Emrick Il-Khan

Emrick was a Half-Orc Paladin with a life wrought by misfortune; son of a murdered father, squire to a murdered knight, and a companion to a multitude of murdered adventurers. His grandfather, Dorn, stole his body and imprisoned his soul within The Abyssal Blade.

Early in his life, Emrick knew that he was a protector. Though not as a shield to defend his allies, as a blade to strike before they could be struck. He was once taught that the best defense is a good offense. Or was it the best offense was a good defense? He could never remember, so instead chose the one that made the most sense to him. After all, how could defending ever result in killing anything?
