Description

    "And that great knight, a giant among men, swinging his great swordlance in mighty arcs, slew so many foes as to be countless. The pride of Borgo, and Hyland as a whole, had arrived to save the day." ~Excerpt from the Battle of Adlas


    Standing at over 7ft tall and weighing almost 400 pounds, Balder was a giant among men. Born in the fortress city of Renvall, his size and strength were noted among his peasant siblings, and a well paid job in the town watch all but fell in his lap. When the Darkness besieged Hyland, Balder enlisted to defend his homeland.

    Then, the Queen of Hyland had a prophecy of the towering man leading the armies of the kingdom against it's enemies. Clad in the finest plate armor, he wielded weapons so massive that no normal man could hope to lift. Soon, it was proven that he was a natural genius in battle, and while his tactical and strategical skills were unremarkable, no one, and no evil, had ever defeated him in a fight.

    It was in the final battle, that the Nameless Evil fought tooth and nail with Balder. After several long years of fighting, Balder finally slew his great foe, and saved the continent...


    However, he would be granted no reprieve, nor celebration, for before a single cheer could be lifted in honor of his great victory, the flash of a blade, King Geluth of Gilder plunged his dagger through Balder's eye, slaying the great hero instantly...


    In the chaos that followed, the mountain began to collapse around them, and in a single moment of hesitation, Balder's body, and weapons were buried beneath the rubble, never to be seen again...
