About Verash Far Rider
Verash came of age on the North Varisian frontier. He was born and reared a fierce Velashu warrior, defending North Varisia from the wicked Noland raiders. He and his younger brother, Toresh, were companions and friends on their frontier, learning everything they would from their Shoanti-Ulfen father and Varisian mother.
However, it was not long after Toresh's coming of age that a fierce Nolander attack left the younger sibling mortally wounded. Verash got a good look at his brother's killer, and swore on his blood, as Ulfen, Shoanti, and Varisian, that his brother's life shall be avenged.
It was then that Verash began the greatest journey of his life. With the support of his warrior aunt, Zelesha, and the guidance of his fierce, though grieving father, the Velashu hunted down the Noland dogs to were Toresh's killer camped.
The Velashu, fighting with the ferocity of those thirsty for vegeance made short work of the Nolanders; however, the seven-fingered man who killed Toresh escaped, and fled EAST! So Verash, with his father and mother's blessing, and with the good wishes of all of his Velashu kin, went off in pursuit of the seven fingered man who killed Toresh.
Verash hunted his query across half the world, from the Northern frontier Varisia, across the Mindspin mountains, over Nirthmas, past Last Wall all the way into Taldor, where summer seems to have been consumed by Winter. It was there that Verash caught his brother's killer, and it was there that Verash killed his brother's killer, and so finally fulfilled his blood oath, so that his dear Toresh may at last rest in peace.
"Be at peace brother. Your killer no longer walks this earth. The dept is paid."
However, now Verash finds himself in a distant strange land. Where? He is not sure at all. He crossed the mountains, and then all the many leagues blended into a single endless chase through myriad terrains. He has no idea where he is. He can tell though, that it is cold outside. Very cold. There are sheets of snow in the middle of summer. There is something wrong here, and now that his brother is at peace, something must be done!
