I was originally going to "prey" upon the whole feeling like an outsider thing you had going. I suppose its still there, but feeling alienated because everyone you were close to is dead vs. feeling alienated because of what/who you are are pretty different. At any rate, the original plan was this: At some point, on the road or in Sharn, you meet a stranger. There's something different about him - the way he carries himself and the cloak he is wrapped mark him as out of the ordinary. He moves with a...soft...pace, slowly, but not in a way that connotes weakness or old age. The stranger notices you, pauses, and raises his head just enough that you can glimpse his face beneath the hood of his cloak. His stare is not the usual kind though. You sense no tension, no fear.  In fact, it is almost the opposite, as if you are a welcome sight. His eyes still locked upon you, he slowly and slightly raises his arms outward and upward, with palms bared. "Well met traveler. It is good to see a child of nature. What is the calling in your heart that has lead you to this place?"*If you want to RP this, then we can stop it here and see where it goes. Otherwise I was going to propose the following, which frankly may be asssuming too much...*After some conversation, Takis feels that you are "out of place" in the world. Not truly connected with civilization, but not truly one with nature either. Takis explains to you about his order, the Gatekeepers, and then his personal quest - to seek out those beasts and beings that are unnatural and aliens to our world so balance can be restored. He speaks to you of the dire importance of this quest and the need for more to realize their connection to nature and their responsibility to it. He looks to you and sees a child of nature that, for whatever reason, has somehow become disjoined. And what better way, he suggests, to root yourself in your true nature than to fight for the very thing to which you owe your existence?Let me know what you think.</blockquote>
