(light load, but heavy armor)Normal load: 180 lb.Heavy load: 360 lb.Max. drag load: 900 lb.Background: [sblock] Kraegyn’s parents met while they were both serving in a mercenary company, and they retired to run a small farm outside the village of Greensfen.  Kraegyn was the oldest of their children, and he grew up listening to the stories of their old campaigns- though somehow he only managed to hear the interesting or exciting parts.  He chafed at farm life, but his parents always seemed to need his help around the place.  By the time his younger siblings had grown up a bit, it was obvious that Kraegyn would never adapt to the farming life, so his parents finally packed him off to a monastery of Kord, away in the mountains far to the north.  Kraegyn hated the cold even more than he hated farming, but he learned his lessons well, and was son anointed as one of Kord’s chosen.  For several years he performed missions for the church, often training or leading small groups in battle.  When the blight hit Greensfen, his parents sent a letter off to the monastery asking for help, but Kraegyn was on an assignment at the time, and it took quite a while for the message to reach him.  By the time he returned home, he found his parents gone and the farm deserted, obviously ruined by the blight.  He was, of course, determined to get to the bottom of this mystery- even without the personal involvement, this was the kind of challenge that no paladin of Kord could resist. [/sblock]Appearance: Kraegyn is big, even by dragonborn standards- tall and broad-shouldered, with a coat of gleaming black scales (about which he is rather vain).  His already considerable bulk is only accentuated by his heavy black armor- though the dull iron also makes his scales look even more lustrous.  He carries a veritable arsenal of weapons- most noticeably his massive wave-bladed sword.  A silver talisman blazoned with the symbol of Kord is fastened tightly around his neck.</blockquote>
