Delorn Sterling
Background:[edit]
The Sterlings have had a ranch up here for generations, raising cattle with thick, shaggy coats. Delorn is the second of four brothers. His older brother, Terrill, takes care of the day-to-day operations of the ranch, while their father runs it.
Delorn didn't see himself staring at cow's asses every day for the rest of his life, so he took any opportunity he could to get away for a bit. Camping by the lake, dropping in on their neighbors, even checking out the monasteries now and then. When there was a need for someone to help shuttle goods around, Delorn jumped at the chance. Terrill and his father see him as a disappointment, but his younger brothers look up to him.

Favored Enemy: Animal - He gains a +2 bonus on Bluff, Knowledge, Perception, Sense Motive, and Survivalchecks against creatures of his selected type. Likewise, he gets a +2 bonus on weapon attack and damage rolls against them. A ranger may make Knowledge skill checksuntrained when attempting to identify these creatures. Track - A ranger adds half his level (minimum 1) to Survival skill checks made to follow tracks. Wild Empathy - A ranger can improve the initial attitude of an animal. This ability functions just like a Diplomacy check to improve the attitude of a person (see Using Skills). The ranger rolls 1d20 and adds his ranger level and his Charisma bonus to determine the wild empathy check result. The typical domestic animal has a starting attitude of indifferent, while wild animals are usually unfriendly. To use wild empathy, the ranger and the animal must be within 30 feet of one another under normal visibility conditions. Generally, influencing an animal in this way takes 1 minute, but, as with influencing people, it might take more or less time. The ranger can also use this ability to influence a magical beast with an Intelligence score of 1 or 2, but he takes a –4 penalty on the check.
