Role

Chapter 3

Given his desire to become an excellent (seafood) cook, it would only make
sense he'd seek the Heralds, a place that is open to all forms of art. And
he also understands the value of knowledge and wisdom gained and stored at
the Lyceum. It is important to keep it safe from those who would try to steal
or destroy any wisdom there.

So he has joined the Heralds. The last decade has been spent growing his
understanding of his magic, to better able to gather those ingredients and
making friends in various adventures and endeavors. He is ambivalent to what
those adventures would be and is willing to help both those of the light and
the dark, the chaotic and the orderly. The true hope is that by doing this,
he can keep a good impression of the Inn and limit the problems caused by
unruly and unscrupulous adventurers. It is also often a good way to broaden
his knowledge base.

This friendliness can be pushed, and those who attack him(or other Heralds)
repeatedly or cause issues for the Inn may get a different treatment.
BattleRagers in particular have been a source of much commotion in the Inn.
Their innate rage(it's in the name!) is perhaps too much for them to hold
it in to keep the peace. Of course, Damil knows how he is now is unlikely to
be effective against mighty warriors - and so there is a goal to figure out
how to thin the Veil, and keep said Veil thin.

In truth, Damil cares primarily about himself, his cooking, the Inn and the
sea critters. Most everything else is to ensure the long term progress or
protection of the above. A well loved Inn will keep the Lyceum safe. A well
tended veil will keep him safe. A willingness to consort with all sorts of
people will increase his knowledge base and so on. Perhaps there is wisdom in
accepting all kinds of folks and understanding that everyone needs each other
on some level.
