”He started as a soft boy, but now he is a GREASY FUCK”

- Our bard

Luukas acquired information on a dungeon that could possibly make his problems go away but needed help to conquer it. So he enlisted the help of Piski, the local gang leader with the necessary strenght, but a mistake led to failure. Luukas fled the scene when things turned sour, leaving Piski and her men to their own devices and making yet another enemy. Still dreaming of the treasures inside the dungeon, Luukas stayed in the local village waiting for the right people to try again with. Then one day, our party and he crossed paths.

As a man with many plans of varying quality, Luukas' actions are thought out but rarely that far ahead. He puts great trust in his ability to read people and make use of them, but also has a knack for making enemies. He doesn't see people as good or bad, himself included, but has a thin line that he thinks nobody should cross. Although Luukas has an easy-going attitude towards life and people, his strive for self-preservation leaves him usually unable to form lasting relationships. He is dissatisfied with his current situation as someone who can't plan ahead or act freely due his past, and is actively searching a way to change the status quo.

if you die in dnd its your dm’s responsibility to break into your house in the middle of the night and kill you in real life

Piki is a timid, reserved half-drow druid who has lived most of his life secluded in the nature as a hermit. This has resulted in him being often oblivious to social expectations and awkward in many conversations. Piki values peace, personal space and nature over monetary riches.

Due to his background and childhood, Piki has a strong impression that people will not trust him because of his appearance. This has led to almost obsessive habit of dressing up in layers to hide every possible bit of skin to appear more ‘normal’, which ironically makes him just more suspicious. Under all his layers Piki is just a young half elf with bad posture who really needs to learn how to take in account the people around him, trust them and trust them to trust him.

Piki’s strengths include dodging conflicts, making friends with animals, picking up languanges and intel on the go and keeping secrets. He dislikes crowded, open places and bright lights. He often freezes when conforted, even if he has prepared an explanation beforehand. Piki occasionally has his moments of spunk, which he sometimes ends up regretting. In his comfort zone, Piki is eager to impress and prove himself to others.

Piski is a local ruffian that serves as a main antagonist in our first story arc. Nobody really knows who she is or what she looks like, except that she’s a drow and has an appetite for anything profitable. She runs a gang that has had a big part in turning the local community inside out in a short amount of time, creating a hostile enviroment towards outsiders. Pre-campaign Piski made an ill-advised deal with Luukas, an elf who needed help conquering a peculiar dungeon, that left her with two dead crewmembers, only four fingers in her left hand and a burning hate for Luukas. The party got roped in the mess and tries to find a way out without getting themselves killed.

Not the one to reel away from even the the most dubious of jobs, Piski sees herself as a businesswoman first and foremost. Rough, smug and silver-tongued, she’s open for compromises during a tight spot but has little patience for failure or complications. She can be the most powerful ally or a dangerous enemy, in some cases both at the same time. To truly know Piski you must earn her respect and trust, given only to a few people in her life.
