Lop was abandoned by his family at the age of 4.  Left in a gutter, he survived by eating rats and scrounging in trash.   
  
In time he learned how to cook and began cooking for a group of other street urchins.  They brought him scraps and he made them into meals.  He mended clothes, cleaned discarded blankets and helped younger orphans survive. He spent a decade in the gutters nd back alleys of Wall helping others survive, mostly out of self defense since the people he cooked and cleaned for came to protect him.  he was in and out of orphanages as well.

At 14, when his orphanage was destroyed in the western region of Tosa during the ravages of the Orcish Open Hand Clan, he became a refuge.  While doing odd jobs in a tavern a group of adventurers hired him to tend their animals on an excursion into the Dungeons of Eldomar.  This vast subterranean construct was the remnants of the ancient Kingdom of Eldomar.

In time Lop became a regular member of the adventuring company. He tended horses, set up tents, cooked all the meals, cleaned all the crockery and maintained the food, healing and other supplies. He cooked food but did not butcher or kill animals. He was an expert hunter of vegetables, herbs and fruits. He repaired armor and clothes.  He received a full share of treasure for his efforts during adventures and between them.

In between adventures he built the first [[Palace Commons]], a tavern of great size. He also spared with the others and was a frequent participant in mock melees and tournaments of a sporting nature or combat. He was an excellent boxer and a experienced martial artist in several monastic styles.

Originally rolled in white box D&D (OD&D), Lop was a no-bonus fighter with a 15 charisma and a 14 intellegence for high stats.  He ran as the company servent, cook, stablehand, tent raiser, cleaner, armor repairman, cloth mender and combat medic.  In RP situations where negotiation or haggling went on he was often the one talking. But i ran him as unwilling to take senient life.  If a situation was nonlethal such as boxing matches or tournements he could do well.

He reached 14th lvl before circumstances forced him to kill a hobgoblin.  After that folks would let me run him anymore. I blame the hack&slashers who did little RP.  But they let him run the tavern everyone hung out in and they bought all thier supplies from him.  Fun games.
