Priest Abilities: In forested areas he may cast a variant of the 1st-level priest spell analyze balance at will. This variant works on characters, creatures, objects, or on part of the forest itself.

Combat/Tactics: A ranger and cleric, Hext� can go toe-to-toe with many beings in the Realms and at the very least walk away; which is a lot to say with the variety of warriors in Faer�n. And on the divine front, his faith in the Lady of the Forests grants him much in the way of magics. Therefore he can accomplish almost anything with his magic, and typically only uses it for aid in communion, healing, seeking information and travel.

Hext�'s species enemy is dragons of evil alignment, especially green dragons, who he dislikes the most.

Foes/Enemies: All enemies of the old Myth Drannor, and those of nature itself.

Appearance: Hext� stands 4' 10" and is largely muscled green elf from the Realms, weighing 179 pounds and bearing their cutomary greenish brown skin. His build is only comparable to that of a mountain dwarf. He has lived long, and had been weathered by time and the weather of vast locales across the multiverse, having lived in the Realms for 387 years. His hair is the shiniest silver, and is long and wind blown. Never in his life has he worn a cap, hat, or helm. In the lands of Faer�n, this silver mane has reached a legendary status. His eyes are the softest hazel, and despite the effects of almost middle age and centuries of outdoor living, they still convey a gleam of youth. He also has his cloak, which appears to be a thin bush growing off of his back.

Personality: Hext�'s is very emotional, to the point of agressiveness when protecting his friends and family, which often makes him rush in headlong when he should stay back and take in the whole picture before acting. His stance is one of ease, and gives the general conveyance of peace. Some unfortunate thugs have had the pleasure of realizing the true power of this warrior that lies beneath the gentle guise. Despite the ease in his stance, the youth in his eyes, and the weathering of his tattooed body, there is a great sense of boundless wisdom that seems to emanate from his very soul. His natural appearance puts all that see him at ease, and his demeanor is one of friendship and trust.

History: Hext�'s history is long and complicated thus it has been separated to keep his entry more concise, to see the deeds done by this great ranger-priest of the Lady of the Woods go here: The history of Hext� Thrathel.

Motivations/Goals: To live and keep the people and the wilds living in harmony, and to secure the once greatest elven city in all the Realms, so it can once again achieve greatness.

Talon (Peregrine falcon): Int 17; AC 5; MV 1, Fl 36 (B); HD 1-1; hp 7; THAC0 20; AT# 3; Dmg 1/1/1; SA dive at enemies +2 to hit; SD unlimitied ESP shared with Hext� (functions even across dimension and planes of existence); SZ S (3' wingspan); ML fearless (20); AL NG; XP 120.

Talon almost acts an animal companion or clerical familiar. He doesn't help spells or add hit points however, he is an ever-present scout, advisor, friend, courier, and, if need be, a fighter. The two are rarely ever apart, and often Sylva will get mad if he talks to Talon too much, because she cannot eavesdrop.

Talon is indeed a Peregrine Falcon, however, he is also more than that. Talon is actually Talon Silverwing, an avariel male from the Spine of the World. When he first met Hext�, he was a young lad, just learning how to walk like a mundane elf. The two of them actually fought several times, until it became apparent they had a similar mission in mind. Unfortunately, Talon perished in that mission. He was burned to ashes in a blaze of fire from a red dragon. However, Hext� prayed for his newfound friend's soul to be freed, and not suffer in the afterlife for a crime he committed some number of years ago.

In a matter of days, Hext� began to notice this falcon that had been following him. It never got close enough to let him touch it in any way. Until one day, in a particular battle, it swooped in and began harassing the creature that Hext� was fighting with the rest of the party. When all was said and done, Hext� lie, near death at the foot of a tree. Sylva was tending to him, but it was feared that Hext� would not survive. That same falcon kept coming by Hext�. Finally it perched on his wrist, and began to "scree". But that was the last Hext� had heard. As he drifted into the entrance to the after life, Talon was there, and cut him off, "It's not your time," he announced, and shoved Hext� back from death. Suddenly Hext� was back in his body, and he saw the falcon looking up dead into his eyes. In the back of his mind he heard Talon say, "Now get up, and get out of here. Do you want to live forever?" The two have been inseparable ever since.
