Brendov Lee is a human, originally from the Kingdom of Eredhest who served as a cabin boy with Matthew Colton's fleet. Nobody really took much notice of him when he washed ashore, and he was taken in by some friendly gnomes. After about 5 years, shortly after turning 17, he set off to see the world. He wound up on a caravan before the Trade Road was complete, and realized there was an opening in the Passmouth/Spilled Ink economy for him to start a successful business transporting goods just between the two cities.
He speaks fluent gnomish, elvish, and halfling, and is passable in dwarvish, draconic, and Anumanu Common. (Native tongue is Ered, and also speaks Tiresian.)
Lives like a lord in a mansion in Passmouth, but isn't actually that rich, it's just a really poor town. Hobbies include philosophical debate and the Masked Mare Society, a secretive group of people who enjoy pretending to be other people who lived hundreds of years ago. Has a gorilla anthro manservant named Muprh.
