Barric Renfield

in: Characters

Barric Renfield was a citizen of the Archduchy of Lynnmore, currently residing within Tarnwick. The Duchess Ardamine Rhodes invited him to Tarnwick pulling him out of his life of aimlessly wondering Rathnir. After leaving Lynnmore, he became a citizen of the Kingdom of Aurora.

Early Life
Barric was born in a brothel and quickly given away to an orphanage. He eventually aged out of said orphanage and took to the streets thieving and fighting. One of his attempts at theft brought him to a fight with a man named Garth Renfield, who instead of killing the lad took recruited him into a sellsword company called the Freeblade Company. Barric learned many things through the years with the mercenaries, and Garth became a pseudo-father figure to him. One night the Freeblades were attacked by a rival mercenary band. Barric took an arrow and fled the battle abandoning the people who took him in. Ashamed of what he had done, he took for himself the name of Renfield and wandered Rathnir for many years, until he was invited into the city of Tarnwick of the Archduchy of Lynnmore.

Flight from Tarnwick
Not long after settling himself in Lynnmore, a troubling situation arose within the leadership of the Archduchy. The Duchess and several of the nobility disappeared on a whim making their displeasure with the geopolitical climate of Rathnir known. Before leaving, the Duchess, Ardamine Rhodes, named Norville Rogers and Andrea Vitruvi Stewards and Regents of the realm. Not long after their departure, certain citizens of Lynnmore began to let their ambitions known. The title of Duke was open for the taking, and the ambitious were making their desires public. Saddened by the departure of the leadership, Barric packed his belongings and left Tarnwick heading south west. He did not desire being caught up in a political power struggle. The wayward Barric traveled half way across the world until he reached the Kingdom of Aurora located in the Empire of Uldarash. With his sights set on settling within Northport, he once again had hope that he would find a place to belong.
