It form fits to Hal like a second layer of skin! Personality: An upper class swashbuckler, Hal is famed and desired by many upstanding nobles' daughters. Unfortunately for him, those fathers of the daughter's fear him and his swashbuckling of their young girls far more than any evil organization or creature! As such, Hal has begun to take up the holy charge of the Art with Phoenix as a knight of Mystra, in an effort to bring some honor to his person. With hope on his side and lady luck, perhaps the fathers may change their suborn minds. Plus, it allows him to go on plane-spanning adventures and to swashbuckle where non have swahbuckled before?
