Han Salvaase
Han Salvaase
Born in a well-civilised town, Han’s family was pretty well-to-do. His parents would scare him every night with fiendish stories, it did get boring soon. Han’s sister, Elevia didn’t believe in their parent’s stories and kept thinking that they were just trying to keep them in bed. Life was sweet. When he was around 6, an explosion was heard outside. Parents screaming everyone rushed out only to see a red fiend in a black cloak burning buildings. Trying to escape both parents were killed. His sister finally understood that these stories were true, leading her to be star struck. She then turned left and ran off. Han couldn’t see anything, he just ran and ran and ran. The last thing he saw was a soldier slicing his own arm. Soon he reached a town. Searching for food, he went to a smithy for shelter. A man, Derna, found him and took him in. Feeding him, he raised Han as his own. Han learnt the intricate arts of blacksmithing, making gold galore and creating inventions of his own. He soon forgot about his past, except for the name Elevia. Fiends, his parents were all gone. This was his life now.

Personal history
Born in a well-civilised town, Han’s family was pretty well-to-do. His parents would scare him every night with fiendish stories, it did get boring soon. Han’s sister, Elevia didn’t believe in their parent’s stories and kept thinking that they were just trying to keep them in bed. Life was sweet. When he was around 6, an explosion was heard outside. Parents screaming everyone rushed out only to see a red fiend in a black cloak burning buildings. Trying to escape both parents were killed. His sister finally understood that these stories were true, leading her to be star struck. She then turned left and ran off. Han couldn’t see anything, he just ran and ran and ran. The last thing he saw was a soldier slicing his own arm. Soon he reached a town. Searching for food, he went to a smithy for shelter. A man, Derna, found him and took him in. Feeding him, he raised Han as his own. Han learnt the intricate arts of blacksmithing, making gold galore and creating inventions of his own. He soon forgot about his past, except for the name Elevia. Fiends, his parents were all gone. This was his life now.
He was training when he realised that the ranged weapons they had were impractical and useless. Bows were cumbersome and crossbows were slow. He proceeded to make his own. Soon with a mix of gun powder and mechanical wonder, he made a firearm. His invention. He loved it and treasured it. It worked by pulling a trigger that shot a little hammer to metal creating a spark. This spark travelled over to a pushing mechanism that pushed the projectile off with a slight explosion with a powder that he named gunpowder. Practising this art he made and refined this allowing to deal a lot of damage quickly.
Derna was dying, he had taught all he knew to Han and was now growing old. As a final gift with tears in his eyes, he gave him a pet raven. Han called it Merne and the first thing he got from it was a scar.
Books, his sustenance. He would scour through the library looking for recipes and tidbits of knowledge of all kind. Once he found a book on fiends. It struck a small memory, which grew larger and larger. It revealed his childhood, his parents, his sister and what took it away from him. He was done with death. Derna died and although it was not due to fiends, he remembered his sadness and didn’t want others to suffer this way. Hunting. That’s what he would do. He soon learns hemocraft and trains with his firearms and Merne to kill these vile beasts.
Hemocraft, an ancient form of magic involved using one’s own vitality to curse and destroy. Fiends, those vile beasts would die to his magic and skill. He now needs to find his sister.

Quotes & Catchphrases
"..." ~ Han Salvaase
Session One
'It was a boring day yesterday since I lost my tools in the cave I need to buy new ones, that should drain my purse. Maybe more jobs will solve that crisis. Yes, I know, Journal, I need to go back to tracking the Order of the Pit but I do not think I'm ready to fight them. I can barely shoot my own gun properly. I'll train first. Why do you think I'm seeking jobs so much. Sigh. ~Han Salvaase.'
Later found some work in a tavern about a mage attack in a nearby town. Travelled off to there and saw a town filled with fires, and banditry. Taking down some of the bandits, I found the cause of the fires. A rogue apprentice mage. Taking him down was way enough. Got some money and some congratulations from the townspeople.
