Edwyn has travelled around Wales and the North of England a fair bit. He is a good, careful carpenter and able to find work in almost any reasonably sized town. His 'hobby' is making bows and he is obsessed with making the finest longbow. He is looking for a place to settle where he is the senior carpenter rather than working under others, so that might eventually have time to work on his bowmaking talent.

'''NOTE:''' I figured a bowyer could use his creations even without the usually required access to martial skills. Also not sure about the stats for shooting. Dex or Per for Att? Brawl:Dodge for Def? Add Str or not to damage? I can see arguments either way and the rules are silent (so the default would be Dex, bow not dodge, add Str).
