Roland Nox "The Raven" backstory

Born in Egorian, Cheliax. Parents unknown. Grew up as a street urchin and was quickly swallowed into a minor thieves' guild. The guild of the crow toughened him up and taught him skills needed to survive. In the guild, as in all things, there were petty rivalries and jealousies. Roland was an excellent thief yet he made more enemies than friends due to his talent and Tiefling heritage. He would mark his crimes and equipment with a wand of marking he stole. Eventually this marking became known as his symbol, and he put it on all of his equipment. The growing jealousies of his less fortunate guild members resulted in them copying his mark and using it at the scene of heinous crimes till he was forced to depart the city from the price on his head. Till this day, none know how many crimes were his, and how many were fabricated.
