Mental characteristics
Personal history
Corrin Highhill was born to the world as many halflings are. He lives his life as a persecuted person travelling between the Free Cities and the Riverlands. His father was a trader selling and plying wares while his mother and older sister performed as folk dancers for street coin. As he grew older, he grew curious about the burning empire of the north where men of stone lived.
So, at 18 with little more than a riding donkey, a goods cart, and a bag of sovereigns, he journeyed north. That was over 30 years ago, and he has never looked back. He has seen much, made and lost fortunes, and has gone from one end of the world to the other. But he remains free and happy. His latest opportunity has taken him to the sleepy village of Lothering.

Though he has no formal education, Corrin has learned much through his travels. He speaks multiple languages and understands many nuances between nations and regions. He has a unique ability to see just what a person wants.

Relationships
History
When Highhill first appeared in Lothering, he appealed to the Baron to allow him to build the lumber mill outside of town. Kent refused on the grounds that the area was too far from the village and was a considerable risk. To Highhills credit, he has been genuine in his interest to help the people, but it isn't incorrect that Corin intends to leave town once the job is done.

Both wish to see Lothering prosper. Though, Kent believes that Highhill intends to exploit his people with scheme and run off with the initial investment.
