William Kingsmouth, Sanctuary's Entrepreneur

[Pool]

William was fun to play, though nothing lasts forever. Unless it's made from steel. You should've bought some of his steel. That would've lasted forever, maybe.

Oh, and since he's dead, most items with the 'W.K' hallmark might now be a valuable collector's item. You should buy them for expensive amounts. Even his books. Buy all of his books.

Name: William Kingsmouth|Age: 32|Deity: Ilmater|Alignment: Lawful Neutral|

Born to a coupling of a Orcan Warrior and a female Barbarian, William was a Half-Orc of Icewind Dale. Found as a baby by a group of Adventurers in a cave while his family wasn't present, William was saved and carried back to a village, where he was put into an orphanage.

He was adopted at an early age by an Ilmateri Priest named Rasmus Kingsmouth and was brought across to Neverwinter, where the Priest attempted to raise William in relatively safer location, or so he believed. Near the boarder to Luskan, they lived in a village named Shiverpeak stop. As was typical of most uneducated civilizations, the populace viewed William as a bizarre creature, and parents warned children away from him.

He spent his childhood in solitude, and the only thing that brought him comfort was his fathers' stories. Stories of heroism, of places lost and forgotten, stories of where people placed themselves against unthinkable odds for the sake of others, and saved by divine intervention.

As he grew, the first thing he tried to do was paint, but to no success. He then tried to become a Doctor, following in the footsteps of his father. This also failed, because he wasn't smart enough to understand how to apply various medicines. After this was carpentry, astronomy and other trades, though like the trades before him, they all failed. To pay for food and housing, he submitted himself to menial labor to those who would take his kind.

Eventually, William realized that he couldn't stay with his father forever, and wandered off into the world on his own, carrying nothing more than clean clothes, a hatchet, dried food and water to hold him over. It wasn't long until he bumped into the Grey Scale Monster Hunting Company. He had strength, but wasn't proper taught on how to fight. They took him in and trained him, in exchange for his service.

This career of monster hunting was profitable in comparison to the alternatives, so William stuck with it, even learning how to repair and forge equipment to ease the costs of the company. Eventually the apocalypse came, where his outfit was broken over the knee of the Illithid invasion. He lived his darks out in solitude once more, eating chopped leaves and bug soup in a dark cave.

It was a fateful night that he discovered the Spellguard portal, spotting a bright blue light on top of a hill above his cave. With nothing to lose, he went through it, finding himself among the illusion of a civilization that yet lived. Once acquiring his ring, he went on to do many things. It was there he made friends and enemies alike, making something better out of his life than he could've ever hoped for.

The early days.

The shenanigans that came past after he lost his arm. He eventually went on to be a Bodyguard to a Director, though he saw his boss as a close friend, rather than an employer. He risked hell and high water to ensure her safety, which landed him in hot water occasionally.

Some things he acquired in his travels. The boots were a gift, though the Tigereye Vanguard was his greatest achievement as a smith. May it serve its next wearer well!

So long.

[The Samophlange]

Will was a real gem. He will be sorely missed.

[MaimedGod]

:(

[FromTheRooftop]

My character still owes him money. :(

[Moonlighter]

William was a cool character to interact with on a bunch of my own, and I commend you for sticking it out even after being down an arm. Great stuff, dude.

[Charnelist]

Wow.
Just wow.
*Stunned applause*

[WriterX]

I shall miss William. He was a great smith, somebody to chat to about weapons and armor. I am sad to see him go, especially since there is nobody to take his place as master smithy of Sanctuary now :(

[Arc]

Really sad to see Will go- one of the most intricate and interesting characters on the server.

RIP.

[Mallory]

Nooooo!  There were so many more relatively innocent Lowersfolk to cut down in cold blood!

[Sankis]

William was great. Sad to see him go!

Had a lot of fun in my interactions with him. Going to miss seeing him around. I never even got to buy his book.

[Mortui]

Excellent excellent character, he was played like a real person.

Bravo Pool, fucking bravo.

[djspectre]

I loved William and all of his adventures.

I really wish we had succeeded at growing your arm back.

Overall he was a sweet character both in persona and in portrayal. Despite not having an active character right now, I feel that the server has a void without him.

[The Old Hack]

Oh Lord. Anne will be crushed. She never got to share her tale with him.

Will was fantastic and I'll miss him. Great, great job, Pool.

[Hhean]

Kind of odd to think about sanctuary without him, really. Always been a staple.

Regret not buying his book

[Caster13]

Great work, Pool!

How many people ended up being his book anyway?
