STABLEHAND WIGGINS

Persona : Wiggins
Writing Status : NPC/Owned
Age : 72
Gender : Male
Rank/Craft : Stablehand
Residence : Green Ridge Hold

Physical Description : Wiggins is a short man, standing no more than five feet two inches, whip-thin, but with hard muscle under tough skin that admittedly could see the bathing rooms more often. Bright blue eyes twinkle under a shock of snow white hair, still thick despite his age.

Personality : Wiggins is generally of good humor, a hard worker who none-the-less enjoys a good joke--the telling of one as much as hearing it. He fancies himself a ladies man, and sometimes is an outrageous flirt with the aunties in the kitchen. Most often he dresses in old clothing he gets from the cast-off supplies from the headwoman or from the weavers, although he does have a few sets of good clothes which Master Saris made him purchase for the race meet at Sonnettes Dawn. He is saving those, and they only come out on special occasions. When the chips are down, however, he is a good man to have on your side.

Life Story : The middle son of a cotholder with a gaggle of offspring, Wiggins was born and spent most of his life in the north. As he grew he came to spend more and more of his time in the woods away from the cot and became adept at hunting wherries. As an adult he employed himself to a prosperous minor cothold as a hunter and spent most of his life at that pursuit. When the call came for settlers to relocate south at Green Ridge Hold, he responded, and for the first time in his life found himself in a new environment.
For a short while he did continue to pursue his skill as a hunter, bringing wherries to the pot at the fledgling Hold. Before long, however, he got himself attached to the beastcraft as a stable hand, and when the Lady began her Great Chicken Endeavor, he managed to get himself put in charge of the care of the chickens. Now he calls himself a Chicken Herder.
