Biography (Please make it a decent two paragraphs long. Remember to add server lore, and events that happened to your character so that they don’t contradict history.):
Rikkert grew up under the tutelage of his grandfather Bernard Niemeyer in a small fishing village far away from the capital cities. Growing up without any knowledge of either of his parents, Rikkert learned about the world from his Grandfather. He taught him the basics of river fishing and where the fish congregate during dusk and dawn. Rikkert quickly grasped the concept and often brought in more than his grandfather could at the end of the day. He and his grandfather made a simple living, managing to get by with what fish they could sell in the market. Although his grandfather was contempt with his slow and simple life, Rikkert had questions that continued to grow.
One day on the way home, Rikkert’s grandfather split up with Rikkert to go into the market and get supplies for a special dinner. Rikkert continued home and was eager to be alone to find some clue as to his parents. Upon careful examination, he found a page of paper that had been wedged into a drawer. Using a slender stick to remove the paper, he discovered that it was actually a page ripped from what looked like a Journal. Although scribbled as if in hurry, and half covered in strange symbols, Rikkert could make out the entry as a letter of apology to Dwarven city of Kal’anger for reasons unknown. At the bottom of the torn parchment was a symbol, symmetric in nature, depicting twin pickaxes places over a hammer. Rikkert was puzzled, but at the time he could hear the closing of the property gate, and was unable to continue. He did not bring this up with his grandfather ever again, and instead wedged the paper back into place for safekeeping.
On the third day of the deep cold, Rikkert’s grandfather passed on to the next realm. Rikkert knew this would happen however, as he had been sick for many weeks. With the death of Rikkert’s last emotional tether to his hometown, he decided to give up his life as a fisherman and set off on a journey to find out where he came from, and quite possibly, where he belongs.
