Recruiting for an adventure

[The Stranger]

I'd like to recruit about 6 players to make characters for an adventure.

In the adventure you will play agents of Lord Saxon Cave, conducting a secret mission, in a traditional RP-style.

Please make a character using the rules for Seconds. Characters can be noble or low born, but shouldn't come from any notable house (aka any house currently played by PCS or by significant NPCS, but minor houses would be ok)

Ser Creighton of the Vale has no noble blood running in his veins, born the only son of a carpenter in Gulltown, Creighton's life has always been simple. Always make sure to have food and ale at your table and you'll have a good life. Creighton spent his youth working for his father, but soon found other means to earn some coin by serving a merchant in Gulltown by breaking into the merchant's rivals warehouses and did everything from stealing, vandalizing to beating up people in exchange for money. He was conscripted into the army when Westeros warred in the Stepstones were he served as a footman in the Vale army. He fought and survived and by either luck or godly intervention, Creighton returned from the war with a knightly title, though the man that had knighted him died shortly after departing the ship that had sailed into King's Landing for resupplying before continuing to the Vale. Ser Creighton stayed behind when the ship sailed, having decided that there were far more opportunities in King's Landing than in Gulltown. He soon came in contact with Lord Saxon Cave and have since worked for the man doing similar work that he did for the merchant in Gulltown, though Creighton tries his best to keep his affiliation to Lord Saxon to a minimum.    

Character Physical Description:

Ser Creighton is a rather short man, standing just above 5 feet 6 inches, with a muscled but chubby build. His hair is receding, so he has taken up the custom of shaving his head bare, while he sports a small beard along his chin and a goatee. He has stubby-fingered hands and he is missing the little finger on his right hand, and his beady dark eyes are hiding beneath bushy eyebrows.  


Character Reputation:

He has no reputation of importance.

[Lord Yohn Baratheon]

I'd like to... But if someone else is really really wanting I could pass it on, just be kind to ask.

[Edric Stark]

Me too.

[Marie]

I'm up for that.

[The Stranger]

Don't tell me that you want to, just make the character and post it here.

If you miss this one, but it goes well, I will do other ones in the future so don't think you'll never have a chance if you miss this one.

[The Stranger]

Everyone should be a character who is already in the service of Lord Saxon.

Character Name: Markus Roxton
Character Age: Unknown (Mid 30s?)
Character Nationality: Oldtown

Character Skills:
Noteworthy: Espionage
Noteworthy: Small Blades
Apprentice: Stealth
Apprentice: Disguise
Novice: Deception
Novice: Intrigue
Beginner: Thrown Weapons
Beginner: Animal Handling

Character Personal History: Markus' history is unremarkable. Born to a large family of well-to-do wine merchants in Oldtown, Markus knew from a young age that his future was not in the trading of goods or the keeping of ledgers, as his brothers were destined to do. His family ran a successful business, but they were by no means rich enough to simply support the abundance of children that populated the household, and on his sixteenth name-day Markus was turned out of the house with a few hundred silver stags and the clothes on his back. He worked odd jobs in Oldtown, primarily working for merchants who hired him to spy on their competitors and unearth information to discredit or humiliate them on behalf of whoever was employing him at the time. After a run-in with a particularly vengeful spice trader, Markus fled Oldtown and eventually wound up in King's Landing. There, he kept much to his old trade, acquiring and subsequently selling useful tidbits of knowledge, of which there were an abundance. After several years he was noticed by Lord Saxon Cave, and after a series of tasks to test his ability and loyalty, he entered the man's service as a seeker of secrets.

Character Physical Description: His appearance is utterly forgettable, with a mop of brownish-blond hair and a face that was so plain you could forget it mere seconds after looking away. His build was lanky, with longer arms and legs than you would expect for a man of his unimpressive height, but the way he moves gives hides a smooth grace.


Character's Reputation: He has none.
