History

Chance never knew his parents. He grew up in the forests under the tutelage of an old Ranger known as "Thistle" -- a former adventurer who had grown too old for the road. His teacher told him that his parents both died when Chance was too young to rememeber and that his father was a simple farmer.

Chance grew up to display unusual feats of quickness and balance. He was also known for his keen perception, especially his crystal clear vision. There being many bandits roaming the forest, Chance learned quickly to track and hide from these roving butchers.

Soon enough, he was able to make money guiding visitors and caravans through the Northern forest -- hiding them from the roving bandits and getting them safely to their destinations.

Background

One day when Chance was off guiding a local merchant through the forest, the raider band under a bandit chieftan known as "One-Eye" ambushed and killed Thistle. Upon returning, Chance turned to his warrior skills. He tracked down and killed many of the original band and made a life-long enemy of the bandits led by "One-Eye".

Into his adulthood, Chance now works to keep the forests safe, guide travelers and hunt down renegade bandits in his area.
