Background
- Average son of an average Corinthian citizen, born and raised for war
- Myrmidon in the host of a legendary warrior
- Epic battle where all the other brothers-at-arms were gloriously killed
- Somehow survived three arrows to the torso, a spear to the abdomen, and other more superficial wounds.
- Found and nursed to health by a stranger, a looter who took pity (or maybe guided by fate)
- Had a wife back in [City]; didn't want to disappoint her by coming back with his shield, rather than on it, after all the goodbyes and such—he presumes she remarried.
- Wandered in search of mercenary work, hoping to find a properly epic conflict to take part in, so he can die properly, and rejoin his brothers in the afterlife
