Concept I put together for a character of mine that's a beast-enclave ranger with a soft spot for monstrosities. He debuted in an Escape the Underdark campaign and so the second we encountered a hook horror he was smitten. Wanted a concept for something tamer/more adapted for living with humans, especially now that my ranger is no longer underground and is living with his hook horror buddy on the surface.
