"I once heard, Vilker Rielsen is having a passionate secret affair with the Duchess of Vallande."In Salternia, Vilker Rielsen is a universally known bon-vivant, a character famous for his exploits and extravagant lifestyle. An enigma, of whom you'll never know where in the course of history he might pop up next. What is certainly known, is that he is an acquaintance of Jaspar Arlstaph, the Baron of Vensia, whom he regularly meets in Lorsen for cards and dice games. He can also often be found touring Vensia's vineyards and the many horse farms in the Duchy of Freynborg where he partakes in the horsetrade.- Salternian Mercenary
Grendola
"Everyone knows Vilker Rielsen is currently teaching our Crown-Prince to fence."Vilker Rielsen seems to be a long time friend and confidant of the Grendolan royal family. As much so, as he has been tutoring the crown-prince of the kingdom in many disciplines such as literature, arts, riding and - most recently - fencing. It is rumoured he might be the crown-prince's secret godfather. For this reason, Vilker Rielsen is closely watched in other places, as he is believed to often taking in the role as a spy for the Kingdom of Grendola.- Grendolan Carpenter
Duchy of Vallande
"I don't know why everyone keeps going on about that vagabond, Vilker Rielsen. Full of himself, is what he is, turning up in random villages and expecting the good people of Bernost to listen to him warble on the flute all day as if we've nothing better to do."Especially around the Bernost region in the Duchy of Vallande, Vilker Rielsen can often be met travelling through the countryside to perform renditions of his favourite music when the mood strikes him. The man is versed in many instruments, but it is his ballads and work as a poet that truly captivate the masses and have earned him fame and reputation as a bard throughout all of the counties of Vallande.- Sheepherder in the County of Bernost
A man of mystery
With all these tales about his exploits and the timeline of his confirmed adventures, one could not be faulted for thinking that Vilker Rielsen somehow has acquired the ability to be in several places at once, or, at the very least, that he possesses some as of yet unknown method of fast-travel. No such abilities are accessible to even the highest of wizards, though, so these speculations are pointless and ridicoulous, of course... What is definetly true, is that many of Vilker Rielsen's adventures are confirmed by eyewitness accounts or are otherwise officially documented somehow. His many business enterprises are all able to show the necessary permits and documentations, and all transactions are always duly signed by the man himself. Despite the many accounts, factual information about Rielsen's origins is sparse and many details about his life remain a mystery; for example where he was born, who his family is, how he has so many connections to important people, or how he funds his many travels and businesses.A man of great reputation

He is firmly established at the center of an an extensive network of connections throughout many nations as far as into the Imperium. He associates with many of the richest families such as the Vankrellens, the Gannendars or the Arlstaphs and his many friends and collegues grant him a stellar reputation.

His own businesses include - but are not limited to - as follows:A man of many talents
What by now must be evident, is that Vilker Rielsen is the type of person that can do anything his mind is set on. But he is not just a man with a great mind for business. And as for the finer things in life: He is not just a connaisseur and appreciator, but instead possesses skills in many disciplines himself. Rielsen can play the flute and the harp well enough to have given many spontaneous performances at offical court affair. With his work as a poet he has entertained at least two kings in the past.
