Character Development: Magus Vorsutus of Flambeau (Player: Vortigern)

[Vortigern]

@RafaelB

Merging the mercenary captain and the kennel master idea: a mercenary who likes to train dogs on his spare time. He wants to train a magical one, and joining the covenant gives him more chance of finding and capturing one. Could work with Vorsutus.

@RafaelB what did you have in mind here?

Just as food for some inspiration, here are some ideas that I can't get out of my head until I write them down.

• The Lombard/Lambaird Covenfolk are mostly from a formerly Royal line of Leinster, Ui Broin a branch of Ui Faelain. They lost their lands to the Normans and since have become the Covenfolk of Lombard. (TCI pg 63)

• Lombard is home to the druidic magical lineage of Raghallach as well as being a Flambeau Covenant. It isn't out of the realm of possibility that some of this druidic knowledge seeped into the Covenfolk.

You could go as light or as deep into a kind of "beast master" or "mercenary captain" concept either one as you wished and have plenty of room to develop things and grow in whatever direction you were interested in. And all while having a very deep and intuitive connection with Vorsutus/Eadric, perhaps knowing him for more than even the length of his Apprenticeship.

Eadric was apprenticed to several of the experts in various skilled trades during his background, one idea that occurs to me is what if this character was one of them, making him a former mentor?
