[QUOTE="The Rolling Man, post: 4101677, member: 24451"] My basic idea for my Salsham'ai is that he grew up in Little Thalsa in the port city of Llaza. He always like to go down to the dock area and speak to the travelers about distant lands. The docks were a more dangerous area than the beloved treetop of Little Thalsa but all the wonderful stories made it worth it. Eventually, wanderlust took over and he started to travel the lands. He visited, amongst other things, little colonies of his own people. In one such colony, near the town of Cormondal, the treefolk had trouble with local farmers who had started to excessively hunt game, gather fruit and mushroom and cut lumber in their forest. This was caused by a drought (or flood ... I'm not sure what kind of region this is) that destroyed most of the farmers' crop. Being familiar with human culture, he helped the local Vashti come up with a peaceful trade and cooperation agreement between the two groups. Impressed with his talents, the Vashti invited him to stay in Cormondal and help her with her good works. He did so for a while before wanderlust took him again and he left to explore other regions. Also, could you give us a few more details on your shaman class ? I might go that way since we're gonna have another druid in the group. Or maybe I could play a variant bard with some druid powers as presented in the SRD (but you lose bardic knowledge and all the inspire [I]something[/I]). Edit: I just realized that my draft of a background works pretty well with Dirt's. Funny thing, I wasn't even trying to do that. [/QUOTE]
