Appearance:

Icarus is a small halfling, barely reaching three feet tall, with bright blue eyes and a large, happy smile. His hair is a mess of curls, kept in check by a large top hat. He wears colorful clothing, often adorned with feathers and sequins.

Interaction:

Icarus is a street performer, using his acrobatic skills to entertain and scam the unknowing audience. He loves to perform and will often try to rope in passersby to join his act. However, behind his joyous exterior, Icarus is secretly planning a big heist on the town's local nobleman. If the party uncovers his true intentions, he will try to bribe them into keeping his secret and help him with the heist.

Background:

Icarus comes from a long line of thieves, but he was always more interested in entertaining than stealing. However, his parents forced him to learn the family trade and he became quite skilled in the art of thievery. But as he grew older, he found that he could use his acrobatic skills to not only entertain, but also to steal. He has been living a double life ever since, constantly trying to balance his passion for performance with his need for wealth.

Combat / Skills:

Icarus is not a skilled fighter, but he is quick and agile. He will try to evade attacks and use his acrobatic skills to move around the battlefield. If cornered, he will attempt to charm his way out or use his agility to escape. He is also skilled in deception, and may use his performance skills to distract the party while he makes his escape.

Equipment:

Icarus carries a short sword and a shortbow, but he is not particularly skilled in using either. He also has a set of lockpicks and a small pouch of gold coins. However, he always carries his top hat, which he uses to hide his stolen goods.
