Lucian

Lucian was a half-elven rogue who worked doing random jobs for the mysterious Sister Guerell prior to his meeting of the Imbeciles. After Guerell's disappearance, Lucian elected to remain with the Imbeciles.

**Early Life**

Lucian grew up in the town of Hartswood with his parents and younger sister. His family was middle-class, although his sister would go on to marry a rich man eventually. When Lucian fell in love with a poor girl named Tara, his family disapproved and eventually Lucian cut ties with them. At some point after this Tara became extremely sick, leading to Lucian's decision to turn to a life of crime. Although he had attempted to gain help from his own family, his request for aid was denied. A few months later, Tara passed away.

Alone and without a purpose, Lucian was approached by the individual known as Sister Guerell, who offered him work doing random jobs for her. Although the purposes of these jobs was often unclear, Lucian took the deal anyway as it provided much-needed money. After a month of this, Lucian chose to rob his family of all their possessions and begin a new life in Phandalin. Despite this, Guerell once again found him and he resumed his work for her.

**With the Imbeciles**

Lucian first met the Imbeciles when Sister Guerell hired them to assist in the delivery of a comb to Gotha the Banshee in exchange for information on Bojantyl's Spellbook. After the conclusion of this mission, Sister Guerell suddenly departed, leaving Lucian alone once more. No better plan presenting itself, Lucian decided to continue travelling with the Imbeciles on their quest to save Gundren Rockseeker and defeat the Black Spider. Lucian would go on to become an invaluable member of the group, despite being rather reserved.

When Alosa decided to leave the Imbeciles Lucian was the only one she told. Lucian then kept this information secret for quit some time, prompting some frustration from the other Imbeciles. Nonetheless, any animosity was short-lived. During their final fight with the Black Spider, Lucian finally overcame his fear of spiders and did a great deal to help defeat both the Black Spider and his henchmen.

**Later Life**

After the conclusion of their adventures and their effective disbanding, Lucian chose to remain in Phandalin with Quentin and Thresh. Although unconfirmed, it is probable that he helped to stop some kind of break in at their mansion following this, and that he was also part of the group which reformed to help save D'Jango.
