Shadow World

Character: Tamul

Player: Will Whatley

Background: Tamul drank like a fish for ten days and woke up in Green Lake. Prior to that, he was a professional killer (mostly on the right side of the law), but that business started to tire him. So he became a clandestine apprentice of a wizard heading a mystical society purporting to explain and control events based on their context (think Feng Shui). Tamul absorbed geomancy privately until his master began to make motions that 1) he was going to run away and 2) indicated he thought of Tamul as nothing but a pawn. Stealing a march, Tamul then absconded with a powerful and forbidden grimoire his master probably shouldn't have had anyway.

Description: Short, lithe, and quick in body. Rather slow looking in the face; dreamy eyes. Typical Shay coloration. Extremely neat grooming, and clothes that are barely sufficient for high society.

Goals: Stop using killing to solve most problems; become the strongest geomancer ever!
