Appearance:

Roddy is a short, pudgy man with a balding head and black eyebrows. He wears a blue cotton shirt and pants along with a white apron.

Interaction:

Roddy is a gruff man, always suggesting that the player get out of his bar. He has a negative opinion of the city guard, but doesn't have many kind words for others either. If he feels threatened by the player, he will launch into a tirade demanding that they leave his bar, or he will call the city guard to have them ejected. He has no special knowledge of the city unless the players are looking for information on a specific person.

Background:

Roddy lost his wife and children to an illness that spread throughout the city about two years ago. He's still sad about their deaths, and blames the city for not being able to keep the disease at bay. He doesn't care much for the local politics and rarely leaves his bar. Players can persuade him to share a little of his life, but he will still keep the information to a minimum.

Combat / Skills:

Roddy is a good fighter, and can hold his own in most situations. He is also a good healer, and will restore three hit points every time he heals someone. He is also immune to fire damage.
