Godann (Go-Dan)
The following character was created with the help of Seth K.
"Food cost money, a bed cost money, everything cost money. Lucky for Godann he knew the secret to money, drunk travelers! Riverweld was full of them, and all he needed to do was a little canal side performance and before too long people would be filling his donation box with silver and gold. He just needed the right tavern. Then with a few carefully plucked strings and jaunty tunes he could just wait for people to drink themselves into generosity. Riverweld was also the perfect jumping off point to far flung destinations and lost temples of Jangala, the temples of Ter'A-Til, or mines of Dun Bok. So, naturally it was full of people that were flush with cash. One particular evening Godann was plying his musical trade at an inn called the Musky Dragon. The night was going well, he had already made enough to cover a room for the night and enjoy a fine meal. When he finished his set the crowd applauded politely and he stepped off the stage to take a break. He was then confronted by a hooded man bearing the sigil of the Arcanum. The home of the wizards in Riverweld. Godann had never considered himself a wizard. He knew that he was using magic, but he never really enjoyed the type of stuffy academic study that wizards represented. His magic came from the soul. Just like his old circus companions had taught him."
