- Nathan has no idea who his father is, or what the man might have looked like, except that he was a big guy. His mother refused to say anything more, and no one else in his (now lost) family troupe knew anything.
- He has recently adopted the black kitten that used to follow him around, naming it "Minuet"
- Nathan is rather pacifistic. While he is not entirely opposed to violence, he will make every attempt to find a non-violent solution to any situation he is in...
- ...unless someone takes or damages his lute. This offense bypasses all charm or good nature he has, and leaves him remembering that he is a very large, fit, and strong individual who actually does know how to brawl better than most people even suspect.
- He has developed a strong dislike for the taste of pumpkins after a drinking contest that went poorly.

"But in the laugh there was another voice. A clearer laugh, an ironic laugh. A laugh which laughs because it chooses not to weep."
