As a child he was both lazy and curious, with the result that his family thought him more trouble than he was worth. One day, an itinerant herbalist came by the farm, offering an assortment of cures and charms in exchange for a hot meal and permission to sleep in their barn. The stranger took an interest in Alex, recognising his potential to be one of the ‘Blessed Few’, allowing him to possibly become a hedge witch. When the herbalist offered to take their son as an apprentice, Alex’s parents had no objection, though they did not realise he was leaving to train in magic.</p>\n<p>Alex now travels between the villages and farms around Ubersreik, offering his services and collecting rare herbs, which he uses in his potions or sells to @UUID[Actor.N3hGHrY2P51BNTYO]{Cordelia}. He is familiar with the best routes throughout the region, especially for those anxious to avoid the authorities. Unbeknownst to Cordelia, Alex is not picky when it comes to his customers. He has happily provided medicinal aid to bandits, Mutants, and even some Beastmen, who all know him as a useful contact, meaning he is rarely harassed as he travels.</p>"

Like her eight siblings, she was encouraged to attend university at a young age. The young girl became fascinated by medicine, and by 16 had attained one of the finest medical educations Tilea could offer. However, though obviously a prodigy, and considered by some to be Shallya reborn, Giliani was not satisfied, and travelled abroad to learn the medical practices of other Old World realms. She travelled first to other Tilean city states, then through Estalia, into Bretonnia via the port of L’Anguille, into Marienburg, then down the Reik. At the tender age of 19, she found herself in Ubersreik. Like a bloodhound, everywhere the young woman went, she sniffed out charlatans and false diagnoses, only to move on before any acclaim could be brought to her door.</p>\n<p>However, her recent stop may likely be her last. Giliani fell ill whilst investigating the strange plague in the Spittlefeld Tenement Building, right before it was boarded up. Now, dying, she is perhaps the only person who knows the true cause of the illness — though she hasn’t the energy to tell anyone…</p>\n<p>Giliani is a young woman, 5’8”, with dark-brown, curly hair and olive skin. She wears fashionable but simple clothing, well suited to her profession and modest wealth. She carries a bag of medical supplies with her everywhere. Normally the bag would also contain her diary, written in Tilean, but it has been stolen.</p>"

The two urchins were inseparable until their magical talents were discovered and they were dragged to the Colleges of Magic. Whilst Hagerdorn went on to join the Celestial College, Entschlafen’s examiners incorrectly judged his talents as being too dispersed and diluted. Instead of executing the child, they gave him to the College of Light, and condemned him to a life of servitude as a minor Apprentice. However, Entschlafen excelled in this role, becoming one of the finest cantors the College had ever seen, eventually rising to become the personal cantor of the new Supreme Patriarch — Egrimm van Horstmann.</p><p>Horstmann immediately saw the error of Entschlafen’s original instructors, and saw in him the potential to safely channel multiple Winds of Magic. The Supreme Patriarch began to groom Entschlafen, and when his own treachery was revealed, Entschlafen fled with his new master. Now, Entschlafen has turned to his old friend, Hagerdorn, in the hopes of swaying her to Horstmann’s cause, and using her expertise and resources to further their goals.</p><p>Behind pale grey eyes, Entschlafen hides a burning hatred for the life he wasted.

The traders, unable to afford his ravenous appetite, eventually left Gino in the care of an orphanage in Ubersreik. There, the young Ogre was put to work immediately. Gino soon got in with the ‘wrong crowd’, and, as a result, he has been in trouble with the Watch most of his life. After leaving the orphanage, Gino began squatting in the Spittlefeld rookery.

The noble who had fired the shot uncharacteristically cared about his mistake, paying for her care and a replacement for her eye. Long hours sitting with the elderly glassblower who carefully crafted her new eye introduced her to the wonders of glassblowing and the old crafter in turn was taken by the enthusiastic young girl and accepted her as an apprentice. Her crafting skill is such that even the master artisans of @UUID[JournalEntry.TSyoR9nSk7cehypG.JournalEntryPage.A4x3cKwa1h875OlK]{Dawihafen} consult her on works involving glass — an accolade that Humans are rarely afforded. Glazer is well regarded by the folk of Ubersreik and sees much with her one working eye, far more than most reckon. In fact, Glazer acts as an agent for more powerful folk concerned for Ubersreik and may be the one that calls the PCs to their attention.</p><p>For more on Heske Glazer, see @UUID[Compendium.wfrp4e-starter-set.journals.1nxjKAYE9G3Nyk0o]{Making the Rounds}.</p>"

See @UUID[JournalEntry.FQW8EIplgUDGyVMj.JournalEntryPage.FNUQ8x5IRlHMNJQV#thulgrims-tale]{Thulgrim’s Tale} for details concerning his personal grudge against Reuter and Stiegler, and the shame he bears because of it. <strong>Note</strong>: Normally Dwarfs do not enter the Charlatan Career; however, Thulgrim does so for what he feels are necessary reasons. He is fully aware of the stain of dishonour this places upon his good name, and fully intends to pay the price.</p>"

However, he was particularly adept at lying and getting away with being a ‘charming rake’. Despite his success, Vielfrass was a thoroughly contemptible and pathetic young man in his late twenties. He was taller than average with a disciplined soldier’s physique and light brown hair and blue eyes.</p>"

She was raised on the edge of the @UUID[JournalEntry.ozE2DMCMK64eE5pD.JournalEntryPage.hzsgHYLKdpuJXls5]{Grootscher Marshes} in the Wasteland, the daughter of a peat cutter and a milkmaid. Her parents were poor, and had found solace in a Cult of Nurgle that arose in their sleepy hamlet. She was set to be sacrificed to the Lord of Flies when a Witch Hunter rode through the village and put the cult to the sword. In the scuffle, she escaped her bonds and managed to kill the Magus with his own pistol. She carries the gun to this day, and makes sure to execute every cult ringleader she encounters with a slug from its rusty barrel.</p><p>Ursula is a shrewd, cunning, and quiet woman in her mid-twenties, who wears her dirty blonde hair almost scalp short. Her face is a network of pockmarks, burns, and battle scars. She has a thin, athletic build, despite how short she is, and wears a long leather coat over a white linen shirt and leather trousers.</p>"

He spent most of his time in the coaching inn, greeting visitors and holding meetings with local farmers. He is 63 years old with sparse white locks of hair and a tremendous beer gut.

He jumped from the window and slid down the stable roof with only a twisted ankle to show for his troubles. Now he believes that repeating this feat is the only way he can escape the madness around him, but if he is left to jump he tumbles gracelessly and breaks his neck.</p>"
