Basic Information

  • The little satyr who is never respected but (usually) determined.

  • Description

    Standing at four feet even, this cherubic satyr looks slightly comical wearing a dull gambeson and bronze chain mail. His dragon helmet lists slightly on his head, barely kept in place by small nubs of horns. He manages to keep his large shield steady wields a six foot spear comfortably. He is oddly soft looking despite his fighter's getup, with overly large grey eyes and wiry hair.

    Sounds like: Martin Steene with a slight head cold.

    Smells like: A handful of pennies dropped in frozen mud.

  • Special Qualities

    Iron Intolerance- The magnetic and chemical properties of iron are anathema to faerie. Prolonged contact burns flesh and creates angry, bleeding rashes. Even without direct skin contact, the ferrous quality causes a vertigo-like sensation. [-1 die size when in contact with iron; prolonged contact deals 1 HP damage per day and cannot heal naturally while touching iron.]

    Fae Speech- Since the faerie were originally concieved from the minds of humanity, they have an intuitive grasp on language, and can understand any tongue spoken and are understood by any creature that can speak. This confers no ability to read or write said languages, and Isto is, incidentally, illiterate.

    Warrior (Title: Wildling) 1

    Alignment: Neutral
    Isto pays some homage to the beatific and mischievious Divine Mother Frej, but largely makes his decisions around what he finds useful rather than what is right.

    Strength 13 [+1]
    Agility 13 [+1]
    Stamina 9 [0]
    Personality 8 [-1]
    Intelligence 9 [0]
    Luck 16 [+2]

    Notes: Lean and athletic (good Str and Agi, average Sta), but has tenuous personal magnetism and comes across as annoying and provincial when he finally gets the center of attention (average Int, poor Per). Despite his interpersonal failings, he seems to have a knack for avoiding danger and capitalizing on opportunities. Blessed by Frej, perhaps? (great Luck).
