Every week I post something up on the Utherwald blog, either news or stats for an NPC or creature, etc.
Decided here I'll do a separate thread for each blog post, typically containing a brief blurb and a libk to the post in question for peeps to comment on, etc here.
Heres goes;
Rogue's Gallery: Boris MacKay
Kicking off a new series to provide NPCs for games of Frozen Skies with a look at one of Alyeska's well known aviators.

Ooh, I like!
I wonder if some of these rogues are of the sort who might have stories and songs written about them... (folk music and spoken storytelling are particular interests of mine and I usually end up applying them to every setting I get sufficiently interested in somehow or other).
Also, good plan, a thread per blogpost sounds a workable strategy :)
-
That'll be Ryland Flinch, he gets a mention in the Setting Primer.
-
I really need to read the stuff you've got out already, I keep thinking of questions but then realising you've probably answered them in all the stuff I've not got or read!
-
Ryland Flinch is based loosely off a real life guy, both managed to avoid capture by law enforcement (for the Real Life case it was the Mounties) for quite some time.
I forgot how long the real life lasted for but Ryland Flinch has spent at least two years on the run in a man eating giant wolf infested, icy wasteland.
You can imagine what the newspapers alone are like about it.
-
What do the giant wolves regularly eat in the icy wasteland? Presumably they can't solely support themselves on human flesh...
-
Theres the Bodarks (http://www.utherwaldpress.com/2015/05/creature-feature-bodarks.html) for starters...
Of course there is going to be mundane animals much like our own world such as deer, bears, etc.
Feedback I've gotten from people has been for the Wulvers to be bipedal 'not-Werewolves', also had the suggestion that perhaps they could climb trees, this could broaden their food source.
-
They sound a bit like hammelhorns, if you're familiar with the Edge Chronicles? :)
And yeah, that sounds an interesting idea.
