About Thrand Prymlea

Description
Height: 6 ft 0 in, Weight: 185 lbs
Sir Thrand of Prymlea Manor, called Thrand the Demi-Paladin by some, stands as tall and muscular as a maiden's fantasy, with brownish blonde hair and blue eyes betraying his partial Suloise heritage, and a radiant smile. In battle, he wears an ornate and most intimidating great helm including a visor depicting the visage of a bearded man scowling. He wears plain scale mail over modest winter garb, at least for the time being, for he is a lowly hedge knight until he earns a higher status. His shield is painted with his own insignia - crow wings on either side of the downward pointing sword of Mayaheine, the crow being his family's heraldic animal and Mayaheine being his favored deity. He is typically polite and well-mannered, if sometimes curt with peasants or servants who try his patience, and there are those who would consider him aloof.

Background
Sir Thrand is the fifth of five brothers. He had loving parents and a generous and comfortable upbringing with plenty of skilled tutors and men-at-arms to train him, but there is little inheritance for him and now that he is grown it is time for him to leave the nest and seek his own fortune. Prymlea Manor is located in the Barony of Littleberg in the Kingdom of Furyondy, partway between the cities of Pantarn and Free Borough. It is famous for its pumpkins and its horses. Thrand left home with his arms and armor, his trusty steed, and a sense of righteousness. He loves and even likes his older brothers and would be glad to see any one of them again.

Goals
Sir Thrand wants his own lands, castle, and army. He also wants to strengthen and protect the Kingdom of Furyondy and foster greater cooperation between the good peoples of the world.

Racial Traits
Size: Humans are Medium creatures and thus receive no bonuses or penalties due to their size.
Base Speed: Humans have a base speed of 30 feet.
Bonus Feat: Humans select one extra feat at 1st level.
Social Ties: Some human societies run on complex webs of favors and loyalties that canny members can intuitively exploit with relative ease. These humans gain a +2 racial bonus on Diplomacy checks, and on any skill checks to recruit members and teams for an organization. They also add a +1 racial bonus to their Leadership scores (if they gain the Leadership feat). This racial trait replaces skilled.

Traits
Natural Born Leader: You've always found yourself in positions where others look up to you as a leader, and you can distinctly remember an event from your early childhood where you led several other children to accomplish a goal that each of you individually could not.
Benefits: All cohorts, followers, or summoned creatures under your leadership gain a +1 morale bonus on Will saves to avoid mind-affecting effects. If you ever take the Leadership feat, you gain a +1 trait bonus to your Leadership score.
Steel Skin
Benefits: You gain the ability to don or remove heavy armor in half the normal time. Additionally, you begin play with a great helm bearing the iconography of your family (this helm grants no special defensive benefits). While wearing this helm with a suit of heavy armor, you gain a +2 trait bonus on Intimidate checks.
A Sure Thing: Once per day, you gain a +2 bonus on a single attack roll against an evil-aligned creature. If the creature is not evil-aligned, this ability is wasted with no benefit.
