Trevallyan
A relatively new recruit to Red Company. Long time neutral with a colourful past.
Trevallyan (not his real name, that has long since been forgotten), has lived all over Ashnoor, obviously not up north... He was run out of Kingdom lands for confidence trickery - where he amassed a modest nest egg. Hastily departed, leaving much of his nest egg behind, he was run out of Deersheart (almost a border town at the time) for marrying more than once. To be clear, whilst multiple marriages do occur in Ashnoor, it is widely frowned upon when they're at the same time. Of course, he fled to the wild lands and made his way as a highway man, hired gun and a dispatch rider variously for a few years. Eventually finding his way to the region of Moridale where he managed to beguile his way into the Duke's guard, whilst not much of a fighter - he is a notoriously good shot with his pistols - a matching set of duelling pistols which say much about this man's history.
He initially made a pretty good life for himself under the Duke of Moridale, however, he eventually tired of the Duke's unpredictability at times and even worse, his pettiness. Trevallyan is at his bests a snob. He is not from any kind of aristocratic background, despite his presentation as such. All afffectations. He has never been in the military, certainly has not had a commission, his rank of captain in Moridale's guard hardly counted, for anything. He'd had enough though and chose his moment wisely, it was a practiced art for him, to depart and disappear totally. Only to reappear once hired by Red Company.
Trevallyan may do good things, he is not by nature though, all that good. He is, in essence, a true mercenary.

Intellectual Characteristics
Cunning, shrewd and intelligent enough to have survived pretty well until now.
Personality Characteristics
Savvies & Ineptitudes
Trevallyan knows his way around guns, things that blow up, blowing things up and so forth.
He is, at best, an average swordsman and, generally, if he cannot cheat he will run. If he is, or was, ever heroic, it was purely by chance.

Presentation
Foppish is not an unreasonable description of how Trevallyan presents generally. On occassion the facade slips and he shows a hint of well contained malice
