Backstory

A young man, by the name of Nicodemus Archer, he was born to a family of 2, a father belonging to the Silver Flame and a mother who was working for the town. He had a nice and very pleasant childhood, where he played with other children in the lake nearby.

Thanks to his father's upbringing, who was a somewhat strict but very kind man, Nicodemus (named so in honor of his grandfather) was inspired to join the Silver Flame as well. By the time he had done so, he was old enough to go to high school, and was sent to Morgrave as part of a Scholarship from an agreement with Morgrave High and the Silver Flame.
