The Story of Newt Gengrich
Newt arrived in Sasserine on a merchant vessel which he had hidden aboard as a stowaway. He was very young and had barely escaped his village during an Orc attack. His witnessed his family slain and ran for the river to save his life because he knew that most Orcs could not swim.
After he arrived in Sasserine he lived on the streets in the Merchant District and hid from other people. He stole what he needed to survive and was fairly successful at it.
One day he was discovered trying to pick a lock on a merchant's door. It was his second attempt at opening the lock. Master Schlage, an elder guild member at the local Locksmith's Guildhall, caught him in the act. Master Schlage had come to repair the damage Newt had caused on the previous night. Master Schlage made him an offer he couldn't refuse. Newt could attend the Guild and put his talent to good use or go to jail. He immediately set to work fixing the lock which he had broken.
He is a member in good standing and works part-time in the shop owned by Master Schlage.
A member of a thieves guild in Sasserine took notice of Newt's ability with locks and approached him. He told Newt that he knew a more profitable use for Newt's skills and introduced him to the art of appropriation.
Thus began Newt's career.
