As with most Ulfen, Olik stands tall and broad of shoulder. His long light brown hair, beard and blue eyes speak of the northlands as well. He exudes a somber, stoic presence that seems to draw people to him despite his rugged appearance. Furthering his somewhat savage look are winding northern tatoos that cover his arms, chest and even part of his face.
Studded leather armor covers him beneath his well worn travelers cloak and a metal buckler sits strapped to his forearm. The leather that must have once smoothly covered it is now cut and nicked in a myriad of placed. A well tended longsword hangs sheathed from his hip with a dagger counterbalancing it on the other side. A hunters bow and brace of arrows stick out from beneath a laden pack upon his back.
Background:
Olik was born in a small village near the sea west of the Grungir Forest within the Lands of the Linnorm Kings. There he grew up learning the ways of survival and combat in a harsh land. While much of the teaching was done with sweat and blood, it was also imparted through story and song and these where what truly called to Olik. The history of the land, the very story of his people passed along from one generation to the next. A grand song that tied all things together, hero and villain, monster and hunter, king and peasant.
As he moved from childhood to adolescence Olik committed every tale and song the elders of his village knew to heart. When he came of age he took on the role of skald, keeper of the lore of his people, and began to travel the wilds of the north seeking more stories, more piece of the great song. Eventually he happened upon travelers from Varisia who were more than happy to trade tales with him to help pass the miles. Olik quickly realized that even if he were to learn all the Lands of the Linnorm Kings had to teach it would still only be a small piece of the greater whole. So he joined the Varisian caravan as they traveled back to the south and started to learn their songs as well as their language. It was during this time that Olik first learned of the Pathfinder Society and their goals. Sensing kindred spirits he soon set out for Absalom to seek what fortune might bring him and hopefully one day return to his people a keeper not only of their history but of Golarions.
