Holbrook Hartjen

Holbrook Hartjen is a "reformed" con artist and talented martial artist. He claims to have grown up in the far eastern lands of Nihona, but it is well known he was raised on the backstreets of Catalan. After a life of narrowly dodging death he was saved from a furious group of bandits he had attempted to con by Lexi Zemke and her party. Though he still maintains connections to criminal elements, he claims he has left his most illegal ways behind him.

Teammates
Lexi Zemke. The Elf Light Cleric who saved him from a group of bloodthirsty bandits. When they defeated the bandits he thought she would also kill him or maybe take him prisoner and give him to the guard, but instead she gave him the opportunity to put his talents to better use.

Iolanthe "Iola" Watrous. Dwarf Batterager Barbarian who almost shoved Holbrook off a cliff when they first met. Though she initially didn't trust him, after he saved her life four times she relented. She now considers him, "part of the family."

Agony Blood. An Orc shadow sorcerer. Holbrook initially was suspicious of him for possesing magic eerily simillar to Holbrook's own, thinking he might be another trainee of Holbrook's villainous old sensei, but later bonded with him over the nature of their magics. They have since experimented with creative ways to combine their powers.
