Before you became an adventurer, your life was already full of conflict and excitement, because you made a living hunting down the beasts and monstrosities that terrorized the local settlements. Hunting alone or in small teams, each kill brought gold and fame to you. You joined with an adventuring party to find bigger and fiercer quarries than you have already faced.
