Summary:
The Redfoot clan - characterized by their head of red hair - are equally known for their wanderlust and their bravery. It is customary for young Redfoots to travel out, see the world, and settle down, and as such they have many families throughout the realms. Pericles Redfoot was born into one such family in a small halfling community on the Sword Coast, and showed from a young age both traits of the Redfoot clan. She grew up exploring and wrestling with boys; and when she was older, enlisted in the militia. She spent several years in this position, defending her home against goblins, orcs, and occasionally human bandits. Through these endless conflicts, she naturally became devout to the faith of Arvoreen, halfling God of War.

Wanderlust soon gripped her when she was twenty, and her family and friends farewelled her with equal joy and sorrow. Over the course of a few years, she gradually made her way up the Sword Coast, doing odd jobs like hiring herself out as a mercenary or protecting caravans. When she arrived in Sundren, she soon heard of the recent turmoils, and decided to prove herself by the name of Arvoreen.

Recent defeats have made her too aware of her weaknesses; and she has resolved to become stronger to be able to defend others.

Because of her limited contact with the "tallfolk", she is still unused to their way of life. Her biggest peeve is being called short or little; and will fly into a rage if thus provoked. The faith of Arvoreen requires her to protect other hins, which she does gladly, ready to sacrifice her life it need be.
