Human Hunter 1 | HP 10 / 10 | AC 16 Tch 11 FF 15 | F 3 R 3 W 2

"Some training at the grounds prior to the actual games would be indeed interesting." answers Kodan to the half-orc. "Although I would much prefer to reach the Inn to see if there are rooms and perhaps wash a bit of dirt from my throat." As he finishes speaking he hears another compliment for Walks-Like-Thunder. Turning to Artis he says. "And greetings to you to Artis. I am afraid everyone here is giving 'Walks' here a swollen head. I know he is a youngster and I hoped he would not have problems in the crowd here, but this was not the problem I prepared him for!" Kodan starts to chuckle when the mammoth headbutts him hard enough to unsettle his balance and again issues a small trumpet.

Kodan almost guffaws as there is a small trumpet of protestation from his companion before continuing. "This here besides me is a mammoth. Thick of fur. Sharp of tusk. Sometimes inquisitive and often hungry. Although he is but growing, may I introduce Walks-Like-Thunder." He reaches to ruffle the fur on the head of the creature whose head is at Kodan's shoulder level.

Kodan chuckles his mirth seeming to match Darrien's as Walks-Like-Thunder plucks the candied fruit from the offering. "Watch there my new friend you also seem to have found the secret at least becoming cordial with mammoths." He turns to answer Finja. "I will follow along if you do not mind then. I am acquainted with the Sharp Inn proprietor from the past. I feel compelled to at least seek lodging there first. Also this seems to be the day to walk the city and see the sites. It looks like the population of the world is crowded in here." Kodan continues looking around with the wonder of someone who does not see the inside of a city normally.

A tall man wends his way through the crowd, his clothes and armor showing signs of a fresh arrival from outside the city. A watcher could easily follow his progress firstly because of the shaft of the polearm appearing over one shoulder from behind but the second reason is that behind him follows a small mammoth. Smaller than a horse it was obviously a young member of the species but it followed the man without lead and carrying saddlebags.

Kodan turns to his companion sidestepping to fall into line besides. "Walks-Like-Thunder; this is not as a recall. There are more people, but the attitude seems somehow more sour. I do not remember the city as well as I thought. Let us see if we can find Hrondaun's Inn. Let's forget the incident at the gates. Mayhap someone knows of the inn."

Approaching the group of armed and armored people he overhears the word. "food." and steps up. "I beg pardon, would perhaps you know of the Sharp Inn and its location? A place of fine food and safe rest. I seek some directions." while a look of polite hopefulness crosses his scarred face, behind him is a small trumpet that somehow expresses some tired frustration.


I moved which is part of the reason I had Desna on my mind.


@MordredofFairy Heh, I have been tossing up the same kinda of thing without the full SAD. But then grab the seeker oracle for trapfinding + full divine + melee with butterfly sting taking the Sphere Singer archetype for mythic.


Tidied things up. Added in a statistics block for Walks. Feed is really heavy at least the quadruped multiplier helps somewhat.


@MordredofFairy that's ok I didn't emphasize I had taken it. I can move over to Chance Encounter with a small backstory addition while still having been attacked as a child (just not the trait).


Dotting in to show continued interest. Been watching the thread.


Thanks for the extensive feedback and many good questions. I have added a statistics section to the character sheet.

There is the hyrax which is the closest relative to that family, but otherwise, I am fine with waiting until 7. The tiny size is good for getting through smaller places which only really becomes an issue at 7th.

I've given the background another draft. Kodan's family is from Old Sarkoris, he is too young of course and his family wandering the lands has bled in nomadic influences. It was a minor clan with no patron mixed with other refugees. They never joined the Mammoth Lord tribes proper and thus become more traveling nomads. Indeed none of the family would be surviving from the Opening, but the relatively few generations would leave it somewhat fresh.

Kodan has never been the Voice; he was being groomed to become it by his father. Thus the relatively social focus of a nomadic barbarian type character. With the size of Shudderwood, it still has non-corrupted fae and spirits and it was one of those in the form of Walks-Like-Thunder that found Kodan.

The Call of the Crusader found Kodan too late to join the previous Crusade. With his adulthood and bond with Walks-Like-Thunder he seeks to respond to the early exposure to demons as a child. As Kenabres is the place where the fight still continues it is there to which he has traveled. He has abandoned his potential position of Voice to take direct action, leaving his tribe with a heavy heart.


I am interested in the tank type position for a courtly hunter with a mammoth companion. Information under character link.


Works finished. Information all under name link in profile.


Here is a courtly hunter WIP. Gives some face and allows a large pet that will not get in the way.
