Klawuhn

Klawuhn never knew his parents, though he is aware of a rumor that they were murdered when he was an infant. A prostitute took him in after finding me stranded all alone and cold outside of my old house. She brought me back with her to the house of ill repute located just outside the walls in the Kleinsumpf suburb of Wunschau. Named for the town of origin of its madam, Klawuhn was raised collectively by all who worked in the house, and became close to them, though he rarely left the house uncovered. As he grew up on the social margins, he was little noticed by the authorities, who associated his strange appearance with the prostitutes' life, though he did become somewhat of a curiosity for those who frequented the establishment. As he became older, he became a catamite, came to take care of the house's protection, and gradually, became involved with fencing goods and other gang activities that ran out of the house. He also gained a fair amount of information on the various clients of the establishment, including members of the town Rat and important religious leaders.   Growing up, Klawuhn knew that he was different, but did not know what exactly he was, nor knew about elves as a people. Though he mostly came out at night, he did notice several people who shared some of his features. Especially prominent among these were Edda "Eddi" the Fisher and Franz der Schwarzhoffen - a member of the Wunschau City Watch. In the last few months, he also noticed a newcomer - Cilly 'Wechselbalg' - a plague doctor who arrived to help the city fight off a recent outbreak of the dread disease. As he had long sought to learn the truth about his past and lineage, Klawuhn looked for an opportune time to speak to one of them. He found his moment during a particularly tense moment when the future of the city was being decided. He saw those three, along with Dietmar of Hauswald and Reinhard der Schreiber conferring together on the Mondhausplatz, and approached them. Though they were initially suspicious, they decided to use Klawuhn in a daring ploy to keep Wolff the Miller in power as the city's Vogt. In the process, Klawuhn learned that the three half-elves had been contacted by their presumed mother, Edelweiss, and summoned to a meeting by a portal to the realm of Albenheim. For Klawuhn, this represented an opportunity to learn about his own past.   Physically, Klawuhn has an athletic build. He has dark dusky skin, a hardened face with a typically smug look upon it, and piercing blue eyes. He wears leather armor with extra pockets to store small valuables.
