features a built-in shelf of Taryon's favorite books—that is, his favoirte books that he's written himself—in case Taryone needs to make a sale while he's on holiday.

Family Ties
