Chikyu's page

I can change his background from close ties to willowshore urchin, which fits well with his adopted background story.

I suspect though that the recruited sorcerer pre-empts a wizard, and the way I imagine this character I don't think there's simple reworking to fix that. E.g. he could switch from wizard to witch, but at the end of the day is another "mage."

I see a third confirmation in the macros sheet.

Sweats nervously

Changes:

Home One of the more humble houses (but not impoverished) on Northridge, near W20: Mother's Coil

(It's always up-to-date on the character's profile)

Also I realized I missed the statement in the player's guide that specific Heirloom's can't be picked twice. I picked a different piece of basic equipment than the prior submission, but I suspect it still violates the spirit of it. Or is that okay since it is different?

Here is PaleDim's submission. I'm still browsing profile pics and may change that, and haven't purchased equipment yet but that can be done quickly and soon.
--------------------
I have read the Gazetteer, and have no problem with neither the “Horror and Consent” nor “About Your Family” sidebars (though there may be some interesting threads there to explore related to his background).

Heirloom chosen Two minor healing potions and an ornately carved staff handed down in his family to him, as his parents did not have any natural children. This staff is for both his Staff Nexus wizard thesis and is the subject of his arcane bond.

Home One of the more humble houses (but not impoverished or lower-class) on Northridge, near W25: The Cerulean Teahouse.

Religion Daikitsu (worships at W9: Nine Ear Shrine)
--------------------
Surrounded by scrolls and fingers perpetually stained by inks, Chikyu is an adopted son which seems to stir up rumors and gossip in town. None aside from his adoptive parents know he even is a kitsune. Mostly he just wants to be left alone to his arcane studies, so tends to be introverted and a loaner. He certainly doesn't feel he "belongs" despite growing up here. Curiously, as he gets older and at least respected for his craft, there are some in Willowshore who come to him for magic advice or input on sightings of the occult or superstitions. One such inquiry has lead to a prolonged, and deep friendship... (TODO to be worked out with DM, which will influence his Specialty Crafting choice)

He feels a magical presence in his blood, but has not determined its source. Does he come from a long line of arcane practitioners, or is there an element of fey in his blood? Perhaps something more celestial. This inspires his studies, but not being able to characterize them, he feels at odds with this part of his nature. He has a Star Orb familiar, Kukan, that he keeps near him at all times.
