===NPCs===

'''Sgt Helmbane''' is a dwarven male that stands at 4'8", 205lbs. He is one of the two leaders of the party's double fist. He is very gruff and does not speak much. He comes across as very gruff and mistrusting. He is obviously a lifelong soldier that is new to command.
  
'''Madame LaRue'''
+
'''Sgt Trimmack''' is a human male that stands at 6'3", 215lbs of pure chiseled muscle. He is one of the two leaders of the party's double fist. His skin is dark as ebony aside from a few red scars that trace his skin. He speaks with an air of confidence, but is not cocky. He speaks as a man who has faced overwhelming odds and came through the victor.
Owns a Tea shop that also sells magical potions and other herbal concoctions for those in need. She also reads Tarot, palms and of course, tea leaves. Has five children all named Wyaar based on her unrequited love for a human paladin that she once spoke to briefly when she visited Hook City years ago--she is a widow.
+
  
'''Candy BadApple'''
+
'''Qualtmie Redfist Northernvoice''' -- also known as "Q" -- is the quartermaster of the Fist's Citadel. She is a halfling, small even by halfling standards, with olive skin, almond-shaped eyes, and a shock of bright red hair that seems almost unnatural. She is nervous when things go wrong. She owes the party a favor for ridding her stores of a rat infestation.
Leader of the halfling pranksters known as the BadApples. She is in her early adolescence and is the oldest of the group, naturally making her the “face” of them all. She is an orphan, born to a rich mother and father over in Angel Springs, but when they both died an untimely death caused by their burrow caving in, Candy was forced to spend her inheritance on their funerals, and rebuilding the burrow. She still owns the burrow in Angel Springs, but would never dare tell anyone of this for fear that the other BadApples wouldn’t accept her anymore.
+
 
+
'''Hugo & Primula PipeLeaf'''
+
The best known crafter in the town is Hugo PipeLeaf and he runs the Slings and Arrows shop. Specializing in slings and leatherworking himself, he decided to woo and marry the best blacksmith in Angel Springs, one Primula Pipeleaf. Primula is a beautiful halfling gal, with long flowing red hair, and big green eyes. She does not look like a blacksmith at first sight, but is nevertheless one of the best in Crescent Valley.
+
 
+
'''Mulberry DrinkWater'''
+
She is Humble’s Ford’s very own “Beauty Queen.” Although her title is self-proclaimed, it seems that no one ever tries to contest her on the issue. Mulberry is indeed beautiful, and is rather obsessed with staying that way and projecting her image of her as the “Only” Beauty Queen as far and wide as she possibly can.
+
 
+
'''Pirnook DeepPockets'''
+
The general store is owned by Pirnook Deeppockets. He is stingy to the bone; however, he is a shrewd businessman and knows which side his bread is buttered, though he hates the phrase. In fact, he keeps a list of annoying things folks say on the outside of his store with a pronouncement that they cannot be uttered inside.
+
 
+
'''Mayor Bingo BumbleLuck'''
+
Humble’s Burrow is the traditional home for the current mayor, who is Bingo BumbleLuck. A gossip and social climber of modest ability, he is the perfect mayor for a town full of halflings that don’t fit into the big Angel Springs and its socializing rich folk, or the traditionalists of Hovel.
+
 
+
'''Second Dinner Club (Veseley Vortence, Tiana Taithen, and Bazeck Breezelee)'''
+
A loose group of 3 Mages called the Second Dinner Club, lives here and is in charge of maintaining the “Giant Towers” that keep the Giant’s Spring Raids at bay. They succeed mostly, but with difficulty at times. One thing that often goes wrong is when powers other than their own attempt to undo their work to the towers. They reside in the tower near the northern edge of Humbles Ford, and are always experimenting with new things. Sometimes their trial and error method produces major mishaps; but it’s never anything they can’t resolve with a little further experimentation.
+
 
+
'''High Priest of Flower-- Sarabella LoveSong'''
+
Despite the reputation of the town, the High Priest of Flower lives here in Humbles Ford. Elderly though she may be, she is almost like the glue that holds the town together. Her daily praises and prayers to her Goddess Flower brings about the “saving grace” of Humbles Ford itself. She firmly believes that it is through her Goddesses love for the flowers of the valley alone that the town remains strong. Even through the hard times Humbles Ford has been facing since they stop trading with the Giantkind, Sarabella’s faith never wavers a bit.
+
 
+
'''Humble Old One-- McGregor HeadWise'''
+
The towns Eldest, and wisest Halfling. He lives in a burrow on the northern side of town, and for the most part, stays in his home. His living expenses are mostly paid for by the townsfolk, and they don’t mind a bit. What little gold the Humble Old One does have, it is mostly from gifts to him or tips for his advice and general help to the townsfolk. The people of Humbles Ford are very grateful to have someone like McGregor HeadWise to turn to in times of trouble or when they are in need of advice.
+
 
+
'''Genokal MoonWhisper'''
+
Genokal is seen to be the “leader” of sorts to the Hairfeet Clan. He is the one that most of the townsfolk never get the chance to talk to, as when the occasional customer stops by their caravan, Genokal is always busy with something else. He’s always looking over his shoulder, seeming paranoid to most, although won’t ever admit to anyone that he’s ever doing anything wrong. He keeps a sharp eye out for the authorities, and is sure to always be doing something proper, fair and completely legal whenever they come around the Hairfeet Clans’ caravan.
+
 
+
'''Eldon and Cora TossCobble'''
+
Eldon (age 70) has served as the town’s “handyman” for as long as any hafling can remember. He and his wife Cora (age 72) were married at a young age and are just as much in love as they were when they first met . Although aged, both have an unrelenting glow and charm that brightens anyone’s day who runs onto them. They are both huge supporters and fans of the “Games of the Little Ones”, as Eldon used to be “quite the athlete in his younger years” according to Cora. The couple picks a team every event and shows them support by having them over for dinner. Eldon takes the mealtime to give advice for the games and show off his medals and “lucky copper coin”.
+
 
+
'''Theadric Orgulas'''
+
Theadric (middle-aged) is one of the few, tragic characters in the Ford. Once a daring explorer, Theadric traveled the Crescent Valley with his brother, Bolger. It was after his brother’s death ,while exploringthe Red Hills,  that Theadric’s spirit (most believe) was forever shattered. This once hafling adventurer now spends his days as a “pleaser”, travelling between bars and getting free drinks out of pity or respect, from those who know of his loss. Few have the nerve or bravery to approach this man. For as he is considered nothing more than a drunk by casual observers, those with a keen eye know that a resourceful and deadly warrior still lurks behind the dead, pale, blue eyes of this broken halfling.
+
 
+
'''Rosco Hornblower'''
+
Roscoe (age 60) is the head of the town’s guard. He is friendly in casual conversation, but serious and determined in matters of the law. Rosco commands a small troop of halfling soldiers known simply as “The Guard”. He rarely has issues greater than bar fights and drunken nuisances, and usually only has his guardsmen escort the offenders back to their respective homes. He has no concern with issues outside of the town and will never send his men to help in such situations. When the “Games” are in full swing, he also serves as a referee, by watching for cheaters. He is a strong believer in fairness in all aspects of the town’s daily life.     
+
 
+
'''Halfred Humble'''
+
Halfred (age 78) is a kind, old farmer who is adored by all. Halfred’s family started sprawling farm across the river just north of Humble’s Ford, generations ago. It was their discovery of the shallow ford in that very river, that led them to start the town that it was named after. The Humble family has used most of their wealth to develop the town. They are loved by all and considered to be the backbone of the community.
+
 
+
'''Blossom BumbleLuck – The mayor’s daughter. Very full of herself quite snobby and bossy.

'''The Belly Buster'''
+
Here you'll find links to all the events and history relevant to this game.  
The Belly Buster is known around the valley for it's spectacular dishes of everything from lamb chops to grilled salmon, from perfectly cooked chicken & eggs to finely aged cheeses of every kind! The BB is a comfortable place of dining and drinking that any Halfling can anjoy Gourmet-style food of their races most favorable choices. Most "Busters" can be found in the tavern chowing down on a different dish almost every night and day. Despite being the home of all of the best dishes in Crescent Valley, The BB has only a few drinks to choose from, but the few that they do have are high quality, fine wines, liquors, and ripe fruit drinks for the children that come with their parents.
+
  
'''The Dancing Pig'''
+
*Here is the [http://www.woldiangames.com/games/index.html?game=agents current game board].
The Dancing Pig is named for the wild hog that the local hunters tried to bring in for years. When they finally got him, he was trapped instead of killed and set loose in the DP kitchen causing several injuries. The DP, however, after killing it, embraced the pig, cooked him and took on their new name; The Dancing Pig. No one even remembers the previous name of the inn anymore, since all they talk about is the story of how it got its new name. It has a large central fancy dance floor, and a Wold-wide assortment of ales, beers, liquors, wines, whiskeys, rums, and every other tasty drink one could imagine! Most "Pits" can be seen drinking like fish and getting their boogie on in their favorite pub at least 4 nights of any given week.

*Here are the [http://www.woldiangames.com/archives/index.html?game=Agents game archives].
 
+
'''The North Tower'''
+
Home to the Second Dinner Club, this is where many of their experiments are tried, tested, and sometimes failed. Instead of living in the side of a hill in a proper Burrow home, the mages built this tower with their own magic, to resemble the Giant Towers to the north. Many times, there has been seen small explosions heard coming from the tower, and small fires or smoke billowing from its windows at odd hours of the day and night.
+
 
+
'''Flower Temple'''
+
Dedicated to the Goddess of Love herself, the people of Humbles Ford built this Temple long ago after Flower came here and “Loved the Flowers of the Valley.” It is ran by the High Priest of Flower, Sarabella LoveSong. A good majority of the townsfolk come here often for services, love each other, and to give praise to, or pray to, and all-around worship their Goddess; Flower, the Goddess of Love.
+
 
+
'''Center for The Enlightened Spirituality & Arcane Arts'''
+
Located near the Flower Temple, this is a place for parents to send their children to come to learn more about the Gods of the Wold and for those who wish to further their education of Arcana. The CESAA is run with funds provided by the the Flower Temple and the 2nd dinner club. Whether the student is a book-worm Wizard in training, studying spellbooks hard day and night; a neophyte Sorcerer, just learning how to harness their magic; an aspiring Bard, or a Witch experimenting with different mixtures and concoctions, or even a young cleric to be. This all-in-one center of mystical arts is the place to be for a young Halfling just getting started on their path to magical greatness!
+
 
+
'''General Store'''
+
The General Store is owned by Pirnook Deeppockets. He is stingy to the bone, and never lets anyone slip through the door without parting with some gold if he can help it. He keeps a list of annoying things folks say on a sign outside of his store with a pronouncement that they cannot be uttered inside. The General Store is one of the bigger shops on the commercial street running north to south in the center of Humbles Ford.
+
 
+
'''Humbles Burrow'''
+
Humble’s Burrow is the traditional home for the current mayor, Bingo Humblebutt. It is arguably the largest dwelling in the town, aside from the North Tower, but few can say they’ve actually seen the inside of it. It’s many windows, several chimneys almost always billowing out smoke, and larger than average round double doors set it apart from the other burrows in the northeast residential area of town.
+
 
+
'''Slings and Arrows'''
+
The Slings and Arrows shop is one of the busiest buildings in the commercial area. In a prime location on the main road running through town, it is hard to miss Hugo and Primula PipeLeaf’s place of business. Once it was just a shop for Hugo’s wooden crafts and weapons to be sold, but after he married Primula, they couple added another room onto the building to hold all of the armors and metal weapons to be held in as well. The place is always bustling with people wanting new means to protect themselves, and the PipeLeafs are well known to have the best deal in the valley for such things.
+
 
+
'''The Humble Farm'''
+
This farm is the major provider of livestock, fruits, vegetables, and textiles for the Hovel, Humble’s Ford, and Angel Springs. It gathers water from both the mountains to the north and the river that it borders. The farm stretches in a long strip of land from the Hovel to just west of Angel Springs. Many halflings make their living working on the farm or by transporting/distributing its plentiful bounty.
+
 
+
'''Smallholding Farrier'''
+
Owned by one Primula Pipeleaf. Primula is a beautiful halfling gal, with long flowing red hair, and big green eyes. She does not look like a blacksmith at first sight, but is nevertheless one of the best in Crescent Valley.
+

Revision as of 13:26, 13 December 2013

Welcome to Agents of the Fist! This game was formed by players of the Blackbird Lake game after the heroes in that game retired. Some of the Agents PCs have a connection to those heroes. This game tells the story of a party of adventurers who start off as mercenaries and eventually gain acclaim and renown in their own right -- while grappling with the tensions and contradictions between being both soldiers-for-hire and noble heroes.

Game Background

The Mailed Fist mercenary company is trying a new organizational structure: teams of eight recruits led by two sergeants. The characters in this game form one such "Double Fist" -- and may be the test case that proves the worth of the concept, or not!

Characters

These are the characters, past and present, that have been featured in this game.

Current Roster

Sgt Trimmack is a human male that stands at 6'3", 215lbs of pure chiseled muscle. He is one of the two leaders of the party's double fist. His skin is dark as ebony aside from a few red scars that trace his skin. He speaks with an air of confidence, but is not cocky.
