Talnar
NightThunder, Shar Sei'cairDescription:
A lean man, he is not very tall, a good head below six feet. He has short
black hair and burnished grey eyes set on a narrow face. He looks fairly young, probably not past his twenty-fifth summer. He wears a tattered green wool cloak, torn and ripped in many places that barely conceals an old chainmail shirt that is beginning to show signs of rust. He wears faded green cotton pants that are tucked into the tops of the worn leather boots that cover his feet. On his hand is a tarnished signet ring, its sigil faded and unrecognizable. Covering his head is a rabbit fur cap, around his waist is a braided leather belt. The only thing he wears that does not seem to be worn and faded or in similar condition are the long-bladed throwing knife resting in a leather sheath and a finely crafted broadsword in a worn scabbard hanging at his hip.

A mountainous forest, the trees and underbrush blanketed in the darkness of a stormy night. Wind rustles among the leaves and bushes and thunder clashes through the air as a flash of lightning reflects off the eyes of a lean gray wolf, partially obscured by the surrounding forest as he stares out, eyes fixed on some unseen target.

Background:
Talnar is a young Cairheinen servant to a minor noble when the troubles over the succession to the sun throne. Supported his lord's claim (A minor claim with not much chance however) He only played a small role in the battles, however he did hold his sword among with the rest. They became little more than brigands someway to the east of Cairhien after the lord they supported was killed in a raid on another house. Talnar was used mostly as a scout and for "Acquiring" food and other supplies. The band he stayed among (mostly retainers, servants, and woodsmen and a few men at arms from the Lords household) hid mostly in the Kinslayer's dagger mountains. The group he stayed with was captured in a raid, and hung as traitors by another Cairhienien lord. Talnar and several others were able to avoid capture, but decided it best to leave Cairhein or have slightly streched necks. After which Talnar headed west towards Andor, where he supposidedly had family. The family there, turning out to have dissapeared and not seen for quite some time, he headed on towards Caemlyn in search of work
