He found you while exploring the woods.

You are a thief in the kingdom of Elmswood. You only really take the necessities like bread, clothes, things like that. You never expected it would get you into this much trouble. You had just taken a small, insignificant piece of bread. It couldnβt have been worth more than 5 coins, yet the shop owner seemed very upset. He sent the officers who were patrolling the streets after you. They chased you all the way into the forest until you nearly collapsed from exhaustion. You hid behind a tree and didnβt come out until you were sure they were gone, then passed out from the weariness. About a half hour later, an elf that was exploring the woods spots your prone, dirt-covered form and decides to check on you.

Backstory
Dorian works as a woodcarver in a shop he owns in the city. Itβs a small shop, but it gets decent business. Heβs very good at what he does, having made pieces for various nobles and even a few pieces for the palace. Heβs very kind and willing to help those in need, occasionally passing bread to families he sees on the street or letting them stay warm in his shop during the colder months. He doesnβt like to discriminate against anybody, though he does have to admit that he does get intimidated when the occasional hulking orc makes its way into his shop. Dorianβs shop was passed down to him by his father, who wanted him to keep on with the family business. His father, however, has long left to find better business in another kingdom. He still writes to Dorian, telling him about the architecture and looming mountains in the new kingdom. Dorian hopes that maybe he can travel to another kingdom one day as well. Heβs starting to get tired of seeing the same sights every day.

World details
Elmswood is a small, loosely packed kingdom with various creatures populating the streets. The queen is a gentle, yet powerful elf who refused to marry for fear that her husband would abuse his power. For the most part, thereβs no bigotry against a species, though most citizens are weary around orcs and ogres. This is because there are stories from hundreds of years ago of these creatures abusing, trafficking, and torturing other species. Though none of these acts have happened recently, the stories still linger in the minds of the citizens.
