= Backstory =
Kolskeggr Haraldur was a Haelothian native born human, who grew up without his real family. Since after birth, he was abandoned by his parents and siblings. Laboring within the harsh weather of Haeloth, he eventually survived the years until he was an adult. Upon adulthood being reached, he journeyed south to the kingdom of Arilaand. Where he would eventually be adopted by a man named Poliver, a human farmer who was once a knight serving his kings and lords. Since being a retired knight, his farmstead was well maintained for it was his greatest focus. Eventually, he was pushed out by his brother. Kolskeggr had lost Poliver upon his return to the farm and wandered off on his own. His trail followed different farms, towns, and eventually, Adwick. He labored as a lumberjack and fought in the fighting pits for coin. His eventual exposure to purpose under the church of Mithrax, appealed to him. His underlying hatred for his homeland made it quite easy for him to toss Banir aside for the Blue Flame. Kolskeggr was taken under the wing of Prelate Helena, of the Paladins Chapter of Adwick. His training under her and his fellow members of the church, led him to being eventually promoted to Paladin. His reuniting with Poliver came before this and along with Poliver was Bridget, his daughter. She would become Kolskeggr's adopted sister, but with his newfound responsibilities, he found it difficult to attend to his family's needs while they were in the city. Dangers made it hard for them to find an opportunity to leave the castle. This entrapment eventually led to Bridget's death at the hands of the Cradle of Isara. Kolskeggr made a deal with the Viper to convince the church to focus on the Cradle instead of the Black Serpents, having little reason to disagree with this, he succeeded. This, was all because of revenge, despite any logic behind it. He got what he sought, eventually. The Magistrate taken care of, blood spilled in his defense. With the war and the need for Paladins elsewhere, Kolskeggr took his grieving father and set out with the now Bishop Helena, to go west with their chapter of Paladins. His journey continues elsewhere...
