Spencer University was built fifty years ago and has enjoyed a generous and steady amount of funding ever since. The town obviously never made any sort of money before the school came, however, and it certainly doesn't seem to make so much that it can continue funding it that well. Where is this money coming from? | Spencer University was built fifty years ago and has enjoyed a generous and steady amount of funding ever since.

The students and visitors call him Mayor Reuben, but long-time residents tend to call him Junior. Thomas Reuben II succeeded the position of mayor (a position that appears to go un-contested each city election) from his father, Thomas Reuben I, ten years ago and is serving his third term. Rail thin and a bit on the short side, Mayor Reuben is a sorry sight on the few occasions he stands next to Dean Merriwick. Like the dean, the mayor is fairly popular with the people of the city, but primarily among residents that have known him and his family for years. Indeed, the Reuben family is apparently one of the few that can claim residency in Pine Falls since the town first came to be. Most people that meet him witness a fairly kindly old man that lets his assistants and the more capable Dean guide the town's growth. Most people who know him, however, say that one must never forget their manners around him as he can become rather irate if he believes someone is rude. | The students and visitors call him Mayor Reuben, but long-time residents tend to call him Junior.

As the leader of the biggest court in Pine Falls, King -- as he is called -- holds no small amount of influence in the changeling community. A Mirrorskin Darkling, King is not only proficient in the art of disguise, but apparently quite adept at bureaucratic deception as well. He has been instrumental in providing many of the newcomers with the means for starting over in Pine Falls -- making sure that they have enough money to get by and the right forged documents to satisfy the authorities. All he asks is that no one gives the people of Pine Falls any reason to dig any deeper into their business -- a request that has become more or less an unspoken law among the freehold. King is known to be a reasonably accommodating fellow, though he is a very private person and notoriously evasive in most matters not concerning the freehold's welfare. The rumors say that he has some connection to the old freehold, but he has successfully dodged any inquiries regarding said rumor. | As the leader of the biggest court in Pine Falls, King -- as he is called -- holds no small amount of influence in the changeling community.

Few know anything about the Lost who choose not to associate with the freehold save that they are all presumed to be insane. Miss Peach is one of the very few who are actually known to the freehold in any sense and she certainly doesn't disprove that presumption in anyway. Out towards the edges of the town, she resides in a cozy little cottage far enough away from any neighbors that no one asks questions, though the children in the nearby neighborhoods tell stories that the witch who lives in the creepy house in the woods eats the souls of anyone who trespasses after dark. The local Lost seem to think that there is some truth to this tale, though perhaps not as horrible as rumored. For all her creepiness, there would be no reason to ever approach Miss Peach but for the fact that she is an oracle of rather exceptional insight. | Few know anything about the Lost who choose not to associate with the freehold save that they are all presumed to be insane.

| − | Most things that live in the hedge are both mysterious and dangerous -- the hobgoblin that the Lost call Poacher is no exception. A massive hulk of a being, Poacher is typically found wandering slowly through trails in the hedge that only it seems to understand. It is relatively simple to keep out of its way and it does not seem to possess much in the way of hearing, so it isn't terribly difficult to sneak around it either. Once something is caught in its gaze, however, it pursues its quarry relentlessly. Due to its generally slow movement, it rarely catches up to whoever it is chasing, but the scary thing is that it knows its way around the hedge so well that it always manages to get ahead of its prey | + | Most things that live in the hedge are both mysterious and dangerous -- the hobgoblin that the Lost call Poacher is no exception.

No one knows what it does with whatever it catches, but it probably isn't anything nice. It moves rather silently for its size, but occasionally bellows like the groaning hull of an ancient ship. Supposedly, the changelings of the old freehold managed to figure out some trick to making Poacher stop following you, but that secret may have been lost with them. |
