Sean, a man in his late thirties, bore the weight of a tragic past that sculpted his visage into a tapestry of sorrow and resolve. His red hair, now streaked with premature gray, fell in unkempt waves around his face, a stark contrast to the meticulously groomed red beard that framed his strong jawline. His eyes, a piercing blue, were often clouded with the shadows of memories he could not escape. Standing at a formidable height, Sean's physique was that of a seasoned warrior, his muscles honed from years of service as a knight to the king.

Once a loyal servant to the crown, Sean's life was shattered the night Nerull, the god of death and darkness, descended upon his home. The malevolent deity engulfed Sean's house in flames, trapping his beloved wife inside. In a desperate bid to save her, Sean wielded the axe she had gifted him, only for it to shatter against the burning debris. As he was thrown back by Nerull's dark power, Sean watched helplessly as his wife perished in the inferno. Consumed by rage and grief, he resorted to the forbidden blood magic his wife had taught him in their youthful days of courtship. With this dark art, Sean challenged the god of death himself, but the battle ended in his defeat.

The king, witnessing Sean's use of forbidden magic, banished him from the kingdom. Now an outcast, Sean's sole desire is to find a way to bring his wife back from the clutches of death, a quest driven by his unyielding love and the burning need for vengeance against Nerull. Yet, the path is fraught with peril, as the use of blood magic has left a mark upon his soul, attracting the attention of dark forces. Sean's unique quirk is his habit of carving small wooden figures, a skill he learned from his wife, which he does in moments of reflection or to calm his restless spirit.

Sean's journey is one of relentless pursuit, navigating a world where the lines between right and wrong blur, and the shadows of his past loom large. His life is a constant battle against the forces that seek to exploit his grief, and the internal conflict of a man torn between his love for his lost wife and the darkness that threatens to consume him.
