Ambrose Pennywhistle

Adgar Callagne

In far north North Morley lies the town of Raven’s Perch, a tiny village of hunters and farmers who pretty much kept to themselves; at least until the local lord (or Sherrif / Constabulary )and a band of armored soldiers rolled into the village, along with a woman in a green cloak. This woman razed the village with powerful magic while the soldiers put the villagers to the sword. The object of their attention appeared to be the village Chieftess, Helaine Whitefeather, whom they bound and gagged and threw over the end of one of their horses and headed out of the village, leaving death and ruin in their wake. Ambrose and several of the other children were saved by a hunter named Bergan secreted them out of the village during the attack. Bergan and the children were forced to become Highwaymen, living outside of the law for many years. As the son of the village physicker, Ambrose had some skill with medicine and would stitch up Bergan and the older kids. When he came of age, Ambrose left Bergan and the rest of the surviving members of his tribe and made his way to Eadwald. He ministers to the sick and elderly, often for little or no money. He uses his access as a healer to gather information, hoping to find some clue as to the identity of the Green Witch and the reason for the attack on his village.
