| Oramail, Ranger 5
Born in the forest of Lethyr, raised near the village of Yeshelmaar; Oramail was raised on the teachings of his father. In principle the teachings were easy, but as with most things in life; they were hard to practice.
Do not let false words or false deeds come escape you. Few in the world respect those who cannot control their own actions.
No life is less valuable than another, protect those who cannot protect themselves. Likewise, do not throw your own life away.
Thank the gods and the spirits when you take a life while hunting. The animal has given his life to sustain your own, it is to be honored.
Enjoy life, laugh often; but know when it is time to be serious. Often, a simple laugh can soften a blow, yet it can also open a long closed wound.
Oramail had yet to break one of his father's teachings, and as his father had promised, his life was rich and full for it. He was rapidly becoming an excellent hunter and tracker. He was stealthy even for his race. Often, his trade would bring him into contact with caravans or travelers. He rarely found a group who did not welcome his presence, either for his bow or his heartfelt laughter.
He spent much of his time escorting caravans. It was something of a game to him. He would see how close he could get without them noticing him. He would test how proficient he had became in combat by attacking creatures or foes that were in the caravan's way. More than once he had potentially saved a life. It didn't matter that the caravan didn't know. His gods knew.
He worshipped two gods above all others. Melora for the beauty of the wilderness. Sehanine for her teachings. He always seemed to have a hard time explaining how the two were connected, even though the connection was clear in his mind. The wilderness sustained him, and he thrived in it. His own goals and destiny were placed in his own hands with Sehanine. He was allowed to protect nature and his wilderness, yet could learn about new things, venture to new places. To Oramail, the two gods were sisters.
Overall, Oramail is a cheerful, self-assuring, open-minded ranger. He loves to track and hunt. He is very patient from his years of hunting and rather adaptable. He has no fear of laws or rules, as his own morals guide him and would be happy to spend the rest of his many days protecting those things he cares about: people and the wilds.
