Senz Warsythe

Senz Warsythe was born as Sai. He was the largest Sai ever to grace the land of Yushen and great things were expected of him. Senz had a fatal flaw that would leave those expectations unfulfilled: he greatly feared all things magical. Since Mesk was their primary enemy, Senz could not expect anything less than magical confrontation in the event of battle. His fear was so great that he literally froze when confronted with the prospect of magic.

He met Neilen in Outcast and the two became fast friends. Senz was quite honorable so it took quite a bit of coaxing before he was willing to join Neilen in his thievery. Even when he did it was only with the understanding that nobody got hurt and that they would only target well-to-do people that could survive with a little less weight in their pockets.

When Senz met Rais'Alon and saw the magic, he didn't recognize it. But when he eventually found out, he had already come to like Rais'Alon so well that he was surprised he felt no fear.

...then wizards came.
