Finn

 

No one knows Finn's real name, or if Finn even is his real name. He appeared in Alchester a few months ago with no guild affiliation, no known associates, and no surname anyone has ever heard him use. What little is known about him comes from the noise he makes — and Finn makes a lot of noise.

Young, brash, and recklessly talented, Finn is a freelance thief operating without sanction in a city where unsanctioned thieves don't tend to last long. He works alone, answers to no one, and carries himself with the unshakable confidence of someone who has never faced real consequences. His scores are bold, his methods surprisingly sophisticated for someone his age, and his spending habits ensure that everyone in Alchester's underworld knows exactly how well his latest job went. Fortune earned on Monday vanishes at the dice tables by Friday, only to be replenished by the next reckless heist.

Finn's talent is genuine. He can crack vaults that should be beyond someone of his years and produce results that impress even seasoned professionals. But talent without wisdom is a dangerous combination, and Finn's arrogance blinds him to the enemies he's making — guild leaders who don't appreciate freelancers poaching in their territory, dangerous clients whose names should never be spoken aloud, and a city full of people far more ruthless than a young thief who thinks himself the cleverest man in any room he enters.

Where Finn came from, who taught him his trade, and what drove him to Alchester remain mysteries. He seems content to let people wonder — or more likely, he simply doesn't care. He is young enough to think himself immortal and foolish enough to prove otherwise.
