Kazerick Terradil

Kazerick Grew up in a small fishing village, he worked for is father and uncle repairing boats among other things the fishermen needed fixed. Kazerick was a very curious boy, when he was not helping his father and uncle he was poking around the village and surrounding woods seeking something to fulfill his curious nature. When Adventures stopped by the village, a rare occurrence, he would always go up and talk to them about their adventures. Some where happy to talk to this hyper child who tugged on the cloaks of fully armed adventures, others where less kind.

One night during a powerful storm while Kazerick was out with his father helping some towns folk secure their fishing boats he saw, as a great flash lit up the sky and land, a figure in the distance. Kazerick told his father, who peer thru the darkness. When another flash illuminated the figure once more Kazerick could see the figure was a man, who seemed hurt, for he was limping and clutching his shoulder. His father and a few other towns folk ran to the man, Kazerick naturally followed. When Kazericks father got to him he saw that the man had three arrows stuck into him, two in his back, and one in his shoulder. He also had other wounds but they where only scratches compared to the arrows. Kazericks father brought the man into his house and sent Kazerick to wake the village healer, an old grumpy woman Kazerick hated because she was always mean to him. The old woman grabbed her cane and started beating Kazerick when he woke her. It took him a minute to get what he needed to say out and when he did the old lady cursed and began to gather up some of her supplies….slowly, Kazerick told her to hurry once but only succeeded in getting hit with the old ladies cane a few more times. Finally a bruised Kazerick and Old lady returned to Kazericks home and began work.

Three days passed and the man did seems to be getting better he had a fever and slept restlessly most of the day. In the daylight, Kazerick observed he was a rather tall man with messy dark brown hair that he usually wore under a plain dark green hat with a pure white feather in it. When no one was looking Kazerick rummaged around in the mans bag and found many interesting things, the one thing that stood out to Kazerick was that the lute strapped to the mans backpack. It was slightly damaged from a crossbow bolt but looked in much better condition then the man laying next to it.

A week past and the towns folk where preparing for the yearly festival when the man walked out of Kazericks house. The towns folk crowded the man and began bombarding the poor man with questions and many of the females where trying to lead him back into the house, saying he still needs rest and all the things woman instinctually say while nurturing someone. The man health got better by the day and he began to tell his story of how he was ambushed by gnolls on the way to this town and lost two of his party members the third fled while he made a distraction of some kind and he barely made it away. He also told other tails of his adventures around the world in such depth and detail that it came alive in the minds of his listeners. When his lute was fixed he played music for the people at the yearly festival and they danced and felt the troubles of the world leave them. They say that it was the best festival they had in years! Kazerick was awestruck by this man he followed the man around everywhere he went but the man didn’t care he often spoke to Kazerick and told him things about the ancient days of Dragons and sung Kazrick songs of epic battles between the Dragons.

Months past and the man told the towns people he must depart before the winter, Kazerick was heart broken that his new idol was leaving and asked to travel with the man but Kazericks father said no, it was too dangerous for a boy who hasn’t seen even thirteen winters. The man agreed with Kazericks father and told him he would return someday and the next day he departed.

Years past and the man did not return, Kazerick grew much over the years he lost his hyper curiosity and it was substituted with a longing for adventure and travel. On the eve of his eighteenth birthday a storm like the one that blew when Kazerick met the man so many years ago. Kazerick was again helping his father and towns folk with the boat. He peered into the darkness where he once saw the man but there was nothing but a field now. Kazerick though once during a great flash he saw a figure far away in the distance but he thought it was his eyes playing tricks on him and went back to work. He awoke the next morning to see a old lute next to his bed with a note. He looked around the room hurriedly and then picked up the lute and read the note "To understand forget" Kazerick turned the note over but it was blank. Kazerick puzzled over these words but didn’t understand. He picked up the lute and strummed it and a clear sound echoed off the walls. Kazerick improved as the weeks past until one day, much to his fathers dismay left for a life of adventure.
