Varik Shattersun

Varik is a far ranging and well traveled mercenary, a collector of information, oddities, and techniques, and last of a long dead and largely forgotten family known as House Shattersun. He prepares to undertake a new journey north in search of much of the same, as well as a fresh start after the tragic death of his mercenary family, Clan Shattersun, seeking those familial bonds once more, and allowing his wounds time to heal. Varik is a veteran of an archaeological mercenary expedition sponsored by Raaktar and the Filibusters, but lost the remainder of his fading family lineage to the forces of the Darashkov Network and the Inevitables on those bloodied fields in November of 1024, in the shadow of Tar-Ock-Doon.

Talk of magic has caught his ear, driving him further on to seek answers and truths following the massacre that befell his brothers and sisters, as some, he claims, were taken by an "unkillable monster." Seeking to find new purpose in the world, Varik comes to lend his services to those in need -- everything is doable, for the right price. But, just maybe, there can be more noble efforts beyond monetary compensation, and who knows what can be found in those darkened alleys and mudded fields?
