He often orders others to do his work for him, such as his two constables, keeping his boots nice and clean.
 * In his spare time he whittles wood.
 * Met the party in Episode 1, who informed him of a goblin menace near the town of shallot. Upon the party killing a few goblins in a barn nearby, he took unkindly to the party’s sass and ordered them to leave the following day.

Brendan

 * Alleged murderer and into Gnomes

Brash, crude and impulsive, but wary of dangerous jobs. Is into Gnomes and bondage. Tends to be found at the Dragon’s Den.
 * Despite being a shady character, he is not affiliated with Ricktar and the Milditch Family – in fact he hates Ricktar.
 * The party seduced him with Tily’s wiles, whipped his penis, tied him up and delivered him to Ricktar.
 * A couple weeks later, Aldous ran into him and, by chance, Brendan did not recognize him. Aldous then asked Brendan to do a job for him, which Brendan thought was too dangerous and declined.

Constable Buttonwig

 * Constable in Abbera
 * Mean looking, grumpy and foul faced. His teeth are brown, chipped, filed and nasty. His armor is cleaner than it should be, his boots are clean and his spear is in good condition. Belligerent and drunk with power. All around mean guy.
 * First met the party to warn them about danger on the road, and was promptly punched in the face by Ore. After some bribery, he looked the other way.
 * A few days later he came back and arrested the party, and then asked Aldous to do a favor for him (saying that the party owes him for the black eye) reporting on prisoners in the dungeon. In the end, Aldous reported him to the captain of the guard, who arrested Buttonwig and sentenced him to two months of hard labour.
 * Currently serving his time.

Little Jimmy

 * Rich Child in Abbera

Ricktar

 * Member of the Thieves Guild in Abbera
 * A halfling rogue with dark hair and a plastic smile which hides a devious nature. He wears green and brown shades,has two shortswords hanging from his hips, and has studded leather armor under his clothes. From the town of Astari, he now calls Abbera his home.

 * He works for the Mildritch family. Which is an organized crime syndicate that runs in the Eastern portion of the Kingdom of Kalia and is primarily based in Abbera.
 * As a member of the Thieves guild, Ricktar tasked the party to apprehend Brendan for him. Once delivered, Ricktar took him away for questioning. When asked about this later he said Brendan was fine and all he wanted was a good chat.
 * Impressed with the party, he asked them to look for Old Man Wallace, who went missing transporting “goods” for him. When the party returned, they voiced their concerns about the unknown goods and resolved not to work with Rickter anymore.
 * However, when Aldous was on the run from the Abberan guards and the rest of the party was imprisoned, he reached out to Ricktar for help. Aldous told him about the situation in the dungeon and about the job Buttonwig forced upon him. Ricktar told him that Aldous was now a liability, that he should never have worked with the guards, citing a code of honor among thieves.
 * After the events with Constable Buttonwig, Ricktar called on the party again saying that he was grateful for removing Buttonwig, as he was about to discover the escape plot in the Abbera dungeon. He then commissioned the party to escort him into the forest to make a trade. It turned out that he was trading with orcs.

Sheriff of Abbera
