 '''Note:''' The '''Bolded Skills''' are proficient skills. Athletics and Intimidation are from the Soldier Background [PHB 140]. Insight, Investigation, and Perception are from the Ranger Class Skills [PHB p90], but Perception gets double proficiency per ''Canny'' under Deft Explorer [Tasha's p56]. Deception and Stealth are player picks per half elf Racial Features [PHB p39]

 '''Note:''' Because of his specific specialty/role as a Scout (Soldier Background) I swapped out Tool: Land Vehicles for Tool: Cartographer's Tools (mapmaking) if you're ok with that.

 '''Note:''' I got aggressive with the languages for this character concept. Common, Dwarf, and Elf are all half elf features [PHB p39]. Gnomish and Halfling are from ''Canny'' under Deft Explorer [Tasha's p 56]. And finally, Goblin and Orc are from Favored Enemy [PHB p91]. I'm guessing these will likely see very little in the way of practical use, but they're part of my headcannon tying his feat into his background (below).

===Backstory=== 
:My mother is an elf, old by human standards, but still in her prime as her people count such things. She lies and tells me my father was a human soldier - a captain - who perished in a war on the border, and I let her believe I believe her, because I am a good son.

:But my hair grows wild and paints the sky like fire in a way that no human's would, and my beard writhes earthward as if it longs to find and feel bedrock no mater how I trim it.

:My eyes are black as a vein of iron before it's been mined.

:I joined the army as a scout as much to escape my mother's lies as to honor them, but despite my prominent elvish ears - the one feature I inherited from her - none of my fellow soldiers ever saw me as a half elf. To them I was the ''halfdwarven''.

:Not to my face. I was respected in the ranks. Yancy or Blue to my peers and superiors. Sergeant to those beneath me in rank. 

:My life as a soldier is over, but I learned much during my time as a scout. Not just that I am a good tracker, but that I am good with people, learning their languages and customs like one born among them - even those I would as soon bury my axes in as look at.

:See, I can see into their minds. I saw into my mother's mind. I know my father's name. I know why she lies about him. I know . . . well, maybe I don't know ''that'', precisely, but I know what I ''intend''. . . should the day ever come.
