Name: Asperel Brighteyes Race: Kender Gender: Male Alignment: CG Deity: Whoever he's heard of Home Plane: Prime Physical Description: Asp is, in many ways, your typical kender. Bright, cheerful, and with a somewhat casual attitude to other peoples' belongings. In other ways, he's a bit of an abberation. While the average kender would love to command the awesome powers of magic, by and large they don't have the attention span. Asp does, even if one day of dedicated study in the week is about his upper limit. Born on the world of Krynn, soon after the War of the Lance, Asperel grew up in a world in flux, adapting to the return of the gods, and recovering from a great war. Not that such things really adversely impacted the young kender. If anything, a world in the midst of change represented a smorgasboard of fascinating experiences. Not that people necessarily believe all of Asp's stories about his adventures. However, this typically kender existence took a strange turn when the wizard Devlin found him ensconced in his living room leafing through one of his old spellbooks. Asp claimed he'd left his door open. Resigning himself to losing several minor trinkets, the old wizard gently shooed him out. Unfortunately, the young kender seemed to have taken it into his head that he wanted to study magic, leaving Devlin with an entusiastic disciple. In vain, he tried to explain that mastering magic required great focus and dedicated study. Not traits generally associated with kender. Asp was however very persistent. In the end, Devlin decided that the only way to convince him that magic wasn't for him was to make him sit through a few lessons. Much to his surprise, Asp stuck at it, though he often took a few days off here and there. Not one to go back on his word, Devlin continued to teach him, running through the basics with him, and building upon the spells in that original spellbook. In the end, the status quo was overturned when Devlin was recalled to the Tower of Wayreth by his order. Fond as he was of Asp, Devlin decided that the wizards of the tower probably weren't ready for a kender wizard. He therfore encouraged Asp to go out into the world and continue his studies on his own, something for which the kender required little encouragement. Asp's travels took him across much of Ansalon, with the appearance of a kender wizard occasionally giving rise to questions of just who he'd stolen his accoutrements from. On one notable occasion, somebody actually tried to claim his spellbook, but soon changed his tune when Asp shrunk him in order to prove that yes, he was actually a wizard. Thus proving that it is best not to meddle in the affairs of wizards. Even kender wizards. His fellow kender were, naturally, delighted to see one of their own practicing magic, and always an eager audience for magic tricks. The shrinking spell, following its initial demonstration, proved particularly popular. Asp was fated for wider horizons, however. Finding himself in a spot of bother in a tavern (a minor matter of somebody accusing him of stealing his purse. Patently absurd, but there's just no reasoning with some people), he nipped out the back, only to find, much to his delight, that the back opened into a completely different city on a completely different plane. Naturally, turning around was out of the question. Since then, Asp has learned a few things about the planes. The basics of portals, some of the many possible destinations, what a berk is... The Infinite Staircase, in particular, is a constant source of wonder, with doors to practically anywhere scattered across the various landings. It was his wanderings of the staircase that brought him into contact with the Planewalkers' Guild. Finding an organisation of like-minded people (from a certain perspective), Asp immediately set about joining. After all, exploring is so much more fun when you have company, and other people so often have fascinating ideas of things to do which Asp could never have come up with on his own.

While a familiar is within arm's reach, the master gains the Alertness feat. Improved Evasion (Ex): When subjected to an attack that normally allows a Reflex saving throw for half damage, a familiar takes no damage if it makes a successful saving throw and half damage even if the saving throw fails. Empathic Link (Su): The master has an empathic link with her familiar out to a distance of up to 1 mile. Only general emotional content can be communicated. Note that the low Intelligence of a low-level master's familiar limits what the creature is able to communicate or understand, and even intelligent familiars see the world differently from humans, so misunderstandings are always possible. Share Spells: Any spell the master casts on herself may also affect her familiar, if the familiar is within 5 feet. If the spell has a duration other than instantaneous, the effect ends if the familiar moves beyond 5 feet and will not affect the familiar again even if it moves within 5 feet once more. The master may cast a spell with a target of "You" on her familiar (as a touch range spell) instead of on herself. A master and her familiar can share spells even if the spells normally do not affect creatures of the familiar's type. Deliver Touch Spells (Su): If the master is 3rd level or higher, a familiar can deliver touch spells for him. If the master and the familiar are in contact at the time the master casts a touch spell, he can designate his familiar as the "toucher." The familiar can then deliver the touch spell just as the master would. As usual, if the master casts another spell before the touch is delivered, the touch spell dissipates. Speak with Master (Ex): If the master is 5th level or higher, a familiar and the master can communicate verbally as if they were using a common language. Other creatures do not understand the communication without magical help. Speak with Animals of Its Kind (Ex): If the master is 7th level or higher, a familiar can communicate with animals of approximately the same kind as itself (including dire varieties): bats with bats, cats with felines, hawks and owls and ravens with birds, lizards and snakes with reptiles, monkeys with other simians, rats with rodents, toads with amphibians, and weasels with ermines and minks. Such communication is limited by the Intelligence of the conversing creatures. Skills: Cats have a +4 racial bonus on Climb and Stealth checks. They use their Dexterity modifier instead of their Strength modifier for Climb checks. *In areas of tall grass or heavy undergrowth, the Stealth bonus rises to +8. ---------------------------------------------------------
