Eion

Eion’s earliest memory was of the elves. Of them slaughtering everyone around him and fleeing desperately from them. After somehow escaping that horrible event, something he can’t remember. He was taken in by a group of priests living in a hidden monastery high in the mountains. There they trained his body, mind, and spirit. Mostly his body, as the energetic youth rarely sat still long enough for lectures or meditation. All that suddenly changed when the elves attacked again. Again, Eion managed to escape. Again, he couldn’t remember how. But with nothing other than one of the shiny rocks the priest mined in their hidden tunnels. Eion has set off both to escape from the elves and fulfill his lifelong dream of being a merchant. Naive and innocent he would seem the perfect target for those ne’er do wells of the world. They soon find out that the countless hours of combat training the priests used to try and reign in his energetic nature made that difficult. After meeting his good friend, Snake. Eion finds himself a full-fledged and completely legal merchant. He even has a very nice cart, one that is completely a proper “merchant’s cart” pulled by a fine steed. Now as a proper merchant he sets out on an adventure. This is actually just the back story for one of the characters I’m playing in a weekly D&D game. I figured it would be fun to flesh out his back story and maybe occasionally do a write-up for a session. Not expecting many to read it but if you do, I hope you enjoy it.
