Ascorbic and Ox

Ascorbic and Ox, whose real given name is Boxlifter, are always found traveling together. Unclear on their world of origins these two seem to be able to travel from realm to realm at will.

Ascorbic is nearly always found in a tavern running card games and dice games. Strictly legal, cleared with the house, Ascorbic has a calm dry with and no patience with cheats. He has some magical abilities and may at one time have been a wizard. He knows many details about the people in whatever tavern he is found in. He seems to know a lot about everything, and to have been almost everywhere.

Boxlifter is a quiet, gentle soul. Kind to a fault, a soft touch to kids seeking a penny, and stray dogs and cats.
