Character Details

Backstory

Aldric served as a footsoldier in the armies of Furyondy during the Greyhawk Wars, fighting against the hordes of Iuz the Old. After the Pact of Greyhawk brought an uneasy peace, he found himself unable to return to civilian life. He drifted south to the Wild Coast, taking work as a caravan guard and bounty hunter. The horrors he witnessed in the Shield Lands still haunt his dreams, but he channels that darkness into a relentless pragmatism that has kept him alive where younger, more idealistic warriors have fallen.

Personality Trait

"I judge people by their actions, not their words. Talk is cheap in the Flanaess."

Ideal

"Survival. The world is brutal and unforgiving. You either adapt or you die."

Bond

"I lost my entire company at the Battle of Critwall. I carry their standard still and will not let their sacrifice be forgotten."

Flaw

"I trust no one fully and always sleep with one eye open. My paranoia has cost me every friendship I have ever had."

Close-cropped salt-and-pepper

A broad-shouldered man with a permanent scowl etched into his weathered face, his left cheek bearing a jagged scar from jawline to ear. He wears battered chainmail that has seen better days but is meticulously maintained, and moves with the measured economy of a man who has spent decades fighting for his life.
