Personal history


Born and raised in Sartinia in the far north east of the known contested territories, they are within striking range of Erayax territory. Cerwin comes from a long line of Ravagers and Knights, all proud devotees to the Barracks of Steel as he has been.

He had waited until into his second decade to move on and see what else the world had to offer. He knew to avoid the Geldheim borders to the south. He travelled widely in the free lands for his entire life, doing jobs as a sell sword and serving only himself.

He chanced upon Red Company on a mutual mission and, since they were not in competition they worked together. He didn't know the people he worked with and they didn't know him. They only told him their House name and that they were sell swords.

Cerwin then sought them out in Doomsayer's Keep and after a series of "Test" missions he found himself comfortably employed doing what he does best. And, at the Keep he can be as social or in solitude as he so chooses.

Education


From those wiser than him over the period of a long life.

And a long life...

Employment


Currently employed as a fighter for Red Company, a non aligned house of sell swords led by an entrepreneurial sharp shooting Major of some repute.

A comfortable enough job for him in this time of life.

Accomplishments & Achievements


Having grown up under constant threat of the Erayax, every new day is enough of an accomplishment for Cerwin ultimately.

Death of a siblings at the hands of the Erayax whilst still children.

His first kill, the Erayax who killed his siblings

Abandoning village in same event and then returning in the aftermath.

Intellectual Characteristics

Morality & Philosophy


Try to do the least worst thing...

Personality Characteristics
