Bartouk Hanneker
Bu madde henüz yalnızca İngilizce.
Bartouk Hanneker is a new recruit of the Brine Blades from the small coastal town of Mossentry. In his early twenties, he is a promising young man and an expert fisherman.1
The sahuagin raid
Bartouk took up adventuring a few years ago, after losing his best friend in a sahuagin attack on their town. Some twenty sahuagin raided Mossentry, killing many people, and the town guard was poorly equipped to meet them. Bartouk and his friend Garrick took up arms and faced the towering sahuagin leader. While Bartouk looked for a way to harpoon it, Garrick grappled the creature and told him to strike; the leader had many chances to wound Garrick badly, but the hold let Bartouk drive his weapon through its thick skull. With their leader dead, the rest of the raiders fled.2
Garrick soon died when his wounds became infected. Before he died he wished for his friend to follow the adventurous life they had always wanted, and Bartouk promised to pursue their dream, joining the Brine Blades.2
In the Brine Blades
Among the Brine Blades Bartouk became friends with the gnome inventor Ozzie, who made him a pair of gloves that send a shock into anything his spear strikes; Bartouk tends to save that for brawnier enemies.2
In battle
Bartouk is observant, studying an enemy and acting accordingly. Aware of his inexperience, he avoids putting himself in harm's way and concentrates on foes that are weaker than or equal to him. His skill at swordfish fishing sets him apart from the usual fighter: he uses a thin swordfish spear tied to a fine silk rope, so that he can draw it back from an enemy within reach.2
