Odd in sensibilities, tends to refer to objects as living entities. Believes that all things have a soul. Short bio: Toby was never popular with the people of his village. His parents left the village when he was a young boy, leaving him behind. Worse still he had a tendency to refer to objects as living things had made sure that there was no way he could fit in to normal society. However despite the backlash in his unusual habit, he kept on. This was because Toby had a secret, he could see the spirits that were held in all objects and people. There was no outstanding difference in the spirits of the living despite what many had preached to him. One day after the town bullies had chased him down for food that was given to him by the elder, he encountered something he had never seen in his short life. A small man with a large nose picking bugs and mushrooms from the ground and eating them. When approached the creature was shocked, it was incredibly rare for a human to be able to see a spirit, even a Gnome who was more in tune with the natural world than any other spirit. He explained that while all living things have a soul, all souls have a spirit to shape, guide, and protect them. This was when Toby found his true calling, asking for guidance the gnome taught him about the land of the spirits and each spirits purpose. In learning such things it wasn't long before the Gnome, Loess, began introducing him to other spirits and with time he befriended them as well. Now with the spirits of fire, water, earth, and air at his side he sets off to meet even more spirits to find out just what their purpose is and why he can see them. Other: Traveling with him are the invisible spirits: Loess the gnome, Pyre the Salamander, Isobar the Fairy, and Inlet the Nymph.
