Biography:

When I was a child, my father lit lamps, as did his father before him.  It runs very far in my family, lamp care-taking that is.  For generations and generations my family has been light, and putting out the lights in the great city of Kelethin.  After I eat my supper, I go all around the city and set the lamps.  This takes almost all night. This is caused a fair amount by the 4’-6” stilts I wear, so that I can reach the high up lamps.  When I am finally done I can go to sleep.  I’ll get about 2 or 3 hours of sleep until I have to wake up again and put out the lamps.  This is what I have been doing since I was 16.  Until the last year.  Last year, when I turned 25, my younger brother, Kaleart took over the family business.  So for the first time in my life, I had no job, no future and no where to be.  I took this opportunity to widen my horizons.   Just recently I have taken up music.  I am not the best bard around, but mind you I can sing quite well.  My most favorite pastime is to get together with another wandering adventurer and go to the closest dungeon.  I tend to hold back and help my fellow adventurers. But often times my friends need help, so I will provide them with an extra hand.
