If summoned as part of a short or extended rest, the Trained Displacer Beast has its full hit points. When Shale uses his second wind, the Trained Displacer Beast recovers the same amount of hit points. After a short or extended rest, the Trained Displacer Beast recovers all its hit points. The Trained Displacer Beast uses Shale's healing surges when it spends a healing surge. The Trained Displacer Beast may move when Shale uses a move action, or Shale may stay put and the Trained Displacer Beast moves. The Trained Displacer Beast may take free actions without Shale commanding it. The Trained Displacer Beast will act independently if Shale is knocked unconscious or more than 20 squares away.

Appearance:
Shale has short auburn hair, and wears a forest green shirt with dark green
pants and brown shoes. His emerald eyes often dart around when he is bored.

Personality traits:
Shale is Curious, sly, skeptical, and mischievous. He has a strong wanderlust
and has a vagabond outlook on life.
Shale is flexible and adaptable when it comes to making decisions and following
rules, and he is thoughtful, although overly fond of jokes.
Although Shale has a happy-go-lucky attitude as nothing keeps him down for
long, he is a bit skittish when too much attention is focused on him as he
prefers not to be the focus of everyone's attention.

Character background:
Shale's family traveled a lot when Shale was very young. Shale's father was a
mage, while his mother was a Fey Beast Tamer. They traveled out of curiosity
and due to being bored when staying in one place to long. Although sometimes
they had to leave when a Fey Beast Companion caused trouble, or was rumored to
be causing trouble. Shale has taken after both his parents as he is a mage who
is also a Fey Beast Tamer. Shale is working on blending them together in a
deadly manner, with a distinctly gnomish flare.
