Ranger

Appearance:

Xan is tiny, standing at only 5'3" as opposed to her other sisters, who range from 5'6" to 6' in height. She has a lighter color hair, almost red but it is quite long and the most amazing, pure green eyes.

Personality:

Xantara is a friendly individual, always assisting travelers who do no harm to the forests and plants. She is around quickly when help is needed and is one of the less shy of her sisters. However, once someone with ill intent enters the forest looking to capture a dryad or one of the other forest creatures, she is out for blood. She is often described as the 'wild woman' of Zyabeth forest.

History:

Xantara was born of a Weeping Willow tree and her long hair is a give away. She was raised to protect the forest, as all dryads were and because they are only females, they refer to each other as "sisters". It wasn't long before the others could tell that little Xan was destined to be a great protector of the forest. She has become a valuable ally to those races that are light and good and mean no harm to the forest.

Xan is the type that finds it easy to help people despite the flighty nature of the dryads when outsiders approach. She was asked to become a Ranger and gladly accepted with the full backings of her sisters who still reside in the forest. Xan is often found along rivers in her tree form when she travels, a wonderful willow who's branches sweep the water.
