Aesop[edit | edit source]
You will soon depart to that place where those before you have gone, why do you miserably torment yourself, blind to the truth? Yes, I am speaking to you, you miser, who make your future heirs rejoice while depriving the gods of incense and depriving yourself of food. You stingy man, you save every penny for your estate, burdening heaven with promises you do not mean to keep, while you cut back on every possible funeral expense so that not even the goddess of undertakers will profit from your death! - Aesop
Aesop was a Kitsune (magic foxfolk) who originally owned the vessel later renamed to the SS NoSink. He attempted to steal from a Topaz Dragon named Prelnirith and profit off the stolen hoard, but was intercepted by the heroes of the adventure, who killed him and skinned him and turned him into a hat that would be worn by the ship's captain Harold.

Eros[edit | edit source]
Sro[edit | edit source]
Belle[edit | edit source]
Belle was a small girl rescued from Raritan by the Loxo Harold years befor the Greedy Green adventure. An orphan after the loss of her family (and running from her hometown), Belle found a new father figure in the Silver Dragon Sro.
Sro's ward, Belle was a paladin of Bahamut who worked closely alongside Sro, living in his lair with him, and learning all about Bahamut and the old eras of the dragons, She also had a boon from Sro that allowed her to alert him if there were intruders into his lair.
On more than one occasion, Sro would test Belle's might, as well as the might of other potential allies, by polymorphing Belle into a young dragon and having other heroes of the realm demonstrate their dragon slaying potential on her. Belle would learn more about the dragon lifestyle (perhaps in preperation for a Rite of Rebirth) while the heroes would learn what mistakes they made in battling the demo dragon.
Archie Stewart[edit | edit source]
A member of the The Protectors of the People who was impressed by the work of the heroes during Cheshire's Assault on Seglock, formally inviting the heroes from the city to join their secret guild. He was a real grassroots and down-to-earth member of the PotP, and introduced many of the PotP's future leaders into the guild.
Frank[edit | edit source]
Sure, and we will also NOT give out any casks of wine or barrels of ale when they get donated either. We can just hang on to ALL the luxury items we get. That won't make us look like 'dragons.' People have the freedom to choose. What they eat, drink, and smoke, or who they lay with is their own business
Frank ran the inventory (Shipping and Receiving) of the The Protectors of the People for a while shortly after its founding, brought into the fray by Brenna herself. Frank kept a tally of weapons and useful items that its members would use to intimiade the rich, or pillage the powerful. This included both "Dragons" (like Baron Faro) and actual Dragons, provided there was a sizeable bounty on them.
Frank also was an expert of tracking Drakkoth movement patterns across Isonhound, in efforts to collect more Drakkoth Blood, a powerful weapon against Cheshire's Goblins and Cheshire's Orcs. He sent the players on small missions to capture a live Drakkoth which could be drained regularly for weaponization purposes.
Unfortunately it was Frank's "genius" idea to keep and bleed a drakkoth hostage that eventually led to an assualt on the PotP by Drakkoth forces, which also ultimately led to his own death.
O'key[edit | edit source]
O'key (sometimes misspelled Oakey) was a treant guardian of the waterfall grove that sheltered the The Protectors of the People. As the primary guard of the organization, O'key was stationed (rooted) at the top of the waterfall, looking for threats from above and below.
O'key was felled when the Protector of the People were surprise ambushed by Drakkoth warriors who had come to steal back a prisoner that was being held in the PotP hideout.
Sir Beren Cohnal[edit | edit source]
An elf warrior from the Sylvan Order whose ancient burial site was raided by Cheshire forces in an attempt to steal ancient artifacts and weapons from the Sylvan Order crypts.
Beren's spirit gave his blessing for the party to take the remaining equipment from his lieutenants' tombs.
Gideon[edit | edit source]
If Gildroy Lockhard was a brass dragon bard. Gideon arrived late into the adventures, and primarily utilized the heroes of the realm to serve his own goals. As a bit of a playboy he made many babies and made many enemies. Sometimes both at the same time, as is the case with the black dragon Thymor'ala and the eggs that were laid thereafter.
Honesty and sincere to a fault, very encouraging and supportive, positive, uplifting, a bit overbearing. He would sometimes see the heroes as "children", and could be too doting, especially when they would be tasked with his own self-serving goals.
One of his eggs was absorbed by the demigod Silent after it was sacrificed to her by her acolyte D'Kacilius Venrai. As a result, Silent could then take on powerful draconic forms.
Bit of a pacifist, after making enemies with powerful hags, tasked the heroes of the realm to fight off the hags for him, conveniently flying away at the top of each battle saying: "I've got to go help with a different hag".
Unsurprisingly, when Feredemius devoured the realm, he fell victim to The Umbral Flood, turning into a shadow dragon and repeatedly trying to attack Seglock. He required purification, a process which taught the players the power of the Moonflower.
Aldean[edit | edit source]
Aldean El’Naddath of House Kessaria, Emissary of the Wold Order and member of the Sylvan Order.
He is comfortable with traditional decorum, customs and curtesies. Well spoken, but down to earth. He gets along well with all races and appreciates them for their differences. Falgrim playfully called him “Al” and he just rolled his eyes with a slight crack of a smile.
His clothes are a touch fancy but serviceable for traveling and doing a heroes business as needed.
On his main outer robe he has an Iron cross on a red field with the gold crescent moons of Correllon in the center circle of the cross, the symbol of the Sylvan Order.
Fun fact: He’s actually modeled after a PC a good friend of DM Dave who played at a LARP back in New Jersey. Great guy, great character.
Baron Faro[edit | edit source]
Baron Virion Faro [m/Eladrin Elf] - Head of the Faro family of Seglock. The only remaining original inhabitants of this once heavily forested area. Owns a large share of the Sheridan Lumber company. Rich, flamboyant, and self-absorbed Baron Faro earned his wealth and clout by establishing a relationship with the founders of Seglock and involving himself in all of their major ventures.
He holds no political position or power, he was given his title of "Baron" early in the Seglock's establishing days to make him feel important and convince him to look the other way as the city began to take shape around his elven estate.
After Cheshire's Assault on Seglock, Baron Faro pulled any of his funding and patronage from Seglock University, as a result of Cheshire's connections with the school. To make matters worse, Faro believed that Cheshire (and Tiamat) attacked Seglock specficially because so many heroes of the realm had made it their home. He motioned to have the heroes, such as the Band of the Iron Hawk, evicted.
This put him directly into the crosshairs of The Protectors of the People, a vigilante group of people who set their sites on powerful individuals and the power they abused. This came to a head when the Protectors publically accused the Baron of his evilness during a city hall meeting. After the confrontation, one Harold took it upon himself to begin spreading rumors that the Baron was into unorthodox private activities in his house, and that Harold should instead be elected the new Baron. Despite it not being an elected position...?

Dr. Solfen[edit | edit source]
A dragonborn scientist with the Church of Innovation, operating the lab in Deeplake. After it was revealed that he was working for The Green Stag (see below) on a mission of territorial control against other dragons, the team robbed the laboratory of its equipment.
A scientist who offered his services to P'kinestra in return for his life. In return, P'kinestra pushes him and the Church of Innovation to target blue dragons as much as possible, as the ruins at Ethinok are TOO close to Deeplake, and P'kinestra is threatened by the blue dragons who had moved in there.
Slofen is not aware of P'kinestra's larger activities, including that P'kinestra is actually behind most disappearances.
Professor Nguyen[edit | edit source]
A Bioinformatics professor at Seglock University who had theorized and experimented with the relationship between Drakkoth and Cheshire's Goblins, teaching the players that the blood of the former could be used as a one-hit killer of the latter. Often seen traveling with his companion Autom.
Unfortunately, after Cheshire's Assault on Seglock, it was decided by Baron Faro that he would pull his patronage and funding to the university, the funding that previously funded Nguyen's experiments.
Professor Hargraves[edit | edit source]
Professor Theron Hargraves was a former assistant to Horatio Cheshire when they were at Seglock University together, Hargraves later became esteemed faculty of the school, but got into hot water when Horatio seemingly was able to infiltrate the school despite its heightened defenses in the wake of the draconic war. He was captured and interrogated by the heroes of the Greedy Green after the events of Cheshire's Assault on Seglock, who suspected him of cohorting with Cheshire, but was later released by the heroes into state custody by Seglock.
He was later visited in prison (guarded by Lt. Torso) by the heroes, where they learned the true depth of his connections with Horatio.

Before the attack, Lorita considered herself a Protector of Luanda, as the city was dangerously positioned near an abandoned magical obelisk which functioned as an imprisonment chamber for an even worse evil than Flame: Lord Belovaar.
Captain Visio[edit | edit source]
Visio was the captain of the guard of Seglock, he mostly handled issues including resolving bounties on players heads, or rounding up and getting refugees home after the heroes did their part to secure safe passage or heal the wounded.
In the aftermath of Cheshire's Assault on Seglock, Visio helps the heroes track down Professor Hargraves to investigate the underlying causes of the attack. Visio himself also undersaw burial operations of the soldiers and civilians lost in the attack.

Gertrude[edit | edit source]

Tragdor[edit | edit source]
"I just teleport out of these types of situations. Fighting is a young folks game."
Am unusually old wizard ("I've been around far longer than I should have") and retired illusionist who impersonated a Dragon with illusion magic in order to gain the service of a whole clan of kobolds. He had a kobold he trusted named Do'ki who would sneak into Briar Glen and steal him the necessities like food and blankets. However, the kobolds only listened to the old wizard because he was using illusions. When the heroes arrived they impersonated "the ambassadors of Tiamat" which put the wizard in a scary position. He was relived to find out they weren't really ambassadors of Taimat, but he was hoping they wouldn't ruin his scam. Instead, the heroes killed the kobolds and left Tragdor to keep up his scam without the kobold servants, deeming him as having not broken any laws himself, now that the kobolds paid the price.
After his scam was ruined, he began to pay for his goods directly from Briar Glen, and also paid a small fee to pay back the store owner Gertrude.
Later on, he would hire the Greedy adventurers after his voice was stolen by an old ally of his, the magician and secret dragon Venaleth ("Mr. V") as a punishment for saying his real name (and not "Mr. V") to someone on the surface, risking revealing his appearance in the region.

Keep tabs on the players if they get word that Miles is back in town. Rumored to have connections to The Green Stag the the city's frequent disappearances. It was noted that shortly after The Green Stag was confirmed slain, Arbane Eilden went on the run. Some point to the two of them being the very same creature, while others believe that Arbane had made a powerful enemy in the dragon, and his failure to protect the Stag lead to him running for his life from any form of ghostly revenge.
The Crying Scryer[edit | edit source]
What we’ve been dealing with, everything we’ve accomplished, is all leading to something. The dragons, their kinfolk, were told to be pawns, minions to something so much more powerful. The enemies of Eros, according to this Scryer. He said that very soon, whoever or whatever is behind everything will be coming, and with him a terrible storm. Eros is said to be not long behind him, but we are to hold fast until the moon dragon can arrive.
The Crying Scryer was a Lunaran who lived at Rana Ndore, a holy mountain top near Hallasen. He was the guard and purveyor of the Crystal Moonwell, and upon visitation from the heroes of the realm, was willing to give them a scrying of the future. However, what he saw about The One That Waits revealed that the Moonwell was in danger. He asked the team to take the Moonwell with them from the site, where they would soon after set it up to protect the city of Seglock. Later on, the Crying Scyer passed a prophecy on to The Protectors of the People:
Cave un Eros, et erum te cavebit
This prophecy would lead heroes to investigate Cavebite Stream and eventually discover the lair of the Sapphire Dragon known as Bleucorundum

Pinky the Dragon Slayer[edit | edit source]
The man, the myth, the legend.
Pinkerton "Pinky" Dubois was born the last son of a minor noble family. Due to inheritance customs, his father made it very clear from an early age that Pinkerton would have to "make his own way in life". He was given the choice between studying at a temple or joining the military. Pinkerton decided on the military, specifically the navy - as it allowed him to get as far from his father as possible.
In the navy of his home kingdom, Pinkerton became a minor gunnery officer. He was skilled in his duties, but was often a disciplinary issue when not at his post. Eventually his superiors had enough with his antics and he was "accidentally" left ashore in a foreign port. However, skilled beings with knowledge of the sea are never long for work and Pinkerton quickly found another ship. His new ship specialized in moving cargo that would not be welcomed in many ports if its contents were publicly known. Now going by the name of Pinky, he did very well for himself on this ship and beat the odds for the majority called to such a life by retiring.
Pinky's life in his new station of Fasiltum was pleasant and uneventful. He would often go fishing, drink himself into a nap by noon and wake up in time to make happy hour in the town's tavern. Pinky knew this relaxed routine would be coming to an end when he spotted the survivors and adventurers from Jakalla. From his time aboard ship, he immediately recognized the make of the cannons. The gun he volunteered for was a model known to have a faulty site. However, despite trying to tell both the pale woman in blue and the elven bowwoman, both were too concerned to really hear him. Therefore, he was unsurprised when every shot his fun made missed.
Yet, at the climax of the battle, with the elf woman passed out and the dragon bearing down on him, Pinky took charge of his gun, compensated for the error in the site, and sent the ball down the throat of the dragon. From that moment forward, he became known as "Pinky the Dragon Slayer". However, this recognition was most annoying as he was old and just wanted to go back to drinking on the beach. As his surliness finally got people to leave him alone he was thankful of two things: the quite his "fishing trips" brought, and that he had worn brown pants the night of the dragon attack.
Mayor Ó Donnchú[edit | edit source]
The Mayor of Synàra, O Donnchu was the target of an attempted Mayor-napping by the silver dragon Sro, who was then fooled into taking another creature in the city center after being convinced that the lowly assistant was in fact the mayor of the city.

The amiable barkeep of the Locke & Key Tavern in the city of Seglock. Always willing to fill your glass (and your ear), this Satyr swears like a sailor but seems to have a heart of gold, or at least copper under his crass exterior. This is evidenced by his love and concern for the safety of his daughter, Wisty. He always keeps an ear to the ground and seems to "know a guy" for just about any situation. This could imply connections to Isonhound's Rimewald cabal, or another undercity crime syndicate with ties to the northern regions.
Magus Yinceran[edit | edit source]
A geodaury magus from Katharda Academy who also worked at Seglock University. As someone not loyal to the uni but who knew the ins and outs, Yinceran shared all she knew about the university with the heroes, which later helped them discern Horatio's motives to attacking, and ultimately provided a useful ally.
Tarian[edit | edit source]
Tarian was a young boy who lived in Tsojcanth who had "accidentally" stolen the Corundum Egg from Bleucorundum when they took it from the abandoned lab of the town's ex-wizard Revan.

She travelled to Chillcrest Forest in Northern Sylvanry as part of a relief effort to aid settlers that had fallen victim to Lindwurm attacks. Her New Dryad body was slain by the Lindwurms; but after dying her lifeforce took root, transforming into a purple sapling which was recovered by the party sent to bring her home.
The sapling was taken by a number of parties including Dancer of the Boreal Valley, but eventually handed off to fellow Dryad Grandmush. It is unclear if this sapling will eventually grow into a clone of Wisty, or into a new creature descended from Wisty.
Madame Webe[edit | edit source]

Raritan[edit | edit source]
A small elf girl from a tribe of map makers, Raritan had a very calm life while enjoying her guitar. Harold stopped by her tribe on a trading mission and was amazed on the quality of her maps. The likeness of her name to a town of his past seemed a clear sign to him and wouldn't take no for an answer. He insisted she join him as his navigator. She now accompanies Harold on the SS NoSink for adventures and riches while making additional maps for new travelers. Raritan was taken hostage by The Green Stag but ultimately saved by the team. She is an NPC and a consistent part of Harold's crew for as long as she still survives.
