36 Home of Tanner Elbrum, 19 year old human male. Rumors abounded Tan. Some said he could shape shift, that he saved Zamora from a crushing end. Others claimed that he ran from battle, yet performed bravely against overwhelming odds. He has shown a definite talent for music, particularly with his flute. He and Artemus often entertain at the village inn. In Coldeven, 582, Tan brought down the house with a rousing performance. Tanner is a flamboyant, chaotic spirit. He's been known to be especially kind to the needy and underprivileged. However, there is a dark side to Tanner Elbrum that people seldom see. While Tanner views his companions in the highest regard and cherishes their friendship, it's quite a different story when it comes to his enemies. He has a parrot companion, Oscar; a light riding horse, Whitefire, which he uses for his morning rides; and a heavy war horse, Thunder, which he takes on his adventures. Tan had not been seen, nor has he been seeing, for some time. Suddenly, calm as you please, the very bearded, and somewhat grumpy, but with his sight restored, Tan returned to the village near the end of Harvester, accompanied by a non-descript human named Wilhelm.
37 The Unseen Blade Tan Elbrum opened this adventuring guild in Planting, 582. In Reaping, 582, before he left town, he placed it in the capable hands of Shantyra the Ranger and Saugus the Hunter.

Speaking of big brutes, Grummie has a special enmity towards giants. "The bigger they are ... ."
Also residing here is Kellay Darkshadow [NG hf T2]; hp 15; D 17, C 16; ring +1NWP: Disguise, Appraising, Rope Use. What is known about her comes from a brief encounter I had with her. "I'm a liberator by profession. That is, I liberate jewelry, baubles, and other riches from those who obviously have more than they need. Why they don't appreciate me and my kind more, I have no idea. You'd think they'd be glad to be rid of all that unnecessary and almost completely useless gold and gems cluttering up their mansions. Unfortunately, the wealthy (and everybody else for that matter) have no appreciation for those in my profession and are always sending the town guard after us. Luckily, the guard have yet to find me. I'm the kind of person most wouldn't look twice at. Brown hair, kinda colorless eyes, and clothes to match allow me to blend into crowds quite nicely. Oh, sure, I suppose I'm a little taller than most women, but I can easily make myself seem shorter if I have to. Besides, when you combine my height, short hair, and wiry figure, most don't even think that I am a woman!
"Lately, I've been doing a lot of traveling. You know, see the world outside the big city. Oh, and by the way, if a big guy who calls himself Scar DeathBlade asks for me, I was never here and you've never heard of Kellay Darkshadow."
as well as, Axiom D'Rune [CG hm F2]; hp 22; S 18/92, D 16, C 16. At 6'9", 280lbs Axiom is hard to miss. He has short cropped black hair, with sky blue/yellow eyes. Axiom D'rune works on the river barges that deliver supplies to the village. He spends most of his time in the bar but oddly doesn't drink like most of his sailor brethren. That is not to say he can't still be quite loud and obnoxious. He lives by the honor of the sea (working previously on an ocean Pinnance before the Captain was devoured by a kraken). He is currently looking to get out of his current place of employment and if something sounded interesting he would gladly leave it in a heartbeat.

He is noticeable due to his yellow boots and huge orange turban. When he's had a bit too much to drink, he tells the Saga of Yragael the Narcomancer, a rather boring tale. Since the owner Grummie Grumorald is a gnome also, few dare to tell Boilone to shut up when he comes to the song part of the story! He is very dedicated to St Cuthbert. [Boilone was the first 3ed Ed PC to reside in Chatwin. He ventures in the Living Greyhawk campaign setting.]
