Fulk began his life as a fairly normal half-orc of the Skull Eater tribe in eastern Belkzen. Life is never easy for a half-orc in Belkzen, and he was often picked on as a child, but by working hard he was able to become an adequate warrior, noted especially for his resistance to hardship. But then things changed. In his twentieth year his sorcerous powers began to emerge. At first, this was taken as a sign of blessing from Sezelrian, who he had always worshipped fervently, being fascinated with fire from a young age. But as he manifested the ability to grow claws and increasingly scaly skin, the truth became known: his human mother was of latent draconic heritage. At this revelation, he was cast fromthe tribe. Wandering for a time, he came upon the feared and fabled mountain of Raschka-Tor, the Fire Mountain. Within lived a family of red dragons, whom he hoped might take him in. They did, for a time, finding him a useful pawn and intermediary, and he learned much about his powers from them. But eventually, as his powers grew to rival those of the family's wyrmling offspring, he was cast out again. He then wandered east, into the human-ruled lands of Ustalav, where he hoped that his abilities (and the connections he'd made serving as a draconic intermediary) might allow him to make his way. He has made his way carefully across the Shudderwood, forced to cash in most of the favors he is owed, but still holds one key token: an invitation to visit the Ascanor Lodge if he is ever in the area on business. And so he has arrived at the Lodge, listening carefully for ominous howls in the distance.
Appearance:
Fulk is a fairly normal half-orc, but for the blood-red shade of his hair and pupils. He is of relatively average height, but stoutly built, with powerful arms. He wears a shirt of mithril links, cesti on his hands, and carries a great orcish hornbow which he is skilled with, but neglects to use unless his target is not worth wasting a spell on, or he has run out of spells for the day.
