About Marik Irondale
Background:
Felled by a festering leg wound, Marik Irondale breathed his last in a crude shelter in the ruins of Sithelbec, his only company a dark-haired stranger from the Seeker lands of Abanasinia. The Marik Irondale that left the ruins when the snow cleared was a half a hand shorter, his blond mane replaced with close-cropped black hair, his face covered by a short beard rather than a luxurious Solamnic mustache.
Trading his too-large armor to some farmers for a horse, this new Marik headed east, attempting to leave old memories and dark deeds behind. His signet ring and the rose-covered crown emblazoned on his shield opened doors that would have remained closed to a reformed killer, even one who had served as the anointed blade of Haven's Council of Highseekers.
The memories of that other life have proved difficult to purge, however, even as Marik traveled east, trading his horse for passage across the New Sea to Blöde, where increasing conflict with the local ogre clans promised honest work for knights and mercenaries.
