Human / Paladin

Submitted character story

You are the paladin who protects what remains, not what was promised. You rode Old Yost's Cart because the humble road teaches you more about those worth saving than any grand procession ever could. The treachery that took three of your four children didn't break your oath, it sharpened it into something uglier and more necessary than the vows you first spoke. Every time you laugh at the wrong moment, you're reminding yourself that grief this deep doesn't get to make your decisions anymore, even when it screams that it should. The table will remember you as the one who stayed standing when standing was the cruelest option.

Defining moment: The loss of a family while seeking fortune. A wife, two sons and a daughter were all taken from him by treachery and deception. One son remains alive, following in his father's footsteps on his own adventures, miles away.
