Kilar Vasarni

In the other part of the cell, you see another hunched over figure. Even turned away from you, you can see a red beard poking out from his chin and a head of shaggy red hair. His clothing is in tatters, showing various small cuts and scrapes. Deep purple bruises peek out from underneath what remains of his sleeves and across his back from some recent punishment.
As Talas Pódraga speaks up, he turns to look at you, and you catch a weak smile play across his lips.

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

His time in prison has made him thin and gaunt, as well as made his hands broken and his body more hunched. He has well-tanned skin from his travels.

Body Features

He was severely abused in prison, and there are dark bruises all across his back and forearms.

Facial Features

He sports an unkempt red beard and a pencil moustache.

Apparel & Accessories

Only the shredded remains of his soiled travel clothes still cling to his back.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Kilar spent much of his early life in the theatres of Essel, learning the tools and trade of an actor. His father wanted him to grow up in that trade, but Kilar didn’t take to it as much as his father had hoped. By the age of 18, Kilar had returned from mandatory military service but was not interested in acting. He instead became the impresario of a troupe of musicians and dancers that travelled throughout the realm and beyond, spreading cheer and making a handsome sum of money. On his inaugural trip north to the capital, him and many of his troupe were captured and tortured by bandits; only him and Talas Pódraga survived those weeks and lived long enough to be rescued. Whether he wants to try and rebuild his troupe or do another career is unknown.

Education

In his youth, he learned the actor’s trade at the Highwall Theatre in Essenburg.

He has also picked up things from his time as an impresario.

Employment

He has remained self-employed throughout his life, with the exception of his training at the Highwall Theatre.

Mental Trauma

His time among the Deranti Bandits created big cracks in his mental health. He regularly has nightmares about the abuse he suffered there.

Intellectual Characteristics

Optimism was one of his major character traits before his imprisonment, although this has been tempered with a pragmatism that is unsettling to people who knew him before.

Morality & Philosophy

Before his imprisonment, he was well-known for his cheerful demeanour but he often manifested an egotistical side. He was not above doing something illegal, as evidenced by his protection of the thief Daz Dromégar. Afterwards, he became much humbler and significantly more skittish.

Taboos

He is now a little afraid of dark forests and/or travelling at night for obvious reasons.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Now that he is free from his imprisonment, Kilar is interested in either restarting the troupe with new members or finding a stable location somewhere so that he does not have to travel the dangerous roads of Endaman again.

Savvies & Ineptitudes

Before his imprisonment, he was a well-known musician, although he can no longer play his viol.

He is still very knowledgeable about to work a crowd and grab people’s attention.

He often gets lost, meaning he relies on others to map his course when he travels.

Likes & Dislikes

He loves performing and is very keen on starting the troupe again

He likes little gifts from friends, although he may be too proud sometimes to accept them.

He dislikes robbery, although he is willing to accept a cut of such thievery if the past is any guide.

Virtues & Personality perks

a boundless and confident personality that has only been humbled, not killed outright.

a cheeky smile that gets him anything that he wants.

Vices & Personality flaws

an ego that is now kept in better check

an unhealthy fear of the dark that hinders him from daring acts or bravery of any kind in those kinds of places.

Hygiene

As an impresario, Kilar knows that he must be in good condition and of a high standard of hygiene, so he bathes regularly.

Social

Contacts & Relations

Daz Drómegar of the Drakeslayers used to be a member of his troupe.

He still travels with Talas Pódraga, one of the dancers of his old troupe.

Social Aptitude

He used to be very confident and strong in social interactions but his time in prison has robbed him of much of his inner strength. All the same, he is very convincing and enjoys being the centre of attention.

Speech

The proud and booming voice of this impresario has now become a sad squeak from the amount of screaming and torture that he endured.

Wealth & Financial state

Having escaped The Deranti Bandits only by the seat of his pants, he has very little coin. He was gifted a substantial sum by Daz and still does not know what to do with it.
