Aldebran 'Witch' Townforge
Picture by Kiselev Andrey Valerevich
Major Arcana: Emperor
Minor Arcana: Seven of Wands
Song:
"Let's be civil and reasonable about this. The world is large and our options many."
For a lowborn elf there are three paths if they wish to rise into the Noble ranks. First and safest is to seduce and have a child with a current member of the nobility. Second is to gain a high enough station in a Lord's army. The third option is the most dangerous in becoming the apprentice of a witch. Apprentices are killed to hide their master's secrets should they fail to ascend. Under strict tutelage they learn varying forms of magic and gain various forms of hidden knowledge. Aldebran was one of the Witches in service to the Lord of Nightrivers directly at one time.
In his meager free time, Aldebran tends to continue his studies in various magical enhancements. Their specific nature is known only to him and his apprentice. Aside from that, he can be found with a pile of sweets and drink playing a board game against any challengers.
Aldebran's official title is Resource Managment Officer. It effectively places him in charge of the civilian wing of the company. When rope is needed, wood for spears, coal for furnaces or flowers for a garden, he trades for what the company needs. A continual challenge he savors no matter how beleagured he claims to be.
