### Last Appearance

 The Episode Name

**Arval Dagos** is a Suvonnan Dwarven merchant from Goldthrone and owner of the Dagos Trading Company. He traveled with the Stormchasers, though they had not named themselves that yet, for some time after surviving the crash of the Sparrowblade with them. He wields a heavy crossbow he calls Evangeline.

As an NPC he is played by Mark Hulmes.

## **Description**

### **Appearance**

Arval is described as a middle-aged Dwarf with streaks of grey in his beard. In Episode 1, he wore trousers, a fine shirt, a thick leather vest, and a finely embroidered tunic, alongside many rings and necklaces.

### **Personality**

Despite his slightly gruff demeanour, Arval is shown to be a very kind and generous man. He developed a strong bond with the Stormchasers after travelling with them, particularly as they helped heal his broken leg after their airship crashed in the Bitterwood. He seemed especially fond of Valla, adopting a somewhat paternal role for her after her guardians, Yusef and Corin, were killed.

Arval's experience in the Harvest Guard caused him to be very practical and hardened to combat. His work as a merchant means he has a good understanding of the trade routes around Rooksfield leading to his home, Goldthrone. His mercantile experience became particularly useful to the party later on when they reunited in Horizon, as he lent his monetary help and trading experience in the Aerosian fight against Hadar.

## **History**

### Background

Arval worked as a merchant based in Goldthrone and owned the Dagos Trading Company alongside his business partners. In the past, he spent some time working for the Harvest Guard, during which he obtained his crossbow, Evangeline.

### **Chapter One: Stormy Skies**

The party first meet Arval on the Sparrowblade during its flight to Gusthaven, though he was intending to get off on the airship's next stop in Goldthrone. He shared a room with Lucius on the airship when they were attacked in the night by members of the Remnant, where, armed with his crossbow, he joined the party in combat. During their escape from the crashing airship, Arval was separated from the rest of the passengers, landing and getting stuck in a tree an hour away from the rest of the group. He was able to free himself from the tree but broke his leg falling to the forest floor. When the party eventually found him, he was defending himself from a group of Wild Elves who were intending to rob and likely kill him.

After some convincing from the party, including Lucius paying them 50 gold pieces, the Wild Elves left without a fight and the party rescued Arval. The party and Yusef were able to create a splint for Arval's broken leg, but the injury would need either time or powerful magical healing to be fixed. Thanks to Arval's knowledge of the continent, the group plotted a journey to Rosehall, following the Whitebreeze River downstream. During some downtime, Arval told the party that if they can get him home to his estate in Goldthrone, he will handsomely reward them for their help.

### **Chapter Two: Every Rose Has Its Thorns**

During their journey to Rosehall, the party noticed a sunken ruin in a chasm not far from the road, identified by Nova as a pre-Sundering town called Dwalinden. Arval gave some more information on the ruin, mainly that it was a Dwarven trading town rumoured to contain ancient treasures. However, those that descended into the ruin did not tend to return. When the party suggested finding someone in Rosehall to sponsor a mission into Dwalinden, Arval stated that if his priorities hadn't dramatically shifted, he would have been willing to sponsor them.

Upon arriving in Rosehall, the group made their way to the Brazen Hart Inn for a meal and some much-needed rest. The inn's proprietor, Rosalina, directed them to the Temple of Palador, where the priest would be able to heal Arval's broken leg. Arval suggests the party travel to Goldthrone without him as he would slow them down, but Nova insists they help him.

## **Trivia**

* Being from Suvonna, Arval speaks with the equivalent of a thick Texan accent, as it is established that Suvonnans tend to have American or Southern American accents.
* Arval is bisexual.
