The chalk slate in the large window of Tensar's Employment Service boasts a bright new job listing.
Discrete minders needed for brief foray into Ysgard. Travel expenses and provisions paid, must provide own weapons. Wilderness survival skills a plus. Wage: 25 GP.
Utadas Tensar, master of the establishment, greets you with an encouraging smile and a nod as you cross the threshold. Despite his age, the Guvner has a full head of hair and thick, close-cropped beard, both a deep red streaked through with gray.
"Good day, cutter," he says graciously, motioning to the seat across from him. "What can I do for you?"

Seeing the neatly coifed red bearded Guvner sitting behind the desk she approaches him with a swagger in her step, and bows awkwardly. "Afternoon, cutter. I don' usually bang 'round these parts, though I'm interested in applyin' fer the job ye've got pinned up out thar.
I've had some experience, mostly out on tha Land though, before comin' ta Sigil. Nowadays I earn me greens ina tha ring, an as a Tout. Gettin bored wit it though. I need some excitement. The woman talks quickly - not so quickly that her words can't be followed - but quick enough to reveal something of her nature.
She radiates a restless and frenetic energy, made evident in her wildly shifting eyes, her hands, and the way she seems to be constantly moving, although she stands still; at least as still as such a vivacious woman could manage.
