 ====Background====
-Troels (Vanar for "Spear of God") was born a __human__ in a simple herding village in the mountains of [[Vanien]], one of the semi-Viking nations on the shores of the [[Sea of Karrak]].  It was a simple life, and about age ten, he was trusted enough to look after a flock in one of the less nearby pastures.
+Troels (Vanar for "Spear of God") was born a __human__ in the simple herding village of Bjorstadt in the mountains of [[Vanien]], one of the semi-Viking nations on the shores of the [[Sea of Karrak]].  It was a simple life, and about age ten, he was trusted enough to look after a flock in one of the less nearby pastures.
 In the early spring of his eleventh year, Troels was trying to bring the flock back to the village before a nasty storm hit: he failed.  The track he was walking along washed out from under him, sending the boy down the long, muddy slope of the mountainside, and into the spring-melt strengthened river.  He was washed downstream for far longer than he was remotely happy with, and managed to struggle ashore at the mouth of a side-stream, which he followed into a cave, and later passed out from exhaustion and hypothermia, his last thoughts on wanting to live.

 ====Persona====
 Troels is young, inexperienced in the wider world, and possibly out of his depth.  Fortunately, he's cute, earnest, and hardworking.  He's supported himself over the last month or so mostly by weather divination, and helping to illuminate the Equinox festival.  (He's not a Sun & Shadow school (House Glamourous) mage, his Orb of Borealis only lasts hours, not days).
+====Appearance====
+Troels is a 4'3", 75 pound Kobold with light blue scales and short, upward curved ivory colored horns.  His tail is three times longer than is normal for the race, and while not as useful as a leg, he has sufficient control over it to stick an Orb of Borealis spell on the tip and hold it over his shoulder.  He is, by the standards of most races, adorably cute.  The claws on the ends of his four fingers and toes are no more dangerous than mammalian fingernails.  He has blue eyes, and no hair.

 Much of the early path of the Storm-Dragon school focuses on weather manipulation magic.  Troels is only now beginning to tap into the //dragon// side of the philosophy, and where that will lead, only his Book-scale really knows for certain.
-Troels' equipment consists of a cane-length ice-axe (serrated pick and adze blades) that Rasgrid would find a suitable one-handed weapon, and the taller members of the group a bit undersized.  He wears light scale armor, and is proficient with the sling (for those days he wants to be quiet about things).
+Troels' equipment consists of an imperial infantry casting rod (which for one of his height, is a staff), and a dueling wand enchanted with the //Brass Needle// spell.  He wears [[aelum]] scale armor with heavy leather gloves, footwear, and assorted pads.  He is proficient with the sling, and wears a number of pieces of support jewelry.  His familiar, Wil, dwells in a Dr. Strange grade milky quartz brooch.
