Notes

Swipes spent most of his childhood homeless and on the streets, up until he was fifteen years old. That's when Guild Master Rayna noticed him and took him under her wing.

She caught him in the act of picking her pocket. She could see he was hungry, so she took him to a nice restaurant for something to eat, gave him a few pointers and paid six months rent in advance on a tiny apartment for him.

During that time, she taught him the art of thieving. He learned quickly, for the consequences of failing her were always high.

He learned on the streets to use a knife. Under her tutelage, he became a master of it. On the streets he learned to skulk around quietly. From her he learned to become nearly invisible.

Swipes does not realize it, but the Guild Master has a bit of a crush on him. She's been looking after him the past four years due to a "girlish fancy" that she can't quite shake, even though she's tried. She does not let this show and Swipes has been slapped several times just for complementing her on her appearance, as she would do with any of the Shadowed Eyes.
