10-29-03, 12:14 PM His name is Rook MacCobRood. He has fled his homeland because his family is part of the Unseelie Court, and he has seen the havoc such evil can have on the land. I'm sort of basing him off the old Avenger Druid Kit from 2nd Edition. He's 1st level. He has a wardog named Gorsedd. He is Neutral, with slightly Good tendencies. He's an archer. He basically looks like the Crow.

So he's on the run, but I'm not sure if his family is pursuing him or not, and if they are, is it to kill him or bring him back into the fold?

How should I roleplay him? Int 14, Wis 17, Cha 8.

10-29-03, 01:04 PM Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the Seelie and Unseelie courts are composed of Feys, not elves?

Anyway. Let's suppose it's something near this. He should be amazed of every little thing in the nature: every flower is beautiful, every tree. Sand is composed of thousands of little crystal, is not beautiful? By witnessing the unholy acts of the Unseelie court, he should be aware that such beauty is really quick to be lost. He should defend this beauty at all cost.

But you have a high wisdom, so you can understand other peoples point of view. Someone who hunt by sport but preserve the flora is less dangerous than someone who let his sheeps eat all the grass of a land.

Your charisma is low, so when you are angry against someone, no way to hide it, your diplomacy is far.

10-29-03, 02:55 PM Yeah, my skills are Concentration, Handle Animal, Listen, Spellcraft, Spot, and Survival. We used Swim a lot last time, so I might put some points in that. And Knowledge nature. Maybe de-emphasize my Listen and Spot. We have an elf ranger in the party; I hope she's good at those!

I picture my guy's role as one who doesn't defend nature, per se, but rather seeks out those that harm nature and put a stop to them. More proactive. It also lets him wander around with the rest of the party.
