Shalhoond/Great Wild Wood survivor

You grew up in a small group of survivors after your native forest was invaded by dangerous monsters. This childhood forcing you to hone your ability to not be seen and avoid traps. You have a heightened sense for traps set by monsters, especially in forest settings. You traverse forests with ease, even when others would find the terrain difficult. You prefer to work alone or in small groups since this makes going unnoticed easier.

You are always equipped with the tools to disarm a trap and the skills to 'disappear', thus making yourself useful in life outside the forest has not proven difficult. 

Skill Proficiencies: Athletics, Stealth

Tool Proficiencies: One type of gaming set, thieves' tools

Languages: One language spoken by the invasive species, choose one from: Deep Speech or Undercommon

Equipment: A small knife, a set of dark common clothes including a hood, and a pouch containing 15 gp

Spell List

Constantly having to hide and run in a dangerous and magical forest has resulted in you picking up a couple of spells to help you escape discovery. 

Spell Level	Spells
2nd	invisibility, pass without trace, silence

While you initially used these spells purely for evasion you have found their usefulness extends to more areas than escape alone. 

Suggested Characteristics

Most survivors have an understandable lack of trust for others, but once you manage to earn their trust they are frequently the most loyal companions. Larger authorities and their laws mean little to those whom were abandoned by society, survivors therefore live by their own moral code which may or may not align with the established laws.

There is a rumor suggesting that it may have been elves that have released the monsters upon your forest in order to hunt them for sport. This rumor leaves you with great distrust  towards all elves. Should this rumor prove true then compensation/retribution will be demanded.
