How drastic they are depends on when your game is set, and whether you do this "backstory" thing or not. If life begins in 1620 for you, there's no real change, I suspect.

Not a lot of point, as she's presented now. BTW, just a thought, but I wonder if the problem is that Issaries are using the word "stern" in a rather odd way that isn't the way anyone else or a dictionary would read it. It could simply mean that she doesn't show her emotions openly, without all the connotations of hostility and sense- -humour-failure that the word would normally carry.

No, I just find it amusing. Like the count of the number of Humakti in Sartar, and the deduction that they're *all* PCs!

Why does he "owe" her - she found him, later, but what did she do about it?

Nice! We now borrow him for the Whitewall list and our collection of interesting NPCs :)

Also sounds like fun. He can go on in depth about how bad she is for trade, if you like. I don't know any details, but anyone who goes around starting fights that much can't be good for peace and stability, can she? Taxes, after 1613?
