This week’s character presents an interesting conundrum
from a background perspective, two actually. The first is he’s raised in an
elven homeland, but on the elven home land chart he rolled a non-elven town or
village. How can you be from an elven homeland but not from an elven town? The
second is his drawback being race. How can one be uncomfortable around others
not his race when he is basically a bastard half breed? Does he not trust
anyone who isn’t an elf or a human? Or does he truly not trust any of his
parent races and only feel comfortable around other half-elves? We’ve gotta lot
of work cut out for us so let’s see what we can come up with.

when you won a competition. This might have been a martial contest of arms, a
showing of apprentice magicians, high stakes gambling, or something mundane

Influential
Associate:[The Fool] One of your close associates was a clown who mocked
propriety and custom, instead engaging in wild and somewhat random actions from
time to time. After a while, you learned that there was simple wisdom to this
foolery—a careless worldview that taught you how to cast off concern.

Leader.

understanding of what true freedom and power is. The fact is, you enjoyed your

presented itself. Many people know of your misdeed, and they also realize your
complete lack of remorse.

time putting faith or trust in those of races different from your own.
