Vanali is sent out to cripple any enemies entering the forest kingdom. If possible he chooses and prepares the battle field ahead of time- choosing terrain that benefits him and setting traps that immobilize and/or kill pursuers. Then using the forest for cover sneaks within 60ft of his target, enemy commanders being his first choice, clerics and mages being a good second. With his stealth skill he is usually able to snipe for a few rounds then backs off making sure the enemy follows right into his traps and eventually an ambush.

Vanail has no interest in melee combat and will avoid it if at all possible.

Vanail will also be sent on missions to disable enemy equipment (Wagons, Siege engines, ect.), whatever he can do to disrupt their ability to wage war.

Notes: Vanali can move full speed while using stealth without penalty and run at -20. After making a snipe attack he can hide again at a -10. Also note the rules for using stealth in a forest.

Vanali is a reserved, quiet individual. He enjoys being alone and working alone, though he will use others as tools to accomplish his goals (Ambushes, setting traps, ect). He is very loyal to the Elven Kingdom and will do everything he can to protect it. He believes there is nothing but evil outside the Elven Realm.

Vanali chose his profession when he was young, after his father was killed helping to defend against a raid. He now spends his life trying to ensure the safety of his fellow elves from outside threats.
