Born in the small, friendly Halfling village of Brandybrook. Constantly restless, Tolly never quite fit in with her laid back companions and siblings. She would spend hours in the woods outside her home, fashioning little instruments from wood and stone. After a few years of her collecting these little trinkets her parents finally found her an apprenticeship with a craftsman in town who specialized in instruments. She became very good at it, and even better at playing. Having a natural ear for music, she barely knew how to read it on paper, but could tune and play a fiddle with ease. But Tolly had grown bored in her little town. After several years of learning, the young lass left her home to become a traveling bard. She sticks to cities, often being found in bars or inns, sawing on a fiddle or singing a balled to the sound of her lute, or smoking a pipe while watching the other patrons. Traits Curious, good natured, and generally friendly. Isn't prejudiced towards most, but doesn't really care for the High Elves strict nature and avoids their city. Particularly fond of humans, however. Loves a good laugh and a drink with friends, can drink you under the table. Sounds very Welsh. Is down to date or marry pretty much any race, except orcs who terrify her. Is bisexual (like her skygod). Isn't religious, although she did follow the Potato Lord in her youth, and had heard many tales of Knox, The Pumpkin Lord from her parents and the village elders Light on her feet, a good dancer, and occasional burglar (only if she has to).

Born during a cold winter, her family thought the tiny baby girl would be a sickly child like her older brother. They were dead wrong. Cluney spent her formative years tumbling around the hills in and around the Citadel in which she was born. Prone to fighting, the young elf had her fair share of broken bones. Due to her firey disposition, she was quickly snatched up by the local military. Her brother was almost constantly bedridden, and unable to join her. She left the military after 40 years and set off to travel, often writing home and sending gifts. Young and inexperienced. She is generally hot headed and impatient. Surprisingly gentle/loving towards those she likes, loyal a fault. She dislikes being in romantic relationships, having been scorned before. Very fond of cats, large dogs, and rodents. Extremely loyal to her country, although she dislikes how strict the military is. She was taken into the military at around 60, but left a little over 40 years later to venture out on her own.
