Description
Iris was born in the small village of Applewood. She was the only child of a woodcutter and his wife. When Iris was five, her parents were killed by bandits while they were out in the forest. Iris was spared only because she hid under the bed. From that day on, Iris swore she would never be helpless again. Iris spent the next ten years of her life living in the forest, honing her skills as a hunter and tracker. She learned how to fight with a bow and arrow and how to read signs in the natural world. Iris also found a small group of orphans who had been living in the forest since their parents met similar fates. Together, they eked out a meager existence, but they were happy nonetheless. When Iris was fifteen, she met a ranger who was passing through the area on a mission. He took her under his wing and taught her everything he knew about survival in the wilds. He also showed her how to connect with nature spirits and how to use their power to help her in times of need. Eventually, Iris's group of orphans grew up and left the Forest to make their own way in the world. But Iris stayed behind, preferring to live off the land and help other lost souls find their way back home. Iris has since become famous for her skills as a ranger and for her kind heart. She has helped many people find their way home safely and has even taken down entire bands of wicked bandits herself. She is truly one of the greatest heroes of our time!
