Appearance and Character

Varamyr's raven-black hair and steely eyes mark him clearly as a descendant of the Blackfang line. His mask of bone and powerful build make him truly stand out among his subjects and peers - which is in no way lessened by his rather imposing stature, as he stands well above most men.

He is a man who values power and victory over nearly all else. Perhaps the only exception is his family - he has witnessed too much of his kin's blood spilled to allow any further deaths, and will go to extreme lengths to protect and avenge what family he has left. To this end he exercises firm control over those subservient to him, demanding unwavering loyalty and obedience from his subordinates, with the hope that knowledge of consequences will deter any attacks against his family. He sees it as the place of all lands he desires to be obedient to him and his family.

History

Born the second child to then-chieftain Toregg Blackfang, Varamyr spent the early days of his youth training with his axes, in the hopes of impressing his elder brother Alfyn, and earning his father's respect as a warrior. Though he never expected to lead his tribe, he took a close interest in the matters of war, and developed some impressive skills as a commander. When he was 17, Orell 'One-eye' and a group of fighters attacked Varamyr's home in the night. Varamyr was entrusted by his father to take his young sisters Holly, Morna, and Grisella - each 7, 5, and 2 respectively - to safety while Toregg and Alfyn fought off the attackers.

Unfortunately, Grisella didn't make it through that night, as she was taken by the cold. When the three remaining siblings made it back to their home they found their parents and eldest brother dead. They barely had time to mourn however, as Orell's men soon returned, causing them to flee. Varamyr and his sisters were forced into exile for years, as he gathered support from those driven out by Orell, and those surviving who were still loyal to his father. When he wasn't hunting or gathering support, Varamyr trained. Not just with his axes, but with his mind, going from a proficient commander to a masterful general, and a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield.

It took 14 years of exile for Varamyr to establish anything close to enough force to retake that which he now truly saw as his tribe by right. Those 14 years led to one fateful night, when he would lead those he had assembled in an assault on Orell's home, which stood where Varamyr's once had, before it was reduced to nothing but ash and memories. It was not a long fight - Orell was not a strong fighter himself, he preferred to hide behind lackeys, none of whom could stand up to Varamyr in combat. When Orell was dead he proclaimed himself more than any ordinary chieftain, and as such he named himself the Lord Reaper, and ordered his men to search the town, and ensure anyone loyal to Orell was killed, their bodies burned where all could witness the consequences of betraying the Lord Reaper.
