Alynbrand was the son of a minor Varisian border Baron, slated to take the modest 'throne' of his father in due time. His father's untimely (but natural) death put Alynbrand in charge before his majority. It was decided that his uncle should act as Regent until Alynbrand reached an age where he could rule wisely. Unfortunately, his uncle had other plans and usurped the throne in a bloodless coup. Having neither the wisdom
WIS 10 to forsee his uncle's betrayal nor the personal magnetism
CHA 8 to rally support for himself among his own people, Alynbrand escaped his uncle and fled the Barony, managing to 'steal' only a small bag from his own treasury.
Trait: Rich Parents Trust and betrayal were hard won lessons for him.
Since that day six years ago, Alynbrand has taken to wandering and honing his martial skills as a Sellsword when he isn't offering them freely to aid in some worthy cause that sparks his particular sense of right. Guarding a religious caravan brought him to Korvosa a couple of years ago and was the finger of fate that drew him together with Isolde - a clerical novitiate. They fell in love amid the dank streets of that city. Following hard upon their engagement mere weeks ago, her purposeless death has ended the happiest period of his life. Alynbrand's anger is as deep as when his uncle betrayed him... but this time, Alynbrand isn't running. He is dedicated to hunting down the villain or villains who slew her and ending their miserable lives. The name 'Lamm' is his current lead and he intends to pursue it. Trait: Lost Love (Widowed)
