Subject     Outsider. (Background)

It's been many moons since me
kin're hearin from the likes o' meself.
They taked me from the mountain we call
home at a young age, a shady group
most ain't fer hearin about, and denyin what
they do be hearin just the
same. A small gatherin of our kind that received
trainin from the forest
folk, Ol Treebeard Hisself handed down such knowledge
about those from other
planes breakin out of the deepest parts of the Abyss to
be wreakin misery
among the mortal races of Ansalon. They choosed a few from all
of the races,
Outsiders to hunt down the outsiders... Trained in the ways of
nature, given
a blessing by both Zivilyn and Reorx alike, our gathering grows
smaller,
less are so willing to associate with the likes o' us... Ive
seen
generations come and go, and it be time to show the rest o' me kin
that
demons are a very real threat... From the deepest bowels of Thorbardin on
to
hidden gates and tears in the very existence of our reality, they
come...They
bring with them a terrible hunger... Ye wont be findin me much
different than
any o the rest of ya. Im a dwarf to me bones, hard as the
stone of our home. I
bring a different way of fightin them enemies that
plague us, Im a demon hunter.
A Hell Ranger, most everyone just calls us
Outsiders, much like them demons we
hunt.
