Mulberry

Background

Mulberry is a Leshy barbarian that gained sentience once his roots reached the body of a giant buried in a shallow grave northwest of Rektin. He took the giant’s grave marker, a massive greatsword, as his only possession. Mulberry has very little experience with humanoids and is incredibly naïve. He also has a penchant for flying into a berserk rage, growing in size and violently murdering things. Were it not for his redeeming qualities, everyone would hate Mulberry. Instead, his relentless enthusiasm and unswerving loyalty (as well as being ridiculously adorable) endear him to those whose hearts my otherwise turn him away. After meeting Mulberry on the side of the road and “hiring” him to help the group with some troublesome ghouls and ghasts, the party took Mulberry back to Spur Harbor with them and found him gainful employment with the Gnarly Gnashers. Raktosh put his life on the line to help prove that Mulberry could handle himself in a rough and tumble mercenary group. The Gnashers took in Mulberry, who seems to have worked his unusual charms on them as well. While often exasperated by him, the Gnashers treat Mulberry like family. Plus, he is a wildly talented murder tree who always carries his weight and then some in a fight. Recently, Mulberry wrote Raktosh a letter in a poorly disguised plan to trick Raktosh into showing up for a surprise party and give him a pendant as thanks for helping find Mulberry a home.

A Letter to Raktosh

Dear Raktosh, Hi! I found a nice man to write you this letter for me! Did you know that if you give people those golden coin thingies they will basically do whatever you want? I gave this man one or two and said to write down everything I say exactly and he said that he would so if he didn’t please tell me and I will kill him. Ha Ha Ha I’m kidding Mr. Writer Man!

Anyway, Raktosh I NEED YOUR HELP. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT, LIVES ARE AT STAKE! The man said he could capitalize that part and I don’t know what that means but he said it would make it seem more important even though I already said it was important.

Please come to the Gnasher’s headquarters, and bring one of those red rock things that are worth many of the gold coin thingies. The man who is less nice than Mr. Writer Man says this one must be worth at least 75 of the gold coin thingies, he said to say that is VERY IMPORTANT.

Please come as soon as you can, so that -———— No no no don’t put that part! What do you mean you already wrote it? Make it not wrote-en Mr. Writer Man! The man says that those marks up there mean that he “scratched it out” and you wouldn’t hear that part so I hope that is true, for his sake. Ha ha ha just kidding again Mr. Writer Man!

Bye Raktosh!

Your Friend Mulberry

Dominions Bonds

In a rather strange turn of events, Mulberry has forged a bond with the Dominion of Wind.

Dominion of Wind

Mulberry has learned the 4th-level focus spell windstorm aura, and gains a Focus pool with 1 point. Unlike most spells, this spell does not have the concentrate trait, and can be cast while raging. Mulberry's spellcasting ability for this spell is Constitution.

Windstorm Aura - Focus 4 Abjuration, Air

Cast 1 to 3 actions

Area 5' aura centered on the caster, increasing by 5' for each action used after the first when casting the spell

Duration 1 minute

You call a violent windstorm into being surrounding you. The windstorm kicks up extensive debris, granting you concealment. In addition, when a creature other than you starts its turn in the aura, it must make a Fortitude saving throw or be pushed back 10 feet and knocked prone.

Once on each of your turns during the duration of the spell, you can spend an action to increase the area of the aura by 5 feet, to a maximum of 20 feet.
