Mattias was born in Ostermark town of Menshenfresserhoffen. The town sits along an important trading roadway south of the Gryphon Woods and north of the Bleak Moors.

What is Your Family Like?

Mattias’ father Otto drove caravan carts for merchants to surrounding towns while his mother Wertha and sister Carlotta work as seamstresses. Mattias initially followed in his father’s footsteps as a driver but later gave in to wander-lust and left Ostermark. He has not seen his family for almost a decade.

What is Your Social Class?

Mattias is a commoner and his work as a hunter has not elevated his status whatsoever.

What Did You Do Before You Became an Adventurer?

Initially, young Mattias worked caravans with his father. He helped with cooking, repaired carts, and sometimes foraged for food. He eventually served as a scout for trading caravans and killed game to help feed the drivers.

Why Did You Become an Adventurer?

During a trading run to Kiel, a pack of Beastmen fell upon Otto and Mattias’ caravan. Otto was killed. Mattias escaped only because he was away searching for game at the time. He returned to discover eviscerated bodies and plundered carts. A traumatized Mattias returned home, said goodbye to his mother and sister, and traveled the Empire as if to find answers to his father’s senseless death. Eventually he wandered outside the Empire and along the World Edge Mountains. Mattias scratches out a meager existence hunting food for Dwarf mining camps. What the dwarves do not eat they give to their indentured servants.

Mattias has tired of such work and is ready to make a try for gold or glory and will readily join a band of adventurers.

How Religious Are You?

Mattias is a nominal worshipper of Taal. He occasionally gives prayers and will make small offerings when he encounters their priests. He is somewhat cynical, however, after the death of his father. Mattias does carry a small charm, a Coil of Life showing the symbols of Taal and Rhya together.

Who Are Your Best Friends?

Mattias has few friends as he is often alone in the wild. Amongst the dwarves of Karak Azgal, Mattias is on very good terms with a merchant named Grom Gromdersonn. He frequents an inn, The Black Hammer, owned by human friend and confidant Olaf Steiner.

What Are Your Prized Possessions?

His prized possession is his longbow, which is central to his livelihood and has saved his life more than once.

Who Are You Loyal To?

Mattias has no strong allegiances. He feels some kinship with dwarves but is disenchanted with their exploitation of indentured servants. He hopes one day to return home with money enough to provide a better life for his mother and sister.

Who Do You Love/Hate?

He loves any rural setting but especially forests. Mattias loves sleeping under open skies and living a nomadic life free from the cares of the city. He hates the evil denizens of the woods such as dark elves and especially beastmen.
