Older, late 40s Asalani scholar– Conquistador but 12.5% Asalani
I can read!
Lots of field experience
Combat style familiarity– Asalani

QUIRKS
Grammar snob
Will lecture anyone on Asalani culture, including Asalani people
My little toes are missing
People in the Empire who’ve heard of me– famous leading expert within my field– think I’ve lost my marbles

PARTY CONNECTIONS

• Rob: Spent months living with his tribe and knew his parents. Accidentally led the Conquistadors to their door/caused their mass-slaughter. Rob still looks up to as a psuedo-father figure. I am weighed-down by guilt
• Gunther Gomez (Rowland Sadler): Since the slaughter I’ve turned my fixation onto the supernatural. I’ve hired Rowland several times to capture specimens for research
• Dino Wrangler (Oscar Katz): a fellow resident of Kaylor’s Garden, knows me by my reputation
• Barry Cuda (Sam Bebbington) (Sam): Old schoolmates (before I returned yo Cariban for university). Kept in contact through letters as he went to the navy. Reading these is what prompted the slaughter? Sam sailed in with the Navy to rescue me and a young Rob. We are bound by our guilt. Secret childhood crush.

• [1] If it parries or is parried by any weapon, or is used to strike DR 2+, it suffers -1 to cutting damage until repaired (see Blade Composition). In addition, on any successful attack or successful parry against an armed attack, roll 1d; on 1-2, the edge breaks, reducing the macuahuitl to a club that does swing+1 crushing damage. Fortunately, the weapon has two edges–the user can reverse it (a free action) and use the other side until it, too, breaks!
• [2] A kick is at -2 to hit, and if you miss, roll vs. DX to avoid falling! Kicks with boots deal +1 damage.
