Sunspire · Active · Billy marked
A patient hunter with one extremely talkative set of extra eyes.
The person behind the legend
Roland survived the destruction of Ashreach Hill during the Infernal War. His company vanished without bodies or blood, leaving only a cracked warhorn and the name Towerheart. He has spent twenty years following infernal symbols and rumors, convinced the thing responsible escaped. He joined the party in Ashenvale with his Billy Bumbler companion and very quickly discovered that solemn vengeance travels poorly with this group.

What people remember
Heroism, poor judgment, private grief, public embarrassment—usually in combinations nobody planned.
Joined while the others were preparing a fake bard identity and somehow stayed.
Warned the party that one of them might be a spy; the discussion became an argument involving goats and spelling.
Accidentally broke the truce with the Shrine’s mimic guardians by firing one extra shot.
Tried to outword Towerheart in the Spirit Realm. Towerheart marked Billy instead.
Caught at the table
Things they genuinely said during play. Profanity, questionable plans, and all. Obvious transcription errors have been lightly cleaned; the wording has not been rewritten.
Session 6Defending the basic logic of espionage“Why would the spy tell you there's a spy in the group if they're trying to spy?”
Session 9Considering a safer home for an argumentative demon skull“Hey guys, what would happen if we throw him in the bag of holding?”
Session 12Faced with a serious supernatural problem and an equally serious thirst“Now, do we go drinky drink or do we go find a shaman?”
Session 12The investigation reaches its most disciplined phase“Who fucking lied?”
From the road
Reconstructed from the surviving campaign record—not verbatim transcripts, but faithful to the person revealed at the table.
A useful briefing“I told them there may be a spy among us. Within minutes we were discussing trapped goats. I miss soldiers.”
The Spirit Realm“I admitted I may have left my courage and honor on Ashreach Hill. Billy looked at me as if he already knew. Then Towerheart chose him.”
Rule for shrines“If the treasure chest becomes friendly, do not shoot it again. This rule now exists because of me.”
People in their orbit
Companion, scout, confidant, and the one friend Roland could not deny when Towerheart demanded a price.
The entity Roland has hunted since Ashreach—and the only witness who may know what truly happened there.
A source of warnings, including the still-unresolved claim that the party contains a spy.
Where the record stands
Alive in Vaelthalas. Billy carries Towerheart’s red mark and has been quieter since the Spirit Realm.
