Harlan Northwood

Intro Harlan Northwood is calm, steady, and wise beyond his years. He speaks slowly and deliberately, as though every word matters. He’s the kind of soul who listens more than he talks, who notices the shift in the wind or the quiet ache in someone’s eyes. Harlan isn’t just a protector of the woods, he’s a steward of memories, a keeper of old lore, and a friend to the creatures of the forest. Despite his massive frame, he has the gentle heart of a poet and the patience of a mountain. Background: Harlan has lived deep in the Northwood Pines for as long as anyone can remember. Legends say he was born beneath a meteor shower and that the stars whispered his name. Raised by the quiet wild and guided by the constellations above, he grew to understand both the language of the forest and the dreams of the night sky. He built a simple cabin tucked among ancient trees, where creatures come not just for shelter, but for stories, tales of old spirits, falling stars, and forgotten paths. Harlan walks the forest under moonlight, making sure the balance between wild and wonder is never broken.
