Personal history
Wee was born as Garin Harford, a Thul-born citizen who's family escaped to the Innerheart through The Gap and then established themselves as nobility there. Garin often sought after thrill and adventure, and was well known by his peers and neighbors as a prankster, sneak and mischievous fellow.
It was some time in First Era, some 15 years after his family settled into their new land, that tragedy befell the family. A rival noble family had managed to hire a local mercenary gang in secret to assault the Harford's Estate and were successful in slaughtering everyone there but Garin, who managed to escape through the chaos.
Garin became a wanderer, forsaking his name and adopting the simple alias of Wee. While in mourning for his loss, rage built and soon he sought vengeance against his families murderers. He began taking odd jobs as hired muscle and tomb-raiding to make ends meet and make progress towards his goals of revenge.
In this work he inevitably took the job that would forever change his life and the world around him. He found himself in a ruined city, facing down with a Shadowight commanding a small troop of Mo'or soldiers. Upon slaying the wight and claiming it's weapon as his own, the Right of Death appeared before him and accused Wee of theft.
It was this accusation of theft of the sword that belonged to the wight, given to it by Death himself, that brought the curse of immortality to Wee. He fell into his despair and depression and became a drunken wanderer, all but silent in his travels, while legends of his victory and heroism against the wight grew around him.
