I've been trying my best to RP a very traditional Keeper of the Moon since early 1.0. Â Collecting lore tidbits has been very hard up until 2.0 happened, but it's always seemed to me that Keepers of the Moon had a complicated history with Gridania and Wildwoods. Â I always felt like I should RP getting along with Duskwights and RP having issues with Wildwoods. Â
I combed through all the Gridania quests that I could for lore, but it seems like the previous posters found a few more things than I could. Â
I just wanted to add that it was always my personal feeling that truly traditional Keepers would probably be far more loyal to the Twelveswood as a whole and care less about Gridania specifically. Â I've always RPed Manari as being very eager to bond with other Keepers that she meets, yet also having a burning hatred for the poachers that have made her life hard by giving her a bad reputation, regardless of the fact that they, too, are Keepers.
This is very similar to how I RP Nako, except her family-tribe were poachers. Since separating from her tribe, she has come to learn how harmful that is. She now strives for balance in the Twelveswood, less for Gridania, and more for the wood itself which she considers her true home.
Since Nako grew up like most traditional Keepers, in a small family-tribe, I also RP her as sometimes getting "social shock" in big cities or large gatherings. She's a friendly sort, but her Keeper need for quiet and solitude has her going for days long fishing trips alone, to sort of "recharge her batteries."
