Story
Born and raised in a city-state far away from these lands. Trying to avoid the dull and boring life of a common man, like his parents and brothers, he joined a mercenary guild, where he trained in the use of arms in general, but exceded with the crossbow. He was hired here and there within the city, but mostly for guarding duties. This taught him to be vigilant, but also made quite paranoid (low Wis FTW!).

Some time ago, they replaced the captain of the guard with the son of a local man of power. One day, while guarding on a watchtower, the new "captain" showed up for an inspection. It was raining, so Percenier had un-stringed his weapon, as every crossbowmen knows that water damages a pulled string. The young captain didn't knew a thing about weapon maintenace, but still said that Percenier was "not fullfilling his duties", and that he was "a step away from being a desertor". Even though he tried to explain the young noble about rain and strings, the captain said that he would be punished by whip. At that point, Percenier lost his mind (low wis again) and punched the overly-proud lad, knocking him unconscious (or worse). Without hesitation, he fled the city inmediatly, and travelled for weeks with only one goal in mind: get as far away from his homeland as he could. Now, broke and without any friends or relatives nearby, he's willing to take any job that coud earn him a meal, and if possible, a new start.

(His real name is not Percenier Veillantif ("Warrior-Piercer", "Little Vigilant"), he took this new name to avoid being found.)

A few minor updates Valandil;

XP bonus will be 0%.
HD will be 1d6+3 (1d6+1 for 1st level marksman, +2 for constitution)
hp will start at 8.
AC is 6/6 (front/rear). Leather is AC7, -1 front (dex), -1 rear (shield). Of course missiles suffer a further -2 versus shields.

Percenier (or "Percy" as he finds himself being called) hails from the Hundred States to the west of Ket and The Kingdom. In fact, Hoschke-Innum was the mercantile city-state where he was recently employed as part of the city militia.

Herrscher Nikalus Oscar was the young Captain of the Guard whom Percenier insulted -- an arrogant snot of a Man elevated to his position by family wealth rather than any genuine talent.

Percenier's boon is a masterfully crafted bejewelled dagger which (in a moment of foolishness) he stole from Oscar.

He has discovered naught but fleeting whispers on the wind. Of late, rumors of a Fair warrior have brought him to Ket...

The Arts
Memorized Spells: 2 (Level + Intelligence)
Known Spells: 3 (Wisdom)

The Proposterous Foment: 2d6 hit dice +1 hit dice per caster level worth of creatures with normal hearing must save versus a concussive blast of sound or be stunned for a full round. Even those that save are deafened for 1d6 rounds. Creature with especially sharp ears save at -4, and ordinary animals may be panicked at the referee's discretion. Torches are 2 in 6 likely to be extinguished, candles 4 in 6. The spell is indiscriminate, affecting friend and foe alike.

The Genuflect Yaw: 2d6 hp +1 hp per caster level worth of timber equipment is comprehensively warped and ruined by a mere gesture. If the caster can touch the object to be so careened he instead rolls 4d6. A stout wooden door has 12 hp, or 20 hp if reinforced with iron bindings. Shields, spears, crossbows and the like have 2 hp. Arrows have but 1 hp each. Missiles affected in flight (due to simultaneous initiative) suffer a -4 attack penalty.

The Eerie Lambent: This spell creates a host of 1d6 + caster level animated, levitating candle flames. The Eerie Lambent moves as a whole where magic-user desires, darting back and forth at pace, turning corners and navigating openings. It may attract attention, frighten animals, illuminate a passage, and so on, but winks out of existence if ever it strays further than 100ft from the caster or when the caster rests or is hit.
