Druid Backstory:

Zul grew up under the care of his parents, always terrified of what might happen to him if he were to stray too far. He was fiercely loyal to them and never strayed too far from home.

As he got older, he tired of the regimented lifestyle. He wanted to see the world, to explore and see the many wonders of Grabisco. His parents were reluctant to let him go, but they knew that he was becoming independent.

For a short time, he was content to stay home, but the desire to adventure grew stronger and stronger until he felt like he couldn’t survive another day. He set out to explore the world, and now Zul sees that he can’t live without the thrill of adventure.

Personality:

Zul has a strong sense of loyalty, which sometimes gets him into trouble. He is a bit naive but intelligent. He likes to think he can be friends with anyone, even if they’re different than him.

Appearance:

Zul has light brown hair and a medium complexion. He has a wide nose, small ears, a slender build, and a slightly long face. He dresses in simple, brown clothes that flow with the wind when he walks or runs. He is a short gremlin and bears a staff and a spear when fighting.

Druid Backstory:

The wood elves of the Autumn Grove live in the wilderness, far from the cities and towns of the human races. They believe that all of nature can be destroyed in the wake of human greed and folly. Some elves, including Sarsaparilla, believe that they are the only hope for the future of the natural world. Sarsaparilla, however, is not a typical elf. She is a hermit and a recluse and is often seen as crazy by other elves. She is also the only elf known to have a spirit animal.

Personality:

Sarsaparilla is the first to tell you how other people see her. She’s believes that the people who believe she’s crazy are crazy, and the people who don’t are crazy. She has no interest in making friends and is constantly travelling throughout the kingdom of Grabisco, preaching the great and powerful Jabajaba. She knows that she is on a quest that is bigger than herself, and although she has seen many setbacks, she will not stop until she has finished her mission.

Appearance:

Sarsaparilla has a very odd appearance. She has long, silver-blonde hair and is very pale, more so than her wood elf kin. She has dark circles under her eyes, and she constantly looks as if she hasn’t slept in days. She wears loose-fitting robes and at all times carries a small satchel with a variety of useful herbs and potions.

Start of Character:

Sarsaparilla has travelled to Grabisco to spread the word of Jabajaba. She has traveled all the way from the Autumn Grove in the Sussurian Jungle to spread the word of Jabajaba and to learn the truth about him. Although she may not realize it, she is on a quest to save the entire world.

Druid Backstory:

Aonara grew up in a family of druids who tended to the needs of their community. They were respected in the village, so much so that when Aonara was a student in her elementa school, she was chosen to be an initiate druid of the Order of the Tenfold Leaf. She was ecstatic, and for the next several years, she studied healing and the ways of nature, eventually becoming a full-fledged druid.

She traveled throughout the continent, tending to the needs of the common folk. Now she has returned to the village where she was raised, and is in charge of the local chapter of the Order of the Tenfold Leaf. It’s her turn to teach, and lesson number one is always to treat everyone with kindness and respect.

She was a curious young elf and found herself wandering off to explore the rest of the realm. It was on one of her family’s excursions that she was captured and sold into a life of slavery. Her master was a cruel man, but she felt that she had to put up with the abuse and the boredom.

She prayed to the Nature Spirits and begged them to give her a way to escape. The chance came when her master’s daughter fell ill. Vani helped to care for the girl with the aid of a traveling healer.

As a reward for her assistance, the king granted her her freedom, allowing her to return to her druidic life.
