Simkin Greenwood grew up in Dunfarthing, a small halfling village in Azuras. His dad Tobbin worked the fields and his mum Rosie was the village herbalist, she was the one who first taught Simkin which plants could heal and which ones could hurt. He had an older sister, Milla, who was always louder and bolder than him, dragging him to every festival and drinking night whether he wanted to go or not. It was a good life, simple and quiet, the way halfling life tends to be. Then one season a fire tore through the edge of the village and took out a good chunk of the woodland around it. Nobody ever really figured out who started it, but most reckoned it was outsiders who didn't care what they burned. Something changed in Simkin after that. He stopped wanting to be around people much and started spending more and more time in the forest, learning to live off it, talking to it almost. These days he keeps to himself mostly, wandering the forests of Azuras, looking after the land and the animals in it. Every now and then he'll show up at a settlement to trade potions for whatever he needs, then disappear back into the trees.
