COMMON GROUND

Well-known facts

  • FOR HIRE | Will take posted jobs escorting and guarding researchers, trade caravans, etc. during off time.

  • LIFE OF ADVENTURE | Have you need of an adventurer's work? Or perhaps you're an adventurer in need of leves. Seek Sawyer to liaise for you.

  • SPELLSLINGER | Wields a curious custom revolver gunblade that acts as a spell focus. This brilliant, if volatile, design might scare (or thrill) an experienced mage.

  • GOING BALLISTIC | A weapons designer is never bored. Sawyer is always looking for new opportunities to ply her trade creating magical weapons and foci, as well as for suppliers.

  • HEART OF LIGHT | As a blind raen woman beings to spout mystifying prose at you, the bemused hyur just beyond her looks ready to provide translation... after watching you struggle, that is.

  • ARTIFACT AFFINITY | Takes a pointed interest in the acquisition and study of magical artifacts, particularly those involving soul magic.

  • SOULFORGED | Possessed of a soulstone unlike most—completely devoid of tales carved upon its strikingly violet face, as if new.

RARE FORM

Lesser-known intrigues

  • TRIAL BY COMBAT | Ishgardians may recall a sensational story from the Tribunal that pit lover against lover. The loser escaped Halone's judgement before the final blow could land, however...

  • DEATH DEFIANT | The people of Revanant's Toll spin tales of woman collapsing dead under the aetheryte, only to learn that the body was mysteriously exhumed from the unmarked grave nearly a year later.

  • Those seeking the aid of the Guild

RAGE, RAGE AGAINST THE UNDYING OF THE LIGHT

Well-known facts

  • THROW WIDE THE GATES | Found yourself on a star unknown? Perhaps the guard with the pitying frown can offer you assistance.

  • GUARD DUTY | Sawyer's duties as a Crystarium guard lead her from the city proper to the Lakeland wilds on patrol for sin eaters, warg, and bandits alike.

  • BATTLE-HARDENED | Her service at the battles of Holminster Switch and Laxan Loft, and the defense of Lakeland against the Eulmore-controlled sin eaters has prepared Sawyer for the worst.
