Ser Dominic Longbarrel (a.k.a. The Radiant Hand)
Personal History
The founding father of House Longbarrel's story is one wrapped in mythology and mystery. It is said that Dominic was born as a poor Halfling in 'The Puddles' located in the city of Absalom. Who his parents were is also unknown, it is as if he was spawned from the nether. At the age of 12 he was the leader of 'The Alley Rats'. A small pick-pocketing ring that was pestering rich Absalonian nobles with it's presence. They only targeted the rich nobles, and proclaimed to be 'The enemy of the wealthy swine.' When he reached young adulthood, at 18, he was caught by the Absalonian guards and was imprisoned for 1.5 years for his past crimes. The sentence was low because most of the crimes committed where when he was a minor. An agreement was also reached with the Absalonian guards that he'd join them and fight for the army, since his sentence was so short. He excelled in swordsmanship, military strategy & quickly adapted to his mentors or enemies moves. It was whispered within the ranks that he might have the eye, blessed by the gods with foresight. At 38 he had made it all the way up to commander in the Absalonian army & managed to amass a fortune. Eventually he was given the title of Count and founded House Longbarrel.Accomplishments & Achievements
Dominic did not found Otari, but he made damn sure that the small settlement felt protected under his house banner. He helped quell a potential political coup where a corrupt politican had tried to bribe the ballot voters. The corrupt politician was thrown in prison for 30 years & then exiled to the Mwangi Expanse, never to return to Avistan. He helped finance a political movement held by females of Otari, so they also had a political presence in the city. He also helped fund two schools in Otari. While he might've been count of the region, he never once raised the taxes for the population.Failiures & Embarrassments
In his later days when he was sparring with his friend, he twisted his foot pretty badly and was bedridden for weeks. During this period is when he took up heavy drinking that eventually became his addiction that would lead to his demise.Relationships
