Other Stuff of Note

The useful

  • He has the trapped souls of 4 artisans accompanying him. Logan may direct any mind magics or similar mental effects onto the four spirits. (They once ridiculed and tormented Logans father, and can hear and understand Logan but cannot speak)

Not so useful

Some (not talked about) background: Logan was brought up isolated from "real life" by his protective father. He believed his father a successful and respected merchant, and the world a wondrous place full of nice people. Logan had a rude awakening to the real world after his father was killed (accidentally) in a botched mugging, only then finding out that Logan and his father were the ridicule of the town, with his father regularly being tormented by those ultimately responsible for his death, and a failure in his profession. Logan is no longer quite so naive, but still believes people are basically good and "should just be nice to each other". However he has an deep-seated hate of bullies and ridicule, and his normally hidden need for retribution may come out when faced with such people or behaviour. This is the seed for a number of his "customisations".
