Enry Burblecutt
I think it's time, don't you? Halflings were the last race to chose civilization over barbarism. Halflings were never built a city all our own. No halfling names echo through the annals of history. I think it's time though. I think it's time for us to look to a future of our making. One strictly for us, made by us and that belongs only to us. New Sanctuary is the stepping stone to that destiny we so deserve. If that city succeeds it opens the west to us. There are vast swathes of unclaimed territory just waiting for us to tame it! Let's build this settlement, cultivate a good neighbor and then reach out for the piece of Tairos that belongs to us! I think it's time!
Enry has been Alderman in the heavily Halfling district of Anchor Mill for almost two decades now. He's immensely popular among the halfling people as well as the other races that live there. His career as Alderman in Ghal Pelor is one of gregariousness, generosity and distinction. By all accounts Burblecutt is popular man and hero to many.
Though he's always been troubled by the dismissive, second-hand, legacy that the halfling people have been saddled with. They have always been great supporters, allies and reliable friends to the other people of Tairos but nothing has truly belonged to them alone. Burblecutt has made a considerable part of his political career about bringing halflings into the spotlight but this has rarely been successful. They have no heritage, no culture and no history of their own to draw inspiration from. He hopes to change that with the New Sanctuary expedition. He hopes to see that settlement built and from there to move northward and build the first halfling capital.
