Contacts & Relations

Brooks: An ex-associate of Vallen. A halfling with a keen mind for gambling, Brooks used to hustle poor unfortunate souls out of all their cash in one of the Coppers’ gambling holes, but had a breakdown after the untimely death of his wife, Rosemary. He quit gambling altogether and found religion, becoming a priest of Anka in a nearby village on the outskirts of Lastport. Vallen went to him for help after being left for dead, and Brooks generously nursed him back to health and kept him hidden from any Coppers who might pass that way.

Family Ties

Caelynn: Vallen’s deceased mother. A lovely, caring woman who lived a hard life under the oppressive nature of Drow society, as well as on the surface where she inevitably worked herself to death to support her two children. She loved her children more than anything in the world, and often referred to Vallen and Kareena as “her two little gumdrops”.
 
Kareena: Vallen’s elder (by 5 years) sister. A few inches shorter than Vallen, but with very similar features: red eyes, white hair, charcoal skin. Very skilled at staying hidden and moving quietly, Kareena is a highly accomplished thief well known in the criminal underworld. She and Vallen developed their own code early on in their careers in order to communicate with each other in secret, a code known only by them. She went missing 2 years ago, but Vallen believes deeply in his heart that she’s alive, and reuniting with her is his top priority going forward.
 
Leshka: Vallen’s estranged father. Leshka was a high-ranking official amongst the drow, and as such held high expectations for his children, intent on having them follow in his footsteps. While not necessarily abusive he was very strict in their upbringing and education, and this strict treatment and gradual indoctrination into the drow way of life was what eventually led to Caelynn taking their children and escaping to the surface. Vallen has no information regarding his father and can barely remember what he looks like.

Religious Views

Not a follower of any religion, but has a soft spot for worshipers of Anka in respect of his friend, Brooks.

Speech

Low pitch, somewhat raspy, relatively common accent.
