Theodoric Elucardson

Overview
A nomad for most of his life, Theodoric is the only known son of Elucard Aeldhelm. His father was highly intelligent despite his nomadic lifestyle and so passed down his knowledge onto his son over the years. At twenty-three, Theodoric was forced to flee from the tribe his father created and seek refuge within the settled regions of Kylorne.

Adolescent Years
Theodoric was born into a life of constant movement. Many years before, his father, Elucard, lived on a farmstead within a realm now many miles away. Elucard's parents were poor, but Elucard was naturally intelligent and found himself inside of a book for much of his life before it was stolen away from him when his farmstead was raided and he was forced to flee. In fear, Elucard never stopped moving. He would never stay anywhere more than a day. It was when he was in his early twenties when he stumbled across a tiny village of locals and met the love of his life. This village is where he would stop for over a year for close to a decade. Here, he would have Theodoric. His only son would become his obsession and soon after his birth, he would finally leave the village in fear of his child's life. For the rest of his life, Elucard taught Theodoric everything he knew and even got him new books from local towns. Elucard would also amass quite a following. In just a few years, he had a couple dozen men women and children who joined his nomadic life. This tribe would grow to almost one hundred by the time Theodoric was fifteen years old. By this time, he had mastered the nomadic skills of hunting and foraging. His father had also taught him on a lot of topics such as mathematics, philosophy, and statesmanship. Theodoric also learned important skills such as carpentry, masonry, and metalworking from the hundreds of hamlets, towns, and the few cities that the tribe had visited. Theodoric aspired to settling down and using his developing skills to make a better life for those of his tribe. Elucard aspired this as well, but always told Theodoric that the right moment would come when the tribe could settle. When that was he would never find out.
