Background:
Hailing originally from Neverwinter, he recieves word from his cousins in Mithril Hall that his presence is required for something. Confused, he boards the next ship and heads to Baldur's Gate and sets out for Mithril Hall. Weeks later, he comes to the Hall and immediately is brought before a council of Dwarves, who tell him the news of his father's passing. They offer their deepest sympathies and tell him that his father died in battle. Consumed with the grief of his father's passing, he leaves Mithril hall, and heads back to Baldur's Gate intent on leaving for Neverwinter once more. After the weeks' long journey, he arrives at the entrance to Baldur's Gate, and no sooner does he try to enter, when he is approached by a human, who claims to have knowledge of his father and the real reason how he died. After listening to the tale, Vesin is confused and angered that the dwarves of Mithril Hall failed to mention his father's problem with some bandits. Vowing to never rest until his father's murderers are brought to justice, he now wanders the lands around Baldur's Gate, without a place to call home, for he will not return to Neverwinter as the memories of his father are too much to bear...
Goals:
After bringing his father's killers to justice, he pledges himself to be the sword-arm to his god, and seeking to rid the land of evil, and protect the innocent all the while trying to open up his own smithy and begin the life of a Blacksmith.

Possible Plot-Hook Ideas and Misc Facts:
Vesin has always been loyal to those he travels with, but he feels an inexorable pull to his god, and although he cannot explain it, he feels he is being led to the path of the clergy.
Misc Facts:
Vesin is the son of a blacksmith and as such, is trying to learn his craft while wandering the lands. He is slow to anger, and quick to judge, but he is loyal at heart. Although he does what he sees fit, he has a good and gentle heart, if overly protective of those he travels with. Never willing to back down from a challenge has gotten him into more brawls than he is willing to admit, and his love of ale will eventually be his downfall.
