This ranger is an agent of the Harpers.
That essentially good but secretive organization
of the North seeks, among other
things, to destroy evil?or at least, evil
rulers, and the goblin races?to prevent
men from indiscriminately despoiling the
land for their own gain; and to preserve the
culture of the elves and dwarves, encouraging
elves, dwarves, halflings, gnomes, and
humans to live together in peace. Vedellen
doesn?t worry about all that, however. He
merely seeks grand adventure in the wilds,
with any band that is headed there, his task
from the Harpers being to keep an eye on
such bands in Waterdeep and report on
their real alignments, intentions, and activities.
If he joins a band, it will be on a temporary
basis, and he will of course seek to
curb any wanton destruction of wildlife
except evil giant-class creatures or other
monsters, whom he will attack without hesitation.
Between adventures, Vedellen will
always return to Waterdeep?s inns and taverns
to continue his spying for the Harpers.
If he is ready for training, he will go north,
alone, to Silverymoon, to find a half-elven
ranger to tutor him.
