Sir Dalabrac,
As per your request, I, Grey Jenkins, am submitting my formal application to join the seekers to serve and protect the citizens of Sanctuary. Since my somewhat fortuitous arrival here in Sanctuary not long ago, I’ve been made aware of some of the politics and goings on of this city. I believe no other organization besides the Seekers is best positioned to keep this haven safe and hidden from the dangerous threats of nearby societies and potentially lead us to our salvation.
I am not sure if you know of such a place as I am from, but in Silverymoon, I was a student of the arcane in Miresk’s School of Thaumaturgy. Yet to my parent’s chagrin, I spent a great deal of my free time on scouting missions tracking the nearby orc tribes with my childhood friends, who were now Knights in Silver, the protectors of my home. This, in fact, is how I have arrived here but that is another story. Though I am young, I believe this experience will serve me well as I strive to assist the efforts of the seekers in keeping track of the dangers that we face in this realm.
Furthermore, as I have mentioned, I’ve been a student of the arcane for some time. Though my skills are not what they were before after the recent mishap that brought me here, I hope to bring my arcane knowledge, particularly in the field of illusion, to enhance the work of the Seekers in any way possible. I am also researching magic to enhance vision, which I believe will be of great use to the seekers.
Additionally, I have not only been trained in the arcane, I have a certain knowledge of magical items that would perhaps also be of use to your organization. From my limited understanding, the Spellguard of this city is viewed with a certain level of skepticism. Whether or not this is warranted, I would offer to you my talents and knowledge of the arcane so that there is less need for your organization to be overly dependent upon others.
As you, sir Dalabrac, have mentioned, another task of your organization is to see to the freeing of slaves, something that I must admit I lack much experience in. Nonetheless, I cannot imagine a cause more worthy to devote one’s life and work to. Thus, I offer you my assistance in any such undertakings where those bound in slavery are given their deserved freedom that any sentient being rightfully deserves.
Lastly, as I’ve mentioned before, I am new to this place, a place darker than any I’ve seen before. I will of course, offer my service to the betterment of this community, my new home. I must also admit a personal reason for joining the seekers. My greatest hope is to one day find a path home back to the surface and my family who must assume I’m dead. This path could be all of our salvation. I offer you my arcane talents in finding this path and keeping Sanctuary safe from and informed of the actions of our less than friendly neighbors.
If I can ever assist you in any way, find me at the Rock Bottom Tavern where I presently reside.
My humblest regards – Grey Jenkins
