Kip Xol

A middle-class half elf whose parents are former adventurers turned guards (Lara and Guy) in The Librean Union. Kip decided that his parent's jobs seemed rather dangerous and as a result studied wizardry. Apparently Prose and Raem were both in his arcane study classes. After gradating from one of The Librean University, he got a case of wanderlust and decided to travel the world like his parents did. He joined the Ebon Wyverns, a merchant guild, to get the support of an organization no matter where he went. His goal is to make some money while he travels to eventually start up his own magical workshop and preach the word of wide spread acceptance of magic. Might try to make a name for himself somehow.  [Operation God Eater] 

Appearance
Average looking half elf merchant with a easy smile and discerning eyes. Makes friends easily. Has a pet grey hawk called Ilver. Appears stronger than he looks.

Personality
Affable and willing to buy a drink for friends or people willing to give information. Easy smile and laugh. Likes scones very much.

Family
His parents Guy and Lara are former adventurers and settled down in the Librean Union as police force/guards. Father is human, mother is elven. Mother is skilled with bow, father is skilled with sword. Has a younger sister Erica. He writes home when he can.

Journal
[Day 1] - Sold a few goods, went to Ishalem for the Rising, came second in boulder racing, drank with Korgan, took part in chess. Participated in a tourney team duel. Got a [skeleton key] and a strange other [worldly shrunken head] from a strange old man.

[Day 3]- Helped some kids save their leader from a cave with earth children and Blubber. Took a [box of strange crystals in a chest (Sympathy Crystals, Raem has the notes on how to use)]'. Opper died'

[Day 5] - Met the crew manning my old boat(Sharpened Blade), Korgan, Iorven and Pang. Went to a 10 year deserted island by Ishalem to pick up a artifact for Lady Ceridia. On island were wild boars, bears and Kobolds. Got artifact but was ambushed by kobolds. Escaped confinement, got the cube back, and ishalem became black foam. Current status unknown. Knowledge' that abandoned island has kobolds, also Pang's bear Po was left behind. Artifact gave a white glow saving us from the black death.'

[Day 7] - Woke up by an island, boat was trashed and Iorven missing. Went to go look for food and water and met some pirates. Pang was short of hearing and made a tense situation worse. Almost died but recovered. Went to go boil water while Kodran and Pang went to get food. Spent the night on the boat eating wolf stew recovering. Scouted out the pirate cave with Ilver. When all 9 pirates left, we ransacked the place and got food and a map. One the way to the map, I found a toxic plant, causes paralysis of heart by getting into bloodstream(Use for pirate captain?). Getting to the circled area, we met Rose an archer who lived in a village on the island which is decently far from Verdania. Rose was watching the cave and sniped ILVER for FOOD. We agreed to help Rose fight off the pirates(she doesn't trust me much). Currently resting in the Village of [X]. The pirate have a ship which might be better than the one we have now(reward?). We plan to take the fight to the pirates by ambushing them when they come to attack or raiding their cave. Level 3

I remember about verdania from what my acquaintances told me, they practice divine magic and have a distrust of the arcane arts. Be wary Kip.

[Day 8]- Fought off the pirates with Rose, who is an ex-templar paladin. We let them go, after interrogation about their leader, commodore Flynt. Went to go help the villagers with the ship, when the rest of the gang came back with more help, they encountered some wolves and got rekt. Then on the beach encountered an owl bear. Iorven got wreckt. Status of plant unknown, Things taken, owl bear feathers, barbarian helmet, cabbage

[Day 8.5] Showed Rose his junk(freaky head) and she told him there were sighting of such things back when she was a templar. In lumenhold, possible side quest.

[Day 16] Traveling to Lumenhold, went to the village 1/2 way there. Found of an abandoned hut, found this.

I can still hear the cries. They didn't heed my words. They didn't listen to my voice. Now, they are all paying the cost of ignorance. The Sunken One strikes swift and hard. He swats those who oppose Him as if they did not exist at all. The excuses of man fall upon deaf ears. The Sunken One has no pity; He has no mercy, He only sits below and passes sentence. He still hungers. His appetite is voracious. The world grows more and more corrupt, and it angers Him. Our lies and deceit will be our undoing if The Sunken One grows impatient and no longer waits for or accepts the proper offering.

The burden is mine to shoulder. I am the last who knows of He Who Shakes The Ground. If I do not bring him an offering, who knows what bastion of civilization may fall prey to his whim. Water's Edge? Mareport? Or perhaps He will turn his eyes on Lumenhold itself. No, I must not let that happen. I must get the offering to him like my father before me. We all may be fallen in His eyes, but we must have time to learn The Sunken One's teachings. Destroying us now would be a waste, when I am certain that given the chance, we will all come to see His ways. Yes, I will do this thing. I will brave the depths of His gate to see Him. My sword and will be my will and my word. The Sunken One will watch over me and guide me. I must depart soon, before it is too late. If anyone finds this page, let them know that I, Slythe Seringi, do this for the good of all living things.

--Page 2--

As I descend into the depths of His Gate, I wonder to myself... why? Why would The Sunken One test me so? Have I not been loyal? Have I not spread His word? Have I not obeyed His laws? This journey has been cruel and unfair. I've nearly met my end more than once. I don't know if I can make it to His home. But no, I cannot think this way! I must get there! I must see Him. If I do not, then the world of man is doomed. I dare not tarry longer, as I do not wish to suffer His wrath. I must get the offering to Him, lest all Despinia face his wanton destruction and death.
