Ah yes, I see. Well, you're in luck, no one should know my face at Changing Hands, as far as I'm aware. [Meaning someone will willingly play with her, yes.] You can keep an eye on my back while we're waiting for him. You know I can get focused.

Rugo Kerrit. He's a bruiser for hire from Darktown. Likes a bit of gambling and beating the shit out of people who owe smarter people than him money, but no particular history of elf hatred, or kidnapping in general. Hence, I doubt he's the end of the line. He sounds very replaceable.
