Character History
Niklaus grew up in the mountains far north of Italy & Greece, the child of traveling entertainers. All of the family were part of the act. As he grew older, songs and stories became Niklaus' specialties. "I love to make folks laugh. With me or at me, either is fine!" When the world changed and magic appeared (returned?), he found his ability to perform became even better, more profound. The whole family benefited from magic, it seemed, either directly or indirectly. Then one evening a few years ago, after the family performed in a town, Niklaus stayed the evening with an admirer, which was not unusual. But late at night, she suddenly attacked him. He barely survived and raced to where his family was staying. They were being attacked by creatures out of legend. His parents did not survive, but he managed to save his sisters, one younger, the other a fraternal twin of his. They escaped into the night, and kept going.
Eventually they found refuge with other performers, but eventually became their own troupe. His sisters have remained with him, while Niklaus turned to adventuring on the side, essentially becoming a freelance diplomat/spy. His skills at performing make him welcome, and his magic, which he tries to keep mostly hidden, helps him in his jobs, as well.
