Vaarg Vilkness
Vaarg was a Dragonborn Paladin, an ex-soldier captured in his travels by a mad cult, looking to invoke occult gods. Vaarg and his friend, Norbin, were put in a slave camp and forced to survive the arena, the labour, the forming of the resistance and parenting a young girl whose parents had died by his hands.
"Vaarg was born to a small family in the Harglast region in a quiet settlement. He spent his early years learning small martial skills from his father and schooling at a local temple with his mother and siblings.
Soon a neighboring region of humans started to invade the Harglast outer reaches. It was quickly decided to mobilize an army of the collective settlements in Harglast and stand against the enemy. Vaarg and his father were both enlisted and were part of many skirmishes against their human invaders.
Years on the field, in trenches and humble tents left him ultimately a bit disassociated with regular folk. Vaarg was dead-set in his beliefs of protecting those dear to him and the cruel fate of war. The loss of allied lives weighed heavy on Vaarg and would slowly crumble his resolve.
During one fateful battle for territory Vaarg lost his father in an ambush set by his enemies. Swearing rightful retribution on them, Vaarg continued his bloody defense and soon found him growing closer and closer to the frontlines.
Throughout their lives, His older siblings found simple crafts to practice in the settlement and their mother slowly suffered from degraded health by her sorrow, worries and the news of her husband's demise later in the war. Vaarg was not present for these events.
During a trying time Vaarg came across a small, ruined temple and took a moment to pray for all those he had lost and left at home. A small tinge of hope entered his thoughts and brought him a minor moment of respite. For a bright moment, he envisioned his victory against his enemies and felt resolute in his actions.
Vaarg marched on until he found himself far from home with only few soldiers and comrades by his side. In an instant he found himself snared by an unidentified group of assailants and dragged to their settlement."
