Mental characteristics
Personal history
I was born 237 a.g.l.
in a city called Strathford, it's located in the north part of the county Aniin.
I was born into a farming family, money was quite difficult to come by but we managed by.
I had a natural talent for instruments and singing so I could earn some extra money for my family.
One day when I was 18 I was given the chance to attend a local bard school and I easily could beat all other students, my senior students were quite jealous and the student at my age looked up to me.
I continued to study as a bard and when I graduated I decided to travel into the rest of the world.
I traveled far and wide in the country of Aniin and only stayed in the same place for a few days.
Then one day about 1 year ago I was camping in the woods, out of nowhere a gigantic wolf, so huge that it could've swallowed me whole. Attacked me. I held the wolf away but it was too strong for a simple bard to fend against. Then suddenly a man came to save me. He ran in slashing his sword against the wolf. The wolf bit his sword and threw it away. Then the wolf suddenly jumped the man and he singlehandedly killed the wolf. I was saved and I owned this man my life.
His name was Grath of Zilguard. He is a blood hunter who still to this day travels with me. Hide and seek is a game that both Grath and I enjoy to play. Usually, I'm the seeker and Grath the hider, he likes playing the hider but I always find him.
Now I'm 35 years old and still travel with Grath. I still owe him my life and I'm paying it off 1 day at a time.

Troubles In Fallholt
We arrived at Fallholt and were greeted by a mysterious man, he gave us a bounty on the Gnolls that had been terrorizing Fallholt and killing all the hunters.
We went into the town bar and talked to the barkeeper, he directed us to an Elf hunter. Her name was Syllee. She led us to the scene of the death of all hunters. We picked up a trail from the Gnolls leading deeper into the forest.
There we found a cave that the Gnolls lived in. Luckily for us, the Gnolls were out and we could easily scout the area.
We made a plan to ambush the Gnolls when they returned to the cave. Grath decided to hide outside the cave and stop them from getting out. The rest of us hide in the cave.
After awhile the Gnolls came back. But unlucky for us the Gnolls noticed Grath hiding outside of the cave.
The day before arriving at Fallholt
27/4 272 a.g.l
I have been traveling with Grath towards Fallholt. We heard that there was a mercenary job there. We don't know the exact job but we do know that it pays well.
Grath has been warming up to me and I think I'll be able to tell our adventures with much more engagement when he starts to act the like.
We are meeting up with some other adventurers there. I hope I'll be able to write something new about this adventure and with the new people, at the very least I will get some kind of tale from them.
But I do wonder what type of folk they are, I hope they have interesting personalities and are easy to write. We don't want to take the focus of the main characters, Grath and I.
In the worst-case scenario, I can always write them out of the story or just change them a bit. It won't hurt them and I and Grath will only profit for it. But some new characters in the stories would be good. There needs to be some change in it, can't always just be me and Grath.
Other than that it is not much else to say. I'll write some more when something happens.
