Humans are said to be agile and versatile creatures. They say one man can conquer the world by himself, if he can muster enough strenght.
Hollow was, in many ways, a great instance of agility and versatility. His way of life is weird to some yet understandable for few. Since he was orphan in the Markev from the beginning, some say he was an orphan of Greyspine Rebellion, Hollow never knew what was to be loved and caressed. That alone made the child merciless and inconsiderate of others. He was not the strongest but he was really durable as a kid. He would take a beating and could walk still. Because of him being inconsiderate, other children would often bully him. This, later, made him vigilant about injustice. In time, he learnt that listening is better than speaking. So he chatted very little, listened very much. Nobody could get acquinted with him in sense of friendship and that alone made him weird to most people.
In his youth, Hollow was a pretty boy. He was into woods, not into stones so he would spent most of his time in wild. Yet some pretty girls in his neighborhood would grab his hands when he came back, bake him cookies and wanted to get acquinted with him. He wouldn't talk, he wouldn't smile, he wouldn't flinch an eye. All his life, Hollow thought dangers were lurking in every shadow for everyone. In youth, his anxiety develloped into a disorder. Then he left for the wilds.
Adultry was peaceful for Hollow. He became a treasure hunter, learnt how to use bow and knife. He was taught by an old hunter to hunt, to skin and to butcher. He was non existent to the rest of world. From time to time, he hunted animals and sold them to local shopkeepers for little money. Always travelling from one place to the other, Hollow became an adventurer, an outsider to people, a wild man to the communities.
Though Hollow was a Heartlander yet he always acted like a Highlander. From young, he learnt about All-father and worshipped All-father for his good being. He avoided sins as much as he could, he prayed every night before sleeping. In his life, it was all about surviving. Avoiding warlike races like orcs, trolls and dwarves he only traded with humans and humans only especially between Ruriksgrad of Norland and Markev of Haense. He never got into the world of magic since his religion does not hold magic in high regard.
