Jangen Serpenttoes

Jangen Serpenttoes was born in the city of Stormloft and raised in the streets. His parents left their tribe because they were not well liked. As far as Jangen understood, his father stole his mother from his brother. From a very early age, Jangen was a free spirit. He made his way by stealing loaves of bread and hunks of cheese from market. Determined to become something more, he began stealing things he could fence so that he could save up money and purchase a home or a boat. The law became aware of his thefts, but far too late. He had saved up quite a lot of money and purchased a boat. He began learning the finer graces of life as a riverfolk halfling. He reunited with his lost family, who welcomed him back into the tribe and taught him much about what he had been kept from by his parents.
He banded together with a number of other members of the tribe in their floating town. They had a goal to bring their cartography skills to the guild hall in Stormloft and seek to join their ranks. The guild welcomed the tribemates with open arms. Naturally, halflings who travel about by boat and see the world would be most welcome. Jangen was also a natural musician and he learned several instruments with his tribe. He knew that he wanted to live with his brethren forever and draw the world and sing all the great songs folks had ever made and maybe even write a few himself.
Then, the tribe elder told Jangen that he, like every other halfling, must go on a quest of self-discovery. Others in the tribe asked to go with Jangen, but none were permitted. Jangen has traveled around the Stormloft region for nearly two years now and is fairly well-known in the local bars of all the nearby towns and villages. His maps of the area are highly detailed and he is determined to find every secret the area has to offer. He has found himself once again entering Hilton, a town south of Stormloft under the shadow of Mount Illuminus.
Roleplaying Notes: Jangen is very independent, but he’s also very conversational. He desires to know as much as he can about the people around him, noting any weaknesses he can exploit or strengths he can turn to his advantage. He doesn’t like being manipulated, but he respects anyone cunning enough to trick him into doing something he doesn’t want to do.
