Hailing from Taldor, Sir Laribold Croome, the Gentleman Explorer, standsas one of the Society’s most unlikely and eccentric successes. He dresses in fine garments even while exploring the nastiest swamps, and his speech and movements are the epitome of aristocratic control and elegance. Sir Laribold is accompanied everywhere by his trusted manservant, Percy (N male halfling rogue 5). Independently wealthy, Sir Laribold funds his own missions and frequently hires qualified members of the Society to aid him on his exploits.
