Malrik

Overview

Malrik is a halfling treasure hunter travelling through Lyonne Forest as part of Garrick’s expedition.

Quieter than many of his companions, Malrik appears more comfortable observing from the sidelines than competing for attention. He is first encountered with a book open upon his knees, taking only a brief moment to assess the newcomers before returning to his reading.

Quick Facts

Appearance & Manner

Malrik is a halfling man whose physical appearance is not described in detail upon his introduction.

He is first seen sitting with a book open across his knees, reading by lantern light. His attention briefly shifts towards unfamiliar faces with a quick, assessing glance before returning almost immediately to the page.

Personality

• Observant: Malrik appears to take in unfamiliar people quickly before deciding whether they warrant further attention.
• Reserved: he does not rush to introduce himself or join the louder conversations around the camp.
• Studious: books appear to hold considerably more of his attention than socialising.
• Independent: Malrik seems perfectly content occupying himself while the rest of the expedition talks around him.
