Veterans of the Illusion

Not well-funded; nor the most qualified, or interested, the Veterans of the Illusion stand for little and care about even less. Among their guild hall outside of the famous Library of Asundeai, you will find performers, vagabonds and those simply filled with wanderlust.    

Leader

 

Jackson McKnight

Neutral Good, Male Halfling   Jackson is a proud and perpetually optimistic leader. His professional journey began as a bard studying in Graetis before he unexpectedly stumbled into his current position. His outgoing and personable nature has elevated Jackson to the forefront of the Veterans of the Illusion.   While he is a hardworking and charismatic halfling, Jackson's true ambition lies in elevating the Veterans to a more distinguished status within the Guilds of Tor. Presently, they struggle with insufficient funding and a lackluster reputation, hindering their ability to attract notable figures. Consequently, Jackson has been compelled to gather a team of lackadaisical, underpaid, past-their-prime, and unmotivated adventurers. Despite these challenging circumstances, he remains unwaveringly positive, eagerly accepting any guild assignment that pays, hopeful that each new venture will set the Veterans on a trajectory toward triumph.
