Personal history

Waterdeep born and bred Kithne wasn't big enough to fight his way out of trouble, so he learned to talk his way out of it. He, unfortunately, never learned how to stop talking. This led to a life of scrapping and wiggling out of dangerous situations when attempts to make it big or show up people looking down on him blew up in his face.   A life that nearly came to an end when he crossed the Xanathar, and found himself being hung off the roof by a pair of his enforcers. In a moment of desperation he was able to convince the two Aaracokra to question their motives and team up with him to escape the city.   With a new team and new pressing need to flee the city they booked passage with The Wandering Roost's crew and after a particularly rocky start, a few combat encounters, and an improvised mission to get the airship back from a member of the Baldur's Gate Upper Ring, the trio were accepted by Arri and the rest of the crew.

History

Their relationship started with a very utilitarian aspect. Arri immediately saw the value of having someone who could talk their way into/out of trouble on the crew and Kithne could see the value in being able to run very quickly from whatever trouble he talked himself into. It wasn't until Kithne almost died luring guards away from a warehouse to help get back The Roost, and Arri took the fall and subsequent brutal magical curse for the rest of his crew that the two actually crossed the bridge into respecting each other for who they were.

Frank


History

These two met when Kithnes group joined the crew and almost immediately started hooking up. He's charming and she's hillarious so it works out in a very low stakes way. They're not allowed to be the only ones on watch any more but other than that it's not been an issue. They tend to spend a lot of time together while they're in the air and go see other people while they're docked. They're by no means exclusive but do find an actual comfort with each other during the longer trips.

History

These two butt heads pretty dramatically when they first met. Kithne's constant talking and all nonsense attitude initially clashed with the war veteran mechanic's reliable handle on things but as the only two members of The Roost that couldn't fly (before Arri's curse), they began to bond over the ship and the wider world during the long hours on watch or the stress of handling the ship while the others go out to fight. They now pass the time as a ritual, smoking and playing music while on watch shifts together.

Honest


History

The two started off using each other to get out of a tricky situation but ended up as close friends. Evrec can fight his way out of most situations but has big himbo energy and Kithne knows how to spot a scam and flip it on its head. The two for an extremely strong pairing when sent into the city to handle problems, especially when Gredmar is added to the mix.   They don't have much actually in common except fleeing The Xanathar and working together but there doesn't always need to be more than that.

Honest


History

Raef and Kithne tend to rub each other the wrong way. Raef has very high expectations and thinks Kithne wastes his time and talent on low stakes bullshit. Kithne thinks Raef is spent her entire life as a stick in the mud, got reborn and is still boring in the second life too. But they know that they never would have escaped The Xanathar without the help of the other so under the off hand comments and snipes theres a mutual gratitude and respect.
