I would like to submit White Scar, an awakened mountain lion (based on the leopard) ranger.
White Scar was born to a lioness named Whisper, an animal companion to the druid Escariel Winterborn. When her cubs were born, Escariel offered to free her, but she didn't want to leave him, and asked instead for him to awaken her cubs. The cubs grew up learning the ways of nature from both their mother, and the druid.
When they reached adulthood, the cubs, still driven by their instincts to some extent, chose to go their own way. White Scar, who was at that time was called Tailchaser, had become a ranger, while his sister, Butterfly Stalker had become a druid.
Tailchaser roamed widely, even spending some time fighting at the Worldwound. It was there that he took a raking wound to the face, and when it healed, leaving the fur over it a stark white, he changed his name to White Scar.
He's had many companions in his career, most of whom find him friendly, and wryly humorous, once they get past the whole "talking mountain lion" thing. He enjoys meeting new people, and that actually adds to his wanderlust.
His nose has lead him to Ustalov, and he's heard rumors of trouble in the Shudderwood.
He'll be looking for companions before he heads in, though. He's not stupid.
I've started the character sheet - built him on 25 pts, and gave him a single +2. Other than that, I'll build him with the racial abilities of the leopard, instead of say, the abilities of the dwarf. I'll finish him tomorrow.
