Character: Flynn Whiteswan

Flynn was always an adventurer, wanting to see the world and experience more then the city of Varanath could give him. He was adept at the blade, being trained by a Blademaster of some renown, as well as skilled with the art of stealth. Art and music came easy to him, as did the art of conversation. When he was old enough, he joined the Crystal Brigade, but as a spy. It was in this capacity he met Jamilia. As a bard he'd had many a fling, but Jamilia was his most beloved. And when he learned of Kenna's intended birth he was doubly enamored. Though he told Kenna he was his favorite child, she was truly his only child. He intended to eventually take the pair away to Varanath, but mysteriously disappeared right before Kenna's sixteenth birthday.

Flynn is a half elf, though he looks human for all intensive purposes. He is five foot and four inches and around one hundred sixty pounds. He is trim, though muscular, very athletic. His face is oval, but with a strong chin and no pointed ears. His skin is tan and his eyes are ice blue and slightly oval in shape. His hair is light blond, almost white, which he keeps in a shoulder length pony tail.

Flynn dresses like a flop in the city, but more muted browns and greens when he is traveling. He is always at the height of style while in town. He is an elegant speaker and can modulate his voice to fit the occasion. And he can speak street trash with the best of them.

Flynn is happy, easy going person who is helpful and outgoing, but hates wizards and ogres with a passion.

More of a background character, he is twisted and tied to so many aspects of the series. It's amazing at how many people seem to know this man who's a simple bard's father. Your PC's could meet him on the road and he could give them a rumor to point them into the direction of somehow helping the soon to be High King or keep them out of trouble. He isn't above using other people to help the Kingdom of Tridon and her future High King.
Tomorrow: Poor Housing of Bloodhelm
