As far as he's concerned Perengrine's life began in a sack. Saved from an unfortunate appointment with the Hag of Sellen Falls by a group of Dwarven Pathfinders, Perengrine was deposited with the Church of Iomedae in Absalom when their boat returned. He's kept in loose contact with them, listening to their adventures, and it's helped him stave off his wanderlust while he continues his novitae.

As young boys do, he idolized their tales of heroics. Growing up in the care of the Paladins of the Inheritor certainly didn't discourage him. Eventually, he became a Knight-novice in service of Iomedae, stationed with the Pathfinder Society Grand Lodge. An odd pairing, at first glance, but stranger things have happened. Ostensibly he is there to research his new blooming talents for the divine, and in truth they've given him some notoriety among the society. In practice, Perengrine serves as an unofficial recruiter for the Inheritor, encouraging new pathfinders and their rescued charges to consider the work of the just and good.

Older than most novices, he's yet to be ordained a Paladin, and so is much more approachable (and less likely to demand satisfaction if upset). His martial prowess is adequate although he still bears the stiffened hip from a lance injury (Sir Pendelton swears the lance jumped in his hand, and observers agreed it was a strange hit) which has yet to heal.

Meanwhile his scholarship is exceptional, in particular his translation of Hemet's "On Dragons", published by the society is considered the current authoritative work, owing it's fame to his precision and scrupulous cross referencing, as well as his excellent use of the Draconic language to illustrate exactly how to best plead for your lives and your companions lives should you encounter such a beast.

Outside of his role as a novice or librarian he speaks with a quiet certainty that many find refreshing. His demeanor is friendly, open, and he lacks the usual cynicism that normally sours the bureaucracy of the lodge. His faith is the easy sort, comfortable and deep. At the start of the Day of Light, Peregrine was in the Library.

I'm a frequent poster, although I'm new to paizo.com I've been posting on other forums for over a decade.

Peregrine looks up to the Dwarven Pathfinder group "The Dwarven Mug". Consisting of Grunyar, Harsk, Ingra, Kotri the Mug is a Cleric/Cleric/Fighter/Rogue group of 7th level problem solvers. They saved his life, and he's become a regular when they make landfall at the Silver Flagon inn to listen to their boasts to the Local Bard Tanner and any patrons.

[spoiler=Unknown Friend:]
The Elven Crusader who healed Peregrine after his wound in lance training Merisiel The Greensword has always felt she somehow let the young man down, and has looked out for him quietly ever since, as one might care for a small child or stray pet. He's a flicker in her long life, but should he need intervention she'd grant it.d

Peregrine hasn't made many enemies, but the few he has are unfortunately powerful. His work in the Society has brought him to the attention of a Cleric of Asmodeus, Simon Bellmount, who views Peregrines natural talents as a potentially valuable tool for his Dark prince. Sadly, while Peregrine suspects Simon is not to be trusted, the old man has been patiently working to convince the Novice that his views on Order have merit. As a member of the Dark Prince's Clergy, Simon has of course reported quit a bit of Peregrine's unusual talents to his church superiors.

The hag of Ill Ice was a covenmate of the Hag of Sellen Falls, and will surely take revenge on all the escaped morsels should she find them. Unfortunately for Peregrine, word has traveled through the network of spies friendly to the dark fey (Bard Tanner being employed to keep them informed of the comings and goings of the Dwarven Mug), and all she needs to make his life miserable is a way to Absalom.

Peregrine reports within the church of Iomedae to his Knight, Sir Ribald, an older Gippli who despite his age and infirmity still remains a competent drill sergeant.

Within the Society, Peregrine reports directly to the Maester of the Stacks, a severe female gnomish wizard named Lini who he addresses by title alone. She's a strict taskmistress, but not unkind.
