Appearance:
Wulfric stands about 6 feet tall with rather broad shoulders but a leaner build than most Ulfens. He has the blond hair and blue eyes common among his people, but his beard grows in patchy so he keeps his face clean shaven. The smooth skin suits his pleasant features though and he is a handsome man by nearly any assessment. He dresses like a soldier, with Iomedae's sword-and-sun symbol prominently on display, and when prepared for trouble he wears a chainshirt and darkwood shield and carries a longsword at his side.
Background:
Wulfric grew up in Kenebris, worshiping in the shrines of Iomedae and listening, enraptured, to the stories of heroic crusaders. As a child he wanted nothing more than to become a sword knight and go off on epic quests himself. Unfortunately, he lacked the physical aptitude to become a sword knight. He did love stories though and had a knack for inspiring others by his retelling of them--and by the prayers and exhortations he shared in the Inheritor's shrines--so he studied that instead, hoping to one day inspire crusaders and write stirring tales about them.
In his studies, he developed a deep interest in heraldry and genealogies and (before the invasion) he gave a considerable amount of time to researching his own lineage. He was please to learn that while most of his ancestors were Ulfens from Sarkoris displaced by the Worldwound, his family tree was also dotted with brave men and women who came to Mendev to fight in the Crusades, including an aasimar slave who won his independence in the First Crusade (his great-great-great-grandfather, and Iuni's grandfather).
Since the attack on Armasse he has been putting his skills to use accompanying patrols and rescue parties around the city.
