Name Colby mac Arryn
Age 11
Sex Male
Species Human
Ethnicity Serenian
Height 4'10"
Occupation Farm boy
Residence Hylop, a village in Ravensway

Physical Description
Colby is a skinny boy with freckled skin, a gap-toothed grin, and wavy red hair that needs cutting. His garb consists of patchy overalls, with a slingshot jutting from the pocket. He does not believe in shoes.

Personality
Colby is a dreamer, with a head full of big ideas that seldom pan out. He's friendly, chatty with strangers, and curious about the outside world.

Too many little sisters, too many goats to feed, and too many switchings from boorish grown-ups have made Colby just a little bit selfish. He's lazy and willing to cut corners when he can.

Magic/Abilities
Colby is extremely clever, though his only creative outlet is as a prankster. The boy has done great things with rope and buckets of manure. No one is better with a slingshot. At least no one in Hylop.

He wields an encyclopedic knowledge of local legends, and adventure serials.

Relationships
Braith mac Arryn, father, a stern farmer
Idris Eldergleam, mother, a midwife
Maddy nic Arryn, sister, 10
Maeve nic Arryn, sister, 8
Marella nic Arryn, sister, 7

History
Since he was young Colby has feasted on stories of adventure, swordplay, and magic. All of that sounds much better than feeding goats and watching his three little sisters. The farm boy has decided to become a wizard when he gets older. The only problem is he hasn't a lick of magic. He's just got to have some hidden magical power, that's going to awaken in a time of crisis. And it better awaken soon... his father wants him to start work as a stableboy.
