Name: Calick
Age: 35

The large red jewel in his forehead is a magical item which makes him stand out from the crowd.

Distinguishing Features: See picture, however on his right arm is the mark of Torm, denoting him as a champion of the god
Clothes: mostly in his armour however under that he wears plain generic green garments
Personality: Calick is a man of the world, he will help all those who are need no matter how big or small the reward, however if your task is large and you have vast amounts of money then he would wish a sizable chunk of gold for his services rendered, all though if the poor ask for his aid then it his sworn duty to protect them for minimal value.
History: Calick was as happy as a child he could possibly be, for he was young and care free for many years living in the city of stormhold, a capitol of Torm, many days he would dream of becoming a great knight and often invision himself as one of the passing guards on patrol, defender of the lands and champion of Torm god of justice and rightousness. This would be his life or so he decided he would have it no other way but to make his father proud and be in the service of torm and become a Paladin of justice.
Over the years of training he learnt the ways of good and evil and how to uphold the law and to best evil at every stage, he learnt of the evils of the undead and how one might destroy them utterly, he learnt of the defenders of evil and he despised them most above all, he could see no reason why one would wish to uphold the praction of evil and its deeds.He found through his melee training that the sword, the most commonly associated weapon with the paladin didnt sit within his grasp well and found that using the weapon brought him great discomfort, he tried many weapons to find a fitting replacement but he found no better weapon than the mace that suited his style, having found his weapon of choice and his own particular style, Calick was eventually granted the title of Champion of Torm after saving a village from a infectious plague which assulted the mind and turned the villagers into living undead.
Over many years his reknown grew across the lands in which he travelled, many spoke of the wandering champion Calick, these words reached those of both good and evil, some wished to use his services for the greater good, others however wished to simply end the life of the paladin so that evil may continue.
It wasnt long before the first attempt on his life was taken, an anti-paladin of an unknown name sought the paladin and challenged him to the death in battle, steel clashed for many hours as the two champions fought for their very lives, it truely was a battle of good and evil but eventually the power of Calick prevailed, it was a wonder however as to how the Anti-paladin survived for so long during the fight, his mighty mace had struck the evil practioner many times upon the body, most blows of which would leave a man crippled for several days, but the Anti-paladin seemed to have an unbreakable resolve, Calick soon figured that the armour which the Anti-paladin wore gave the anti-paladin regnerative properties and the jewel that sat in the center of his head allowed a few second foresight when the command word was spoken, Calick stripped the Anti-paladin bare and destroyed the sword of the evil one in a triumph over evil and so that no other could take the sword and carry on as the Anti-paladin did.
