Brother Walter

Description
---Short and guant, this 66-year-old has seen much of what the world of Numenera has to offer. Typically seen wearing a bright green coat and brandishing a notebook. His thin, stripy beard has some renown in the caravan.

Background
---Walter was born in the inner reaches of the Great Continent, in the Land of Spires: a great montainous region characterized by razor-sharp montain ridges and freezing weather. Being the youngest son in a family, which depended on herding and gathering in this bleak landscape, his prospects for fame, fortune or even a lenthy life seemed exceedingly low.

Walter decided to run away.

Some might argue that he never stopped running: either towards death or from the responsibilities that come with a settled, stationary life. After a rough life working as a Numenera scavenger near Sameru-Tian, he came to enlist in one of the local monastery orders: The House of Heavenly Masters. One of the order's sacred duties is to record "the nature of the world". Walter, who was ill suited for a life of quiet contemplation volunteered to be one of the Ever Walking, to venture out and record his journey so that it might be stored among thousands of others.

Personality

Motivations
---To travel and record wondrous things and sights, so that they may be recorded forever in the Chapter of Worldly Affairs. Struggles with an old Numenera addiction: a substance know as Pen-Jao.
