Hero of the Ffolk (Moonshae)

Hero of the Ffolk was originally published in the Moonshae Isles Regional Guide and is reproduced here with permission from Baldman Games

The Ffolk are the hardy salt of the Moonshae Isles, and you’re one of them--except for that spark you seem to have that makes you more. Be it a soul filled with wanderlust, a commitment to do the right thing, or an instinct to help when others would run, you have that streak in you that makes you a hero. The people of your village already see it. They talk as if you won’t be there much longer, and while you love the people of your village, you know you can do so much more for the Moonshae Islands and the Ffolk who live there if you strike out and search for your destiny.

Skill Proficiencies: Animal Handling, Survival

Tool Proficiencies: Artisan’s tools, vehicles (land or water)

Equipment: A set of artisan’s tools (your choice), a hoe or fishing pole, a set of common clothes, and a belt pouch containing 10 gp
