Background Aukan had been born to the Goliath tribe near Altendorf and was the son of one of the merchants of the tribe who used to trade various goods in the local town. On one of these trips Aukan accompanied his father and managed to get lost. In his wanderings around town he eventually made his way to the local temple of Heironeous and stood there for a while fascinated by the statue depicting the god in the centre of the building. When his father eventually found him the young boy's life choice had already been made, something in the statue had called out to him. He began to accompany his father and other traders on every trip he could, going to the temple and speaking with the various priests there. Eventually he left the tribe altogether to live there, acting as a lowly acolyte in the temple. He worked up from this to the status of a paladin, eventually being sent out to work in some of the religious crusades being done in the world. He returned ten years later to find his old tribe as it currently is. Still traumatised from their captivity, many of them dead and their dignety striped from them. In an attempt to thank his people saviours (and also to get a chance at revenge) he has asked to accompany them on their quest to slay those who instigated this invasion.
