Vel

Vell is the product of the dalliance of a Northern King with an Elven sorceress. He is a member of the southern Venators path.

Years passed and peace talks between the north and west were being brokered. As a sign of good faith & to seal the alliance, Queen Varya offered her half brother Vell as a soldier to the Western Armies elite unite the Rangers. Vell is a skilled warrior, capable of wielding both sword and bow with sublime technique and finesse.

During his time of service with The Rangers, Vell quickly earned a promotion to Captain. This was something unheard of for someone so young, but was received well by all due to his skill & daring. Always eager to be out in the field, Vell's leadership & skill was often tested with perilous assignments. On one of these occasions, Vell was to venture South to investigate the cataclysm and report back with any information. However on this seemingly routine journey, the young captain's life would change forever.. Leaving his men to set up camp, the young captain went out to check their surroundings. His explorations brought him to a strange looking cave & upon entering he blacked out immediately.

Where that cave was or what happened in it is forever lost to Vell's memory. He awoke in a strange land disorientated & feeling very weak.He managed to drag himself to a copse of trees & immediately fell into a deep sleep. Awakening days later to the feeling of being watched he sat bolt upright. "Easy laddie" a comforting voice reassures him, "ye look like ye have been to the nine hells & back" he hears before he blacks out once more..

The next time he awakens he is in a warm bed & the smell of roasted meat & warm bread assault his nostrils. He looks around in confusion & is greeted by a chuckle & the same voice from the forest.. "I sense your tale is one for the ages laddie, but first eat & drink. I didn't carry ye all this way for ye to die of starvation!" Vell grins as the old dwarven warrior has a gruff but easy way about him. "Ye be in Fort Wruenbane laddie & I am the leader of this clan Hendel Hammerfist. Eat, drink & then we will chat..."
