Mikahrafon, royal herald

"With the red-striped lance is Lord Bohdan Wiern son and heir of the wise and honorable Duke Garland Wiern. After a well-earned round one victory, this first time jouster is often to a prodigious start and sets himself up against a worthy opponent indeed.   WIth the blue-striped lance is Sir Gawell Linijika, son of Lord Frydel Linijka. Sir Gawell is personal knight of King Henryk himself and the winner of the 1814 Crown Days Tournament and hero of the great troll attack of 1817. Sir Gawell bested his round one fairly handedly, will he get another tournament win under his belt?   It's youth against experience! The flags up and our riders our facing off!"
  Mikahrafon is a satyr Folk Magician who was a relatively unknown member of the Sabbatzarod Coven that has recently risen out of o obscurity into minor celebrity status. He is recently made a royal herald personally by King Henryk's and he is acquitting his new duties well.

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Mikahrafon is robust and hearty and in good shape like most young adult satyrs but he is not exceptionally strong or athletic by any means. He certainly has the lung power to be a good town cryer.

Special abilities

Mikahrafon is an Enchanter though not a particularly powerful one. He also has begun learning a couple basic Illusion Spell Descriptions.   One spell he can cast reliably and well is Amplify which makes his voice and carrying which he has now made into basis of his new career as a herald where his main job is to say things very loudly.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Mikahrafon grew up on a farm in Fumaya but somehow as a young lad, he was lucky enough to be offered an apprenticeship with a human folk wizard where he did okay, eventually melding into the crowd of the Sabbatzarod Coven where he found a small niche for himself making Speaking Sticks.   Mikahrafon was a last minute choice for the announcer of the Royal Jousting Tournament of the 1838 Crown Days of Fumaya.   But he was able to work the crowd well, he didn't flub the introductions of any of the jousters' house or lineage, and he was respectful without being too obsequious when dealing with high born. This impressed King Henryk enough to offer him a job. Also, King Henryk wants to show how welcoming he is to non-humans (unlike those racist Swynfaredian Dragonbloods!)   So at least for now, having a satyr as public spokeman is a politically expedient move. The fact that satyrs are making up an increasing percentage of the Fumaya Armed Forces may or may not have influenced the king's decision as well.
