Thelonius Bijou
Soldier of the Frozen Wastes Thelonius Bijou (a.k.a. Warrior of Ice)
Thelonius Bijou fought in the Great Plague War where the Ice Elves conquered their scourged brethren, who were afflicted by an unknown illness that drove them mad, running wildly from ruin to ruin murdering and eating the flesh of innocent civilians. This left the Northern Tribe of Ice Elves very poor, weak, and scattered. Seeking a better life, a change of scenery, and relief from the horrors that occupy his mind, Thelonius left for Wissenheim.
After a long and treacherous journey, a few weeks there with little work opportunities and increasing homelessness, Thelonius found himself selling his ornamental battle armor, weapons, to the Traders' Guild for scraps, and doing whatever oddjobs & manual labor were available, often for little pay or scraps to eat.

Another Day, Another Job
It seems that my traveling companions are, at the moment, some very noble and honorable persons.
Neo seems like a particularly ravenous individual. I don't typically gamble; but I really should have known he would win that fight, and put some money down on him. I have seen many scams before where they give you an easy fight, then they ask you to go double or nothing with someone much stronger and you lose all your money. To be honest I've seen such scams more often than actual fights, which is why I chose not to place a bet. Maybe I could have been more generous in my opinion of such establishments.
Kaal is very mysterious, and I'm not quite sure what to think of him. He is an enigma, surely, and shrouded in omens. The elves used to speak of such beings, an old wives tale, to be sure, but apparently a true one.
Garbod & Goud are people I can get along with. Just generally good people. They remind me much of some of my friends in the North who died in the war. I look forward to many drinks to come with such people.
Bilbod is a strange one, but he likes drink, and so do I. I must take more time to learn more about him.
For the time being, I believe I can trust them. We will see how far this trust goes.
It has been a very long time since I have been able to trust anyone. Most people would have never given me the money from our past two jobs, instead only scraps.
I have more money now than I've ever had since leaving the North.
A few more months of this and perhaps I can track down my old armor & weapons and buy them back.
I am very suspicious of the elves in this area. They seem to be attempting to start a war with the other races, or at the very least incite violence in an attempt to have them removed from the area.
Such racism is not something I am used to in the North, as we never saw many other races, however many of the elves who live up North prefer the company of other elves, and I understand why. Many of these humans are not to be trusted in the slightest. It is as if they live for war, wealth, and power.
I am also very suspicious of such sailors as can be found in the Warrens. They appear very rough around the edges, thuggish brutes who live and act without honor or nobility, living by some obscure personal code rather than the laws of their districts. A good relationship with these types may be fortuitous, but I must stay wary of their hidden intentions. I am not sure I am off to a good start, and I must work on my negotiating skills.
Wicked Creatures & The Dwelling of the Depraved
What a strange series of events.. these crazed people have led me to a large building where the ruffians stay.
Inside in the depths of the basement, they keep some manner of wicked creatures that the Father of Death himself would scorn from this world. Luckily, we needed not interact with them.
We found some interesting trinkets which might sell for a decent price.
We also took one of the criminals alive.
The Traders' Guild has rewarded us nicely for our efforts.
My companions have spared me some gold.
It's not much, but I will eat for another day.
I fear I may have been too short with my traveling companions. My life has been hard. Trusting others does not come easily to me. I was ready to meet death in battle, but they saved me. Whether this was a blessing or a curse, that is yet to be decided.
strangers in the night
I met some strangers today, scrapping with some ruffians. They are my best chance at making some coin. They are acquainted with the Traders' Guild. I have nothing left to lose.
They spoke of the voice. What dark magic could this be? What sorcery could cause thousands of people to hear the same voice?
My mind is racing. I believed the Father of Death had called out to me. Could this be false? Could it have been some crazed sorcerer, locked in some tower on the other side of the world? Seeking to destroy my mind, and drive me mad?
Perhaps the father of death has plans for me. Perhaps he does not wish to meet me yet.
