Alfred Windbottom's page

60 years old; 3' 8" tall; 37 lbs;

Surprisingly serious for a gnome, Alf has learned since the disaster in Katapesh how to turn pain into a positive force in ones life, and manages to retain a fair bit of lightness in his outlook on life, though he takes no mercy on those who threaten what he holds dear, and whoever caused the downfall of Katapesh can expect a very angry gnome to come visiting one of these days.

Spending his early childhood in Kelmarane, Alf had been visiting relatives in Yavipho when news came of the destruction of his hometown. Alf was devastated when he heard the news, and out of concern for his well being, his uncle suggested he join the local druid circle to receive training to protect the region from the ever problematic gnolls, as well as to perhaps eventually be strong enough to restore his hometown to what it once was. His father, who managed to live long enough to reach Yavipho after barely escaping the carnage, died after giving the news and leaving his armor to Alf to to try to reclaim their home. One day while in Solku after chasing down some gnolls, he heard of a caravan heading out to reclaim Kelmarane. At this news, Alf immediately sought out the caravan master to sign up, eager for the chance to reclaim his home.

Special Abilities
Darkvision 60’
Mindless No Intelligence score, and immunity to all mind affecting effects (charms, compulsions, morale effects,
patterns, and phantasms). In spite of this, vermin companions may learn one trick, plus additional bonus tricks as noted on Table 3–8: Animal Companion Base Statistics. If a vermin animal companion gains an ability score increase (at 4 Hit Dice, 8 Hit Dice, and so on), the druid can apply this increase to the companion’s Intelligence, changing it from — to 1, at which point the companion loses the mindless quality and is able to know up to 3 tricks per point of Intelligence, plus the additional bonus tricks, as noted on Table 3–8 in the Core Rulebook. Vermin companions have no skill points or feats as long as they have the mindless quality.
Grab (Ex) If a creature with this special attack hits with the indicated attack (usually a claw or bite attack), it deals normal damage and attempts to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity.
Unless otherwise noted, grab works only against opponents at least one size category smaller than the
creature. The creature has the option to conduct the grapple normally, or simply use the part of its body it
used in the grab to hold the opponent. If it chooses to do the latter, it takes a –20 penalty on its CMB check to make and maintain the grapple, but does not gain the grappled condition itself. A successful hold does not
deal any extra damage unless the creature also has the constrict special attack. If the creature does not constrict,
each successful grapple check it makes during successive rounds automatically deals the damage indicated for the attack that established the hold. Otherwise, it deals constriction damage as well (the amount is given in the
creature’s descriptive text).
Creatures with the grab special attack receive a +4 bonus on combat maneuver checks made to start and
maintain a grapple.
Poison (Ex) Sting—injury; save Fort DC 11; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect 1 Strength damage; cure 1 save. The save DC is Constitutuion-based.
Tremorsense 30’ (Ex) A creature with tremorsense is sensitive to vibrations in the ground and can automatically pinpoint the location of anything that is in contact with the ground. Aquatic creatures with tremorsense can also sense the location of creatures moving through water.
