![]() Hopefully not all of these characters will come along: optimal party size should be about 6, counting Dlamúz and T’kan. Each character has their own hidden motivations which may bring them into conflict with each other, but if everybody behaves honorably, it should be possible to satisfy virtually everybody's goals. There are 7 additional pre-generated characters for the other players. It is ignoble to admit such base reasons, however, so he keeps quiet about his motivations, telling the clan he wished to feel part of a long chain of priests and scholars. He believes the clan of the White Crystal will support a scholar, so he joined them. T’kan joined this clan for financial reasons: the clan of the Iron Fist refused to pay for his advancement in either the army or the priesthood, and T’kan did not wish them to gain from his career. The few who had tried to speak with him found him reserved and distant, except when talking about his archaeological studies, or his paintings.

However, Dlamúz has a dark secret: two days ago, he stumbled across a hidden scroll of his father's that indicates that he had terrible gambling debts, and that he gave away some of the jewelry buried in the older tombs to cover these debts. For now, Dlamúz is considered steady and responsible by Néqo hiArsanmra, the Clan Head, and he may be asked to accept the position permanently. Dlamúz is provisionally taking care of the burial records until the clan can decide on a suitable replacement. Dlamúz hiSankolum Dlamúz's clanfather Haikon hiSankolum was one of the clan archivists, in charge of the clan's burial records, and he passed away about two months ago from injuries suffered after a bad fall when he left a party after drinking too much.
