Reactions

Instinctive Charm (Recharge 4–6). When a visible creature within 30 feet of Aukan makes an attack roll against it, he forces the attacker to make a DC 16 Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the attacker redirects the attack roll to the creature closest to it, other than Aukan or itself. If multiple eligible creatures are closest, the attacker chooses which one to target.
Stone's Endurance (4/Day). When Aukan takes damage, he can use his reaction to roll a D12. Add his Constitution modifier to the number rolled, and reduce the damage by that total.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Aukan was once a proud member of the Thuliaga tribe in The Morndin Ridge. Originally given the name 'Tribetalker', he took a diplomatic and messenger role, representing the Thuliaga tribe across the mountains. He was eventually banished after miscommunicating a message between his people and the Gathakanathi, resulting in a small tribal war. After wandering down from the mountains, Aukan met a scholar from Faerndaar, Phrontistery of Arcana, who after a brief conversation explained the possibility of using magic to enhance a person's influence of others. Aukan, seeing this as and opportunity to reclaim some lost honour, enrolled in the university's Silverquill college. Study did not come naturally to him, and to this day he is still mesmerised when a spell takes effect successfully or a new magic item is demonstrated to him, believeexperiment
