Ulfwine Aelfwinsson

Ulfwine was born in 5095 in earldom of North Hendon in the small but busy village of Kelin Rapids. Kelin Rapids lies about a day’s ride northwest of the capitol at Lolle and is an important stop for wagons and caravans travelling to the gem and iron mines on the slopes of the Dragonspines. His father Aelfwine is a blacksmith, and while Ulfwine was brought up to the trade, he showed little aptitude for the forge. Both Aelfwine and his wife Alodie are of half-elven stock with both lineages several generations removed from the union of Elf and Human.
In addition to his early training in the smithy, Ulfwine’s father also introduced him to the rudiments of armed combat. Aelfwine served for a period as smith with the Order of LLaestal’s Guard in their unceasing wars of vigilance along the Empire’s northern frontier.
Unsuited by temperament and frame to the hard trade of blacksmithing, and unsure of his future, young Ulfwine found his life’s calling after making acquaintance with a travelling priest of Koar. The priest Averill stayed for a time in Kelin Rapids and undertook to instruct Ulfwine in his letters and to teach him of the Arkati. With Aelfwine and Alodie’s blessing, Ulfwine accompanied Averill for several months on his trips to towns and villages along the frontier, even going as far as Icemule Trace.
After their return from the missionary journey, Averill presented Ulfwine to the Archpriest at the Temple of Koar in Lolle where he took his vows as paladin and servant to the King of the Arkati. After a brief visit home to Kelin Rapids, Ulfwine then set out for the busy trading town of Wehnimer’s Landing to develop his skills and his character in the struggle against evil and in service to the ideals of honor, justice, mercy, and duty.

You see Ulfwine the Innocent.
He appears to be a Half-Elf from Hendor.
He is shorter than average. He appears to be young and untried. He has bright pale blue eyes and fair skin. He has cropped, thick dark blonde hair. He has a clean-shaven face, a straight nose and slightly pointed ears.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a blackened spiked vultite aegis, some polished moonstone prayerbeads, a crystal amulet, a stylized gold warcat pendant, a heavy wool cloak with a pewter snowflake clasp, an onyx Voln symbol, a sapphire and gold sunburst pin, a leather weapon sling, some ornate vaalorn chain mail, a golden Koar ring, a leather-tied ebon silk gem pouch, an old linen satchel, some dark grey cloth breeches, and a pair of dark leather boots buttoned with silver.
