Zaknalimar Farrington
One of the bastard sons of the Secret Lord of Luskan, the Drow Jarlaxle. He shares his father's flair as a "showy peacock" and not taking things too seriously moment-to-moment. A playful sense of humor helps him keep his team together, and he is quite popular within the Drow mercenary force (his father also leads) called the Bregan D'aerthe. His (human) mother is Theodora Farrington, a Lady in Waiting to House Sutcliffe of Neverwinter.
In fact, Zak brings flair and festivity to much of what he does. In a tavern with an instrument and song, in a performance on a stage in the town square, or in a swordfight - he is always thinking about style and how to LOOK GOOD doing whatever he is doing. Fortunately, the fancy for-show swordsmanship he has learned turns out to be pretty effective in actual combat as well. He already has much to tell of early adventures as a sailor, a mercenary soldier, a pirate, and a trouble-making scoundrel - but never, ever anything to embarrass his father, whose respect he enjoys and would never jeopardize.
