Player: Gennie Summers Dawnstar was raised in a normal family with two brothers and a sister, where she was the eldest. Her father was a forester while her mother kept house. Her brothers often accompanied their father into the woods, while she was required to remain at home and help her mother and little sister. But in her heart she wished she could go with her father and brothers. When she was free to do so she would steal away into the forest and observe the trees, plants, animals and birds and grew to love them. She would beg to be allowed to go searching for berries and nuts. Her next-oldest brother would tease her saying she had the heart of a boy instead of a girl's heart. Then tragedy struck when this brother was injured in the forest and could no longer accompany his father. He could, however, help around the house. So it was decided that Dawnstar would be allowed to go with her father in his place. She felt badly for her brother, but loved the woods even more than she did before. Her father told her of the rare and magical creatures that lived in the forest, such as Dryads, pixies, and faerie dragons. She met Rangers and on one momentous occasion met a Druid. It became plain that her place was in the woods, so when she begged to take the training offered by the Rangers her father granted permission and his love. She was trained by the Rangers in the ways of the woods and eventually trained by the Druid who had become her friend. Time went by and she was at last a mature women who had earned her place in the forest and in the world. She decided to join the Druids and serve Nature and The Balance.
