Players/Robb Odo

Class
Rogue, Scout

Background
Robb grew up as a simple farmer. An only child he worked the farm with his parents. Hunting in the forest and selling hides as a supplement to the family income in rough years.

Then the war with Sembia started.

Like many of his friends, Robb joined the Cormyte army. He served as an archer, scout and forager. The soldier’s life suited him well and he rose to command a small unit.

During the war Robb was captured by a Sembian raiding party. He refused to cooperate and they tortured him. The Sembian torturer enjoyed his work. Branding with hot irons, stretching on a makeshift wrack and more. He also gave Robb the lash. Whipping him, not on the back as is usual, but across his chest. So that he could see the pain his strokes caused. Some of the lashings finding his face. Robb couldn't make out his tormentor's face through the pain, blood in his eyes and dim light. But his voice, laughing and taunting all the while: that voice he will never forget.

Robb was rescued by a war cleric named Jormek Dudz. Robb found more than one opportunity to repay Jormek’s favour before the war was through. They became firm friends.

During the war, and in that episode in particular, Robb made some strong friendships, which last to this day. Following the war Robb returned home but couldn't settle back into his old life. Many of his childhood friends never came back from the war. Having seen more of the world, farm and village life was just too quiet and left too much room for his mind to wander back to his torture.

While wandering his way through Cormyr’s finest taverns, he found some of his old war comrades including Jormeck. Together they formed an adventuring guild Le Verde Regarde (The Widow’s Watch).
