NPC - Einar and Vit


NPC - Einar  and Vit

Einar is a Schnai warrior whose family was killed when an invasion of Gnolls swept down from the mountain upon his village. He had been away at the time serving the interests of the King by eliminating several problems in Ratik. Upon his return he was informed of the loss of his village and kin. 

After immediately leaving the King's service he traveled north, then further north, then beyond the last outposts of the Schnai among the Corrusk Mountains.

Einar is an immensely powerful warrior but neither a skilled mountaineer nor a tracker. Lost among the mountains trying to track down the Gnoll chieftain behind the raid on his village, he went a little mad in the wilderness. He had become a terror among the creatures of the mountains.

One day he came upon a party of Ogres who had wounded a giant white wolf with a thrown stone. The wolf had bloodied one ogre but the group was preparing to bring it down with nets and stones. That is when Einar attacked them. His great sword cut through their flesh like it was made of snow and he steaming bloody sections.

The wolf was down and unconscious so Einar brought it back to his camp and cared for it. In it he saw the spirit of his lost kin and named the wolf Vit. 

Vit is of  unusual size and intelligence. He is absolutely loyal to Einar and understands the basics of what Einar's words. The pair hunt the Corrusk Mountains but descend to the Schnai lands while Einar still searches for the Gnoll tribe and vengeance.
