the Jealous Performer--Voron Vensatra
Voron Vensatra has been the most popular performer in the market place for some time now. He puts on a act which has some juggling, a bird who can talk and he pulls coins out of people's ears. He's been around for a while, and his act is getting a bit stale, but people know him and like him and feel a bit sorry for him, so they toss him a few coins when they have them to spare. There have been fewer coins coming his way since these new performers showed up in town...they are taking away his business and he's getting worried and maybe a bit desperate. He has never gotten to go on the other side of the golden gate...Mr. Gatekeeper knows that his act would not play well with the rich crowd. They want to be dazzled not forced to feel pity.
Voron is getting desperate, and he uses what little magic he has to set a swarm of giant rats upon the group of actors. He may get angry and attack them himself, trying to destroy their tent and their costumes and suggest that they are using more magic than is good for them and get them into trouble.
He's not a mean spirited person, but this has been his living for the past few years and he's getting older and he wants to make sure that he can keep his living. Even having the group able to perform for the golden families would be better, as at least then he could earn some money in the market.
