History

Leifr grew up in the Lööwtúng clan up in the northern wastes of The Land of the Lindorm Lords. His father, Hjálmarr, was a proud warrior and his mother, Ásta, had a touch for caring about animals. As the youngest of three he was raised to be strong and be able to hold his own in a fight. However tragedy struck early as his mother got complication following her forth pregnancy and his younger sibling was a stillborn. It hit his mother hard. But she was a strong woman whom worked her way through it. Perhaps unfortunately it also lead to Leif getting special treatment by her.

As grew up it was soon clear that he was stronger than his peers. He soon got special training in how to use his rage to fuel himself in battle, like a berserk. But as the training progressed and he managed to unleash his rage it had some unexpected side effects. He was called a Bloodrager, fearsome warriors wielding eldritch powers born from their blood.

Unfortunately in his rage it became clear that his blood was of demonic origin as claws sprouted out. It sent a wave through the clan. People started to avoid him, fear him. Everyone had heard the stories of the demons and the World Wound. They knew what demons was capable off. Leifr was shunned and his family shamed.

So he had to leave. The clan provide for him because regardless of what he was, he was still one of theirs. He packed his things and left. He was feeling lost in the world but he knew he had to keep going. His home was no longer his. He found residence among the clerics of Gorum whom taught him valuable lessons on how he shouldn't let his blood dictate his fate. He had been dealt a hash hand by the gods but they were just testing his resolve. He boarded a ship and went for warmer lands.

Eventually he grew tired as a trader and sailor and he took job as a mercenary. He found his peace in battle. It wasn't too difficult either as Ulfen warriors was highly sought after, despise his young years. After some time he got employed as body guard and things were going well for him. Until he failed in his mission. With no job and shame in himself hanging over his head he went back to mercenary work. Which brought him to his next chapter in his life.
