Eleanor of House Ex Miscellanea

s you knock upon a door of stout English oak on the third floor of Austhwaite manor, you hear someone stop muttering in Latin. Moments later, the door opens...and you find yourself looking up at the surprisingly large figure towering above you. The man's blue eyes sparkle with curiosity, though they also betray some slight irritation. His raiments would not be out of place on a noble, and he strikes you more as a lord than as a scholar.

"Do come in. You can sit down..."

Here the giant scratches his bearded chin and frowns. The room is filled to capacity with books, laboratory equipment, and strange smells and sounds. Apparently, the man is a sorceror after all.

Baelthornon of Bonisagus strides past you.

"I suppose I'd better clear some room for you to sit."

Looking from one chair to another, Baelthornon plucks a large, strange, bobtailed cat from one of them and unceremoniously dumps her in the floor. The animal complains loudly, but the wizard seems unapologetic.

"Sorry, Arianrod, we have guests." Looking back at you, he smiles. "What can I do for you?"
