Backstory

Valdaris was born in the slums of Luskan to a pair of tieflings. His mother and father both worked as laborers to try and make ends meet, not easy in the slums or as tieflings. His father was murdered for coming across as insulting to an unknown person which was devastating to Valdaris. He hustled the streets to try and help his mother, taking whatever jobs he could find.....some on the unsavory side. He made careful inquiries to try and find out who murdered his father with little success other than getting roughed up more than a few times for "sticking his nose where it don't belong".

Valdaris was never a strong child and that did not change much as he grew up but he was quick, had some basic common sense, and despite everything seemed to be able to talk his way out of any situation. He heard about the bounty hunters guild and wondered how one goes about joining. Again after some inquiries he was initiated and taken under the wing of another tiefling guild member who over time awakened his latent gifts, guiding him into the path of a warlock. He was drawn to the blade and his grim and fatalistic demeanor drew him to venerating the Raven Queen and maybe he would find his vengeance after all.

Valdaris was a good bounty hunter, using his natural and learned gifts to be able to find his quarry, quietly make his way through any defenses, and take them down before turning them in. After a while of building trust within the guild he was able to glean information about his father's murderer and where to find him. He defied the guild to go rogue and take his vengeance after all this time. He successfully tracked down, cornered, and when the man attacked him was able to use his gifts to slay him in self-defense. It was finally over, or so he thought.

Returning to the guild like nothing had happened Valdaris found himself in front of the guildmaster who expelled him from the guild due to his actions. He didn't really care as he had learned enough to go his own way in his opinion. Going back home he found the hovel dark and the door forced open. Carefully making his way inside he came to the body of his mother with a dagger embedded in her back that was the same as one carried by the man who murdered his father......payback for his unsanctioned vendetta. He didn't have time to beat himself up for causing the death of his mother, knowing that he was next, so he grabbed anything useful and made his way out of Luskan. He burnt several contacts to be able to get out ahead of the trouble follwing him and made his way south.

Valdaris is ever watchful for signs of the friends of the man he justifiably killed while also moving south into different area looking to disappear but also to make his fortune and become stronger in his craft...
