Cailean's Bow (+1 longbow), 40 fire arrows, 80 arrows +1
Cailean's Amulet - Given to him by his mother, it casts Selûne's Mooncloak while equipped. This creates an aura of moonlight around the wearer who gains a +1 to saving throws versus spells and effects dealing with shadows and darkness.
Personality:A natural risk-taker with a good heart and a strong sense of loyalty towards family and friends, Cailean also had an unfortunate tendency towards impulsiveness coupled with a weakness for the occasional practical joke. After months on the run, however, he had become somewhat withdrawn and wary of others, a little fearful of letting himself be manipulated and taken advantage of again.
Romance Details:Cailean will romance females of any race and any class except Bounty Hunters. Charisma, intelligence and wisdom must be at least 7.
The romance is broken into two distinct parts. The dividing line between the two parts is the completion of his quest. In the first part of the romance, the PC will have to make all the moves and initiate all conversation. PC init LTs will begin shortly after picking up Cailean. The PC init LTs will have the option ability of the PC init flirts. The PC would have a menu of conversation choices like so:
1.Ask Cailean about Masalina.
2.Ask Cailean about growing up near Riatavin.
3.Ask Cailean about being a Ranger.
4.Ask Cailean about his parents.
So if you pick "Ask Cailean about his parents" you and he have a short chat about them...maybe learn their names and what they do. The next time you talk to him you'll get something like:
1.Ask Cailean about Masalina
2.Ask Cailean about growing up near Riatavin
3.Ask Cailean about being a Ranger
4.So, how did a Priestess of Selûne from <wherever> and an elvish fighter from <someplace else> end up meeting and falling in love?
Non-romance details:Non-romance would run a similar course where the PC would have to initiate conversations before the completion of Cailean's quest and Cailean would initiate conversations after.
Brief Bio:Cailean had a relatively carefree childhood, the only child of a human mother and elven father. Approaching adulthood, he was allowed to go adventuring with his Aunt Leandra, a veteran ranger in order to hone his skills as an archer. After his Aunt decided to retire, Cailean returned home to his village to ponder his future and became infatuated with a childhood companion,Masalina, who had matured into a beautiful young woman who was not above using her feminine wiles to get whatever she wanted. Cailean turned a blind eye to the unsavory rumors that swirled around her and attributed the talk to jealousy and sour grapes. Eventually, however, he began to feel uneasy with some of the things Masalina persuaded him to do, the least of which was stroll through the streets fully armed (she was very jumpy, always claiming there was someone in the shadows). In due course, events conspired against Cailean and he was forced to flee for his life, having been set up by Masalina for a crime he didn't commit: she had unflinchingly used him to further her own nefarious schemes.
Cailean made his way to his Aunt Leandra, taking to the forest and avoiding the main roads when he could help it. Sometimes when hiding, he is able to overhear travelers excitedly relish the latest gossip Masalina had been spreading about him. Cailean felt sick as he listened to the tales that seemingly grew more fantastic every day. His Aunt agreed to send a note to an old friend in Athkatla; he had a number of contacts that may be able help Cailean in clearing his name. As for Masalina herself, she was making her way to Athkatla as well under the guise of an innocent starting her life anew; nothing could have been further from the truth and she began to surround herself with thugs who would do her bidding. Cailean watched from a distance as she became more hungry for money and for power; she began to chafe at the role of an innocent betrayed and wanted some credit for the deals she arranged.
