__FORCETOC__<br />
==Life in Drotid==<br />
As a young shaahesk, Kassaerth never quite fit in with the others. She didn't have the same attitude, the same bloodlust, the same aggression, the same overactive ego. Killing and fighting for fun and personal advancement didn't particularly appeal to her. Like most shaahesk of her station, she took part in military training exercises and gladiator-like contests, but she never got the same enjoyment from them as most of the future soldiers. Instead, Kassaerth found fulfillment in certain portions of the exercises; the challenge of outwitting her opponent, finding the well-hidden enemy, escaping from overwhelming odds. Something of a loner, Kassaerth sought out solace in the library, looking for something more than personal power and status. In her studies, Kassaerth came across descriptions of other cultures and the other deities of Avlis. She found that the teachings of Pelar appealed to her, particularly some of the newer texts describing the recent rediscovery and return of Fundamentalism. In training, Kassaerth would volunteer for the missions geared towards individual survival, hunting, and tracking, avoiding the group and military exercises when she could. As her desire to truly experience the life of a Hunter grew, Kassaerth became even more dissatisfied with her life and yearned for a change. Finally, when she could bear it no longer, Kassaerth simply left. On a training exercise in which she was instructed to track down a kobold "escapee" near Drotid's southwestern border, Kassaerth tracked the kobold instructor to the very edge of the swamp, within view of some of T'Nanshi's soaring trees. She trapped the kobold with an Entanglement spell, and approached him to claim the medallion that would signify completion of the mission, but only a few steps away, Kassaerth turned south into the forest. Kassaerth's life as a Drotid soldier was over, and her life as a Huntress just beginning.<br />
<br />
==Learning the Old Ways==<br />
--Placeholder for details about Kassaerth's full conversion to Pelar.--<br />
<br />
<br />
==Arriving in Ferrell==<br />
On one of her typical month long hunts, Kassaerth tracked her prey through miles of the T'Nanshi forest, blissfully unaware of the political winds swirling around the land. As Kassaerth finally closed in on the panther she tracked, several elves stepped into the same clearing. Without speaking, the elves immediately drew daggers and charged. Kassaerth ran, her long legs gradually outpacing the shorter elves. For hours she ran, from tree to tree, clearing to clearing, and quickly learned to avoid contact with other locals, as arrows whizzed past her head. As the sun mercifully sank beneath the trees, Kassaerth found herself in the rolling hills of Ferrell, safe for the moment. Upon speaking to the Ferrell natives, Kassaerth learned that war had broken out between Drotid and T'Nanshi, and that a return to the woods was now impossible.<br />
<br />
==Adjusting==<br />
Kassaerth quickly scouted the hills and plains surrounding Port Eridanus, familiarizing herself with her interim home. First and foremost, Kassaerth found fertile hunting grounds, ranging from several caves in and around Port Eridanus to the Roseberry Woods and the canyons of Little Falls. Although she was, and at times still is, greeted with mistrust by the warmbloods, she grew to know, and even befriend, several over time. Still not terribly social, Kassaerth can sometimes be described as showing affection for certain warmblood friends; [[PCs:Jalya Ak'hanrye|Jalya]], [[PCs:Auryna_Ak'hanrye|Auryna]], MJ, Ace, Fletcher, Pan'na, and Delurion, among others. The local merchants grew to know that Kassaerth was willing to buy and sell necessities, always honest and rarely haggling over prices. Kassaerth's attempts at adjustment to life in Ferrell included renting a room at the Port Hole, in an attempt to fit in with the locals. After a few months, her restless nature took over as she returned to the wild, owning only what she could carry with her. Finally, some years later, Kassaerth has come to a curious peace between her solitary nature and social interaction, often spending weeks at a time on a far flung hunt, but also returning to the Port or Kitanya Hill to trade and speak with the locals.<br />
<br />
==Branching Out==<br />
Although Ferrell provided suitable hunting grounds and many challenges, Kassaerth's wandering nature made her long to again hunt in the T'Nanshi forests and Drotid swamps. Eventually, Kassaerth learned to take the form of certain forest creatures, and spent some time wandering T'Nanshi as a panther, wolf, and badger. During her travels, she learned of others capable of taking more forms. Other forms would allow her further access to lands at war with Drotid, and would add to her skills as a Huntress, so Kassaerth pursued the rumors of such abilities as vigorously as she pursued any prey. In time, Kassaerth learned the secrets of shapeshifting, and began to spend more time in T'Nanshi, particularly near Zvidureth as a wyrmling named Jaxxa. Over time, some of the residents of Zvidureth learned of Jaxxa's secret, but the protection of a number of her friends, especially including Fletcher Millstone, known as the Mayor of Zvidureth, prevented the locals from driving Jaxxa off, as long as she remained in her wyrmling form.<br />
<br />
==The War Ends==<br />
After T'Nanshi's victory over Drotid, day to day life for Kassaerth changed very slowly, and in some ways, not at all. She remained a forest druid, largely unwelcome in the forest she had come to love. Zvidureth allowed Kassaerth's presence, even in her natural shaahesk form, but some of the warmbloods continued to treat her with disdain, if not outright hostility. M'Chek, with its less forgiving and welcoming nature, remained entirely off limits. Kassaerth worked hard to show the citizens of Zvidureth and surrounding areas that she meant no harm to the Spiritland. This effort, plus T'Nanshi's natural culture of welcomeness, eventually paid off and Kassaerth was able to walk some of the lands near Zvidureth in her natural form without being accosted. Of course, she is exceedingly careful to always wear Pelarite holy robes at all times when roaming the forest in her shaahesk form, just in case.<br />
<br />
==Xira, the Huntress==<br />
Some time after the end of T'Nanshi's war with Drotid, word spread through the forest that those who follow the Old Ways would be asked to congregate at Ihnaah's grove near Blandenburg. Little information was given, but the word was carried by trusted faithful of Pelar, so Kassaerth made her way south through potentially hostile lands, slinking through the forest as a wolf, panther, and badger. Upon reaching the grove, Kassaerth shifted to her natural shaahesk form, safe in the knowledge that Pelar's faithful would not strike at her. Many others, some wearing the holy garments of Fundamentalists, others simply curious, gathered in or around the grove, all wondering the reason for the call.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
==The First Return to Drotid==<br />
During an exploration of the northeastern forests of T'Nanshi, Kassaerth realized she was very near the Drotid border. Feeling a sudden sense of homesickness, Kassaerth flew north across the border, her first time back in the swamps since she had deserted her army training many years before. The shaahesk she came across were cordial, almost welcoming. Most spoke of their hatred towards the warmbloods, seemingly intent on rebuilding Drotid's forces in order to exact revenge for the most recent defeat. For a full week, Kassaerth wandered the swamps of her homeland, rekindling long forgotten memories. Ultimately, little had changed in Drotid since those early days, including Kassaerth's reasons for leaving in the first place. With a slight wistfulness, Kassaerth crossed the southern border into T'Nanshi for the second time in her life.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
==A Place to Call Home==<br />
Eventually Kassaerth found a variety of fertile hunting grounds, and although she remained a nomadic Huntress, she began to build her own hunting platform among the trees near the Eridanian River. From this spot, she could easily travel to Zvidureth, where her presence had become tolerated, if not quite accepted, by many of the local residents. There would also be excellent hunting near the river, and a quick escape to Ferrell would be possible should the war begin anew. Kassaerth's needs are simple, so the platform would be extremely plain, just enough for shelter, food, and observing prey from above.<br />
<br />
<br />
==Companions and Animal Research==<br />
Kassaerth often travels and hunts with one or more animal companions with which she has formed a strong bond. Kassaerth typically seeks to bond with indigenous creatures wherever she travels, often studying new animals at length. She most frequently bonds with the large cats, as she finds their Hunt to most closely mirror the teachings of Old Ways, encompassing the Choice, the Stalk, and at some innate, if not religious or conscious, level, the Tribute. There are a number of creatures she seeks to tame someday, but has either not yet succeeded or not yet run across. She has made two in particular a goal: the wyverns from her youth in Drotid army training, and the hellcats she encountered while on her first Hunt after meeting Xira. After nearly a dozen fruitless and near-fatal trips into the deep tunnels of Deglos, Kassaerth finally succeeded in taming a bezekira, naming it Ember, perhaps in reference to its patches of dark red fur or to its fiery natural habitat (or both).<br />

|Companion_Submission_Status= Accepted<br />
|CTS_Code= <br />
|Type_of_Creature= Animal<br />
|Subtype_of_Creature= <br />
|Author= [[PCs:Kassaerth_Ssalaresh|Kassaerth Ssalaresh]]<br />
|Image= <br />
|Most_Compatible_Fylgia= Hawk<br />
|Most_Compatible_Notes= The magebane bat is not entirely similar to any of the typical fylgia creatures. Its hunting style consists of removing the victim's magical defenses and moving in afterward, if at all. This style is most closely matched by the giant spider, and to a lesser extent, the hawk. Physically, the bat is certainly similar to the hawk. Although the bat certainly does not have the hawk's keen eyesight, it's ability to track victims by sound is nearly as effective. Overall, although not a perfect match, the hawk comes closest when comparing both physical traits and hunting style.<br />
|Least_Compatible_Fylgia= Brown Bear<br />
|Least_Compatible_Notes= The magebane bat is virtually the complete opposite of the bear. The bear is large, direct, physical, and ferocious. This bat is small, avoids direct physical confrontation in favor of its anti-magic abilities, and is not easily riled.<br />
|Introduction= This creature looks similar to a common bat, but as its name indicates, it is quite skilled at dissolving magic. In addition, this bat is significantly tougher than common bats, and Kassaerth has noticed when the magebane bat is forced into physical combat, it is able to concentrate its strikes in vulnerable areas of the victim. Other than these traits, Kassaerth has not observed other significant differences from common forest or cave bats.<br><br><br />
The magical properties of these bats are interesting. Kassaerth has observed the bats casting spells similar to those such as dispel magic, greater dispel, and even the rare disjunction. In addition, the creature is able to, on occasion, project an anti-magic force in a small, cone-shaped area. This force appears to dissolve any type of magic it touches. Finally, the bat itself seems immune to any sort of magic, and was completely unharmed by various spells cast at it. Interestingly, the creature seems unable, or perhaps unwilling, to cast any sort of spells other than the dispels already noted.<br />
|Feeding_Habits= Kassaerth has not yet observed this bat feeding, although Kassaerth has two theories. First, the magebane bats are perhaps common cave bats that have somehow acquired a skill at dispelling magic. If this is the case, then they would most likely feed on insects, spiders, and other bugs, or perhaps even small lizards or toads. Alternately, the magebane bat is perhaps a magical creation, and its similarity to bats ends at its appearance. If true, then Kassaerth imagines that the magebane bat might actually feed on the magic which it dispels, perhaps gaining energy from the magic it destroys. Further observation and research is needed.<br />
|Disposition_Social_Habits= The bat appears to act in all other ways similar to a common cave bat. It has been spotted on several occasions cohabiting with common bats, although clearly much rarer. In a group of a dozen, one would be lucky to observe even a single magebane bat. Kassaerth has recently discovered large groups of these bats together. Perhaps this means they can successfully breed and are not purely a magical creation? Experienced woodsmen may be able to approach one of these bats without raising its ire.<br />
|Habitat= Kassaerth has found magebane bats in underground caves, and also above ground, near a shallow lake that is not quite a swamp. In both cases, the habitat is filled with plentiful insects and small lizards, locations that would be excellent hunting grounds for normal bats.<br />
|Other_Notes= After seeing many together, and always in typical bat hunting locations, Kassaerth suspects that the magebane bat species is a relative of the common cave or forest bat that has perhaps mutated or otherwise acquired its magical abilities.<br />
<br />
(( Magebane Bats are currently trainable, but become a regular bat once bonded, presumably due to shared appearance. Suggested CTS special abilities would include Mordenkainen's Disjunction, Greater Dispel, Dispel Magic, Globe of Invulnerability, Spell Resistance, Greater Spell Mantle, and/or Beholder Anti-Magic Cone. ))<br />

|Image= <br />
|Most_Compatible_Fylgia= Panther<br />
|Most_Compatible_Notes= The bezekira is certainly most similar to the panther in both appearance and hunting style.<br />
|Least_Compatible_Fylgia= Dire Rat<br />
|Least_Compatible_Notes= Bezekira are fierce predators. There is nothing further from their nature than the scurry of a rat.<br />
|Introduction= Sleek and stealthy, large and powerful, the bezekira is perhaps the most ferocious cat Tel or Kassaerth have yet come across. The hellcat, as many call it, is as large as the tiger, as stealthy as the panther, and much more dangerous than either. Most are black, some with patches of dark red. Despite its size, the bezekira is able to disappear into the slightest of shadows, becoming near invisible at will.<br />
|Feeding_Habits= Hellcats have a significant intelligence and sometimes kill for the enjoyment of it. Even those kept by devils often refuse to be fed and instead hunt for their own food.<br />
|Disposition_Social_Habits= Bezekira are cruel creatures, a product of the 9 hells to which they call their home. They take a perverse enjoyment from setting ambushes and otherwise outwitting their prey, which they may be stalking and killing in their boredom. Kassaerth has most often seen hellcats in small packs of two or three, although bezekira have also been known to travel and hunt alone.<br />
|Habitat= These cats are rarely seen outside of the planes of Hell. They can occasionally be found where the fabric between the planes is thinner using the Material Plane as a private hunting ground. Kassaerth has only encountered hellcats in the deep tunnels beneath Deglos, near the company of devils such as Erinyes and Cornugons. It is uncertain if the bezekira itself is actually a devil, or if such devils sometimes keep them as pets.<br />
|Other_Notes= (( Bezekira are currently trainable, but become a red panther once tamed, presumably due to shared appearance. They are obviously a different creature, perhaps even one that should not be compatible with CTS due to being a devil. If they are to be compatible, suggested CTS special abilities (to most closely match the standard creature's innate abilities) could include Improved Invisibility, Nightstalker's Transformation (Transmutant version of Tenser's), Greater Stoneskin, or Shadowshield. ))<br />

|Companion_Submission_Status= Accepted<br />
|CTS_Code= 205<br />
|Type_of_Creature= Magical Beast<br />
|Subtype_of_Creature= Other<br />
|Author= [[PCs:Kassaerth_Ssalaresh|Kassaerth Ssalaresh]]<br />
|Image= Grayrender.jpg<br />
|Most_Compatible_Fylgia= Brown Bear<br />
|Most_Compatible_Notes= A fully developed gray render is as large as a bear, and just as strong. The gray render's hunting style is also similar to the bear, as it relies mainly on brute force rather than stealth or finesse.<br />
|Least_Compatible_Fylgia= Hawk<br />
|Least_Compatible_Notes= The gray render does not fly, is not stealthy, and is not known for the element of surprise.<br />
|Introduction= A gray render is an enormous, physically imposing beast. Well built for hand to hand combat, it has a thick hide, bony plates protecting its head, several insect-like eyes, multiple rows of teeth, and heavily muscled shoulders and limbs. They typically walk upright, although they occasionally use their long arms to propel themselves in a type of jumping gallop. Kassaerth is uncertain what creatures are related to the gray render, or if gray renders are a natural creation at all.<br />
|Feeding_Habits= Gray renders are carnivores, eating the meat of creatures it kills.<br />
|Disposition_Social_Habits= Gray renders are often found with other creatures, and are hostile to most intruders.<br />
|Habitat= Kassaerth has only found gray renders inside caves and tunnels, although Kassaerth has not noticed a physical reason that would limit the creature to such an environment.<br />
|Other_Notes= (( OOC: There is a significant amount of lore available on gray renders from other D&D settings, but I am unsure if this is applicable to Avlis. In particular, typical gray render lore states that they are never found in packs, yet groups of gray renders do spawn in certain locations on Avlis. Most of the lore concerns the Disposition and Social Habits. If this lore is deemed acceptable, I am happy to add bits of it to this page. ))<br />

Whether to spew fire upon all who sit here<br><br />
Or to while the time away upon a pile of gold<br><br />
Those who dare to watch the demon dragon Oksir T'Narb<br><br />
Soon will feel their souls grow cold<br><br />
<br><br />
Stay and dread your short time left<br><br />
And seek ye not, a pathway out.<br><br />
None will survive the great Oksir<br><br />
The demon dragon leaves no doubt!<br><br />

<br><br />
I'm often asked, and now I'll tell<br><br />
Where does the biggest challenge dwell?<br><br />
<br><br />
Is it the Warrens, where bugbears rule?<br><br />
In an ancient crypt, a lich or ghoul?<br><br />
<br><br />
Could it be the Nightfang lair?<br><br />
Perhaps underneath a dragon's stare?<br><br />
<br><br />
But while all of these are quite unkind<br><br />
There's another place I have in mind<br><br />
<br><br />
A challenge worse than those and more<br><br />
Lies within miss Truely's store<br><br />
<br><br />
The chocolate bombes are so divine<br><br />
That just a taste makes the stars align<br><br />
<br><br />
To resist the lure of such a treat<br><br />
Is a test I simply cannot beat<br><br />

Here's the song of shadows<br><br />
More powerful than spells<br><br />
Anyone can cast one<br><br />
But few can cast them well<br><br />
<br><br />
Shadows spin around you<br><br />
They're everywhere you see<br><br />
Right out in the open<br><br />
And here right under me<br><br />
<br><br />
You might think you're safe<br><br />
In the bright light of day<br><br />
But once the night comes<br><br />
They'll come and steal you aw...<br><br />

Some say this song's too bawdy<br><br />
Some have even called it lewd<br><br />
I myself use the word risque<br><br />
Gorethites just say it's crude<br><br />
<br><br />
In any case, I'll now tell a tale<br><br />
As bold as bold can be<br><br />
Although none of them admit it now<br><br />
The tale was once passed along to me<br><br />
<br><br />
Of the night the paladins joined together<br><br />
In search of love so true<br><br />
They called it Paladin Date Night<br><br />
And dreamed of meeting someone new<br><br />
<br><br />
To break the ice, they sang some songs<br><br />
But that didn't help a thing<br><br />
Like caterwauling injured cats<br><br />
Paladins weren't meant to sing<br><br />
<br><br />
Next they started playing games<br><br />
Like tag and duck duck goose<br><br />
But when the ale and wine were poured<br><br />
Is when those old stuffed shirts cut loose<br><br />
<br><br />
Because one thing led to another<br><br />
Until some trickster pulled a prank<br><br />
She snuck behind the nearest dwarf<br><br />
And pulled his pants down with a yank<br><br />
<br><br />
Once the initial shock wore off<br><br />
Those assembled roared with laughter<br><br />
Before long it became a thing<br><br />
And few were wearing pants thereafter<br><br />
<br><br />
Remember this began as date night<br><br />
So hopped up on wine and pheremones<br><br />
Furtive glances turned into outright stares<br><br />
And the wish to jump each other's bones<br><br />
<br><br />
Now all the clothing started coming off<br><br />
Until everything was removed<br><br />
The band kicked into higher gear<br><br />
And naked paladins found their groove<br><br />
<br><br />
What happened next we're left to guess<br><br />
But no doubt it was entrancing<br><br />
I'll simply leave that image in your mind<br><br />
The sight of naked paladins dancing<br><br />

==About the SATF==<br />
<br />
The '''South Avlis Trade Federation''' (SATF) is a collection of traders, merchants, and other businesses, who work together for profit and better overall business practices. They formed under the guidance of Bill Burnham, with the initial goal to discuss market values, supplies, and business prospects. <br />
<br />
Today, they are best known for hosting the semi-annual '''Ferrell Trade Fair''', where many of the SATF merchants (and unaffiliated merchants as well) will spend a weekend making deals, buying, selling, and auctioning.<br />

'''Description''': ([[NWN:prestige class|Prestige Class]])<br />
A shifter has no form they call their own. Instead, they cloth themselves in whatever shape is most expedient at the time. While others base their identities largely on their external forms, the shifter actually comes closer to their true self through all of their transformations. Of necessity, their sense of self is based not on their outward form, but on their soul, which is truly the only constant about them. It is the inner strength of that soul that enables them to take on any shape and remain themselves within.<br />

__FORCETOC__<br />
==Life in Drotid==<br />
As a young shaahesk, Kassaerth never quite fit in with the others. She didn't have the same attitude, the same bloodlust, the same aggression, the same overactive ego. Killing and fighting for fun and personal advancement didn't particularly appeal to her. Like most shaahesk of her station, she took part in military training exercises and gladiator-like contests, but she never got the same enjoyment from them as most of the future soldiers. Instead, Kassaerth found fulfillment in certain portions of the exercises; the challenge of outwitting her opponent, finding the well-hidden enemy, escaping from overwhelming odds. Something of a loner, Kassaerth sought out solace in the library, looking for something more than personal power and status. In her studies, Kassaerth came across descriptions of other cultures and the other deities of Avlis. She found that the teachings of Pelar appealed to her, particularly some of the newer texts describing the recent rediscovery and return of Fundamentalism. In training, Kassaerth would volunteer for the missions geared towards individual survival, hunting, and tracking, avoiding the group and military exercises when she could. As her desire to truly experience the life of a Hunter grew, Kassaerth became even more dissatisfied with her life and yearned for a change. Finally, when she could bear it no longer, Kassaerth simply left. On a training exercise in which she was instructed to track down a kobold "escapee" near Drotid's southwestern border, Kassaerth tracked the kobold instructor to the very edge of the swamp, within view of some of T'Nanshi's soaring trees. She trapped the kobold with an Entanglement spell, and approached him to claim the medallion that would signify completion of the mission, but only a few steps away, Kassaerth turned south into the forest. Kassaerth's life as a Drotid soldier was over, and her life as a Huntress just beginning.<br />
<br />
==Learning the Old Ways==<br />
--Placeholder for details about Kassaerth's full conversion to Pelar.--<br />
<br />
<br />
==Arriving in Ferrell==<br />
On one of her typical month long hunts, Kassaerth tracked her prey through miles of the T'Nanshi forest, blissfully unaware of the political winds swirling around the land. As Kassaerth finally closed in on the panther she tracked, several elves stepped into the same clearing. Without speaking, the elves immediately drew daggers and charged. Kassaerth ran, her long legs gradually outpacing the shorter elves. For hours she ran, from tree to tree, clearing to clearing, and quickly learned to avoid contact with other locals, as arrows whizzed past her head. As the sun mercifully sank beneath the trees, Kassaerth found herself in the rolling hills of Ferrell, safe for the moment. Upon speaking to the Ferrell natives, Kassaerth learned that war had broken out between Drotid and T'Nanshi, and that a return to the woods was now impossible.<br />
<br />
==Adjusting==<br />
Kassaerth quickly scouted the hills and plains surrounding Port Eridanus, familiarizing herself with her interim home. First and foremost, Kassaerth found fertile hunting grounds, ranging from several caves in and around Port Eridanus to the Roseberry Woods and the canyons of Little Falls. Although she was, and at times still is, greeted with mistrust by the warmbloods, she grew to know, and even befriend, several over time. Still not terribly social, Kassaerth can sometimes be described as showing affection for certain warmblood friends; Jalya, Auryna, MJ, Ace, Fletcher, Pan'na, and Delurion, among others. The local merchants grew to know that Kassaerth was willing to buy and sell necessities, always honest and rarely haggling over prices. Kassaerth's attempts at adjustment to life in Ferrell included renting a room at the Port Hole, in an attempt to fit in with the locals. After a few months, her restless nature took over as she returned to the wild, owning only what she could carry with her. Finally, some years later, Kassaerth has come to a curious peace between her solitary nature and social interaction, often spending weeks at a time on a far flung hunt, but also returning to the Port or Kitanya Hill to trade and speak with the locals.<br />
<br />
==Branching Out==<br />
Although Ferrell provided suitable hunting grounds and many challenges, Kassaerth's wandering nature made her long to again hunt in the T'Nanshi forests and Drotid swamps. Eventually, Kassaerth learned to take the form of certain forest creatures, and spent some time wandering T'Nanshi as a panther, wolf, and badger. During her travels, she learned of others capable of taking more forms. Other forms would allow her further access to lands at war with Drotid, and would add to her skills as a Huntress, so Kassaerth pursued the rumors of such abilities as vigorously as she pursued any prey. In time, Kassaerth learned the secrets of shapeshifting, and began to spend more time in T'Nanshi, particularly near Zvidureth as a wyrmling named Jaxxa. Over time, some of the residents of Zvidureth learned of Jaxxa's secret, but the protection of a number of her friends, especially including Fletcher Millstone, known as the Mayor of Zvidureth, prevented the locals from driving Jaxxa off, as long as she remained in her wyrmling form.<br />
<br />
==The War Ends==<br />
After T'Nanshi's victory over Drotid, day to day life for Kassaerth changed very slowly, and in some ways, not at all. She remained a forest druid, largely unwelcome in the forest she had come to love. Zvidureth allowed Kassaerth's presence, even in her natural shaahesk form, but some of the warmbloods continued to treat her with disdain, if not outright hostility. M'Chek, with its less forgiving and welcoming nature, remained entirely off limits. Kassaerth worked hard to show the citizens of Zvidureth and surrounding areas that she meant no harm to the Spiritland. This effort, plus T'Nanshi's natural culture of welcomeness, eventually paid off and Kassaerth was able to walk some of the lands near Zvidureth in her natural form without being accosted. Of course, she is exceedingly careful to always wear Pelarite holy robes at all times when roaming the forest in her shaahesk form, just in case.<br />
<br />
==Xira, the Huntress==<br />
Some time after the end of T'Nanshi's war with Drotid, word spread through the forest that those who follow the Old Ways would be asked to congregate at Ihnaah's grove near Blandenburg. Little information was given, but the word was carried by trusted faithful of Pelar, so Kassaerth made her way south through potentially hostile lands, slinking through the forest as a wolf, panther, and badger. Upon reaching the grove, Kassaerth shifted to her natural shaahesk form, safe in the knowledge that Pelar's faithful would not strike at her. Many others, some wearing the holy garments of Fundamentalists, others simply curious, gathered in or around the grove, all wondering the reason for the call.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
==The First Return to Drotid==<br />
During an exploration of the northeastern forests of T'Nanshi, Kassaerth realized she was very near the Drotid border. Feeling a sudden sense of homesickness, Kassaerth flew north across the border, her first time back in the swamps since she had deserted her army training many years before. The shaahesk she came across were cordial, almost welcoming. Most spoke of their hatred towards the warmbloods, seemingly intent on rebuilding Drotid's forces in order to exact revenge for the most recent defeat. For a full week, Kassaerth wandered the swamps of her homeland, rekindling long forgotten memories. Ultimately, little had changed in Drotid since those early days, including Kassaerth's reasons for leaving in the first place. With a slight wistfulness, Kassaerth crossed the southern border into T'Nanshi for the second time in her life.<br />

Eventually Kassaerth found a variety of fertile hunting grounds, and although she remained a nomadic Huntress, she began to build her own hunting platform among the trees near the Eridanian River. From this spot, she could easily travel to Zvidureth, where her presence had become tolerated, if not quite accepted, by many of the local residents. There would also be excellent hunting near the river, and a quick escape to Ferrell would be possible should the war begin anew.

==Companions and Animal Research==<br />
Kassaerth often travels and hunts with one or more animal companions with which she has formed a strong bond. Kassaerth typically seeks to bond with indigenous creatures wherever she travels, often studying new animals at length. She most frequently bonds with the large cats, as she finds their Hunt to most closely mirror the teachings of Old Ways, encompassing the Choice, the Stalk, and at some innate, if not religious or conscious, level, the Tribute. There are a number of creatures she seeks to tame someday, but has either not yet succeeded or not yet run across. She has made two in particular a goal: the wyverns from her youth in Drotid army training, and the hellcats she encountered while on her first Hunt after meeting Xira. After nearly a dozen fruitless and near-fatal trips into the deep tunnels of Deglos, Kassaerth finally succeeded in taming a bezekira, naming it Ember, perhaps in reference to its patches of dark red fur or to its fiery natural habitat (or both).<br />

__FORCETOC__<br />
==Life in Drotid==<br />
As a young shaahesk, Kassaerth never quite fit in with the others. She didn't have the same attitude, the same bloodlust, the same aggression, the same overactive ego. Killing and fighting for fun and personal advancement didn't particularly appeal to her. Like most shaahesk of her station, she took part in military training exercises and gladiator-like contests, but she never got the same enjoyment from them as most of the future soldiers. Instead, Kassaerth found fulfillment in certain portions of the exercises; the challenge of outwitting her opponent, finding the well-hidden enemy, escaping from overwhelming odds. Something of a loner, Kassaerth sought out solace in the library, looking for something more than personal power and status. In her studies, Kassaerth came across descriptions of other cultures and the other deities of Avlis. She found that the teachings of Pelar appealed to her, particularly some of the newer texts describing the recent rediscovery and return of Fundamentalism. In training, Kassaerth would volunteer for the missions geared towards individual survival, hunting, and tracking, avoiding the group and military exercises when she could. As her desire to truly experience the life of a Hunter grew, Kassaerth became even more dissatisfied with her life and yearned for a change. Finally, when she could bear it no longer, Kassaerth simply left. On a training exercise in which she was instructed to track down a kobold "escapee" near Drotid's southwestern border, Kassaerth tracked the kobold instructor to the very edge of the swamp, within view of some of T'Nanshi's soaring trees. She trapped the kobold with an Entanglement spell, and approached him to claim the medallion that would signify completion of the mission, but only a few steps away, Kassaerth turned south into the forest. Kassaerth's life as a Drotid soldier was over, and her life as a Huntress just beginning.<br />
<br />
==Learning the Old Ways==<br />
--Placeholder for details about Kassaerth's full conversion to Pelar.--<br />
<br />
<br />
==Arriving in Ferrell==<br />
On one of her typical month long hunts, Kassaerth tracked her prey through miles of the T'Nanshi forest, blissfully unaware of the political winds swirling around the land. As Kassaerth finally closed in on the panther she tracked, several elves stepped into the same clearing. Without speaking, the elves immediately drew daggers and charged. Kassaerth ran, her long legs gradually outpacing the shorter elves. For hours she ran, from tree to tree, clearing to clearing, and quickly learned to avoid contact with other locals, as arrows whizzed past her head. As the sun mercifully sank beneath the trees, Kassaerth found herself in the rolling hills of Ferrell, safe for the moment. Upon speaking to the Ferrell natives, Kassaerth learned that war had broken out between Drotid and T'Nanshi, and that a return to the woods was now impossible.<br />
<br />
==Adjusting==<br />
Kassaerth quickly scouted the hills and plains surrounding Port Eridanus, familiarizing herself with her interim home. First and foremost, Kassaerth found fertile hunting grounds, ranging from several caves in and around Port Eridanus to the Roseberry Woods and the canyons of Little Falls. Although she was, and at times still is, greeted with mistrust by the warmbloods, she grew to know, and even befriend, several over time. Still not terribly social, Kassaerth can sometimes be described as showing affection for certain warmblood friends; Jalya, Auryna, MJ, Ace, Fletcher, Pan'na, and Delurion, among others. The local merchants grew to know that Kassaerth was willing to buy and sell necessities, always honest and rarely haggling over prices. Kassaerth's attempts at adjustment to life in Ferrell included renting a room at the Port Hole, in an attempt to fit in with the locals. After a few months, her restless nature took over as she returned to the wild, owning only what she could carry with her. Finally, some years later, Kassaerth has come to a curious peace between her solitary nature and social interaction, often spending weeks at a time on a far flung hunt, but also returning to the Port or Kitanya Hill to trade and speak with the locals.<br />
<br />
==Branching Out==<br />
Although Ferrell provided suitable hunting grounds and many challenges, Kassaerth's wandering nature made her long to again hunt in the T'Nanshi forests and Drotid swamps. Eventually, Kassaerth learned to take the form of certain forest creatures, and spent some time wandering T'Nanshi as a panther, wolf, and badger. During her travels, she learned of others capable of taking more forms. Other forms would allow her further access to lands at war with Drotid, and would add to her skills as a Huntress, so Kassaerth pursued the rumors of such abilities as vigorously as she pursued any prey. In time, Kassaerth learned the secrets of shapeshifting, and began to spend more time in T'Nanshi, particularly near Zvidureth as a wyrmling named Jaxxa. Over time, some of the residents of Zvidureth learned of Jaxxa's secret, but the protection of a number of her friends, especially including Fletcher Millstone, known as the Mayor of Zvidureth, prevented the locals from driving Jaxxa off, as long as she remained in her wyrmling form.<br />
<br />
==The War Ends==<br />
After T'Nanshi's victory over Drotid, day to day life for Kassaerth changed very slowly, and in some ways, not at all. She remained a forest druid, largely unwelcome in the forest she had come to love. Zvidureth allowed Kassaerth's presence, even in her natural shaahesk form, but some of the warmbloods continued to treat her with disdain, if not outright hostility. M'Chek, with its less forgiving and welcoming nature, remained entirely off limits. Kassaerth worked hard to show the citizens of Zvidureth and surrounding areas that she meant no harm to the Spiritland. This effort, plus T'Nanshi's natural culture of welcomeness, eventually paid off and Kassaerth was able to walk some of the lands near Zvidureth in her natural form without being accosted. Of course, she is exceedingly careful to always wear Pelarite holy robes at all times when roaming the forest in her shaahesk form, just in case.<br />
<br />
==Xira, the Huntress==<br />
Some time after the end of T'Nanshi's war with Drotid, word spread through the forest that those who follow the Old Ways would be asked to congregate at Ihnaah's grove near Blandenburg. Little information was given, but the word was carried by trusted faithful of Pelar, so Kassaerth made her way south through potentially hostile lands, slinking through the forest as a wolf, panther, and badger. Upon reaching the grove, Kassaerth shifted to her natural shaahesk form, safe in the knowledge that Pelar's faithful would not strike at her. Many others, some wearing the holy garments of Fundamentalists, others simply curious, gathered in or around the grove, all wondering the reason for the call.<br />

==The First Return to Drotid==<br />
During an exploration of the northeastern forests of T'Nanshi, Kassaerth realized she was very near the Drotid border. Feeling a sudden sense of homesickness, Kassaerth flew north across the border, her first time back in the swamps since she had deserted her army training many years before. The shaahesk she came across were cordial, almost welcoming. Most spoke of their hatred towards the warmbloods, seemingly intent on rebuilding Drotid's forces in order to exact revenge for the most recent defeat.

|Name_of_Creature= Bezekira<br />
|Companion_Submission_Status= submitted<br />
|CTS_Code= ####<br />
|Type_of_Creature= Animal<br />
|Subtype_of_Creature= Feline<br />
|Author= [[PCs:Teleniel|Teleniel]] and [[PCs:Kassaerth Ssalaresh|Kassaerth Ssalaresh]]<br />
|Image= <br />
|Most_Compatible_Fylgia= Panther<br />
|Most_Compatible_Notes= The bezekira is certainly most similar to the panther in both appearance and hunting style.<br />
|Least_Compatible_Fylgia= Dire Rat<br />
|Least_Compatible_Notes= Bezekira are fierce predators. There is nothing further from their nature than the scurry of a rat.<br />
|Introduction= Sleek and stealthy, large and powerful, the bezekira is perhaps the most ferocious cat Tel or Kassaerth have yet come across. The hellcat, as many call it, is as large as the tiger, as stealthy as the panther, and much more dangerous than either. Most are black, some with patches of dark red. Despite its size, the bezekira is able to disappear into the slightest of shadows, becoming near invisible at will.<br />
|Feeding_Habits= Hellcats have a significant intelligence and sometimes kill for the enjoyment of it. Even those kept by devils often refuse to be fed and instead hunt for their own food.<br />
|Disposition_Social_Habits= Bezekira are cruel creatures, a product of the 9 hells to which they call their home. They take a perverse enjoyment from setting ambushes and otherwise outwitting their prey, which they may be stalking and killing in their boredom. Kassaerth has most often seen hellcats in small packs of two or three, although bezekira have also been known to travel and hunt alone.<br />
|Habitat= These cats are rarely seen outside of the planes of Hell. They can occasionally be found where the fabric between the planes is thinner using the Material Plane as a private hunting ground. Kassaerth has only encountered hellcats in the deep tunnels beneath Deglos, near the company of devils such as Erinyes and Cornugons. It is uncertain if the bezekira itself is actually a devil, or if such devils sometimes keep them as pets.<br />
|Other_Notes= (( Bezekira are currently trainable, but become a red panther once tamed, presumably due to shared appearance. They are obviously a different creature, perhaps even one that should not be compatible with CTS due to being a devil. If they are to be compatible, suggested CTS special abilities (to most closely match the standard creature's innate abilities) could include Improved Invisibility, Nightstalker's Transformation (Transmutant version of Tenser's), Greater Stoneskin, or Shadowshield. ))<br />
