Kaelen, the Frost Reaver

Old version of removed Kaelen, the Frost Reaver

The tundra belongs to those who take it by force. Show no mercy, for none will be shown to you.

— Kaelen

Age: 45

Race: Human

Occupation: Mercenary Commander and Scourge of the Tundra

Physical Description

Kaelen is a towering and fearsome warrior, his muscular frame hardened by decades of combat. His pale skin is marred by numerous scars, and his frosted black hair is streaked with white. His icy blue eyes radiate an unsettling intensity, and his expression is one of perpetual menace.

Kaelen wears heavy, rune-inscribed armor crafted from dark steel and adorned with shards of ice, granting him an almost spectral appearance on the battlefield. His weapon, Icebane, is a massive greataxe forged from enchanted glacial metal, its blade radiating a deadly chill that freezes flesh and fractures steel.

Personality

Kaelen is ruthless, cunning, and driven by a fierce determination to impose his will on the frozen wastes. He respects strength above all else and despises weakness, often using fear to maintain control over his band of mercenaries, the Frost Reavers.

While brutal, Kaelen is not without a sense of honor—he respects those who prove themselves worthy in battle and will occasionally spare those who show exceptional valor. However, his primary loyalty is to himself and his ambition to carve a legacy in the tundra’s unforgiving landscape.

History

Born in a small village near the Shard Sea, Kaelen grew up in a world of hardship, shaped by the tundra’s cruelty. As a youth, he fought to protect his village from frost trolls and raiders, earning a reputation as a ferocious fighter. After losing his family to an Abyssal incursion, Kaelen abandoned his home and forged a new path as a mercenary.

Over time, Kaelen amassed a following of like-minded warriors, forming the Frost Reavers, a mercenary company that became infamous for its brutal efficiency and unyielding tactics. The group quickly gained notoriety for taking on impossible missions, including hunting Frost Giants and battling Abyssal creatures.

Kaelen’s rise to power was cemented when he claimed Icebane from the corpse of a Frost Giant chieftain. The weapon, imbued with ancient magic, has since become his symbol of dominance and a source of his legend.
