It must be Wulfgar. It was to be the start of a new campaign, about ten years
ago; we had resolved to play Return to
the Temple of Elemental Evil, and one of my friends was to be the DM. For a
change, we tried to give a common background to all the characters, and we
decided that every one of them had to be a convicted, forced by a “good” church
to undertake the dangerous quest.
Wulfgar
was a young barbarian who had been sentenced to a lifetime of penal servitude
for killing someone in a tavern brawl. Before breaking out, Wulfgar managed to
learn a lot about the art of thievery, and after working for a while as the
bodyguard of a petty noble he was caught again and sentenced to death.
We
sadly played just one single session of that campaign, and Wulfgar never got to
fulfill his destiny. Or to die in some horrible way in the dungeons beneath the
evil temple...
