Bram Oxholt
Half-Orc, Retired arena champion, now a minor investor
Booms when boastful, drops to a whisper when scared, and he's scared often now.
One Last Bout. He wants to arrange a final, honest fight to the death and needs worthy opponents who don't know his history.
The Thrown Match. He wants to confess and make amends to whoever lost money betting on the fight he threw, before it comes out on its own.
Appearance
Enormous, scarred knuckles, dressed in gaudy new finery that doesn't fit his old fighting frame anymore.
Secret
He's afraid of the party specifically because he recognizes one of them from a fight he threw for money years ago.
Quirks
Recites his old fight record like a prayer
Overtips everyone, compulsively
Personality traits
Loud false bravado
Genuine terror of real danger
Ideal
A good death is better than a long, empty life.
Bond
His old training gauntlets, kept polished though he'll never fight again.
Flaw
Has nothing left to lose, which makes him reckless in exactly the wrong moments.
