Description:
Rather aged-looking yet handsome elf 5'10'' tall with red eyes and long brown hair that flow down his shoulders. He wears long light-colored robes with cuirass on top of them, metal boots and one metal glove with short spikes protruding from knuckles. On Melchior's back is ornate greatsword with hefty triangular pommel that have holy symbol of Gorum carved into it. In contrast to his gentle appearance he speaks in surprisingly deep voice.
Personality:
Melchior is self-righteous and sees his own judgement as the only truth there is. He hates injustice and people who force others against their will. He is not hot-headed tho and usually waits for most opportune time to strike (for wich got called "The Serpent" by people that had a chance to fight alongside him). Melchior disilkes gambling, but quite fond of strong drink, expensive food and good company. In fight he tend to shout elaborate threats and employ unconventional tactics.
Backstory:
Melchior was found in the forest as a child by hunter. He was making a living with his foster father and sister by hunting, untill series of unfortunate events made him embark on the journey to seek power with wich he can fight wrongdoers. Melchior lost his fate in any government or ruling, and see most of it as way to oppress and pray on common folk. On his travels he met cleric of Gorum and after learning about Lord in Iron and how he looks over all battles fought, he started to shout his name as sort of charm, before combat. Eventually this granded him divine powers, wich made him into devote follower of Gorum. Arriving in Rook by ship, he did not managed his funds and now looking for a job where he can do right things and get paid for it.
