Beans

## Introductions

Erm, hello? My name's Beans, nice to meet you. What can I tell you, though? I'm a tortoiseshell tabaxi, quite small, and I like wearing ponchos!

## Beans' Life

Well, I was raised in the valley with my clan, and I loved being outside in nature! I used to spend hours just sat outside my ponchammock listening to the birds and the rivers and the trees, and didn't really spend much time with the rest of the clan. So anyway, that's how I became a monk; mostly by accident.

One day, the village elder came to me and said they had a very important job for me. They led me over to the edge of the valley where a very fancy carriage was waiting to take me to a new land! The man inside was very nice, giving me lots of nice fish and telling me that I would be visiting all sorts of new places!

Believe it or not, the first place they took me was to a very snowy mountain; I didn't like the snow at all, much too cold! But the snow has memory, see, it knows you've been there, it's very clever! Anyway, this mountain had a secret door very high up that the carriage could just about get through, and it was very nice inside; they had all sorts of rooms I could play in, lots of ropes for me to climb and plenty of fireplaces to sleep in front of!

They told me that I'd be visiting these things called cities, and lots of them, so I'd need to be able to handle myself because there were all sorts of ruffians about. I got trained to climb ropes better, be all sneaky, even how to pick locks in case I got trapped somewhere, very useful! So that's the story of how I became a rogue too, so I guess now I'm a monk-rogue? That's a bit too much of a mouthful, so I'll just call myself a Mogue, or maybe Mog for short? Beans the Mog, does that work? Maybe not...

So after they're happy that I'm safe from all the bad people they take me to a few big places and ask me to do some little jobs for them; it's nice to do things for people, and these people had already been so nice to me so I helped them out. Most of it was just some tidying up and moving things, so it wasn't too tiring. They always made sure I got a nice fish at the end, though! It was fun going from place to place like a bwgan, and I started to actually be proud of my work. I heard some people talk about me the other day and it was really nice, they seemed so impressed!

The other day I was taken to a new place, Neekamoy? That's how it's said, anyway. They gave me a nice fancy poncho and told me wait around for more instructions, but they never came, and I'm starting to worry they got hurt in this strange place. I did meet some very nice people, though! There was a very nice fox-man, Meerkat, who had a puppet called Tuna (not very nice to eat, though), a dragon person called Nesgrax and a lizard lady named Olive. I've seen so many different types of people here, it's kinda scary!

Meerkat wanted me to perform in a show of some sort at the museum, but there were so many people there I couldn't do it; I ran off and hid somewhere until it was all over. I did see some, but then everything went dark and confusing. I saw some bee people run past me and they gave me a dirty look, so I smiled and waved but that just seemed to make them angrier. Later, I saw my new friends again as they ran out of the museum carrying something, and Olive shouted something about a cat as they headed in to the darkness, but I wasn't quite sure what.

Later on my friend finally arrived with a sad look on his face. He said that something had gone wrong, and that we'd have to paws the city trips fur now. He said he'd be in touch, but for now I should find something else to do. He gave me a bit of shiny round pieces and showed me to his friend's house, where I could stay as long as I wanted. This person was very nice too, but had a very oddly shaped head.

In the days afterwards I was looking for something to do, and I just happened to run into Meerkat again! He mentioned that he worked for a guild in town, and that I should join too so we could hang out! I thought that would be a really fun idea, so he drew me a map and I went to visit the building. It was very big and impressive, nothing like I was told it was going to be! I thought that only the bad people were over in this part of town, but Meerkat was very nice so maybe they just made a mistake and got lost? I do that sometimes too.

I met a very nice person who let me join, and even said I could have an "unpaid in term ship", whatever that means; hopefully nothing to do with water, but at least I don't have to pay for it! I'm just looking forward to making some new friends and visiting new places while I'm here!
