• Relationship: Icy at best, mostly of gentle tolerance and secret denial. She’s ashamed of having him, but for his sake, she tried her best to be a loving mother while still upholding a respectable public image, leading to a disconnect between the two of them and the feeling of something missing.

Extended family:

• Grandparents: Two of them on his mother’s side who are around 300/400. They don’t see each other much.
• Uncles and aunts: His mother is the oldest of three girls, so he has two aunts who have their own families.

Who are their closest friends? Kai the drow and Nahaliel the Tiefling, both outcasts and adventuring mates of his.
Who are their other significant friends? The other members of his campaign.
Enemies? No-one but the evil parts of himself that live inside his head.
How are they perceived by:

• strangers in the street? A little aloof, somewhat out of place, unusual.
• authority figures? A potential delinquent based on looks alone, a harmless individual based on personality and manners.
• friends in their friend circles? Adorably aloof and definitely worth protecting.
• Children? Strange but harmlessly friendly, a good listener and a good storyteller.
• the opposite sex? The who, now?
• extended family?

What’s their role in a group dynamic? Second in command, the wise man people turn to when they need advice or someone to listen.
