Hello I am Samar Kandotrolin, a being of some significance, and a politican running for Council.
I guess I need some explaination about myself, want a history of Samar? Who am I? I am Samar Kylthee Kandotrolin, a mercenary but a human as well. Well I don't suppose human is the right word, you see it goes back a while.
My great-great-grandmother was a Drow and her husband was a Moon Elf. Yeah, I am human, just read on. My grandmother was shunned by her sisters when she bore my great-grandfather, who was half moon elf and half-drow. A drow Matriarch, her own mother, laid a curse on her, stating that one day one of her decedants would find her way back to his ansestors the Armas, is what they called him, would return to the drow. Her son, who was raised with his father, was named Kyrodox Kandotrolin. The name Kandotrolin is a combination of his two parnets' surname Kando, meaning under, and Trolin meaning of Troil. It quite litterally translates as Of Under Troil.
Kyrodox married a human female, and they had a girl. And so on my family has been comprised of humans marrying in except for where it started. I might add that Kyrodox was killed by a mercenary who thought him to be a Drow spy. Which obviously he wasn't. I was raised in the thick of the city of Arabel, my family was mildly rich, for the middle class. Yeah I had an interest in politics, get off my back, I know what people want. Even though they often mock me by calling me a Megalomanical Elfkin, too big a words for me, I don't even know what they mean!
I like to think of myself as a stealth master, but an optimistic one, I only fight if I feel something is wrong. Hence my interest in politics, so I can get my point across to the goverment. Not everybody likes me, many people take me for a madman. But I know where my place is and if they voted for me I could have gotten to it. I mostly spent my time in Arabel getting some ales and hanging out with my freinds, as I finished up Law school. I found myself with a lady once or twice, didn't care much, always fun to get well aquantited with the ladies. They make good allies, as they always spread stories around.
I remeber it was a week before the night that would change my life. In a month I would have recived my right to become a Lawyer and aid in politics. I got into a bar fight with a drunk dwarf who thought I was stealing away a lovely elf from him. When in actual fact she was interested in me, me and her were going out for sometime. Alas I remeber waking up the next day with a pain in my gut, a chipped tooth, and a cut in my tongue. Luckily I was released for acting in self-defense, that's one thing I actually didn't like about Arabel, its quick leaps to trial.
Me and the Elf decided we were going to get married two days later, after I graduated, we would tour the countryside but return to continue with our lives. Sadly, on a lone Saturday night, I was walking home from the Library, I smelt something. I also saw what appeared to be a robe on the street corner, a noble robe at that. Peering over I noticed something it was a human, a male, a bit older than me. His stomach had is intestines hanging out while flies buzzed around him, taking a small drink of his bodily fluids.
I drew my dagger, which I kept for safety, to defend myself in case the killer was nearby. As the corpse was still fresh. An odd twist of fate suddenly came my way, one that would change my life. High Judge Lyla Lanternblade was taking a stroll on the same street. Horrified she immedietally arrested me for murder, she also said that there were three other bodies. She asked me why I had to kill them, asking me why I seemed like such a nice guy. I explained to her that I had drew the dagger in defense and that I was on my way to report the crime.
She thought otherwise, he claimed I had cleaned the dagger and had been coming around the corner to kill another. She explained that the man was a lesser noble, a crime punishable by death. I explained my actions as a guard entered. He claimed that the barfight was started by me and added it to my total. I was given an unfair trial where Lyla was the judge and a witness against me, I was sentanced to death for a crime I hadn't commited.
I protested however, she listened and decided to have me exiled. I was blinded folded and after a two week journey I was released away from my home city. It was a gloomy forest, I remeber wandering through it for several days. Becoming very good at sneaking around silently and unnoticed while still noticing traps. I managed to survive on one deer for half a week. Then I found the cave, it was filled with some water, dripping and drizziling here and there. I wandered around before finding a massive casem that all the water followed into. I heard the water hit nothing at the bottom.
I walked away, I started a fire and fried up a few cave fish. But I heard growling, although I've heard some claims of wacky creatures this one goes on the list for just flat out odd. It came in all furry and everything, but it was a were-wolf, but it was the size of an ogre! It smelt like one two! We fought visciously for several minutes before we reached the casem. He managed to shove me in as the ashes from the fire spilt all over my body, as he knocked them in after me.
I'm not sure how long I fell, all I knew is that ash was burning my skin. Bats swarmed around me, but I was falling to fast. I lost sight of light as I decended, farther and farther, before at least an half and hour later I struck the dark river. I grabbed on to a passing log and held on for dear life. A couple days later, I had eaten nothing but chewed on the bark of the wood, and the occasional fish I could grab. I was pulled ashore by a group of Illithids. They were neogiating a trade with a group of drow, which oddly I find pretty. My dad says its the family curse to be attracted to drow, but I've always thought elves of all subraces were pretty.
In a fortnight I managed to escape before my mind could be whipped. Lucky for me I found Sanctuary in Sanctuary. I knew my coming here was no councicidence....So I decided to continue with my dreams that had been squelched in Arabel. I am running for council to express my ideas, I am hopeful. But I learnt something after writing down for a while the Armas, I am Samar K. Kandotrolin...My freinds call me Viper and just my luck just read:
Armas Sarma Saram Samar
I am the Armas, it is my duty to the family to neogiate with the drow and seek my UnderDark breathern. But I must help the people of Sanctuary and to do so I am running for council...
