The Legend of Greentits- Part I

          From an early age, Greentits showed great potential as a huntress, killing her first buck at the age of 10. Much to the surprise of the locals, she single-handedly drug it home and dressed it on her front porch right in-front of everyone. Her father, wanting to raise her in a more civilized manner was disappointed at first, but soon came to take great pride in her innate ability. He even took the hide to the local tailor and had some clothing made for her. And had the Fletcher craft her a fine bow.


Greentits seemed to excel in everything she did, from schoolwork to tracking. She even taught herself some basic alchemy, tasting all the herbs and berries she could find in the woods to figure out their effects, and in doing this she eventually figured out how to make some potent poisons to coat her arrowtips. She even made a respectable amount of coin from selling her surplus. And by the time she had reached the age of 16 she could hold her own better than most of the local adventurers, quickly earning their respect while working as a guide for some of them, as nearly no one knew their way around the dense forests better than her.


She once idolized these brave individuals, but soon came ti be seen as an equal to some of the best. In tagging along with them on their quests, she had learned alot in a relatively short period of time. By the time she finished school, she already enjoyed a great deal of renown, regaling the tavern's regulars with tales of her epic adventures. She also found herself the object of many men's affections, but despite their best efforts she more-or-less maintained her virtue into her mid-twenties when she met a great adventurer from the frozen wastelands of the North.
