Roleplaying Notes

Kornast is highly concerned with the movement of the undead army, seeing it as a massive unnatural disruption to the cycle of life. He may cooperate with the party if they prove their ability to destroy the undead quickly, but he will not tolerate any lasting damage to the forest or excessive clearing of wildlands. He speaks bluntly, prioritizing the practical needs of the balance over sentiment.

Additional Info

Voice/Mannerisms Low, gravelly, and blunt. Constantly observing the natural world.
Bond The health of his home forest and the sanctity of the Wild Lands of the Flanaess.
Ideal The Balance. Nature is eternal; civilization is temporary.
Flaw Uncompromising. He will sacrifice individuals or small communities if he believes it serves the greater good of the natural world.
Info A powerful druid from the Gnarley Forest who operates to enforce the strict law of nature's balance. His knowledge of the local wilderness is unsurpassed.
Equipment Staff of twisted oak, leather armor, iron armband, pouch containing poisonous spores and mistletoe.

-Kornast favors his beast forms, especially that of a badger or a giant grizzly bear. His human form is more benign looking, simple grey and green robes, with a stave, heavy cloak and a bronze colored broach in the shape of a elm tree superimposed upon that of a [[Dazog Clan]] [[nobility]].

-Kornast works for the Grand Druid of the [[Gamboge Forest]] though he often travels along the [[Harp River]] deep into the [[Adri Forest]] and interacts with the druids and rangers of that Circle. His long time acquaintance in the Bone March region is [[Molan]] though they have not bee seen working together for some time. He is considered by his peers as something of a militant and loathes the goblin races with a passion after they needlessly destroyed crops, forests, and whole communities of demi-humans in their invasion of the Bone March. He is known to travel with and give aid to adventurers who seek to rid the March of humanoids.
