Personal history

Ulric's parents were killed when he was five years old by the Wildeborne. They were moving through the woods when they were attacked by a small band of the creatures. The young child was told to run by his mother and father who attempted to fend off the monsters.   A single wildborne managed to get around them to give chase but Ulric was saved by the intervention of a local wolf pack that saw the Wildborne as invaders on their territory.  The wolves, viewing him as a cub, seemed content to follow him as he stumbled through the woods until he was found by other villagers.   The village proceeded to communanly raise the new orphan and he became close to the young Wulfgang heir Casamir in this time as they were the same age. Plagued by violent nightmares during the following years, Ulric would often run away into the woods where he found comfort and companionship with the wolves.   Over the years Ulric would grow into a strong, large young man. He split his time training with Casamir and running with the wolves. Once he was old enough he began to roam the woods around Holtzweil as one of its protectors. Nothing moved through the local woods without his knowledge and no enemies threatened the young of their village since he took up his vigilance.   Though his missed the initial arrival of the adventurers in Holtzweil as he was chasing down a small band of Wildborne, he was asked by Casamir to aid them in their pursuit of a shared enemy. He accompanied them back to the city of Wolfesfelden as part of this hunt.   Originally believing Casamir had the right to make any choice about his birthright, Ulric's time in Wolfsfelden has began to slowly change his mind. The birthright of his people is a city full of corruption that taints the noble roots it was born from and Ulric is beginning to share in that belief that Casamir must take back his family's throne.
