Vernon the Dustridden

Driver for Favon Ducharte. Currently works for the Department of Trade and Transit but spent his youth as an adventurer himself until a tragic accident left him the lone survivor of his party. Unable to cope with the loss he traveled through the wastes south of the Verrat Mountains for a year (908RR). During which time he became estranged to those who once knew him. Eventually he took his current job and continues to live an ordinary life.
Haunted by the images of his friends and the love of his life being torn apart in front of him, he has turned to drink to cope.  He wishes for death for before his love died he had made a wish to a genie "I wish that my life can go on as long as hers."  thus trapping him in this body for the lifetime of an elf.  He didn't just survive the encounter that took the lives of his party, he survived being eaten alive.
