Backstory

An orphan, Vvesh grew up among the holy brotherhood of the Wyrm and lived among them until his majority, After that, he was turned out as was customary at the orphanage. Always smaller than his fellows, Vvesh was nonetheless a scrapper, always fighting bigger and stronger dragonborn.

No one was surprised how quickly trouble found him once he was on his own.

The brothers of the local monastery were very nearly his salvation, teaching him discipline and restraint. But that all ended when he found her.

He was sure she was the reincarnation. He swore to follow her into hell, and that's not far from what happened.
