Hupprecht Ziegler

History
A half-spirit, half-human hybrid, destined to become a paladin, just like his human father. He was but a mere child when his mother was ambushed and killed, so his father raised him by himself, teaching him about the ways of the paladin. He was taught everything about the oath of time, where one dedicates themselves to the Gods of Time themselves, Urd, Verdandi and Skuld. The family had a small temple made by his father, decorated with three dragon heads made of stone, each representing one of the gods. Similiar to his dad, Hupprecht grew an interest in building statues. He and his father would go collect the materials one day and build little statues the other.

Shortly before Hupprecht grew 18 to become paladin, his father carried on a disease, which ended up in him dying. Hupprecht was now alone, winter had already come and a blizzard broke out, the strongest in the last few decades. The crops had frozen, all the animals nearby seemingly had disappeared and the blizzard slowly tore on their wooden house. One night, as he was about to freeze to his death, a group of nomads find him, taking cover in the remains of what he used to call his home. They settled for the night and a girl, Erika, about a year older, took care of him. She gave him a blanket, food and drinks, aswell as reassuring him of his safety. The next morning, they headed off, along with Hupprecht. When asked for his name, he acted like he had forgotten, as he wasn't sure weather to trust them or not. They called him "ghost", as he'd soon bond with the bunch and follow them around on their adventured, whilst praying each night to his gods.

A few years had passed and Hupprecht had started a relationship with Erika as they parted ways with their group. He became better at building statues and kept up with praying to Urd, Verdandi and Skuld every day. Erika would ask him to teach her more about his oath and requested to join him in his prayers. They became engaged. Everything was seemingly perfect, they were happy, they built themselves a home and even a temple similiar to the one Hupprecht remembers it from his childhood. But apparently it was too perfect.

A parasite, spreading rapidly around the area, even to and from the animals. The two quickly quarantine themselves, but Erika gets caught up and infected by it. It didn't take more than a week for Erika, the love of his life, to pass away, leaving Hupprecht broken and infected by the parasite, as there was no way avoiding.

In his last moments, Urd, the god of the past, gets summoned from the skies and it offers Hupprecht a second chance, an infinite life, but at the cost of him being cursed to never forget anything ever and Urd gaining access to his body.
