HP 0/22 - Killed!With a couple of cuts, vulpa sliced open the grimacing toad in front of her. It laughed forlornly as it thudded face-first into the mud. Meanwhile, Bekter did the same thing to the other - with two swipes of his claws, the Giggling Toad was no more. With that, the combat was over.
The party gains 30xp.
"Now the frogs had been croaked maybe the shapes watchin' had learned a little respect. The four adventurers felt the Memory shift in their mind, liek silent whispers in the dark. When the old man wandered down to pick a single Mirkblossom the monsters watching did nothing but giggle angrily. Now the party was free to loot the chest, If they so wanted. Elerous, looking round, saw a huge old stone gate blockin' the way. The stone wall had blocked their sight of it, but the thing looked pretty solid. A sigil, a curiously blue thing, adorned the old mossy rock like a tattoo on a titan."With the monsters dead, there might be parts to harvest. Parts might be brewed, or something useful might be taken into town to be utilised in items, or maybe even eaten - though it must be recommended that you'd cook it first. The monsters watching you fro mthe swamps don't see meager to attack again after that little showing, but they might get their confidence back eventually.

Vulpa Edge (sjn9876)
Gender: Female
Race: Beastkin
Description: Vira is a fox beastkin, born on a small island on the edges of the world. Her tribe had little to no civilisation, and they had no names to call each other by.
Then, in her 15th summer, a ship arrived on the island. Human slavers, searching for exotic merchandise. The islanders stood little chance against the lead and steel of the invaders, and the young cub was captured even as her parents were slaughtered before her. She lay in the hold for almost a month then, treated as an animal, thrown raw meat in the darkness and taunted from above.
One day, as a chink of light shone between the deck planks, the hatch swung open. It seared the eyes of the girl, and she was dragged to the captain's cabin. The men jeered her as she walked, congratulating her on being picked for 'training.' They bathed her roughly, and as they shut the door of the cabin behind her she looked in horror upon the corpulent captain. He turned to her, and pushed himself against her, hands removing what little rags she still wore. As he did, her hands found his belt, and there, the handle of a pistol. A gunshot echoed around the room, and when the sailors ran into the room they found the beastkin wrapped in the captain's spare coat, his hat upon her head. The first few to charge were met with either a blade or a bullet, and the last few men were thrown into the hold to take the place of her kin that still remained.
With nothing to return to at her home, the cub and her kin set sail blindly. By luck they stumbled upon a port, and here, using what little of the common tongue she had picked up, she found that there was a bounty on the slaver's heads and ship. She turned this in, and claiming the gold, gave it to the others with her. Leaving them, she began to wander the civilised lands, looking for a new place to call home.
The vixen received her name in a tavern near that first port one evening, upon telling her story to a number of travelers. they called her 'the fox girl from the edge,' and a scholar in the corner suggested Vulpa as her name. It settled in her mind, and from then on she used this. She also heard another tale in the tavern - that the ship she had returned, fresh refitted and rechristened, was looking for crew.
A pawprint signed the papers as with her clipped language she asked the new captain for a job. On the sea she proved her worth swiftly, rising to first mate in the space of a few years. In these years she met often with her captain, who told her of the Yggdrasil, and the mysteries held within.
It was during one such meeting when pirates struck. Rushing to deck, Vulpa on his heel, the captain was greeted with a muzzle flash. Another echoed from behind him as is killer fell, and Vulpa watched him bleed out in her arms, crimson staining her russet fur. As he his last breath faded, she let his body fall flat, and picked from his head his cap. Placing such a hat on her head for the second time, she stood amidst the carnage, and with an animal cry that caused the humans to freeze, she charged into the fray.
Another two years passed until Vulpa finally saw the Yggdrasil up close. Serving in the navy, the first beastkin and the first female captain to do so, a fell storm battered her ship. It carried her for three painful days, ever closer to the world tree. On the final day, the winds broke the ship against the rocks. Rocks which on closer examination were revealed to be bricks, older than humanity itself. She looked up from where she lay prone on the sand, her crew drowned and her ship destroyed, and saw a tower of bark before her.
The only way forward that occurred to her was up.
