## Personality

Takao is known to have an awkward, anxious, somewhat strange personality. He often gets annoyed about not receiving chocolates of valentine's day. Despite teasing Nishikata about Takagi, he respects peoples' personal space and never interrupts Nishikata's alone time with Takagi.

~ *Main article: Sanae Tsukimoto* ~

Takao is also revealed to have a secret crush of his own on fellow classmate Sanae Tsukimoto, after Hamaguchi claims everyone knows he likes her. This is further emphasized in chapter 112 when Takao blushes at the sight of Tsukimoto during his trip to the beach, unaware that she had arrived as well. It has not been indicated if Sanae returns his feelings. On the contrary, Sanae once got very angry with him for making fun of girls for writing letters, so much so that she kicked him.

Dire Animals

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter III Section XXIX**

Mercy

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter IV Section XCIX**

*"Mercy is when you don't kill a beaten foe. This may seem like a fool's strategy, but commoners really seem to dig that kind of thing and even celebrate you for it. Obviously the smart thing to do would be to purge all evil with extreme prejudice, but hey, peasants, what can you do?"*
Spell Memorization

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter VI Section IV**

Scorpion

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter III Section LII**

Penelope Green

First met: Episode 6 - To Catch A Wizard

**Penelope** is a scholar who does her best to preserve the history of Trapsborough.  However, the influence of Swiftwinds Trading Company and total ambivalence of Governor Chantwell make this a losing battle.

Nobility

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter VI Section II**

*"Knowing who is who in the court can be very useful. After all once tales of your heroism spread you will undoubtedly attract the attention of many suitors. Accidentally accepting the advances of a lord's wife might provide a layer of complication to your prospects of a long and happy life."*
Necromancy

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter VI Section XXXII**

*"Obviously, bring swing swift and merciless justice to anyone practice necromancy. I mean, even children know how to burn and hang practitioners of death magic. That's the most popular group activity at Sir Gerold's Camp for Young Heroes in Training."*
Crystalline Horror

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter III Section CXXI**

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter III Section II**

As always it is recommended that the honorable warrior attempt to persuade them to give up their lives of skullduggery, but it is more likely they will require a swift application of sharp, pointy justice."*
Phantoms

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter III Section LXXXIII**

*"Everybody dies, not everybody moves on. The people who don't, become phantoms, and since it is totally unnatural for phantoms to exist, they must cheat, and bond with a mortal mind."*

The **phantom** Doretaya, a servant of Desmond Thrand, was encountered in Episode 36 - Bold Strides At Mountain High.
Ahuizotl

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter III Section LXXXIX**

*"Legends tell of a vicious creature that stalks wetlands, devouring smaller creatures with delight. It's tail is said to end in a clawed hand, which it will use to grab it's prey and then lay into it with claws and teeth. I have never seen one myself, but if you do, I advise you to kill it."*

**Ahuizotl** was encountered in Episode 29 - Rescued Rangers.
The Guilty Goblet

**The Guilty Goblet**, once a bustling inn; now an abandoned and forgotten landmark.  No one can say for certain why the inn failed, but there are rumors that the owner ran afoul of some unsavory sorts, and economic sabotage became his downfall.

In Episode 32 - The Devil Is In The Details, this is where The Sixxers took Amy Ulfur so that Gwyn Sixx could talk with the party.
The Animus of Woe

**The Animus of Woe** is the fourth aspect of Woe. In Episode 28 - Animus House, Mortifor reveals that it was Dwindle who suggested to him that the animus of Woe was not something ancient but rather a newer vessel through which Woe might be reborn. This caused Mortifor to begin researching what types of beings might be capable of bearing the mighty spirit of a god. He found that cultists before Woe was broken, had a pact with a line of dragons that inhabited the far southern region of his kingdom.

Far to the south was an ancient beast named Daralaxitran. Mortifor found references to a pact through the dragons line that its scions, centuries and centuries later might be merged with the The Spirit of Woe to bring the mighty spirit back into the world and give it flesh. Dwindle mentioned to Mortifor that far to the south that there once was and still could be a home for an ancient dragon. So the party is tasked with seeking out what might be an unhatched dragon egg.

One interpretation of the prophecy holds that the spirit of Woe inhabits a young dragon and the dragon becomes Woe's avatar on this planet.

Another interpretation is that a sacrifice of the young dragon will be a catalyst that will provide you with the power to destroy The Spirit of Woe, if that is the groups destiny.

Law Enforcement

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter III Section XV**

*"Town guards are typically regular people who didn't quite have what it takes to be a real hero. They might feel threatened by your obvious superiority, in these times it is best to play it straight even though you could undoubtedly destroy them without even trying."*
Goddard Grimwhip

First met: Episode 28 - Animus House

Traveling south of Trapsborough, in search of The Animus of Woe, the party runs across Goddard Grimwhip, a distraught farmer who is in need of assistance in ridding the area around his farm of local goblins who are continuously attacking his chickens.

Mandragora

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter III Section XXXII**

"*The mandragora is a hideous little root monster with a poisonous hide.

Greater Good

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter VII Section VII**

*"It's not okay to bend the laws of justice and good in order to achieve a good end unless it's for the Greater Good. I'm sure that I don't need to explain to you how the Greater Good is much larger and more important than just regular good, so there's more leeway for how you dispense justice."*
Anderley

**Anderley** is a large town to the east of Trapsborough, and is home to The Sixxers crime syndicate, including Trevor Sixx. Anderley is also home to The House of the Cleansing Flame, which is the a church of Arrander and home to the High Aegis Bolaron and Inquisitor Seraphina.

Ancient Artifacts

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter II Section XXIX**

*"No mere trinkets or baubles, some artifacts have such incredible power that the have minds of their own! Artifacts are often extremely important items, and it is likely that any experienced hero will have to acquire one, destroy one, or acquire one to use to destroy another one."*
Diana Restrepo

**Diana Restrepo** is an actress who who plays the character Lady Alex on *Dragons and Things*.

Father Langdon has a holy symbol, which looks like a silver floating disc which hovers above your hand with a chalk line that always points towards him.

* In Episode 3 - Find the Priest. Save the Squire. We learn that Father Landon is a captive of The Sixxers, along with Squire Quigley.
* In Episode 5 - Are We The Good Guys?

He reveals that there is a group operating in secret that he only recently found out about (the worshipers of Lunai), when they began to speak of a prophecy. He tells the group that he has been working with Penelope Green who works at the Trapsborough Historical Archives in town. Father Langdon summons the governor to submit himself to lawful custody, but Governor Davis Chantwell refuses to do so saying that he will not be shown to have backed a criminal when he had already given a speech saying that he had summoned the heroes to town to save him.

Presentation

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter XII Section X**

*"It's easy for common upkeep to get lost in the hectic life of saving the world. When was the last time you had a bath: or your armour was polished to a silvery sheen? Smile in public. Let people see you as approachable. After all, you're a hero, not some smelly, shirtless barbarian."*
Ogres

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter III Section VI**

"*Many adventurers find that their first real challenge is the ogre.  It is incredibly large, strong and dumb, making it an excellent foe for the initiate hero.  This is not to be confused with the giant or troll which would definitely kill you without question.*"

**Ogres** were encountered in Episode 4 - Legends of the Sunken Temple and Episode 29 - Rescued Rangers.
Arthur Sixx

First met: Episode 26 - Touch and Go

The first born son of notorious crime lord, Trevor Sixx, and brother to Gwyn Sixx.  Arthur takes pride in the fact that he rose to prominence in the operation from the bottom up, starting as a low level enforcer and earning his current position in the family business through calculated risk and impressive accomplishments.

Krag's Hammer, Nancy, is equipped with several slots to hold 5 separate runestones, each of which will infuse the hammer with a different magical ability.

**Krag's Hammer's Runestones:**

* Runestone #1 - If declared before his attack roll, Krag can activate this rune and his hammer is imbued with a temporary magical energy that will deal an additional 1d6 sonic damage. If he hits, the creature must succeed a DC14 reflex save or be knocked back 5 feet and prone. This attack is only for the first target if cleaving.
* Runestone #2 - This runestone was found atop an altar in Daralaxitran's lair in the lost city of Zizzuras. The second runestone is the brutality stone. Every time Krag kills a foe, he makes an intimidation check against all surrounding foes who can see that and they have a chance to be shaken, and if he crits they have a chance to be frightened.
Friendly Fire

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter V Section XVII**

*"The fog of war can make keeping things straight in a battle incredibly difficult. Once arrows and spells begin to fly you may find yourself injured not by the enemy, but by your own allies! Just remember that swift and bloody retribution is NOT a heroic virtue, but forgiveness is."*

**Clairet Loralyn Frankie** is an elven bard who is used the fact that elves are not commonly found in the Kingdom to her advantage, gaining fame as a unique performer, singer and dancer.

Compassion

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter VII Section X**

The Naiad

**The Naiad** is the primary drinking establishment for the working class in Trapsborough.  This bar is a cycle of familiar people coming in day after day, drowning their troubles.  Anyone looking to leave with an unbroken nose is best advised to get their drink, sit down and stay quiet.  The preferred watering hole for heavy drinking fishermen who work the Little Fram that feeds the River Fram that provides Trapsborough most of it's water.

The bartender of The Naiad is Carl and the establishment is owned by Nick Farroway.
The Blade of Woe

**The Blade of Woe** is the third aspect of Woe. The party is able to locate the blade in a sewer chamber below the city of Trapsborough. Squire Quigley uses the blade to strike down a guardian sent by Lunai, a Hound Archon, who was guarding it.

With Woe offering a more chaotic path to his worshipers and Lunai being much much more rigid and strict, in direct contrast to Woe, it stands to reason that the blade, which was able to defeat the hound archon may cause a small amount of damage to anyone who wields it who is directly opposed to its will.
Krag

**Krag** is a barbarian from the far reaches of the Windscourge Wastes. He tends to solve many of his problems using a vicious War hammer in battle, which he prizes above all else.

Krag's hammer is fitted with five slots which can be fitted with runestones, that impart magical abilities upon the weapon.

As much as Krag likes to solve problems through a good battle of fierce combat, he does have a tendency to try and solve some situations through the implementation of a "Krag Krap".
Last Rites

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter VI Section LXVII**

*"Every culture has a different way of dealing with the dead, and it is in your best interest to observe those customs even for your most bitter foes.

Sarge

First met: Episode 2 - Monsters, Mayhem and Midnight Meetings

Low Light Vision Glasses

Bruce & Stanley are always seen to be wearing these glasses. These glasses allow the wearer to see twice as far as normal in dim light. Low-light vision is color vision.

Extortion

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter IV Section XVI**

*"Criminals might threaten their victims with harm unless they are paid. This is entirely different from when you casually point out that if the mayor doesn't pay your heroism fee you can't do anything about the giants threatening to destroy your town."*
Chuul

***Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter III Section XXXVIII***

"*Popular rumor is that the chuul were created by a wizard who had such a craving for lobster meat that local fisherman could not keep up with his demand.

Governor Davis Chantwell

First met: Episode 3 - Find The Priest

Governor of the city of Trapsborough. Some people are born leaders, others are born into powerful families so we have no choice but to let them lead.  Governor Chantwell is wonderful at drinking, socializing, collecting and spending taxes, and not a great deal much else.

The governor issues a writ of authority for each member of the party saying that the local law enforcement will aid them in their investigation. Each member gets one with their name on it, however, Krag's is listed as "Mr. Krunk" as he continuously has a problem getting his name correct.

* *You will develop a healthy caution around statues that look like horrible monsters because some of them are, in fact, horrible monsters.

Human Sacrifice

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter IV Section LXXX**

Hope

**Sir Gerold's Guide - Chapter VII Section XVI**

**Jonathan** is a simple town guard in a simple town.  He is still fairly green, and he works really hard to follow the rules and draw no attention to himself.  His focus on policy and procedure can often lead people to think he is being unhelpful, but he's really just trying to make sure he's doing things right.
