Kerstan Teuling
"Well he presents himself as a steadfast wall against greed, in both bureaucracy and in business. A more jaded person may refer to him as the 'crimson collector', as so many of my contemporaries may do, but not I! After all, it cannot be denied he does his job with a startling efficiency. Sometimes I wish he worked for me, if he wasn't so deep in the council's pocket." - Caelynn Navarra
Tiefling adjoint to the Lord Collector.
Recently raised to the position of Caldwell’s second-in-command, Kerstan pursues his duties with the utmost diligence. His appearance in such an important role from a common background serves as a sort of inspiration. Working closely within the bank for most of his life, he has risen closer and closer to power through their many connections. With no hope of ever rising to prominence alone, he chose to become one of the many pieces at play within Neverwinter’s game of politics. No matter the cost to himself, he will achieve something with his life.
Charged with the implementation of the city’s tax collection, his days are spent liaising with the prominent individuals of New Neverwinter, and pursuing his superior’s wishes. Whether this concerns the burgeoning elite or the established nobility, it is meticulously conducted (too much so in many of their opinions). His steps seem to run by the clocks themselves, from dawn till dusk, day in, day out, from factory floors, to archives, to meetings, from the inner walls to the outer reaches. His work begins and ends each day with a prayer, followed by a close surveyance of and a report concerning the Enlightenment Assembly’s dealings.
Moreso than his superior, he is the face of the Exchange to many Neveran citizens. While business comes to him naturally, the same can’t be said to friendliness, despite his best efforts. His demonic appearance and the fiery temper that is said to be buried underneath don’t serve to improve his reputation, standing out quite literally as one of the city’s few Tieflings.
Teuling is a strange one. You can’t argue with his efficiency, or his results, but the brightest flames burn fastest and the nobles are never afraid to snuff one out early. I suppose he has no choice, now that he’s chosen this path.
