• History and Personality: Seeking the thrill of the chase (and the spoils of victory, of course), Badni "Bad News" Azenhart grew up in the streets and shadows of the world, after escaping from being sold into "civilized" slavery. Taken on as an apprentice thief, Badni survived his first year's tests, which really consisted of surviving being the distraction for the guards. He earned his moniker "Bad News" for his habit of leaving apologetic notes in the houses or pockets of people he robs, always beginning with the phrase "I've got some bad news." He believes that stealing is no evil, so long as the person stolen from can afford it, and deeply enjoys both the thrill of a perfect, silent robbery and the excitement of running, lungs heaving and muscles straining, from an alert guardsman or merchant hounds. While killing animals is of no concern to him, he hesitates to take the life of another without cause, and so he carries a blackjack (represented as club) with which he tries to knock out anyone he cannot sneak by. If necessary, however, he will shed however much blood he must to escape from a bungled job or a bad situation, and in the territory of Silverspire he is persona non grata for this reason.

Badni loves both gold and the things it can buy, and is not stingy about keeping himself and his gear in good repair. His black-dyed leather armor has seen his disappearance into a convenient shadow more than once, and he is fine with abandoning a job that's going poorly... for a while, at least. Because he has managed to live to almost 30 in a profession that kills most of its practitioners, he tends to take an "old man" viewpoint of things, encouraging long-term thinking and discouraging rashness unless there's gold to be had. One can tell when they're considered a friend, or at least "safe", by Badni when they're referred to as "kid".

• Description: Tall and lithe, Badni is skinny yet hale, with lean musculature showing over the occasional rib, and slight, small hands and feet that look as though they belong on a man half his size. One of his eyes is slightly off-colored, but still close enough that only a close inspection would reveal this. His teeth are alabaster white, and on the rare occasion that he does smile the contrast with his skin and dark armor creates a Cheshire Cat effect to those looking on him from a distance or in dim light.
