==Description==
===History===
The Fireside was created, quite accidentally, from the memories of mortals whose dying wish was simply to survive. But upon coming into existence, the Fireside found himself with no purpose, lost in the Mansus. With nothing else to do, the Fireside began to wander. The Fireside had no destination in mind, but the more he explored the Mansus, the more disappointed he was. He found the other hours predictable, and the Mansus was too small and dull in its chaotic, damaged state. And so the Fireside turned his attention to the Waking World. And he was fascinated. The Wake was damaged like the Mansus, yes, but it was damaged in a unique and curious manner. And the mortals! There were so many of them, all different and living their own lives in their own ways. Above all, he admired their willingness to learn. To remember even the smallest experiences and change their behaviour because of it. So the Fireside travelled spoke with the Old Wyrm, who gave the Fireside a gift. The gift of mortal senses, and a door to the Wake. Upon travelling to the Waking World, and the Fireside began to explore. He sought to learn, just as the mortals did, even if it takes him his entire life.
===Appearance===
The details of the Fireside's appearance vary somewhat, but the basics are always the same. He wears a comfortable, weather beaten, leather coat, heavy duty trousers designed to withstand the cold, and a pair of old hiking boots. His hair and facial features change depending who is seeing them, but the Fireside always gives the impression of someone friendly and wise. Frequently, he appears as an old man, but has been known to take the shape of a young one. His hair is always a mess of twigs and leaves.
===Principles===
The Fireside knows the principle of Heart to protect the natural world, and those who respect it. He is proficient with Moth, due to his aimless wandering with no goal in mind. He knows the Secret Histories, having travelled through them in his more ambitious expeditions.
