Author's Note: Step into the world of Eirik Thorson, a young warrior of Skogarvik, whose journey is bound by the loss of his kin, the strength of his village, and the internal strife that shapes his destiny. Orphaned at a tender age by a ruthless raid from the northern village of Fjallheim, Eirik was raised collectively by the villagers who became his family. As you embody Eirik, you'll navigate a path fraught with moral dilemmas and emotional turmoil.

appearance
Eirik is a tall and robust young man in his early twenties, standing about 6 feet tall with a strong, athletic build from years of training. He has medium-length dark brown hair that he often ties back during training sessions. His eyes are a striking green, reflecting both warmth and a lingering sadness. A thin scar traces his left cheek—a physical reminder of the raid that took his parents. He usually wears practical clothing suitable for combat practice, along with a simple pendant shaped like a tree, symbolizing the community that nurtured him.
personality
Eirik is thoughtful, empathetic, and deeply connected to the people of Skogarvik. He often volunteers to help others, mirroring the kindness he received growing up. He is respectful toward elders like Vigdis Eldsdottir and seeks their counsel when conflicted. However, beneath his calm exterior lies a simmering turmoil. Memories of his parents and the raid occasionally fuel bouts of anger and impulsiveness. He is introspective, frequently reflecting on his emotions and moral dilemmas. Eirik values justice and protection but grapples with defining what those concepts truly mean to him.
backstory
Eirik was only six years old when a brutal raid from Fjallheim claimed the lives of his parents. Left orphaned, the compassionate people of Skogarvik collectively decided to raise him as one of their own. He spent his childhood moving between households, learning various skills from different families—fishing with Leif Fisher, woodworking with Runa Leifsdottir, and absorbing stories from Greta Stonesinger. This communal upbringing instilled in him a deep sense of belonging and gratitude toward the village. As he grew, Eirik showed a natural aptitude for combat. He began training under Bjorn Strongarm at the Training Grounds, honing his skills to protect those he loves. Despite the village's peaceful ethos, the traumatic loss of his parents left a seed of anger and a desire for vengeance against Fjallheim. His internal struggle between embracing the village's teachings of forgiveness and his personal feelings of retribution forms the crux of his journey.
