By the sacred blood of my forebears, since

“
I took up my family’s rightful title eighteen
years ago, I have exercised my office without
fail, and never has anyone presumed before to
ask me anything of the sort. Explain to me
then, bird of ill omen, why it is that I should
leave my fair Domain to wander the roads in
your company.
”
ou are the epitome of the law, and it is your duty to enforce it in your barony. You like to think you rule your sub-
Y jects with the proverbial iron hand in a velvet glove. It has been long since last you had to take up the sword to
enforce one of your edicts, but you still enjoy dispensing justice in the great audience chamber bedecked with your
colors. The sight of the black and red doublet covering your broad shoulders is known throughout your lands, and
your vassals tremble when you thoughtfully finger your red moustache. After years of practicing your office, you are
indisputably an admirable lord. Draped in your great cloak, you roam your lands as often as you can, and hunt with
fervor and passion. You enforce feudal law with no particular pleasure, striving to be fair and just.

our form, clad in its thick frieze coat, is known throughout the region. You are fully aware that you are a vessel
Y of knowledge. You hope to always push back illiteracy and support learning, and you advocate ceaselessly the vir-
tues of reading. You are the one to turn to when confronted by ignorance. With your iron skullcap on your head, you
like to settle for long hours of uninterrupted work in the study where your Dancer so likes to sprawl on an antique
lectern. There you have the leisure to unroll the scrolls you bought from passing merchants. The only noise that dis-
turbs the quietness of your contemplation is the soft chiming of your own arm-rings.

D in intricate plated armor that covers you from head to toe, you enjoy boldly wandering the city streets. You wield
the great double-handed axe and the bastard sword with equal skill. Very few would ever dare tackle an adversary such
as you. Solid and stubborn, you are not well liked by the population but your reputation lets you carry out your fear-
some work in a leisurely manner. Silent and alone, you pace the wide cobblestone streets of your city, never replying
to the strained greetings from the leading citizens that cross your path. Sometimes, when
jeered at by mischievous youngsters, you drive them away by placing a huge hand on
the impressive hilt of your axe, with its ebony-back pommel. You
are feared and despised in silence. Misfortune befalls the dis-
respectful. The odor of blood fills your muzzle.

our tongue is the only weapon you have mastered to perfection, for your battle is one of commerce and profit,
and one you fight with a great competence. You prefer to surround yourself with a few mercenaries to ensure your
protection and leave you free to devote yourself entirely to matters of trade. You usually carry a small whip, more as
a symbol of your position than a weapon. As your business is going well, you are easy-going and good-natured. You
never hesitate to ostentatiously spend your money, sometimes spending ou-
trageous amounts to put up new trading posts -always expanding your
network- or to refit your luxurious residence in the heart of the city. You al-
ways make sure to carry out your side of bargains, and host lavish parties,
which are the talk of the town, to curry favors with the high and mighty. You
have a gift for mockery, and earning your displeasure can make your victim
a permanent laughingstock. Nevertheless, you are amiable and a pleasant
traveling companion.

ou are the chieftain of the bold Chulainn tribe. Your appearance illustrates your status. Finely wrought leather gives
you effective protection, though it is mostly your skill with the two-handed sword that has made you what you are
today. You respect the traditions your ancestors have taught you, but you feel the longing of a life of adventure, and you
know that one day you will forsake your rights as a chieftain to go hunting for an ancient secret. You perceive this as
your destiny, and being a fatalistic barbarian, you stand ready to face it, even though it will make you a traitor in the
eyes of your whole clan. But this matters little compared with the
exhilarating prospect of uncovering the secrets of steel, and going
into battle while chanting a savage war song.

our mundane weapon is a truncheon and you

Y wield as a staff, but you tend to prefer the arts of
the mind. Although you sometimes wear a
thin and ancient chain mail, your small size
is your best protection against physical at-
tacks. Even though you are frail, you have trave-
led throughout your whole region. You are fond
of isolated and secret places, such as grottoes
or deep crypts. There you can practice your
talents as a painter and as a midwife for
insolent and sullen blades. You have gained
solid experience and you have learned to mistrust
most of the creatures that cross your path. You are
taciturn and refrain yourself from speaking
openly about your talents. However, your blood
still boils when you are faced by a mystery.

Stop shouting, fools ! I want ten men

“
down to free the rowers who are still chai-
ned. All others, man the sails. To the hatch,
quick ! T hrow those dead bodies overboard. Get to
work, you rascals, or I’ll personally take care of
your hides ! T here is a good supply of food in the
hold, and weapons aplenty for all of you. T his ship
was conveying swords and other equipment for the
Keshites living on the coast. T here are enough of us to
man this ship... and to fight ! You have rowed as chai-
ned slaves for these Modehan dogs. Will you row as free men
for me ?
”
ith a kerchief on your head and a cutlass in hand, you like to
W stand in the riggings and feel the open sea air on your tanned
skin. You have been sailing since you could barely walk and the sea holds no
more secrets from you. The only thing you dream of is chartering a ship to
explore an unknown sea and find countless treasures to bring back to honor
the Helm. You are reckless, but you have learned to temper your fiery spi-
rit enough to lead the crew you recruited, with which you would be ready
to go even into the Abyss, if that were needed to ensure your ship’s welfare. You
are brave and your worst fear is to be stranded on dry ground.
 Please, my lord, do not fluster yourself so. Calm yourself. There you go. Let’s sit down here and quietly
“
discuss this state of affairs. Don’t be afraid of my poor little snakes – they are absolutely harmless. Why don’t
you lie back and relax on these soft cushions ? T here, now we can continue our little chat. You were just
about to tell me why your ruler is so interested in employing the skills of master assassins. It all sounds so
thrilling. I’m all ears.
”
ressed always in light, soft textiles that outline your bodily charms, you have an aversion for weapons. You pre-
D fer to place your trust in the empathic link that unites you with the quietly hissing snakes on your head. With
similar reasoning, you would rather rely on your knowledge of poisons to settle an argument. Wrapped in the folds
and sculpted edges of your great cape, you engender conspiracies and intrigues. It is your nature, and life would just
seem so dull without the excitement of unexpected meetings, or the vital information to be gleaned from courtly gos-
sip. A network of contacts keeps you directly in touch with the corridors of power. You can flaunt your ability to gain
entry anywhere, but all this has its price, which you never forget to pay, for you know otherwise the punishment would
come with no warning. Thus, every month you pass a quota of intelligence to your contacts.

”
hen you are not fanning the hearth of your forge or
W quenching a blade, you practice swinging the impressive
warhammer that you boast of being able to raise with only one
hand. You carry it in battle, along with the shiny plate armor you
fashioned yourself. Everyone in the city knows you, and your
renown is on par with the perfection of your work. Devoted and
punctilious, you have earned enough faithful customers to sell
your work at the price it deserves. You enjoy the smell of the forge,
with its subtle blend of sweat and scorching embers. For you, true
happiness is putting a scalding blade on an anvil and vigorously
swinging your hammer while crooning your former clan’s dis-
tinctive dwarven song.
 Creature, there is a taint of evil upon you, as upon all minions of your master. T hat is why I enjoy
“
hearing you whimper and beg for my pity when I have you on the tip of my sword. It is truly a great
pleasure, but not nearly so great as the frenzy I feel when in the heart of furious battle.
Ah, how sweet it is to devote one’s life to warfare !
”
ou are a true master of combat. For now, you wear a bluish metal armor
Y adorned with pointed spikes on the shoulders. Hotheaded and aggressive,
you do not tolerate anyone treading on your toes, and you make sure
everybody knows it. Your nights out frequently end in the local
prison, with your jailers waiting for you to sober up. Your repu-
tation as hardened mercenary, and your combat skills, allow you
to avoid serious consequences from your frequent lawbreaking.

My beloved, I scoured so many paths and overcame

“ so many trials to come to your side ! I can conceive
of no greater reward than the sweetness of your lips,
and no greater cure for all my weariness
than snuggling against your bosom with
your arms around me, so that
I can think of nothing but you.
”
our great harp is your only visible weapon. Indeed, your one dagger
Y is in the traveling-bag on your back. Moreover, the only protection
you have is your motley suit and your feathered hat. You go from city
to city as a courtly poet, telling unforgettable epics to lords and their
retinues. You particularly appreciate an intimate atmosphere that
enables you to express your high spirits and your talent as a nar-
rator. Your behavior is often the cause of much jealousy be-
cause rare are the women that do not fall under your
charm. You are frequently expelled forcibly for having se-
duced a lord’s wife.
 Pretty bauble ye have there, friend. I’m afraid ye’ll have to do without it. Sees ye, for if I put a bit
“
more weight on me hand, I believe yer throat’ll be cut as clean as a chicken’s. So, be ye rather alive and
destitute or die quickly and be just as destitute ? Make up yer mind. Hurry up !
”
wathed in a big vest of dark leather, you move lithely and silently. It is very hard to get a glimpse of your features
S beneath your hood, especially since you like to stay in the darkest places, where you seem to merge with your sur-
roundings and become almost invisible to mortal eyes. You appreciate theft for its own sake and will barely hesitate
to take insane risks if there is hope of laying a hand on a fortune that might safeguard you in your old days.
