Wolf is a tall, strong man with long black hair and menacing brown eyes, he dresses in dark clorthing and always wears a black cloak. He has a large scar spanning the left side of his face, a wound inflicted by his formed guildmaster while he tried to kill him (see below), he lost his left eye from that same wound, and he usually covers it with a piece of black cloth.

One of the three people that know the true leader behind the Claw, Wolf poses as its guildmaster. He used to be the right hand man of the old dominant guild in the city before Pierre came. When Pierre began forming the Claw, he asked the old guildmaster to join the fold, and he refused. Wolf heard the entire conversation and offered to join Pierre and betray his boss in exchange for money. A few days after that, the old guildmaster was murdered and Wolf became the new guildmaster, and handed his newly acquired guild over to the newly formed Claw.

The only reason Wolf poses as the guildmaster of the Claw is because he is a weakling, he lacks both the brains and determination to successfully guide a guild, and as such, he poses no danger to Pierre's position.

Wolf's personal way to keep control over the guild is terror, he is sadistic and cruel and wants every single member to fear him.

Magic items: Cloak of the bat, a short sword +3 (usually poisoned, type E), a dagger +2, ring of flying (type C), bracers of defense AC 4.

Dominic is a tall, broad man in his late thirties, his face denoting one too many battle scars, his gesture is always cold and menacing, hardly ever saying a word except to acknowledge Pierre's orders. His tough looks and demeanor are in sharp contrast with he usually wears, or is told to wear, since he is Pierre's personal bodyguard, he usually dresses in elegant clothing that look like they are ready to explode because of Dominic's large body.

He carries a big two handed sword at all times, which he specializaes in.

Dominic was a prisoner of the guild Pierre back in his country of origin, that other guild had killed his family and friends and were torturing him before Pierre handed them over to the law (Dominic used to be one of their mercenaries, but he owed them a large amount of money). The specific hiding place where Dominic was kept was stormed by Pierre's hired killers, and Pierre himself was with them.

Pierre had heard of this Dominic, he was a famous mercenary, and so he was allowed to live in exchange that he would work for Pierre, which he has done to this day.

Dominic is extremely loyal to Pierre, he would never betray him to anyone.

Magic items: Two Handed Sword of Wounding +3, Full plate mail +3

 

 

 The Lion

(Fang and Paw)

One of the Claw's best assasin(s)

The Lion is probably one of the most feared assasins in the whole land, he has claimed dozens of victims, including many important nobles, politicians, military officers and many others. His victims are always recognized because he always leaves a lock of lion hair somewhere near the lifeless body of his victims. Everyone believes that the lion is one man, but the truth is, the assasin known as the lion is two people, a man and a woman, Fand and Paw. The Fang is a violent, physichal kind of guy, while the Paw is more subtle, prefering to use quieter methods.

Fang is 1.80 mt. tall, with fierce blue eyes and short brown hair, he usually wears a black plate mail and a dark shield decorated with silver linings, and a black cape. He carries a beautiful bastard sword, which he uses one handed.

He is a field operative, he takes care of jobs that require sheer brute strength, usually commanding a group of 15 or so fighters (levels 3-5, using splint mail, any sword and bow), if the adventurers mess with the Claw for some time, they can be sure Fang will be sent to deal with them. He also takes care of persons who need a little... persuasion.

He excels at setting traps and preparing ambushes.

She is a somewhat short but slender young woman in her late twenties, her flowing long hair and sparkling green eyes give her a nearly angelical look, the clothes she usually wears only accentuate her beauty.

The woman known as Paw has had many other names, her current alias is Catalina, the countess of a rich province, Her modus operandi is simple, she makes powerful men fall in love with her, then either kills them or marries them to obtain a potentially useful position or title.

She is an expert on the use and creation of poisons and toxins, and these are her tools to kill her targets.

A healthy man in his late thirties, Jacques is fairly tall, his long brown hair is usually kept tied into a pony tail, he has brown eyes and he usually wears garish and extravagant clothing.

Jacques is Lantier's wizard for the oldest reason in the world, money. Pierre finances his research and all he has to do is give some magic insight and produce something useful for the guild from time to time, so you could say he is quite happy working for Lantier.

He is not usually seen with his boss, because his laboratory is located on a nearby forest, and Jacques doesn't go out much, and when he does, he never goes to the city, prefering small villages where he can easily scare the villagers and do whatever he pleases.

 

Memorized spells: Audible Glamer, Fire Burst, Magic Missile, Cantrip, Ventriloquism, Flaming Sphere, Hornung's Baneful Deflector, Know Alignment, Levitate, Dispel Magic, Fireball, Haste, Slow, Ice Storm, Shout, Thunder Staff.

Magic items: Wand of fireballs (20 charges), Staff of thunder and Lightning, Bracers of defense AC 4.
