Culric is a powerful wizard from the far southern province of Tataria. He possesses great magical power and is known
and respected all throughout Narvidia. His heroic deeds and service to countless individuals and virtually every sovereign thoughout Narvidia has elevated him to the status of a living legend.
In addition to his magical abilities, Culric has the unique ability (or curse) of profound empathy. He is able to feel deeply the emotions and physical pain of others in his immediate vicinity.
At the age of seventeen he was shot in the back of the head during a
Neffalite raid. Miraculously, he did not die. Early in his recovery from the head wound, Culric was nearly driven mad by the
constant waves of emotion he received from others. Soon, however, he was able to accept and use his unusual abilities.
Culric has spent the majority of this life exploring the vast land of Narvidia. In his travels toward the northern
forests he came across the human barbarian Thorfinn, who
joined the wizard after his home village had been destroyed. Shortly after, the two of them rescued
Dhinn, and archer-scout from Dellcove, from
a Lycanthian stronghold. The three of them are known
as "Culric’s Company," and their deeds are known throughout the land.
Culric is a loner by nature, and often works on his own, sending Dhinn and Thorfinn off on missions that don't require his particular talents.
He is extremely wise and intelligent, and possesses surprising strength. He fights well with the staff and is able
to turn his empathy to his advantage when confronting and enemy. He tends to be calm and quiet, but his empathy can
grate at him and make him irritable, as he is almost constantly in pain. He is rational and cool-headed, but extremely
volatile when angered.
