Here is Chan Gho, my Kitsune Bard. I'll write up the background tomorrow, but basically he grew up in the outskirts of a border town, so spent time both in the wild, and in the city. His parents were both entertainers, so his talents ran in the family. He had a bit of a wild streak however, and had no interest in joining the family troupe. This worked out for the best however, as from his early teen years, he was left behind to fend for the family business while the rest of the group took to the road. One of his favorite haunts was a secret glade in the woods where he would silently watch a young girl play. He found her songs enticing and often found himself humming them in his head as he returned home. He found her fascinating because she had no parents, like him much of the time, but she'd never had parents as far as Chan knew. Instead the animals of the forest seemed to take care of her.

Chan Gho is thin and wiry with a dark gold pelt/hair, and the amber eyes of his species. He is equally at home in the wild, and in town, and loves nothing more than a bawdy tavern, or the warmth and vibrancy of a Varisian Caravan by night. In combat, which he avoids if possible, he tends to move around a lot, tumbling, and dancing, while firing his bow, and staying out of range of big weapons. He delights in inspiring his allies, and taunting his foes.

One day as his boredom with the small town he lived in had reached it's height, he decided to pay a visit to spy on his friend in the woods. When he arrived he found her missing. As he watched her hut for signs of activity, a great storm blew up. He decided to chance things and ran for the shelter of her home. Upon arriving he found that all her belongings were gone. Apparently she had left the woods. This was a sign to him. Maybe it was time he went off on his own, and experienced life.

He returned to his home, and two days later when his parents returned from a tour, he left with their blessing. Now where to go. Maybe he'd ask around and find out where the little Wild girl, and her pet fox were. He missed her songs.
