Having been born in the flames of the Courland rebellion and the 2nd Orenian Coalition War, Heinz’s parents planned to have him trained in the military in case any war needed him to be so. While starting out his life as a Heartlander merchant in the realm of the former Courland, he learned the ways of trickery and greed from his father. It wouldn’t be until the age of 16 when he would be trained in the military. While only doing basic training for two years, it wouldn’t be long after he finished that he would go into a battle for the first time.

 

At age 19, he participated as a soldier during the conquering of previous Urgan lands and the dissolution of the Holy Orenian empire and was noticed by army officials. He was promoted as a commander of a single brigade. He used this brigade during the 3rd crusade in which he did quite average, however he may over exaggerate his victories. He was given command of a siege brigade as well during the Siege of Vjorhelm. He would finish his military career at age 26 to move to a new land named “Atlas”

 

His new home would be named the kingdom of Renatus. There, he would again join the military as an Orenian remnant Officer, meaning he was an officer during the time of the Oreninan Empire. This game him a slight status boost when it came to others and, combined with his trickery and greed, he became rich. His greed would be his downfall though, as other officers and generals soon noticed this activity and forced him out of the army. His name and records would be burned. At the age of 40, he was now fairly wealthy and could do whatever he wanted. But instead of buying up forces to go to war with, he decided to retire. Building a small cottage out in the wilderness not far from the kingdom he once served. In present day, Heinz will be seen tending to his garden or reading a book in his chair near the window, enjoying a small fire burning in his firepit.

They duck into one of the shacks, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the small room, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town?" She begins, then pauses to study their face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a chair, “Where do you come from? What do you hope to make of yourself?”
