Threland "Goodman" Thornwood
| Name | Threland |
|---|---|

| Race | Man |
|---|---|
| Residence | Bree homesteads - Wadstoke, or under a table at the Prancing Pony under certain circumstances. |
| Kinship |
| Outward Appearance | Before you proudly stands a man who appears to be in between his late twenties and early thirties. An angular jaw, a bare chin, a long, friendly smile and a pair of honey-brown, round eyes are the most noticable features on his profile, his long and thin nose being the most dominant. Apart from occasional emotion marks, there are no visible wrinkles on his face, which bears an innocent and kind expression. Threland's medium-pitched and growling voice always sounds loud and confident, and talks in a strange accent which makes understanding what he says a difficult task sometimes. He generally pronounces "i" for ''oi', and ''a'' for an ''o''. Often speaking carelessly, he may sound rude, but there usually is no ill intention behind his words. His draft clothing, often torn, patched and even sloppily stitched at some spots covers his lean figure. Being neither the bulkiest nor the tallest, this man is of average stature. A large plumed hat never leaves his grey-haired head, and has prooved to be extremely useful on many occasions. You may also notice upon his hips a couple of large swords, and maybe an old, time-withered lute hanged at his back. When he plays, his muscular arms embrace the instrument with care while his strong fingers pull the strings. |

Background
They call him by many nicknames, some of which are Fancy-hat, Goodman, the Farmer, and occasionally the Bard and the Drunkard.
Being born and raised in a small town like Bree, Threland grew to be a cheerful and hospitable young lad, one that feels comfortable with just about everyone. Despite that, it's not hard to aggrivate him. He is not afraid to jump into a fight and he will do so if provoked, or if someone threatens the people he holds dear. He has an incredible ability to attract trouble upon him, sometimes without even trying. Hence he bears scars on his body, caused by various weapons and each of them telling a different story. For some reason he appears to jump a bit upon hearing a door open, and he dislikes birds, especially the ones that fly. Another strange quirk; his merryness can be broken, usually at the mention of lilliy-flowers and little fish.
In his own philosophy one should find joy to simplicity, rather than seeking kingly comforts, because the best things in life are those that most people neglect or look down to.

|---|---|
| Hates | loss, thieves, murderers, dangerously crazy people, those who underestimate/mistreat him |
| Motivation | to leave his family's passing to the past and move on, to earn a little coin to get by, to learn every gossip in town, to prove his worth, to share stories over a tankard of ale and a warm fire. |
| Quotes | "Imagine tha'!", "Oi Barly! Get me an ale an' be quick 'bout it!", "we're goin' t' have a problem", "me thinks..." |
