Accomplishments & Achievements
Triumphed over a Purple Worm, and Contract Devil as well was able to take their tooth and horn home as trophies.
Failures & Embarrassments
Archibald regrets having been unable to prevent Luke's suicide by Daemon after having failed to read a contract carefully enough, as well having the same Daemon assassinate his wife before bring it down, then having accidentally re-kill a young hell knight in training using the fingers of the Daemon when trying to make up for his mistakes. So many companions have died around Archibald, being the lone survivor over and over has haunted him for years. (at least until the party has managed to stay alive somewhat consistently as time went on.)
Mental Trauma
Survivors Guilt / PTSD
Morality & Philosophy
It is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all. To give in is to be a coward, no matter how grim the fight may be, one must swing with all their might until death has taken them, and then keep swinging.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Hopes to leave the world in safe hands before age finally takes him.
Savvies & Ineptitudes
Great at not dying, not great at keeping other alive.
Virtues & Personality perks
COSTITUTION
Vices & Personality flaws
Incredibly stubborn, Poor pre-combat planning skills.
Social
Contacts & Relations
Loving relationship with his Son and two daughters. A respectful understanding with Arathmas. Feeling of a concerned parent for his party that he continuously places in danger time after time when venturing out into even more dangerous and unknown territory.
Religious Views
A strong believer in the teachings of Torag, yet the effects of having a worshiper of Desna as a wife for the majority of his life has shown through in how he treats strangers and defeated foes hoping to change them for the better rather than bring down the hammer.
Social Aptitude
Very confident and boisterous. Grandpa vibes exude from him making him extremely hard to hate for most good aligned creatures (with a notable exception in Luke Taelor).
Speech
Inside voices are difficult.
Wealth & Financial state
Most nearly all of Archibald's wealth gets poured into his own weapons and armor in hopes that he may continue to protect his traveling companions. What he doesn't though gets flitted about spoiling his adopted daughter Jana, to pay for dresses as well as starting combat gear to help train her in her father's footsteps as she desires.
