Revision as of 15:25, 8 April 2007
Urwin Rippentropp is a Human Empath, most notable for his role as an ambassador in the service of Baron Gyfford. He is a native citizen of Therengia, having been raised in Riverhaven. He spent most of his early career as an Empath in Riverhaven, healing indiscriminately at "the crate" and acting as an accessory to many of the pranks, gags, and crimes against the state conducted by several characters whose players posted frequently at the Smelly Cat forums. Through the Outcast War, he served unofficially as a young healer in Riverhaven.
He is characterized by a raucous and often tasteless sense of humor, an inordinate love of cheap beer, and a predisposition to trip over his own sentences, which are typically little more than strings of the longest and most impressive-sounding words he thinks he can fit together.
He is atypical among guilded adventurers in Elanthia because he vocally shuns physical exertion. His forays into combat and survival training are extremely few, far between, and brief. He has become rather pudgy as a result of this and his Halfling-like dietary habits, which his wife Azarii gleefully indulges.
He professes a great amount of nationalistic zeal for Therengia, and has written a handful of pamphlets arguing against the presently existing system of provinces in favor of a reborn pan-Kermorian state in the mold of the Seven Star Empire (with the Theren family reassuming the imperial throne, of course). He has failed to get them published. His love of Therengia carries with it a certain disdain for most other realms. He especially detests Ilithi and most, if not all, of the islands of Qi'Reshalia. He once held a vocal disdain for Elves and Elotheons, but in recent years has not been forthcoming with what once were his usual snide remarks (or outright tirades) besmirching their cultures. This is likely due to some combination of his marriage to an Elf and the increasing visibility of his role as a diplomat.
He is presently the ambassador to Prince Vorclaf's court, at Ulf'hara keep near the city of The Crossing in Zoluren.
