Slate

Sir Stephen Derby (a.k.a. Slate)

Slate is large, well armed, armored, and equipped. That's about all you know. He does not say much. He is an extremely capable fighter, and surprisingly, very knowledgeable about trade, organizing caravans, and the details of getting shipments bought and sold.

He is currently in Pokidum, obstensibly to assist his family with their increased trading enterprises.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Slate was always a big child, but he got his height early, and his family encouraged him to become a guard for their trading trips. As a member of the family, he was more "invested" than a typical "hired" man. After a few years, Slate decided to join a mercenary company working in the Reconquest of Okendentia. However, that situation did not work out the way he expected, and after a couple of years, he left that company and returned to Tolpereth.

He was awarded membership in the Order of the Knight Companions in 1251 for services rendered to the High King of Tolpereth.

Education

Slate is surprisingly well-educated- he is capable of reading and writing in both Romen and Fordanish Dunedoran, and he is also intimately familiar with double entry bookkeeping.

Wealth & Financial state

While Slate is by no means a noble and is accustomed to a hard day's work, he did grow up without want. His clothes and kit are not finery, but they are also not cheap- they are well made of good materials.
