(He wears gold-rimmed reading glasses when reading or writing in his journal, but can get along fine without them by squinting.) His last vacation included getting a degree from the Ignes School of Illusion at the Redhurst Academy of Magic, lasting several years, and he wears a signet ring bearing the school's crest as a souvenir.Baeril is a chubby 71-year-old gnome, with a significant potbelly: He is 3' 5" tall and weighs 48 pounds. He has an unruly mop of curly blonde hair, bright green eyes and round apple cheeks. His traveling wardrobe includes a pair of leather shorts with built-in suspenders known as "lederhosen" in Gnomish and which are embroidered with mountain flowers on the waist. Beneath that he wears an elegant white shirt with pearl buttons, although he often throws on a heavy green woolen sweater atop his outfit along with a matching green woolen cloak. He wears green woolen knee socks and what he calls "sensible walking shoes," but which most would consider to be heavyweight leather hiking boots. Topping the entire outfit off is a heavy velour hat dyed a dark red with a rabbit fur brush above his left ear. When possible, he has added small souvenir pins from the places he has visited to his hat, which jingle very softly when he walks. His club is a sturdy walking stick, with a leather thong looped through the top as a wrist strap and shod at its tip with a steel point.Baeril knows a little bit about everything, but is insatiably curious about the outside world, asking questions and scribbling in his journal. He remains sunny and cheerful in almost all circumstances, although he hates missing a meal, and hunger is one of the few things that will make a dent in his mood.He sometimes smokes an elaborately carved Meerschaum pipe. He has a habit of singing softly to himself in a strange fashion he calls "yodeling."His familiar is a small thrush named Half-Penny who is typically found riding along on Baeril's shoulder, his hat or the top of his walking stick. Half-Penny speaks Gnomish, but typically only speaks to her master.Baeril Nebehed Callad Segerf Wanderwild Underhill is currently just known as Baeril Underhill for the most part. Nebehed was the name his father gave him when he was born, Callad was the name given to him by his mother and Baeril was the name he gave himself when he came of age. When he began his vacations, he picked up the name Segerf, and when he attended Redhurst, he went by the name Segerf Wanderwild. He's currently thinking about picking up a new name and trusts that Garl Glittergold will drop inspiration into his lap on his newest adventure.Baeril UnderhillNeutral Good male gnome illusionist 1Strength: 10Dexterity: 12 (+1)Constitution: 12 (+1)Intelligence: 16 (+3)Wisdom: 10Charisma: 14 (+2)Hit Points: 8Armor Class: 11 (10 flat-footed, 10 touch)Base Attack: +0Club: +0 melee (1d4, x2)Dagger: +0 melee (1d3, 19-20)Illusionist spells prepared: 0 (3+1): daze, detect magic, ghost sound, mage hand; 1 (2+1): color spray, magic missile, shieldSaving Throws: Fortitude +1, Reflex +1, Will +2Feats: Alertness (when familiar is within arm's reach), Scribe Scroll, ToughnessSkills: Concentration 5 (4 + 1), Craft (Alchemy) 5 (0 + 3 + 2), Knowledge (Arcana) 7 (4 + 3), Knowledge (History) 7 (4 + 3), Listen 2 (0 + 0 + 2), Perform (Sing) 4 (2 + 2), Spellcraft 7 (4 + 3)Languages: Gnomish, Common, Draconic, Dwarven, GoblinEquipment: backpack, bedroll, candle (3), chalk, flint and steel, holy symbol (Garl Glittergold) (wooden), inkpen, ink (1 oz.), journal, lantern (hooded), Meerschaum pipe, oil, rations (trail) (7 days), signet ring (Redhurst), spell component pouch, traveler's outfit, waterskinWeapons and armor: antler-handled dagger, walking stick (club)Wealth:Spellbook: 0 - arcane mark, dancing lights, daze, detect magic, detect poison, flare, ghost sound, light, mage hand, mending, message, open/close, prestidigitation, ray of frost, read magic, resistance; 1 - color spray, disguise self, magic missile, shield, silent image, sleep---With your indulgence, he'd pick up bard at 2nd level, then gnome paragon for three levels, and then most likely back to illusionist. (Although matching levels of beguiler with his illusionist levels would be tempting).</blockquote>
