Doric

Doric kept an emotional distance to protect herself from other people and her own powers. Her training in the Circle of the Moon meant she put her trust in her natural instincts, and these hardly ever failed her. She distrusted humans, believing them to selfish and hateful. While Doric was sometimes curt, and ever the stoic, she put great value in those friends who took the time to truly earn her trust. She battled tooth and claw for what she felt was a good cause or to protect her own.

Appearance: Doric had red hair, green eyes, horns, fair skin tone, freckles, pointed ears and a tail. Her tail was prehensile and strong enough to coil around and hold onto things. She is about 5 feet tall and skinny but strong for her size. She has nice C-cup breasts. She typically dressed in green-and-brown leather armor, pants, boots, and a traveler's cloak. She never liked humans. She didn't trust them. But to those she loved, she was loving, sweet, caring and would protect them with her life.

Abilities:

— Doric, explaining her powers to Open. With a druid's wild shape ability, Doric could shapeshift into a variety of creatures, such as a mouse, cat, hawk, deer, axebeak, horse, bear, and even a snowy owlbear. Though this last form was unusual, she could do this because she believed owlbears not to be monstrosities but natural creatures, after she observed them in their lairs and caring for their chicks, and because she'd combined her bear wild shape with her snow owl nature spirit. Needless to say, the owlbear was her favored form for combat. She could maintain her wild shape for as long as 2 hours.

As a tiefling, Doric had natural resistance to flames and other forms of intense heat, so she could handle hot coals in her bare hands. Similarly, she could eat all types of "food" that was entirely inedible by most humanoids, including tree bark, coal, and ash. Any person or creature that harmed Doric would potentially become engulfed in flames.

Possesions:

Doric was bequeathed a set of vambraces and a book of druidic lore that once belonged to the wood elf druid Sunmuir.

For a time she carried a bow, but was not very skilled in its use. She later acquired a slingshot, which she mounted on her left vambrace. She wore leather armor.

Relationships:

Doric made several friends among her fellow initiates at the Emerald Enclave, a black-haired girl named Cassa; and her closest comrade, the firbolg Jowenys. A human boy Leander didn't take to Doric and became jealous of her abilities. She formed a close bond with the Enclave group's only other tiefling, Open, who served as the camp cook.

Simon Aumar tried to court Doric once, but she broke it off, claiming he made her feel sad, because of who he was rather than anything he did. However, he continued to be enamored with her and she was concerned by his low self-esteem and self-deprecation. Eventually, she allowed him to court her again.
