NPCs (Darenfell Supplement)
From D&D Wiki
Diversity[edit]
The people of Darenfell are quite diverse, but they all have one thing in common. Whether they are from Athelar, Vulkan in Soaring Rock, or the Groundling Sanctuary in the Deadlands, they have seen the dangers of this world-- or at least part of them. The peoples of this world know just how dangerous it is, and as such, are not the most trusting people. They will not trust easily, and when they do, perhaps you should be worried.
... Or maybe not. Perhaps they are simply not scared of you.
Athelaran peoples[edit]
The people of Athelar are dangerous, jaded people. All of Western Athelar has learned at least the basics of combat, and if it comes down to it, they will fight to the last man, woman, and child.
Artur Selmy[edit]
Artur Selmy is lord of the West, and he guards the Martelen Forest, allowing no one in-- but more importantly, allowing nothing out. The Martelen, nicknamed the Howling Wood, is nicknamed that for a reason. When someone ventures in, they do not come out, and all that is heard is inhuman shrieks of pain.
Selmy was appointed by the previous Lord of Winter's Fist, Gregor Selon, who is now old and senile.
Age: 53
Occupation(s): Warden of the Howling Woodway
Jon Selon[edit]
Jon Selon is the current lord commander of Winters Fist and the Wolves of the West. He is also not technically a Selon, but a Barron, a small family of farmers and merchants. But after a certain incident in his youth, which left most of his village, and all of his family dead, he was adopted by Gregor Selon, who, after an encounter with a creature of darkness, was left mad.
Age: 42
Occupation(s): High Lord; Lord Commander of the Wolves
Ben Selon[edit]
The Mad Dog of Winters Fist is the son of Jon Selon and is one of his own elite rangers. He is called the Mad Dog because the way he battles resembles that of a wild animal, and he has a short, hot temperament.
Age: 20
Occupation(s): First Ranger; Lord in Training
Gwenuvere Selon[edit]
Once Gwenuvere Mandrakha, the marriage of her and Jon was arranged from a young age. The two are nearly the same age, with only a year's difference between them. After the wedding in Winters Fist, her father, Uthèr Mandrakha, rushed back to the Dragons Maw, the fortress that the family is charged with guarding, to ensure that it still stood fast. When he got there, he and all his men were slaughtered, as well as the rest of the Mandrakha family. She is the sole Mandrakha left, and yet she is a Selon.
Age: 41
Occupation(s): None.
Commander Menethil[edit]
Menethil, the high commander of the armies of East Athelaran, grew up in a military family. His father was a high ranking officer before him, and his grandfather was the previous commander. From a young age, he studied combat and war, learning strategy and combat forms that would be fit for any force he may have to lead.
Age: 36
Occupation: The high commander of the Athelaran army.
King Jon Karplan[edit]
The high King of the Nation of Athelaran, with the capitol residing East of the Divide, in the city of Eastern Athelaran. Rather than becoming king through direct succession, he became king through a mysterious string of events in which the previous king was assassinated, along with his only heir. He was distantly related to the kings late brother, and thus, as the only remaining member of the family, the crown ended upon his head.
Age: 28
Occupation: King of Athelaran
Aramonis the Blind[edit]
A man who resides in the pubs all over the Western half of the continent. Travelling from place to place, he is a nomad with a mysterious past, and an ominous appearance.

Redgarr Ironhand[edit]
The large barkeep of the Boar and Board tavern which claims the village of Silvertree as its home. He is a loud, rambunctious sort.

Lord Keperhelm[edit]
The spymaster of Jon Selon and Winters Fist, he keeps close tabs on all of the happenings that occur within Darenfell, but plays his hand close to his chest. If you need information, chances are, he has it. But he's not always so willing to give it.
Age: 29
Occupation: The Lords Ear
Sir Leonhardt[edit]
A grizzled old man by this time, he's seen his share of battle. He is the armsmaster of Winters Fist. He has taken it upon himself to arm and train Jon's Wolves, and ensure that his lord has only the best men at his disposal.
Age: 64
Occupation: Armsmaster
Krelm Harhaven[edit]
