Gashnak / Maurice leChavilier - Adventurer

Background

Maurice leChavilier is from the province of Brudic, ruled by her majesty Lady Sera Brudic. This province is just over two hundred years old, having been founded in the year 742 Post Rellian. It is a land covered by dense, tangled woods, where many creatures, elf, faerie, orc and others exist in a harmony almost found no where else throughout the lands of Corvel.


Maurice leChavilier was born to elven parents. They taught him tolerance and wisdom and to appreciate those different from himself. Humans, gnomes, sprigs, faeries, even orcs are all beings that have importance and value. Though Maurice knows he is superior to many other races he does his best to maintain a level of humility and not let his natural abilities make others feel like they are insignificant. Everyone is here for a reason, even if they are here only as a negative example.

He went with his close friend Gashnak (an orc) into military service to serve Brudic, Corvel, and King Cedric II. They were with a force of skirmishers who fought in the Cursed Forest battling the Goblin marauders that would come down from Raa'lthuk and their chaos allies. During this time he and Gashnak were met and befriended by the fair Earil-Gania, a half elven woman of beauty, wit and skill. Both Maurice and Gashnak vied for the beautiful Earil's favor she eventually went the only way she could. She became the lover of the flamboyant Maurice.

A tragic battle ended Maurice's time with the forest warriors. While on patrol on the norther border, near Cursed Wood, the force he was with was ambushed by a large number of Goblin raiders. The battle was incredible and of the thirty warriors who had been attacked, only three survived. Both Gashnak and Earil-Gania had been killed in the fighting, and though Maurice had fought bravely, the remaining survivors thought he had not done his duty.

With his two closest friends gone he resigned from the Imperial Wardens. Remaining in Brudic was too much to bear and he found he could not bring himself to return to Sword Keep where he had grown up. The memories of his lost companions was just too painful. Instead he went south to Greyhelm to find adventure and in doing so, forget the tragedies that had happend in the tangle of Cursed Wood.
