Character Background
A travelling food vendor who has been enticed by the prospects of a big festival. Originally from northern Germany, Wilford's an accomplished cook who could easily be successful wherever he settles, but chooses to practice his craft as a travelling vendor to see more of the world's sights, people, and foods. A lively guy, Wilford enjoys setting up festive atmospheres, and is always more than happy to share a beer with a stranger.

Evident Boon
Empathetic Detection (Ability)

An ability awakened by the tower to allow detection of others and emotions. As an "Examine" action, Wilford may select any character he has previously seen (player, NPC, or enemy). Wilford will then detect the room of that character at the time of his "Examine" action (or if the target moves during the action, Wilford will detect their start and end location). Alternatively, he may choose to detect for a particular emotion nearby, such as pain, despair, happiness, etc. If there is anyone within the tower Wilford has previously seen with that strong emotion, he will detect their location (but not their identity). This may detect multiple individuals in some cases.
