Mariz, windsoul genasi paladin of Tymora, has been a risk-taker his entire life. In a sense, he considers himself to have been born to be an instrument of the "winds of chance". To answer that call, he entered the service of the Goddess of Luck and now wanders Waterdeep more or less at random. He counts on fortune to guide his steps to be in the right place at the right time to fall in with companions of good will.
