(this is both an exercise for myself to see if I got character creation rules right, and the implementation of a crazy idea I got while reading the book - what if Van Helsing (the cheesy movie character, not the Bram Stoker scholar character) had been a duck? Usually I don't transfer characters from one setting to the other but this is just for fun and will probably never be played...so here we go!)

Backstory: Shajarah's first memories have him awakening on the shores of a lake in Gilárhi. He was naked, hurt to an inch of death, and couldn't remember what had happened to this point. Luckily enough he was found by Linruh, an Anole hermit priest who lived nearby. While he was able to nurse the duck back to health, Linruh couldn't do anything about his memories, except feel the mark of a curse from Narákah. Having nothing but anger, Shajarah accepted Linruh's offer of training himself into the perfect demon hunting machine, adept in all weapons and lore. Linruh was part of a secret order from Gilárhi which had watched for the return of dark forces since the end of the Twilight Wars, and felt Shjarah was a boon from the Devah. This order spared no resource to get Shajarah the best training and equipment, and when he was ready he set upon himself to hunt through the world for any demons or dark sorcerer. Deep inside he still hopes to find the truth about himself, as many people told him he had a hint of Amnoli accent; but for now, he is happy to quench his anger in demon blood.
