Story
THORVIN THE DRUNKEN
Wo das Licht nicht reicht stand THORVIN THE DRUNKEN, Tavern Owner and Brewmaster, ein Kind von Dragons, getragen von Schicksal und Geheimnis.
THORVIN war nicht wie die anderen. Nicht besser, nicht schlechter - nur anders. Eine Melodie in einer anderen Tonart. Ein Farbton, den nur wenige sehen konnten.
Das Leben hatte THORVIN geformt, wie es alle formt - durch Freude und Schmerz, durch Hoffnung und Verzweiflung, durch die tausend kleinen Momente, die ein Leben ausmachen.
Aber da war etwas in THORVIN. Etwas, das sich weigerte, sich fügen zu wollen. Eine Stimme, die flüsterte, wenn alle anderen schwiegen. Ein Licht, das brannte, wenn die Welt dunkel wurde.
Thorvin didn’t fail to prevent the battle, he caused it. A careless comment he made while drunk sparked the conflict that haunts him. He has never told anyone, and the guilt is slowly killing him.. Das war die Last, die THORVIN trug. Nicht schwer genug, um zu brechen. Aber schwer genug, um zu spüren. Immer da. Immer gegenwärtig.
Die anderen in Dragons sahen es manchmal. In den Augen, die zu weit blickten. In den Händen, die zitterten. In der Stille zwischen den Worten.
Aber sie fragten nicht. Denn so war die Art ihrer Welt. Jeder trug seine Last. Jeder seine Geheimnisse. Jeder seine ungeschriebene Geschichte.
Und THORVIN? THORVIN ging weiter. Tag für Tag. Durch die Labyrinthe von Dragons, durch die verschlungenen Pfade von Macht und Pflicht und Überleben.
Wartend. Hoffend. Träumend von dem Tag, an dem das Geheimnis gelüftet würde - oder für immer begraben bleiben würde.

Backstory
Thorvin was once a respected warrior and advisor to a great wyrm, but after failing to prevent a terrible battle that killed thousands, he retreated into drink. He eventually turned his self-destruction into a business, opening a tavern where all races are welcome and no one asks about your past. He claims to be happy, but the claim rings hollow.

Thorvin brews his famous (and infamous) drinks, serves customers of all races in his cavernous tavern, listens to their problems, and drinks himself to sleep each night. He moves his establishment periodically to serve different communities.
Secret
Thorvin didn't fail to prevent the battle, he caused it. A careless comment he made while drunk sparked the conflict that haunts him. He has never told anyone, and the guilt is slowly killing him.
