Aegon’s Troupe

Main Party

Aegon

Elf / Level 1 Feywarden of Corellon/Level 1 Mage
Aegon is an orphan raised by the sage Gorion in Candlekeep. Growing up in a library, he has developed a passion for reading.

Aegon learned the ways of the Weave from his stepfather, and the ways of the elves by visitors to Candlekeep. He has devoted himself as a Feywalker to Corellon Larethian.

Aegon’s foster father Gorion took him away from the keep when he came of age. On the first night he was killed protecting Aegon, by an armoured figure with glowing eyes.

Aegon set out to find friends of Gorion at the Friendly Arm Inn. There he met Khalid and Jaheira who joined him on his quest. He also saved the rakshasa, Verr’Sza, who in return vowed to help Aegon get his vengeance.

Aegon became the Deliverer of Letters after promising to fulfil Bartleby Quickfoot’s dying wish.

He travelled to Nashkel where he met Minsc and Edwin, who both wanted to go to the Gnoll Stronghold for their own reasons.


Cat

Cat / Familiar
The cat is Aegon’s magical familiar. Unlike other cats, Cat is sentient and able to help Aegon in various ways. Their lives are magically bonded – if one dies, so does the other.

As it turns out, Cat is pretty vicious. He has already tallied up a lot of kills against people attacking Aegon’s Troupe.


Verr’Sza

Rakshasa / Level 2 Naztharune Ranger
Verr’Sza is a rakshasa that was petrified so he could be sold as a statue to a potential buyer. Aegon turned him back to flesh and killed his kidnapper. With Aegon’s help, Verr’Sza hunted and killed the man who was to buy him. In return, Verr’Sza has agreed to help Aegon find his father’s killer and get revenge.

He seems very interested in Aegon’s quest for vengeance, constantly asking about his intention to kill those responsible for his father’s death.

He helped hunt down the ogre with a belt fetish. He helped to recover Joia’s ring from hobgoblin bandits. He was killed by the Caravan Bandit Leader on the Coast Way.

He rejoined Aegon on his journey to Nashkel, helping to clear the Trade Way of hobgoblins.

He joined in the first assault on the xvart village.

Deaths: 1


Helga

Dwarf / Level 2 Priest of Haela
Helga became a priest after she was attacked by a pack of wolves, and was nursed back to health by followers of Haela Brightaxe.

She is the mother of two. After they followed in her footsteps, Helga decided to return to life as an adventurer. She respects both Minsc and Boo as warriors, likening them both to dwarves.

Helga is a good cook, and generally prepares the food for the rest of the party.

Helga was found by Aegon just after slaying an ogre on the road to the Friendly Arm Inn. She told him of an “ogre king” that she seeks to slay. Aegon agreed to help her hunt it, and she joined his troupe on their journey.

She helped Verr’Sza get revenge against the men who tried to sell him. She encouraged the troupe to hunt the ogre with a belt fetish on the Coast Way. She stayed at the Friendly Arm Inn for a while to help tend to Vienxay’s wounds.

She was killed by the Caravan Bandit Leader on the Coast Way.

She rejoined Aegon on his journey to Nashkel, helping to clear the Trade Way of hobgoblins and ogre-kin.

She joined in the first assault on the xvart village.

Deaths: 1


Minsc

Human / Level 2 Barbarian Ranger
Minsc seeks to save his charge Dynaheir, who has been kidnapped by Gnolls. Aegon has agreed to help in the rescue. He is a large man, covered in tattoos, and strangely obsessed with his pet hamster. He likes to break open doors.

He is already familiar with Valerie, having fought alongside her before. After finding out that Verr’Sza isn’t human, he has developed a mistrust for the Rakshasa. Helga, however, has respect for both him and Boo as warriors.

He joined in the first assault on the xvart village.


Boo

Hamster / Miniature Giant Space Hamster (?)
Boo is Minsc’s small pet hamster and best friend. He seems like a normal rodent, but Minsc insists he is actually a miniature giant space hamster.

He has proven to be good at annoying Edwin.


Edwin

Human / Level 2 Conjurer
Edwin is a Red Wizard of Thay that talks to himself too much. He also seems to lack social skills, and excuses this by blaming others for his failed social interactions.

He has joined Aegon so they can travel to the Gnoll Stronghold together. However, he seeks to kill Minsc’s witch, Dynaheir, which is causing a small rift in the Troupe.

He joined in the first assault on the xvart village.


Reserves

Jaheira

Half-elf / Circle Enforcer (Level 2 Fighter/Level 2 Druid)
Jaheira is the wife of Khalid and an old friend of Gorion’s. They have taken in Gorion’s ward after the death of their friend. Currently they are on a mission to Nashkel to try and find out what is happening with the mines.

She turned Verr’Sza back into flesh, and helped him get revenge. She convinced Chase not to jump off a cliff, though he didn’t really seem to need convincing.

She helped hunt down an ogre with a belt fetish. On trying on one of the ogre’s belts her body was changed to that of a man. Thankfully she was later able to remove the curse with Gellana’s special soap.

Imoen

Human / Level 1 Adventurer
Imoen is a childhood friend of Aegon’s and the ward of Winthrop. She seemed to know a bit more about Gorion’s reasons for leaving Candlekeep than she was letting on. She also wanted to join Aegon and Gorion on their travels, despite knowing Gorion would never allow it.

Imoen snuck out of Candlekeep and followed Aegon and Gorion as they travelled towards the Friendly Arm Inn. After Gorion’s death, she caught up with Aegon and vowed to stick with him until the end.

After Vienxay killed the assassin, Tarnesh, Imoen took interest in his spellbook and began to study it. Her studies led her to cast a spell that created a book with unknown powers.

She helped to rescue Verr’Sza from being sold as a statue. She helped to save Neera from the Red Wizards that were pursuing her. She killed Silke after she tried to trick Aegon’s troupe into murdering some innocent men. Afterwards she seemed to take a liking to the Garrick.

She is currently shopping in Beregost and will meet Aegon in the Jovial Juggler.


Vienxay

Elf / Level 1 Shadowmage
Vienxay worked under her master, Luna, in the hopes of rising higher in the elven courts of Evermeet. It was Luna who started teaching her the ways of the Shadow Weave. She discovered that her master had been experimenting on, and killing, other elves. Before Vienxay could expose her master, Luna betrayed her and pinned the deaths on Vienxay. As a result, she was exiled, and now seeks revenge against the master who betrayed her.

Her trail has led her to her former lover Lacius in Nashkel. Aegon agreed to travel with her to Nashkel and help seek him out.

He’s a little unsure of his singing, though his songs still inspire the party. Braegar doesn’t think much of his “caterwauling”, however.

He is currently composing ballads in the Jovial Juggler.


Aura

Gnome / Level 1 Artificer
Aura Glimmershine is a Lantanese gnome who spent some time in Kara-Tur after being shipwrecked by a magical storm. Though she loved her life in Lantan, she left because she had three things to do. One of which is searching the Sword Coast for a man, though she isn’t willing to talk about the other two things yet. She has joined with Aegon’s Troupe in the hopes of finding the man she is looking for during their travels.

She is currently chasing Muffy in the Red Sheaf in Beregost.


Muffy the Clockwork Squirrel

Clockwork Squirrel
Muffy is a clockwork squirrel created by Aura. Somehow it acts as if it is alive, though Aura won’t reveal how she managed to achieve this. It likes to “eat” gems and small pieces of jewellery, though these can be retrieved from its stomach if we need them back.

It is currently annoying Aura in the Red Sheaf in Beregost.


Emily

Half-Elf / Level 1 Archer
Emily’s father is on his last legs, and his responsibilities are to be passed on to one of his children. Neither her nor her brother are considered worthy since she is rumoured to be bastard-born, and her brother is a “selfish entitled brat”. She has left to go travelling for a while and avoid the problems at home.

Emily wishes to eventually travel to Baldur’s Gate to find her birth mother, who is an elf that her father loved before he married. She has traded her skills as an archer for Aegon’s company travelling to Baldur’s Gate at some point in the future.
