[QUOTE="Kaodi, post: 6093573, member: 1231"] I figure Hraln would have joined at "0th-Level" . I imagine Sozin may have joined around 1st or 2nd, though I do not know whether you would have joined before or after him. Hraln would have been from an a community where it would be extraordinary to find anyone as exotic as a fetchling. Here is the original background post (all menions of Fharlanghn can now be replaced with Desna): [sblock=Hraln's Background, First Draft]Hraln was a simple man with his heart set on seeing the world. Born on the frontier between Nyrond and the Great Kingdom of Northern Aerdy he learned first hand how difficult it could be to travel the roads during times of conflict. One always risked bandit attacks, or worse, encountering marauders. Had he not been taken under the wing of a band of roving priests of Fharlanghn, his life may have turned out very differently. With the protection of the priests, a young Hraln was able to see much of the Southeastern Flanaess. He learned how to watch his back in the wild, and became a good judge of what fellow travellers could be trusted. And when he too heard the call of the Dweller on the Horizon, the priests provided for his instruction in defence and combat, as well as the core concepts of divine magic.
