There is a certain marsh in Elved where a certain fairy dwells. This fairy is supposedly more malicious and selfish than even some of the worst examples of that capricious species; and so was called by the moniker of Petty-King for his devotion to misleading and confusing travelers. Due to the lack of intelligence this specimen had, he apparently mistook the moniker for an accolade, and has been known by it ever since... - The venerable Cadfael, Historiae Elved.
Brynn is, speaking bluntly - a bully. Unaware of the fact that he barely pushes six inches (not counting his hair) Brynn enjoys tormenting and making fun of travelers lost in the marshes, getting into fights, and getting out of trouble. Despite his small size, he packs a considerable punch - and due to it, is an expert at saying nasty things and flying away at breakneck speeds.
However, Brynn is not quite as cruel as the stories go. To other members of the Fae, he is kind and even helpful; and to those who pay a 'toll' - which is usually whatever trash they have on them that Brynn takes a liking to - he will serve as an excellent guide through the more dangerous fens and marshes.
