Anatoli
Anatoli (a.k.a. "The Dread Blood Raider")
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Once a warrior of the highest capability, now a slowly diminishing tavern owner. While he wouldn't go down without a fight the heyday of this raider captain is long gone.
Body Features
A beer belly and muscular arms slightly shadowed by a long beard paint an effective caricature of Anatoli. While portly he is still strong enough to handle all the homestead work such a rustic tavern would require.
Facial Features
A nose bent by being broken several times and a smile a few teeth short greet his customers as his tired eyes look past a large mustache.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Anatoli rose from obscurity to be one of the most feared raiders during his prime. He was known as a brutal foe that would be merciful only if complete surrender was given at the first offer. Amoung the Volyhenians his legend, (that he took great care not to attach to his current name), is one of brutality, glory, and betrayal. His career ended when his forces were surrounded by a group of Dwarves seeking revenge for the constant bloodshed in their lands. It was here that Anatoli sold his men out and made his escape, with just enough ill gotten gains to aquire a tavern in a small village in the middle of nowhere. He will often serve groups of patrons who to this day tell tales of the Dread Blood Raider who burnt the sky before sending his men to Hell itself to raid the ultimate treasure.
Employment
Served as a camp follower for a raid group during his childhood. Eventually he managed to steal a horse following a raid and join up with the riders. After a decade and a half of fighting he distinguished himself among his band.
Accomplishments & Achievements
Anatoli gained some fame as a leader in his band, intimidating opponents on the open field by covering him and his steed in steaming warm blood prior to fighting. Often the sight of this in the early winter was enough to break the nerve of his opponents, netting him easy victories.
Failures & Embarrassments
The annihilation of his band after a trap by a formation of Dwarven Oath-Settlers ended his career. He now tends a tavern trying to keep his head down and prevent his renown from drawing foes much longer lived than he.
Mental Trauma
A lifetime of battle coupled with being so completely routed has left Anatoli hesitant to fight and wary of dwarves.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Live life as best as possible and avoid the fate of his band, as well as the karma that claimed them.
Hygiene
Despite his former reputation of bathing in blood these days it is rare he would go more than 12 hours without a dip in the nearby hotsprings.

New employer of Ermeg and Wirlut
Old acquaintance of the Arcane Advisor Boris
Good friend and benefactor of Sora, Mika, Maria, Henry and Tenzan
