Profile

Brenick Fauleen was born to Caynean nobility; he is the sole successor of House Fauleen in Upper Caynea. He was only 14 years old when he was introduced to the Wisemen's Guild, specifically the Wiseman of Caynea, who declared that he would bring about the fall of his House. Brenick, being a passionate type, swore that he would not disgrace his house, and fled north. He found himself in a small farming community, where he learned to train cattle and horses, and was taught the finer points of the bullwhip. At 18, Brenick met Fortune-Giver, who advised him to form a traveling caravan. Over the next six years, Brenick recruited new members and drivers and formed a traveling troupe that is well known throughout southern Shantania.

During Lynia's journey, Brenick, now 24 years old, introduces himself as "Wagonmaster Bren," the captain of a train of covered wagons that roams Lower Shantania. He is quite secretive about his origins, even among those he trusts the most. Even to Lynia, he is unwilling to speak of the incident that prompted him to leave his House.

Epilogue

When word reached House Fauleen about the brave deeds of their eldest son, Brenick, they allowed him to return to the House, no questions asked. While initially hesitant, Brenick eventually agreed, under the condition that the people in his wagon train be free to visit whenever they wish.
