Background
Ryheric the mercenary-bard blew in to Combe one day from "east-a-ways". He arrived as part of a large and spread out caravan. Dwarven traders, human merchants, refugees, travelers, visitors favouring the safety of the large group. The caravan dispersed once it reached Bree. However, from a few individuals who had arrived on the caravan with him, new Breelanders who had joined them, and other folk they had met along the way, the kinship Narrators of Fate was formed.
Ryheric's habit of involving himself to help locals with investigation or searching tasks began to turn into something different as others asked to join him. He became a leader as the kinship grew in number and involvement. Ryheric's own skill and confidence in leadership has increased as Narrators of Fate became his driving force and the first home he has ever known. No longer the purposeless alley-cat drifter, he had given up his solitude, and puts the wellbeing of his team first.
The kinship is now a co-operative, nomadic team which functions like a family.
Narrators of fate strives to be helpful to the Free Folk of Middle Earth. Sometimes it's through mercenary work, trade, building connections or possessing a skill that will help others adapt to what is required on the field. Sometimes investigation. Sometimes it is simply a willingness to stop by and speak to jaded locals, invigorating a spark of camaraderie or hope. Other times it is listening to other adventurers passing through speak of their tales and experiences. Of course, it is also story telling, music, dancing and revelry!
Members hold themselves to the motto: "provide, don't expect."
It means that each kinship member has a responsibility to reach out and provide what they can for those around them to flourish, not sit back and expect efforts to only be handed to them.
Idle tourists or those unfit for zeal in tasks and teamwork need not apply!
