In another time period of the campaign that had originated with Dren of the North and Ra-Sharoth, but a different one than Gaius Dovidus, the setting had gone to a viking-like era. In this time period, I played Artellius, an Elf designed in the vein of swashbucklers such as Errol Flynn.

Description

Artellius is a blond haired elf, slight of form, who wears leather armor. At his side is a rapier, and a bow is slung over his shoulder with a quiver of arrows.

Personality

Artellius is an adventurous sort, who is rather casual about relationships (at least until meeting Josi). Light of heart, he fights with a skill that belies his casual attitude.

History

Most of the backstory of Artellius is lost, but he worked with a party of adventurer/raiders for a clan. At one point, he entered into a physical relationship with a local fey named Josi, which became more when she wound up pregnant. One adventure implanted in his mind a sense of a cave in the Deep South which was drawing him, but not so much that he couldn't ignore it. The campaign ended before there was a chance to explore this destination.
