Nothing major or earth shattering. Just making the bits stand out.

Scrivener though Edwin is at present a student at Grecotha University

Belief
Beginning to feel somewhat cheated because his family don't make much of being Deryni. Mixing with his social superiors at Grecotha has given Edwin a bit of a chip on his shoulder and a burning desire to escape Culdi and the family workshops. You have to fight for what you want.

Description
Edwin is 19 - medium height, thin, and fit, though with just a hint of what could turn into a beer belly if he doesn't watch out. Aged 19, he is brown haired and handsome enough when not suffering from his latest student binge. He is well though not flamboyantly dressed and when travelling carries a largish pack with a change of clothes, the means of keeping clean and pens, ink and parchment. The ability to write a letter for someone in a tavern has often come in handy. He also carries the standard adventurer's kit.

His family are scriveners in Culdi who have benefitted from Ducal patronage over the years and now run a successful workshop copying books which monastic scribes would deem unsuitable - tales of adventure or courtly love and the like. Edwin's father felt that it would benefit the family if his bright third son studied in an environment where he would mix more widely with the sons of landed gentlemen, and thus gain potential future contacts. He hadn't quite reckoned on how much alcohol and brawling was involved! Edwin is VERY good in a brawl, but he has also taken to wearing a dagger and some of his weapons trained noble friends have taught him to use it passably.

He has a Deryni heritage but family history has led to an ambivalence about all things Deryni meaning he has no training and heretofore no interest in being trained.

His mother's father was a secret Deryni who finally felt safe enough to tell his human wife the truth in 1130, unfortunately causing her to miscarry their first child. They were reconciled through their wonderful human priest who had trained for the priesthood with Duke/ Bishop Duncan and several healthy children came along, but Edwin's grandfather never quite forgave himself, and though being Deryni was not regarded as being evil, or to be hidden, neither was it something to be developed or encouraged.

Edwin's father's side are very provincial and despite sending his son to university for sound commercial reasons, are deeply suspicious of anything foreign i.e. outside Culdi or Cassan. The family have long been proud of their second sight but their honest view of things is that Deryni is just a fancy foreign name for the gifts the good Lord bestowed on good border folk. This narrow perspective was not helped when Edwin's great-grandfather was murdered by Wencit alongside Duke Jared of blessed memory leaving his grandfather to care for his younger siblings as well as his own wife and baby. It was Ducal patronage under Duncan and then Dhugal which saved the young man who earnt his living copying out letters from penury and then into prosperity. What said Dukes get up to out of Cassan is "nowt t' dee with the likes o' us".

Edwin has some Deryni powers - he has found truth reading very useful as he negotiates his new life as a student- but is untrained. He has just begun to realise that his family perspective may not be the most helpful one for him. His experiences of the outside world are turning him into something of a rebel against family wisdom and expectations.

Oh yeah, all three boys are little rebels! But my big question is whether or not Elspeth will enjoy herding around a bunch of children?

[Marc_du_Temple]

Three differently skilled children. If we put our small minds together, under adult supervision, even Rhemuth will tremble!

[Nezz]

Three boys, but four children: I'm including Laurna's Amy in the children category (at least, as far as Elspeth is concerned).

But yes, there will be much trembling in Rhemuth tonight!

We should all add that we each carry the Adventure's kit from Tiny Dungeon.

Elspeth may look at all three askance and wonder if it's better to take the veil or learn more about poisons. 

Though with two brothers herself, she is no stranger to shenanigans.

[Laurna]

I am going to add to Amy's sheet
"Amy also carries the Adventure kit with all the normal supplies. In addition she carries two other water-skins. One with ale for her own needs and one with a stronger alcohol content (Brandy Port) for medicinal purposes only of course."

[Nezz]

I was also thinking about the fact that we have three Deryni in the group: one doesn't know she's Deryni, one doesn't care that he's Deryni, and one actively doesn't want to be Deryni.

Bynw's gonna have a field day with this.
