Tobble Reedwhistle
Fighter
Tobble Reedwhistle
Species
Lightfoot halfling
Appearance
Tobble has a round, open face and a compact, sturdy frame, but moves with the quiet, precise balance of someone used to wet planks and shifting currents. His weather-browned skin is stippled with pale freckles across the nose and forearms; the backs of his hands are rough from rope, river grit, and years of hauling lines. His dark curls spring up wherever his cap presses them flat. He is usually still as a moored boat, yet his hands keep making tiny, quick adjustments to knots, buckles, and anything that might drift out of place. The unexpected softness is his smile: warm and almost shy, even when he is sizing up a threat.
“Low and unhurried, with a habit of pausing as if listening for the river beneath the conversation. His humor is dry, never cruel.”

Distinguishing Features
His hands are roughened by rope and river grit, but his nails are kept unusually clean.
A blue scarf is always looped around one wrist, even in warm weather.
He touches the ferry's mooring knot before every crossing, as if greeting it.
Voice
“A soft, slightly gravelly tenor, warm around familiar names and clipped when the weather turns.”
Clothing
A moss-green wool coat with a patched elbow, a russet waistcoat, rolled trousers, and soft river boots. He wears a weathered cap to keep drizzle from his eyes and a faded blue scarf that he wraps around his wrist while working.
Body Language
He stands with his weight low and feet set as if the ground might move. His fingers test knots and buckles without his notice. When uneasy, he angles his body between a visitor and the ferry's mooring line.
