Wildlanders: Dreyka Feyblud-Candlewick

The comely sorceress of The Wildlanders relaxes by a gentle stream in her beloved corridor. Birds flutter and chirp nearby. Yet appearances can be deceptive, for Dreyka is at home in fierce battles against fell villains as she is reclining against moss-covered stones.

Dreyka was rolled up on the same night as Thrym and Roscoe, as we sat on grey couches in the Maltman abode. Originally, Dreyka was conceived as a splatbook-class Candlecaster. It quickly became apparent in-game that the class benefits of the Candlecaster were not power-appropriate to the various prerequisites of the class (including the time spent to make candles). Furthermore, Dreyka's personality lent itself to something much more wild and playful. Thus, the fey enchantrix prestige class was created as a collaborative effort. Her focus was on the power of charm through song.

One of the most endearing aspects of Dreyka is her ability to find humor in nearly any situation. Even in battle against the hardest of foes, Dreyka often found ways of adding color and laughter to the encounter. This sense of humor often comes through in her musical compositions. Dreyka also shuns the seriousness of diplomacy and politics, preferring instead to poke fun at her interlocutors or to disregard them entirely.

  1. NB: She shuns diplomacy and politics except where it concerns her beloved home town of Stoneburrow.

  4. Hey I asked you what the spelling was in the first session, and you said it could be either. I chose at that moment BURROW cuz it's much cuter.

  5. burrow and borough probably don't sound the same in halfling. so i assume borough is the translation.
