Of Origin:
Woreich came into the lands an orphan. His mother perished days before
he would have naturally arrived and he was cut from her womb as she
succumbed to a poison malady of unknown vector.

The entirety of the village was at the knell of death. Whether by malice
or innocuous, a poison or blight lay siege to the usually hardy dwarves.
Smoke and stench had lingered in a haze for an entire growing season,
the burn pit of bodies smoldering and added to daily.

No priest, no remedy, had yet been discovered. None would.

By the time Woreich reached his second birthing day, everyone in the
quarantined village was dead. Out of a hundred or sodwarves, only
he survived, scarred and mottled by the poison.

Unwelcome in Akan, his distant kin at least shepherded the young child
to Voralia where he found some semblance of safety in the shining city.

Of Guild:
Distraught at the injustice and loss of his world, a zealousness took
hold of him and he found himself guided to crusade within the guild
of shaman.

Of Sphere:
Perhaps contributing to his refusal to being stillborn, or in general
dwarven stubbornness, Woreich bears a Dedication rivaled by few.
There is no thing, nor goal, idea, or principle, that once he puts
his mind to he will not seek to accomplish.

Of Religion:
He is drawn to the Eternal Witch Ishuli. He is burdened with knowing
what and who contributed to the ruin of his village and life. Was it
nefarious? What could have been done to prevent or remedy the ailing?
These sort of questions plague his mind and take his focus. He will
seek out and document what he can of such poisons and maladies of
the lands along with what can be understood of them, and notably ways
to relieve, mitigate, or even cure such.

Of Venoms:
He bears the scars of the blight both visually and internally, his
skin and eyes mottled since clawing his way toward birth, and his mind
fixated on the above.

He shrugs off toxins and disease beyond the constitution of his
heritage, and in his anger at injustice seeks to turn that focused
anger upon those who disrupt the peaceable simple life of society
and community.

Of Tribunal:
Woreich will protect that which was stolen from him. Community.
Noble, simple work. Family.

He will keep vigilance over the cities.

But he yearns to one day prove himself competent enough to stamp out
criminals as a Vindicator of the Spire.

Of Vengeance:
Beneath his composure is a focused desire for revenge, not only for
the experiences of his life, but as a conduit for others. It is a
holy righteousness against the forces of discord and strife that
puts the innocent and noble at risk. He will meet a foe where they
are, complete in the safety and sanctity of his own faith, and force
upon them that which they do to him and others.
