Tkrn is a Gnoll and a Junior Guardsman in Liscor.

Personality

He hates riddles.

Background

Krshia Silverfang (as his chieftain) has even more authority over him as Zevara does as his Watch Captain. Krshia is however subtle enough and usually doesn't give him orders, especially not ones that conflict with his duties as a [Guardsman]. Tkrn however does serve as one of her agents in Liscor's City Watch, and he doesn't like that very much. He calls Krshia his aunt informally, but that doesn't necessarily mean he is her actual nephew.

He is one of the more inexperienced warriors among his clansmen, and has grown up in Liscor.

Chronology

Tkrn had been introduced to Erin at an earlier time, when he tried to woo her after Krshia decided she would help Erin get a mate. Tkrn failed to find Erin's interest with smelly flowers and a wooden ring, when first asking her out.

Tkrn fought alongside the City Watch during Skinner's Attack on Liscor, among other functions as a runner and liason to the Antinium Hive.

He was on guard duty when Toren exploded Erin's first inn with krakk wood and spotted the smoke. He later carried out the exiling of Lyonette from Liscor.

He not only tipped off Krshia on security issues but also on business opportunities.

Tkrn participated in a plot where some Gnolls and a Drake snuck into prison and tortured Calruz, as the Minotaur was held responsible for the deaths that occured during the Raskghar attacks. Tkrn couldn't prevent Mrsha from discovering the crime, but he protected her from his co-conspirators. For ultimately helping bring down the plot and showing remorse, Tkrn was the only guard participating in the torturing who wasn't fired, but he was demoted and punished nevertheless.

He has recently been paired together with Junior Guardswoman Jarci, despite them both being Junior Guards, for example when he helped Klbkch locate the thief of Erin's Faerie Flowers.
