Thresh

Hello, all. Apologies for keeping you waiting. Had to do a little doubling back in the streets. The Inquisitors are a little too active tonight.

Overview

Thresh is a tiefling courier in the Resistance — mid-level, dependable, deliberately unremarkable. He moves people, information, and the occasional small package between cantons of the outer ring. He arranged the Wickward → Heron escort that became Session 01.

Appearance

A man who has done his best to look less like himself. His horns have been filed flush with his skull — a practical decision, as he tells anyone who asks, to reduce harassment. From across a room in a low light, he can almost pass for human. From close, he cannot, but he has spent his life being seen at a distance and is rather good at managing it.

He keeps his coat on. He keeps his hood up. He gives handshakes — sometimes the kind with the Resistance blood-mark, sometimes not, depending on who is watching.

Personality

Soft-spoken. Practical. Short on specifics. Tells you what you need to know in the order you need to know it, and not before. He is patient with people he is moving, and impatient with people who waste time. He does not joke. He smiles politely when others joke.

He does not introduce himself by name on first meeting. People who need to know his name learn it from someone else.

Role in Session 01

• Arrived late at the soap maker's shop above Edra's in Wickward.
• Introduced Maret and her daughter Sable to the party.
• Outlined the job: escort the two to Orvin's safehouse in Heron.
• Departed after the briefing. Was not seen again in Session 01.

Relationships

• The Resistance — Active courier. One of the network's reliable middle layer.
• Edra — Familiar enough with her shop to use it as a meeting site without prior arrangement.
• Maret — Brought her to the party. Knew enough about her circumstances to make the right introduction.
• Vivienne Ashworth — Knows her well enough to recognize the Ashworth brooch and play the introduction respectfully.

Status

As of session end: presumably back in Wickward. The party has not heard from him since.
