Oakrum

Overview
Oakrum is an Oakenra - one of the ancient tree-like beings who have existed for thousands of years. He sits on the revered elder council, a position he has earned through respect and wisdom accumulated over many centuries. But unlike other council members, Oakrum thinks differently about how the Oakenra should live.
Philosophy
Oakrum possesses genuine kindness. This is not weakness. It is a choice he makes every day. He believes that kindness should guide how a civilization treats others. He advocates for the Oakenra to communicate with other civilizations, to build bridges instead of walls, to seek cooperation and understanding instead of isolation.
He stands against those who follow tradition blindly and those, like Oilegeist, who pursue power and dominance. He fights for what he believes is right, even when he stands alone.
Nature
Oakrum is guided by profound wisdom earned over millennia. He has witnessed civilizations rise and fall. He understands that isolation breeds suffering while cooperation brings strength. He believes harmony is possible if people choose to seek it.
The council is divided. Some follow tradition. Others pursue their own ambitions. Oakrum represents another path. He may stand alone on the council, but he does not give up. He is proof that hope and change are still possible.
