Description

Not tall, Nathan appears trimly built but often seems to stoop a little. It's clear that he's middle-aged, but he has one of those faces that's hard to age beyond that, square, with a prominent jaw, and with short back-swept hair still dark but receding above a high forehead. It's a face that falls readily into a smile, creasing at the laughter-lines round his mouth and clear blue eyes.
He's wearing a white shirt, open at the neck, and with the sleeves rolled to above the elbows. Its tails are tucked into trousers of a plain and hard-wearing lightweight fabric in a pleasant pale blue. The clothing's not new, but it's been well cared for, though there are usually a few specks of sawdust to be seen somewhere about his person. Boots are well made and of better quality than the rest of his attire.
He is an older adult of about 50.


Common Knowledge

  • An instrument crafter, and a good one.
  • Can get a tune out of any instrument - but only one, or so he claims.
  • Here partly for his health and partly to try out some of those interesting Southern woods.
  • Amiable, good-natured, perhaps a little scatty.
  • Comes and goes a lot - perhaps because of his convalescent schedule.

Uncommon Knowledge

  • Whilst he is indeed an instrument crafter, and a good one, that's not his main value to the craft. Those wood-buying missions are a useful cover for more covert activities.
  • His time at sea has left him capable of working as crew on a ship with no risk of being found out - he genuinely has those skills and can pull his weight.
  • There's nothing wrong with his health.

Relationships


History

Born at Fort Seahold, he joined the Harpers after a few turns on his family's fishing boat. He has always been keen on woodwork, and learned a fair bit from an uncle who was a boatbuilder, but as a lad, music was his first love. He joined the harpers in his mid-teens, turning his back on the family business. His career has appeared unspectacular, but he's climbed steadily through the ranks and has the trust of the Masterharper.
He's quite well travelled, and has on a number of occasions been sent by the Hall to various places to investigate supplies of wood suitable for instruments. He's been based at the Harper hall for the last few turns, and achieved his mastery a couple of turns before coming to Southern.
