Biography[edit | edit source]
Not a lot is known about Blackthorn. He appears to be 80 years old, but stories float amongst the druids that he has been with them since the beginning and no one remembers him being a younger man. Blackthorn was rumored to have fought against the Romans in Gaul and fled to Britain to avoid being captured and killed. He is very wise, but prefers to keep to himself.
He has some spell capabilities and is very useful in growing crops when the weather is not cooperating (drought, flood, etc.) as he has an uncanny ability to coax plants to grow even in the most horrible conditions. Blackthorn has value too, because of his knowledge of herb lore. He has healed many plague victims and saved lives through the use of plant tinctures and plasters. He has a loud laugh and he likes to dance and sing at festivals, particularly the winter solstice which is also his birthday. He can read and speak Latin fluently, which folks believe means he was a Roman slave while in Gaul. Blackthorn will neither confirm nor deny this ever happened.
