Aidan Crowe
General History
Aidan comes from a family of healers in a small town. His father was pushy about him following in their footsteps, while his mother just wanted him to have a reliable career. He never wanted to get into the family business, so he struck out on his own once he was of age, selling jewelery made from recycled materials found in his travels and occasionally dabbling in fortune telling. While he got very good at healing, he's not particularly interested in using his healing skills for others, unless he is paid a good price, or the purpose is to help an injured animal, his one weakness.He has strong knowledge of herbs and potions after his healing background.
Has a cat named Ryu, with black fur and yellow eyes, who may or may not be a familiar that helps him find magical items.
Aidan has a short temper with inanimate objects that don’t behave.
To relax, he can be found in woodland clearings, reading novels or studying wildlife.
Strong believer in the phrase 'Work smarter, not harder'. There is always a way to do things more efficiently.
