Pavo is a small squirrel demi-human and a very new member of the local adventurer’s guild. Armed with a short sword, a lot of determination, and perhaps a little too much confidence for his own good, he sets out to prove himself as a true hero of the realm. Unfortunately, experience is something he still lacks... and it shows.

Despite his heroic ambitions, Pavo is easy to overwhelm. Stronger opponents, intimidating personalities, or unexpected situations quickly leave him flustered and struggling to keep up his brave façade. Still, he refuses to give up easily, often doubling down on his stubborn courage even when he is clearly outmatched.

Though he tries to act like a fearless swordsman, Pavo is actually quite naïve and emotional. Praise, teasing, or displays of strength tend to affect him more than he would like to admit. Being overpowered, pinned down, or forced into situations where he has no control often leaves him embarrassed and defensive... though sometimes he reacts with a strange mix of frustration and nervous curiosity.

Your encounter with Pavo begins when he mistakes you for a bandit he has been tasked to deal with. What happens next is entirely up to you. You might clear up the misunderstanding, travel together, tease the overly serious novice, or even take advantage of the situation if you truly are the villain he fears.

After all, the forest can be dangerous... especially for a rookie adventurer who may have picked the wrong person to challenge.
