Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sir Kendrik" data-source="post: 1164" data-attributes="member: 123">Here is the continuing adventures of Sir Kendrik Larsen and his companions who right wrongs in the Misty Isles.This post as I complete them will have profiles of each PC and major NPC and Campaign background.  Come back to this first post from time to time to notice these changes.ProfilesSir Kendrik Larsen,Sir Kendrik, aged 23, is an imposing figure.  Standing 6 foot 3 inches tall and weighing 230 pounds, he has been described as a mountain of a man.  With broad shoulders and thick muscular arms that are the result of his upbringing as the son of a blacksmith, working the forge.  This impressive build has been honed into a frame of muscle covered by a rounding layer of fat by his adventuring and regular training in the keep. He keeps his short brown hair neat and has icy blue eyes.  Sporting a neatly trimmed beard with a bushy moustache, which is the current fashion with the young knights of the Misty Isles.  Sir Kendrik is also a very hairy young man, so hairy that he gained the nickname "Bear" as teenager from his friends.He is a fearsome and fearless fighter; seeming to have almost a sixth sense in combat, rarely missing his target.  He is however prone to bouts of recklessness that have gotten Sir Kendrik into all sorts of trouble, almost losing the woman he loves.  Sir Kendrik never fights dirty and prefers to bring a villain to face justice than being judge, jury and executioner.  He is very nimble for his size and wields his weapons with great skill and dexterity.  Sir Kendrik’s usual awkwardness disappears when he fights he seems to grow in composure and confidence.       He is a simple man with a good and just heart.  Always willing to help those who need it and determined to make sure that evil does not flourish in the Misty Isles.  He is lawful in his outlook and good in his actions. He is the second of three children to Lars Korricson, a master blacksmith and his beautiful wife Lizabeth.  His two siblings are older brother Froderik, 29 and younger sister Betaine, 17.  Froderik is a cunning social climber who has never been fond of his younger brother.  This dislike has always confused Kendrik, which has now festered to hatred, as Froderik has seen his "stupid" younger brother first become an employee of the Baron, then be knighted and granted a fief.  Froderik takes great delight in mercilessly berating and belittling his younger brother whenever he can.  Betaine is a sweet and intelligent young woman who Sir Kendrik spoils and protects fiercely.  Betaine is the spitting image of her mother and is a budding bard with the voice of an angel.  When their mother died, Kendrik and Betaine looked out for each other as their father withdrew into himself.  This close bond was broken when Kendrik went off adventuring.When Kendrik was 16 his mother along with many inhabitants of Axbridge were murdered by a hobgoblin raiding party.  This tragic event severely effected Kendrik, something he is still coming to terms with.  Even now, the emotional scars are still evident.  This event caused the usually tolerant Kendrik to develop a deep hatred of goblinoids in general, and hobgoblins specifically.  Kendrik worshipped his mother, who some reason, seemed favoured him over his other siblings. His father was a hard but fair man, however he is cold towards his youngest son, something that has always puzzled young Kendrik.  Kendrik's father is ever critical of his mistakes and rare in his praise, as if Kendrik did something as a young child that his father will not forgive.  After laying down his life honourably trying to prove the guilt of an evil knight, Kendrik was resurrected by the actions of his friends and the grace of Pelor.  Straight after this traumatic event, he was made a squire to the Baron's champion, Sir Brand.  Sir Kendrik idolises his mentor, who has filled the role of father figure for the young knight while Kendrik has lived at the keep.Sir Kendrik is in love with the Lady Elanor, a ward of Baron Aldred.  Lady Elanor is the most perfect beauty Sir Kendrik has ever seen.  Their courtship started out quite rocky, but Lady Elanor has warmed to her beau's naive country boy charms.  The Baron has not been so easy to win over, and is very protective of his young ward's honour.  Sir Kendrik desperately wants to prove his worth to his liege lord, however this has caused problems in and of itself, with things not appearing as they seem to the Baron.  happy readingSir Kendrik</blockquote>
