Borin Hask
Half-orc, Former mercenary captain, now day laborer
Booming when sober, mumbling and sentimental when drunk, which is most of the time now.
The Locket's Owner. He wants the party to help him follow the one remaining lead on his daughter's location — a slaver's brand matching an outfit still active in the region.
The Company's Ledger. He wants someone to find his old company's payment ledger to prove the contract that doomed his men was legitimate, clearing his name among their families.
Appearance
Towering frame gone to ruin, scars crisscrossing his forearms, a company insignia tattoo faded to near-nothing. Smells perpetually of cheap ale.
Secret
He is the last surviving member of his mercenary company, all others having died on the contract where his daughter was taken — and he's never told anyone he was the one who chose to take that contract against his men's advice.
Quirks
Toasts absent comrades before every drink
Carries a broken locket he can't bring himself to fix or discard
Personality traits
Nostalgic to the point of self-destruction
Fiercely protective when it matters
Ideal
Family — blood or company — is worth more than the coin he's spent his life chasing.
Bond
His daughter, taken by slavers during his company's final, disastrous contract eight years ago.
Flaw
Drinks to numb the search, which slows the search, which gives him more reason to drink.
