Bio:
Matrim is a companion for hire in the city of Ebongate. He works primarily in taverns and inns, but sometimes takes “exclusive” clients. He works with a partner, Joia. They look out for each other and sometimes work as a pair. His clients include both men and women and other humanoid races.
He spends about half of her time at the common room of The Song and Shield, an inn in Ebongate that caters to bards owned by the Baronet Azuredee Silverthistle.
