|- 
| '''NAME: Peregrine'''
| Player's Name: Pete
|- 
| Philosophy: <em style="color:purple;font-style:normal">NEEDS ONE</em>
| Faith/Creed: A devotee of Sun Feather, a god of birds and truth. 
|- 
| Gifts: 
* Alert (Minor) - Peregrine uses TN5 when making any default Attribute tests involving Perception, and any tests involving Perception (Skill or Attribute) are open-ended (reroll 10's to gain possible extra successes).
* Dual Form (Racial) - Peregrine has two forms; a human form and a falcon form.  While in either form, his attributes are identical, but his other physical capabilities are essentially those of the form he is in (i.e. can fly as a falcon, can use opposable thumbs as human).  Some exceptions; as a falcon, Peregrine's move is doubled in straight line and ascending flight, quadrupled in diving flight. Also, as a Falcon, Peregrine's Perception is doubled when distance vision is involved.  The transition between the two forms takes three rounds (3 to 6 seconds), during which time Peregrine is incapable of most activity.  The transition can be reversed at any time (hence taking as many rounds as it has taken so far) but cannot be canceled.
| Flaws: Evil Twin (Major) - Peregrine has an evil twin, another Falcon spirit that is actively working against Peregrine and hates him.
Anchored to the Talisman (Racial) - Peregrine is an anchored spirit, whose anchor appears to be small wooden amulet of a highly detailed falcon with wings spread.  Peregrine can never travel more than a mile from this object, and travel more than 200 yards from this object causes pain and reduces all physical attributes by 1.  Whoever possesses this object can issue commands to Peregrine which he MUST follow.  The only times Peregrine can resist these commands are if they are contrary to his own spiritual attributes; in those cases he may roll his WP plus SA vs. the possessor of the Talisman's WP (TN's are other persons WP).  Success means Peregrine can simply do nothing in response to that command.
|-
| Allies: Night Hawk, the current possessor of his anchor, maybe.
| Enemies: 
* Haarman Vlijnk - Poemavlaggenkommisar.
* Kestrel - The evil twin.

:'''History :'''Many years ago the Niarch's in charge of watching over the lands of The People noticed a growing dissention and unrest growing among The People. Not willing to spend the resources required to quell a rebellion, they decided to go about dealing with this problem in a more subtle manner. They noticed that many of The People revered the spirit world and dedided to make use of this to serve their purposes. A group of Niarch Sorcerors summoned soem spirits which the Niarch's offered as gifts to the chiefs of the most untrustworthy tribes. This was done with great pomp and ceremony as a gesture of good will. These spirits were bound to the bearer of their talisman, but more importantly were bound to report to the Niarch's andy attempt to defy the Niarch authority. Peregrine is one of those spirits. For many years Peregrine aided the chiefs in various tasks and dutifully reported and "improper" activity to his Niarch commanders. In this way any kind of rebellion could be brought down before it had started. This continued until Peregrine was given to a tribe in the Circle Lakes District. This tribe revered the great Sun Feather and were protected by it. The Sun Feather had been encouraging the tribe to break free from their bondage and fight back against their oppressors. As soon as the tribal cheif had received Peregrine, Sun Feather became suspicious and chose to confront Peregrine from the Spirit World. Peregrine felt a strange connection to Sun Feather and a reverence for it. He listened to it's council as if it had been spoken by his own soul. This caused an epiphany in Peregrine and he vowed to aid the People in defeating the Niarch's. He was also personally appalled by what he had done to prevent the people from gathering and fighting back against the Niarch's and chose to dedicate hs life to reuniting the power of The People. He believed that his presence with his current tribe without reporting to the Niarch's would appear suspicious so when the opportunity presented itself he allowed the talisman to be stolen and now plans to sow the seeds of rebellion in his new tribe.
