Introducing: Ruth, The Human Ranger

22/12/2019

For as long as she can remember Ruth has been living in the care of the reclusive witch Mrs Boor in the forest-sheltered fortress of Chimera's Keep. However, as she's come into adulthood it's felt more and more to her that Mrs Boor is in fact, living in Ruth's care. Indeed, from the moment the young archer proved able to adequately hold conversations with strangers she has been working as the Beastmaker's courier, scout, and emissary, performing all the errands that Mrs Boor is to 'busy' to accomplish herself.
From gathering peculiar supplies from the travelling merchants of Innovsfall, to warding away rangers and warriors who wander too deep into the woods, Ruth has earned quite the reputation with the locals and has often been mistaken for a witch herself. As consequence, Ruth has made very few friends compared to others around her age (or at the least, very few friends that lack feathers, scales, fur or claws).
This latest errand however appears to be a rather difficult one: one that it might prove beneficial to have allies, for once.

Introducing: Styx, The Half-Orc Bard

According to most Urphian scholars half-orcs were most likely devised aeons ago by some would-be conqueror-witch almost certainly in an attempt to combine the common or garden orc's fondness for forcefully dismantling property with human's ingenuity in the same field. However, as with most cases like these, the newly formed half-orcs probably got a bit too impatient waiting for the rest of the army to be formed and chose to test out their skills by extemporaneously razing the witch's stronghold to the ground.
Now and again however that particular human creativity comes to light strange ways, as with Styx, who in the process of smashing things with his war-band came to appreciate the noises that certain things made whilst being smashed. Styx had discovered music, and in doing so had set his course in life in a direction nobody could have expected.
With drumsticks made from the wood of an enchanted tree Styx left his war-band behind him to pursue his career as Urph's first ever and most talented half-orc bard.
