Theodor Smythe is a street magician and occasional thief in Serenton. He was a slave in The Mines of Malis. Played by Jordan.

Background

Theodor Smythe was born into a poor household in the countryside outside of Serenton. His mother died while giving birth to his younger brother Petyr, and his father turned to drinking soon after. When their father failed to return after a night of heavy drinking, Theodor and Petyr traveled to Serenton to find him. They never did.

After caught stealing food, Theodor and Petyr were sent to an orphanage. This punishment taught Theodor one thing: he must be a better thief. He practiced stealing food, silverware, and other items from the orphanage, before putting his skills to work as a street magician. He specializes in card tricks and throwing knives.

Theodor is not scared of a scrape, and believes he has even killed a couple of people with his knife, although he never stuck around long enough to find out. While willing to resort to violence when the situation is dire, he hopes against all else that his younger brother never finds out.

While he cares deeply for his brother, the two of them rarely see eye to eye. Theodor tries to protect his gullible brother, but will also try to involve him in his schemes to get rich.

Theodor is a charismatic, rouge-ish type. He is not innately evil, but very prone to larceny and often finds lying easier than the truth. He has a weakness for women and wine.
