HISTORIC BACKGROUND
General History: Lucky's early life was relatively uneventful. Unlike what seems to happen to a lot of heroes, his home village was never destroyed and his parents both still live, and his time there was rather boring. In fact, it was far too much so. Growing up in an inn, he would hear all kinds of stories from all kinds of travelers passing through, and soon developed a keen wanderlust. By the time he was fourteen years old it could no longer be denied, and he packed a simple bag and set off down a long road, seeking excitement.
He probably would've died inside the year if he hadn't been found by an older, more experienced traveler who effectively adopted him, showing him the ropes and teaching him how to survive in the wider world. Though she settled down a few years later he would carry her lessons with him for the rest of his life, which they would often save.
Though his travels began as simple tourism - adventurous for him, but not overly dangerous - he eventually found himself tangled up in much more exciting matters, outwitting cultists, fleeing from monsters and even slaying an ancient dragon with a rockslide. Many years later he has grown far more experienced, and developed into a brave and kind soul.
Present Life: Though he has changed in many ways since setting out on his first adventure, in his heart Lucien remains the same person he always was: An explorer who loves to see, do and experience all he can of life. As such he continues to wander, enjoying the world he lives in, and occasionally doing something brave and heroic on the way. He also records much of what he learns, hoping it can eventually be of use.
Special Historic Notes: Through the years Lucien has accomplished much more than he ever expected to, but he rarely stays in the same place for very long. The nature of stories constantly retold has resulted in several of his exploits being credited to some title of his, with the description wildly varying from his actual appearance. Very few people even realize that the Knight of Storms, Tel-Mallar, Wintersbane and the Baron of the Drowned Forest are one and the same.
