Background

Eetu and I raided a village together, along with a raiding party. This village was to the NW of the kingdom, in the mountains. Unknown to us, it was under the protection of something scary. The raiding party was captured, and the female leader made those who wanted their freedom go through a trial. Most of the party failed to pass, but we made it through, along two others. She returned the armor and weapons, and gave some gifts to those who made it through. We maintain a boon companion relationship after this - close friends and drinking buddies.

Jod and I were sent to retrieve a statue of a dragon that had been commissioned by the priests. The statue had been stolen by Yozi cultists. We followed the Yozi cultists into their cavern lair, and killed them. We regained the statue and brought it back. We have since maintained a companionable, business relationship.

Ryken is probably an orphan. He was brought to the monastery as a very young child by a woman who died at the monastery soon thereafter. He has no memory of his parents, and all of his memories are of his life at the monastery. This was a rather austere life until going on the raid with Eetu. Going out to various bars with Eetu, he has obtained a taste for fine beers, especially an ice mead made by the Icewalkers.

One time while out on the town with Eetu, he picked up a woman and took her to a room with him. He didn't realize that the woman was a prostitute until he got to the room. at which point he couldn't figure out how to back out of it. To this day, Eetu still gives him a hard time about this. He found that he enjoys sex, but doesn't intend on paying for it again. He also doesn't want any attachments right now, since relationships aren't something that he really understands, so he never picks up the same woman twice.
