Lothar
Lothar it a tiefling rogue, former circus performer and brother of Lori. He is a player character played by sam in the The Ironlock claimant, two-shot
Story
The twins grew up in a small village, hearing the tales of mythical heroes and legends. So when they're still pretty young (I think like 13/14) they leave home to go on their own adventure, find treasure and become rich and famous. They get lost in the first week, their coin runs out not much later. Out of desparation they go seek help in the first town they can find.
It just so happens that there's a circus in town, that welcomes them with food and a warm tent to sleep at night and sure they can help a bit settimg up for the show and they might as well join them in the next town, it's not like they have plans. Before they know it they're stuck. They quickly become the nr.1 act, but they don't get paid, the circus doesn't believe in paying individuals, but the people are so nice and they can be realy usefull here, the circus is like a f a m i l y. (The circus may be a cult)
Eventualy they leave the circus, they try to come by picking pockets and performing their acts at street corners. However this can't last long, they stand out to much and people start to notice the pickpocketing. They have to hide from the guards for a while. This is when they meet Hilda, who lets them lay low with her for a while. In true teenage fashion this makes her the coolest person to ever exist to them and they have now convinced themselves they owe her their lifes.
Eventually the twins get to help out Hilda, which you can read about in The Ironlock claimant.
Character
The twins dynamic can be summed up as; Lothar is the streetsmarts keeping them alive, Lori is the charm keeping them employed. He is still outgoing and loves to perform. But he doesn't mind stepping down and letting his sister shine in the spotlight either, especially if it meens people are to distracted to notice him sneeking around. He likes to think of himself as witty and cunning, though a lot of that is teenage hubris.
