[sblock=Story]At just under 3' tall, there is little of Mr. Aldershot that attracts notice. were his hair ands beard not grey, he might pass for a child, his taught skin and vibrant eyes revelling in youth, in enjoying the light of the sun and the smell of the fresh morning air.
Mr. Aldershot is not a normal cleric. For one thing, he is not especially religious. He does feel an obligation to nature, however, and so far, it seems, nature has rewarded him. When he meditates, he focuses his mind on the scents in the air, on the feel of the roots beneath his bare feet. He wants to understand this connection better; he feels it would help everyone. He even tested his belief for a few years, living with gnomes (they didn't scrub their fingernails clean before eating, but otherwise had very good hygiene and seemed to possess a natural rapport with animals) and, briefly, with a mated pair of centaurs until they foaled in the spring. A connection with nature does not come easily to Mr. Aldershot, but he believes that with discipline he can improve it, and make something better of himself.
Self improvement is key, you see. He's always said so. He does not want to be ostentatious, but he does want to be noticed. Someday, someone will see him for what he is. All nature is already on board with that plan. It's only the stubborn blindness of his fellow sentients that prevents him from achieving his purpose.
