After a year and a day of service the Witching Troll will teach Trickle the secret of Witch's Tears. In the course of his work Trickle came across a poisoner’s tome (no longer in his possession) that described a potent poison called Witch’s Tears.  The poisoner learned the formula for the poison (frustratingly not written down in the book) from a powerful unseelie sorcerer, a troll… [/sblock][/section][/sblock][sblock=Khirynnax][section][align=left]http://imageshack.com/a/img834/7569/soc0.png[/align]Khirynnax Skinchanger, AKA Khir Elven Druid (level 1; 0 xp) Wild Eyes, Messy Hair, Practical Leathers STR 15 (+1)  DEX 12  CON 13 (+1)  INT 9  WIS 16 (+2)  CHA 8 (-1) Max. hp: 19  Current hp: 19 Alignment: Neutral: Eliminate an unnatural menace.

Poultices and herbs (2 uses, 1 wt.) [sblock=Druid Moves] Elf:  In addition to any other attunements, the Great Forest is always considered your land. Born of the Soil:  Attuned to the Stinking Mire—when shapeshifting you may take the shape of any animal who might live in your land.  Your tell (a crown of ivy) remains no matter what shape you take. By Nature Sustained:  You don’t need to eat or drink.  If a move tells you to mark off a ration just ignore it. Spirit Tongue:  The grunts, barks, chirps, and calls of the creatures of the wild are as language to you.  You can understand any animal native to your land or akin to one whose essence you have studied.    Shapeshifter:  When you call upon the spirits to change your shape, roll+WIS. 10+ hold 3 7-9 hold 2 On a miss hold 1 in addition to whatever the GM says. You may take on the physical form of any species whose essence you have studied or who lives in your land: you and your possessions meld into a perfect copy of the species’ form.  You have any innate abilities and weaknesses of the form: claws, wings, gills, breathing water instead of air.  You still use your normal stats but some moves may be harder to trigger.  The GM will also tell you one or more moves associated with your new form.  Spend 1 hold to make that move.  Once you are out of hold you return to your natural form.  At any time, you may spend all your hold and revert to your natural form. Studied Essence:  When you spend time in contemplation of an animal spirit, you may add its species to those you can assume using shapeshifting.

I have showed Needles a secret rite of the land. *** has tasted my blood and I theirs.  We are bound by it. After a year and a day of service the Witching Troll will reveal a secret of the fae's primordial essence. Khirynnax was an outsider, too fey for the humans, too unseelie for the elves.  He didn’t care because he sensed a deeper essence, pure and powerful, that he needed to understand.  When a halfling told him there was one who could put him on the path that might lead to his understanding Khirynnax didn’t hesitate.  He made his way to the Witching Troll and readily accepted the bargain of service that the troll required as payment.
