Character Information (long biography)
HISTORY

Connavar Demonblade, son of Varaconn was a child born of destiny, baptised in fire and entangled in a tale of intrigue and mystery far deeper than he possibly imagined. On the first night of his birth, a mystic had come to his father to give him is 'soul-name'.

The seer claimed that "This child will change the world".

As Varaconn stepped out into the night, a fierce storm was brewing, lightning tearing apart the night sky. Suddenly he realised that the sword he possessed would attract the lightning and threw the blade as far as he could, striking the earth and embedding itself half-length. It was then he realised what his son, Connavar, would have a for 'soul-name'. Sword In The Storm.

A decade later, the young Conn was already showing signs of being different to the other children in the village. He seemed quicker, both in thought and reflex, and stronger too, capable of out-running boys several years older. It were these abilities that brought him to the attention of 'The Merchant'. A man who travelled across the realms trading and bringing tales from over the seas. He realised he was special and asked Varaconn, First Warrior his permission for Conn to accompany him. He said he would train him, educate him and give him knowledge, everything that a leader would need.

When asked "Why?", the little merchant merely smiled.

He said,"Your father was the First. I am the Second. We live for you."

A further eight years passed, during which time Connavar grew stronger and faster. His keen mind learnt languages, script, military tactics and developed a sound knowledge of the arcane, although he would never admit it. The Merchant had taught him the use of many weapons, skilled with all, he preferred the two-handed sword and long bow as his personal weapons. Throughout his training, he wanted to ask the question that his father had asked eight years ago. "Why?". It was then he returned home. He saw nothing but ashes. A cold rage built up within him, which he quelled savagely; a hunter cannot hunt when angry, he remembered the words of his tutor. Did the merchant know about this? Is this why he asked him to leave? To prepare him for a journey?

Searching under the rubble of what was his childhood home. He discovered a chest. Inside was a suit of golden armour, silver-laced steel gauntlets, a pair of heavy boots and helm. At the bottom of the chest lay an object wrapped in oilskin. Carefully, he peeled the leaves back to reveal the most magnificent sword he had ever lay eyes upon. Grasping the hilt, he cut and thrust against imaginary assailants. The balance perfect and the blade razor sharp, 'World's End' were the runes written on the blade. He stepped out into the sunlight. West was Candlekeep. Although not sure what part he has to play, the answers would begin.

It was there, that a Legend was born.

It was then, that he earnt the title of what they call him now.
