Finer Things in Life:

Passions:

• To do my part as a member of the Sound and the Fury to not just create the greatest music ever made, but also to save the world and more.
• To see my children taught the proper Galdunic way
• To be worthy of the Gift the Green Mother gave me and protect my friends no matter what.
• To be Maggie's husband properly.
• To continue to control his urges when it comes to the finer things in life.

Convictions:

• The worst death of all is none at all--the curse of undeath is a horror that can't be tolerated
• Though Galdun is now ten centuries gone, it will never be forgotten
• Rhythm is everything
• All forms of music have merit
• The finer things in life have no power over me. Maggie and my sons are all I need
• Always trust your instincts
• The Blue Wombat Joke was not what was expected.

Relationships:

• The Porcelain Army is now dust
• Maggie Peltier, his former and once again wife, loves her intensely, she taught him the power of foreign music by buying him strange percussion instruments as part of their courtship--he bought her an art gallery
• Donald Peltier, grown son, reunited, glad that he's on his own path
• Rowan Peltier, grown son, reunited, glad that he's found work for Maraddon
• Veronique Gallier, sister, very influential in Central Maraddon, a godsend on my recent adventure
• Aleron Gallier, brother-in-law, dead & good riddance
• The Sound and the Fury, his new band, the greatest band in the world
• Jack Crane, holy knight of music, leader. He is as brave as Arlie, as devout as Dionysus, and an inspiration to me. It's a pleasure to be in his band.
• Arsul Toutant, old friend & companion, he's untouchable. I have to tone out his music during concerts, or I lose my concentration, it's so beautiful. He has mastered what handicap he had and then some. What was once beyond my understanding about him now seems so clear.
• Arlie Battisto, new friend, my kinda guy, his impulses sometimes go beyond the pale, but all in all, he's a resourceful guy. Now that he's been rejuvenated, he's got focus like never before, and I almost envy him that. He has truly merited our respect in the Summer Country.
• Dionysus Berrywight, bandmate, highly respected, almost grandfatherly to us, a guide more than a bandmember. I'm glad he can hear once more.
• Aurelia Lucent, bandmate, quiet girl, but incredibly talented. Her music refuses to be pinned down, and though she's walked some rough roads, she's come out of it stronger than any of us. Her resourcefulness would have been surprising without the Song connecting us. She is a determined and strong woman.
• Avery Colzayre, bandmate, he saved me from my very worst nightmares, and for that I owe him all I have. I'll follow him to the Hells and back if I have to. He's showing some grit now, and I hope we can save his lost family soon. I don't fear the Nightmares with this band by my side.
• Subiquim Ixioj, bandmate, he lost something in the Peace Plains, but he seems to have come through it the same. He no longer seems strange to me, and I'm glad to understand him better.
• Bartleby, bandmate, if I weren't already working with legends of the craft, I'd be awed. His talent and his Gift make him a powerhouse, a titan. I envy him, a bit, but I am glad he is with us.
• Tomerane, bandmate, it hurt to feel her go, but now I understand her so much better. Her cold heart is actually rather terrifying.
• Leonas, bandmate, his loss was tragic.
• Leia, bandmate, my heart was torn out to lose her, too.
• Hunny, Kashaji, Manny, & Little Wing, etc: I can't believe I've gotten used to this
• Mullangat Ytromane, I might have hit him first, but that's no excuse for taking a good drummer's arm. All in all, though, things have worked out. I don't hate him anymore.
• Rogistro, supplier of the finer things in life, now dead at my son's hands. I regret it had to go that way, but he was trying to kill me
• Blue Wombat Joke: very odd
