Argle wants no trouble. Even when town people try to give him trouble. Lives deep in the forest. Hunts his food. Sells pelts in town, once in a while. Is friend to small children. Small children have not learned to fear Argle yet.

One day, strangers disturb Argle’s peace. Think he’s an evil wizard. Much explaining happens before they realize Argle only have similar name to evil wizard.

Strangers depart. Days later, Argle departs too. Finds some friends, which is good. Goes questing with friends. Maybe someday he find evil wizard and kill him to stop people from confusing Argle with him. Also demons and stranger stuff.

Argle used 2 character points to buy extra gear. Likes to shoot enemies with his bow. Will grapple and stab if can’t shoot. Will spend earned points on being more shooty; might spend them on being better wrestler too.
