====== Xavorin Aldriksson ======

Xavorin Aldriksson had always led a simple life.  Growing up in a small Dwarven community in the mountains, all he could hope for was to one day receive a pair of mountain goats from his father, to marry his dwarven sweetheart, and to start a family of his own.   

Xavorin and his family were close.  They had to be growing up in the harsh conditions above the tree line in the mountains; sometimes they had to severely ration their food just to make it through a bitter cold winter. Xavorin and his brother Thaovin were the closest of friends. In some sense Thaovin was his only friend, since the closest family was over 15 miles away.  Although the best of friends, the brothers were always fighting, arguing over the smallest of differences.  The two dwarves where very competitive, testing each other to see who could climb the steepest cliff face, or who would be the first to complete the 30 mile hike through the Silvergleam pass.

After a particularly bitter fight the boys had not been spoken to each other for over four weeks.  At the end of her wits, Husmor Aldriksson sent Xavorin and Thaovin off to Windsbitter Plateau to find new grazing for the mountain goats. And to mend their differences...  Only Xavorin returned.

Without a word to either of his parents, Xavorin packed his few belongings.  Husmor and Pader Aldriksson pleaded with their son, but to no avail.  With a single tear in his eye, Xavorin kissed both of his parents on the forehead, and as he walked down the path from the stone cabin, he turned and whispered: “I go to Karak Kadrin”.

The Aldrikssons saw neither Xavorin nor Thaovin ever again.    

===== About Xavorin =====

{{ :xavorin.jpg?300|}}

**Were you born in Lockenport, or elsewhere?**

Hmmph...  My family: serfs of the local Thane.  My familiy stay in the mountains near the Silver Mines of Thogrim Wyrmsbane, where they herd mountain goats, and make posset.  I was born and raised in the mountains, and for many years knew only the few local families of clan Wyrmsbane.        
 
**Do you have a big family? Do you stay in touch with them?**

Only my mother and father remain.  Of my brother, I will not speak… 
 
**What are your religious beliefs?**

Several years ago I left home and family to go to Karak Kadrin, the Slayerkeep, leaving my devastated family behind.  At Karak Kadrin I entered the shrine of Kord, shaved my head, but for a crest, burnt the shirt on my back, and forever forswore the use of armour.  I was given an axe from the keep’s weapons store, for I could not afford one of my own. 

After a year of arduous training, I received my first sacred tattoo, and then I began my quest for doom in battle, to die for my great shame, for the sin I committed.   

I now I pay to Kord to guide my arm and help me find the courage to face my own death.  May I die with my sin fixed within my mind, so I may be allowed into Kord’s hallowed halls, for otherwise I will be doomed to eternity as a restless spirit.

**Do you have any famous ancestors?**

No, we were a serf family.

**What sort of education or training have you had?**

During the year at Karak Kadrin, I learned to read the rune script, and received religious instruction so that I could prepare for my death.  I still cannot read common, although I did learn to speak it.   

Most of my time was spent on weapons training and in hand-to-hand combat.

**Do you have a trade (other than "adventuring")?**

Grmph…   goat herd, but I left that life…

**Do you have many enemies?**

All my opponents have died in battle.  If they had not, I would have already completed my quest…

**What style of clothes do you favour?**

I keep my head shaved, but for a strip that goes from the top of my forehead back to the neck.  This crest I dye orange and spike up with pig grease. My hands, arms, chests and back are tattooed in blue, and I won’t wear a shirt or armour. These are the traditions of the Slayers of Karak Kadrin.

**Have you ever killed someone?**

I am a [[Dwarf Slayers|Slayer]], what do you think that means?

**What is your opinion of the Lockenport authorities?**

As long as they do not interfere with my quest, I have no issue.
