Biography: Jaden was raised by a human family for part of his life. At the age of 12, he was sent away from the human village into exile. Not knowing what to do, he desperately asked for help. One man was kind enough to give him shelter. This man also gave him one more thing. Six wooden logs. "What use is this!?" he asked at the time. "In time, these will be your most basic need. Without this, you will not have shelter, a way to work, or food." the man said back. Jaden cursed under his breath, not knowing the importance.

Jaden worked long and hard for his shelter. Chopping down trees for human establishments, Mining iron for simple human creations, and farming for food for the humans. In turn, he was provided a bed, food, and a home. This would anger Jaden. Humans ruining nature with their mines. Humans causing deforestation. He snapped. He chopped down trees more often, for he had a plan. He chopped more trees and would keep extra logs. This continued on for months. Finally, he had enough wood.

Jaden sliced the logs into planks, being more usable. He took iron from mining into nails and started his quest. Each night, he would sneak into his shed and nailed more and more planks. This was a slow process, but he was dedicated to it. Plank by plank, his creation formed before his very eyes. This boat would be his escape. He was ready.

A bright day came. Being sheltered for 17 years, he did not know what to expect, but he was ready. He grabbed some food and dragged his boat to the water. The second the boat was in the water, he jumped in and was off, a new start for him.

Open-Response-Questions

Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small halfling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond?

Jaden sinks into the shade of a Birch tree. The warriors take the halfing's money while laughing between each other. Jaden, being well armed, grabs the iron sword off his back and hits the first warrior, who is carrying the money, with the studded hilt of his sword. The guard falls and drops the bag of money stolen from the child. The second warrior strikes, but Jaden parries. He tries his luck and pulls his sword above his head, leaving his body open, and strikes. The guard starts to react but the iron penetrates the poorly made armor. He wishes the best for the innocence of the warriors soul and returns the sack of coins to the halfling.

Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response?

"Hello there merchant, what wares do you have in store, but I warn you, I am not wealthy" Jaden says as the merchant present various jewels, small statues, and other items. "I shall purchase the fishing pole. 50 minas".

"75 minas".

"62 minas".

"Deal. Good day to you sir".

Jaden walks away, waving back to the kind merchant.

Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?:

Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you in the common tongue, how do you respond?

Jaden becomes slightly suspicious but sets this aside. He greets the merchants and passes the village, while passing, he spots a abandoned chest with close to rotten meats and breads. He takes this and leaves.

You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?:

Jaden thinks about this, but declines. Death would be a factor in this, and he did not want to die before he restored Asulon to it's former glory. He walks near the edge of town to watch the battle.
