History

James used to be a circus member, raised in the circus by his parents who were already members of the entertainment group, he quickly developed a taste for parties and entertainment. However, when his parent used to spit fire, he was too scared of it, but wanted to prove himself worthy of something as terrifying, and started to try and tame wild beasts. He started with weasel, boar then wolfs and ended up taming bears. He still owns two bears named Baly and Balo that protect the basement of his tavern.   James stopped his life as a bear tamer when the circus was dissolved. One of the members was caught doing some contraband, and using the circus for this purpose, he avoided the dwarven prison with his parents, but sadly he couldn't continue to practice his craft. He then decided to invest his economy in an inn, hoping to bring joy and smile to people in a new way, sadly he lack any skill in brewing or selling, and started a contraband of his own, working as a member of Carta.   James maintains a strong connection with the Magpies, particularly through an old friend residing in Nicodranas. This friendship has allowed James to visit the city on several occasions, making this Human one of the few people he genuinely considers a true companion. Over Time, James also became something of an uncle figure to Etha.   When Etha visited him in 1136 AD, James welcomed her warmly, offering food and a place to rest. During her stay, he shared critical information about the Cult of Vecna, a group that Carta had been actively opposing since the recent Death of their leader, Korda Glintstone.   Before Etha and her companions departed, they managed to acquire the coveted recipe for the Mighty Brew ale. They secretly handed it over to James, giving him a competitive edge in his brewing endeavors and allowing him to surpass his rivals.
