Description and Background    Description: Very tall (for a gnome), almost four feet. Average weight, making him look quite thin. He has short, brown hair though he doesn't have a beard. He seems to keep himself freshly shaved at all times. Almost always has a smile on his face and a glint in his eye, but then, so do many dangerous creatures... Background: Born and raised in the Kron Hills. His uncle was a merchant who was captured by bandits operating out of an old moathouse near the village of Hommlet. After almost being fed to an ogre, his uncle was rescued by a group of adventurers and returned home. Upon witnessing this, the nephew decided to take up the glamorous life of adventuring, rather than become a boring merchant or a miner like all the other suckers in his delve. Unfortunately the adventurers who rescued his uncle found him a bit off-putting and rejected his request to accompany them on their travels. Undeterred, the young (for a gnome) set off toward the town of Saltmarsh. Apparently there was a great need for adventurers there. Somewhere along the way, he acquired a knife. It was big and a bit strange looking (for a knife), but it liked the idea of going on adventures...

(Burning Hands spell on self) New Spell Knife's Deflecting Blade (Conjuration/Illusion) Level: 1 Components: V S,M Range: Touch Casting Time: 1 round Duration: Special Area of Effect:One person Saving Throw: None When this spell is cast on a creature it lowers the subject's AC by 1. The subject is surrounded by an unseen protective aura. When attacked, the aura manifests as an illusory knife or dagger that attempts to deflect the incoming blow. If the blow nevertheless strikes home, the Deflecting Blade will nullify one point of damage from the hit. As the Deflecting Blade is created by the protective aura, rather than being a physical object, it may defend against multiple attacks each round it is in effect. This spell may be cast at any point prior to entering combat and will remain in effect until exhausted or dispelled. It will last for one round of combat per level of the caster.
