Elsk Thavarask

Elsk Thavarask was the owner of the Missing Minotaur tavern in Everlund, circa the Year of Wild Magic, 1372 DR.

Description
"Squarejaw" Thavarask was about 5 ft 4 in (163 cm) tall with brown hair and green eyes. His face and skin showed evidence of many years spent outdoors.

Personality
Elsk was very even-tempered and slow to anger. He enjoyed being around people and he allowed them to be themselves in his tavern, up to a point. From past experiences, he disliked people who threw magic spells around without regard of the consequences for bystanders, the location, or the environment. He was also averse to fires that were not tended properly. Although he was a skilled fighter and could disarm folks who became belligerent, he preferred to surreptitiously drug patrons that were becoming a danger to themselves or others, and put them to sleep.

Abilities
Thavarask was very observant and often foresaw dangerous situations before they became unmanageable. He was quite skilled with a longsword and was proficient enough with a crossbow in a tavern environment.

Possessions
In addition to the Missing Minotaur, Elsk owned a set of +2 scale mail, a +1 large wooden shield, a +1 longsword]], boots of speed, and a masterwork heavy crossbow. He kept some gold and gems hidden in various caches around the tavern.
