And hipbones take up too much shelf space.
I've saved the best for last. This is a character I originally created for The "Rogues" of Canguine but I've since realized that he would be better for the Schemers campaign.

"Through Victory My Chains are Broken." - Burkhard family motto
In 1654, Dieter was sent to an academy in Posen. He was a willful twelve year old who needed discipline. The War of the Cross had been raging for 18 years and his father wanted to start his battle training as soon as possible. Neither he, nor his family realized he would not see his home again for twelve years. His sister, Elise, had been born 4 years earlier and was the apple of their parents' eyes. His older brother was named Helmut and was the heir to the Barony of Brunnenfeldt. The next four years were rough on him and he was quite surprised when his father sent him to the University of Elena to further his education. His father's letter indicated that the land would have more need of healers than warriors when the when the war was over and he wanted to be prepared for the peace. In late 1664, Dieter was informed that his brother had died fighting the Objectionists and that he needed to come home. He was identified as a Vatacine and captured while crossing through Sieger and spent the last months of the war treating his fellow prisoners. When he finally was able to reach Brunnenfeldt, the barony's villages ahd been burned and its fields were mud. No one was left to till the land and the baronial castle was a pile of stone and burned timber. With nothing left to loose, Dieter dug his way through the ruins to the basement storerooms in hopes that some of the family's treasures had survived. He the family's Drachenien blade and a girl who did not respond to any attempts at communication. She was one of the Waissen. He had no idea who she was but she had blonde hair and blue eyes like his sister had and appeared to be the correct age. He took her with him to Frieburg and began to study her in an attempt to cure her condition. Recently, he heard of a Fate Witch that had studied the Waissen. She had eventually become one of them but before then she had described them as puppets with their strings cut. He's decided to return to Vodacce to find a Fate Witch that can help him find a cure.
