You grew up on the fringes of your settlement, spending more time in the wilderness beyond than in the safety of your own homestead. In your youth, you came to love the serenity of rugged nature over the clamor of frivolous settled life. You are more at home with the wolves and the elk than with nobles and debutants. In your early adulthood, you made the decision to leave civilization completely in exchange for a life in the wilds. Now, you defend your heartland from supernatural monstrosities that threaten to upset the balance of nature, and from the cruelties of careless hunters or loggers who regard the natural cycle of life with disrespectful indifference. | You grew up on the fringes of your settlement, spending more time in the wilderness beyond than in the safety of your own homestead.

As you are more at home in the wilderness than in civilization, you must determine how you intend to survive on your own merits.

Maybe you tap into the Primal Source, using magic to enhance your physical capabilities and to speak with the animals whose home you share. | As you are more at home in the wilderness than in civilization, you must determine how you intend to survive on your own merits.
