Physical description: A tall toned man with otherworldly beauty about him. His tawny skin has a slight silver cast to it. Eyes are golden and glow brightly. It is almost enough to distract from the bags that are constantly under his eyes. Dark hair cut close to his scalp. There is a smell of incense around him constantly, quickly masking any other smells that are around him. Vestigial Stubby white feathered wings can be seen on his back, too small for any form of flight, under a cloak they make him appear to have a hump and any clothes/armor need to be made to accommodate them.
Psychological description: Due to his stubby wings he has trouble sleeping as he is unable to sleep on his back, and any side sleeping causes its own troubles. The smell of incense also dulls flavors of food he eats, causing anything he wants to taste have to be overpowingly spiced. This trait also makes it so he can not really smell anything else. These traits have lead him to be grumpy and dour, a very somber individual.
Religious views: As a devotee of Hoar he strives to right wrongs that are brought to him. Bringing justice to those who would be unable to achieve it via their own means. These should be written down, to eventually be transcribed in the halls of the Doombringers home plane. When this unjustice has been avenged, it is allowed to be fulfilled and crossed out. If possible, these should be an ironic punishment. A gang leader being overturned by his own goons, then the organization arrested for their crimes. While a thief who steals to feed his family will be lightly punished.
Ancestor: Simply due to the traits he exabits, it is most likely either an Angel or Couatl
Biography
Family Two older Siblings, two younger siblings. Parents are both alive. He is the only one who ended up being an Aasimar between the five of them. Parents work as minor officials for the government of Impiltur. Tax collector for his mother and Magistrate for his father.
History Alric was born without pomp and ceremony that is normally attributed to an Aasmiars birth. No beam of light illuminating his birth, no choirs, no divine visitation by his Higher plane ancestor. His relatively unpainful birth was the blessing his mother did wish however, so in the end it worked out for everyone. He was considered a fussy baby, the stubby wings already hinting at their future problems for his sleep, making his displeasure known about his lack of good sleep.
Growing up, numerous people came to him seeking his blessings, children pulling a feather from his wings to try to obtain good luck, those wishing for just a single touch to obtain some minor miracle. These were attempted to be stopped by his parents influence and his older siblings intervention. Clerics of the goodly deities would often entreat his parents to send him to their temple these enteritis dealt with swiftly, though some clerics attempted to sway Alric to their viewpoint whenever he was alone, which he swiftly learned to always be close to someone who could put a stop to it.
In his teen years, watching his father deal with criminals, seeing those who got away with petty crimes, or whose influence were able to save them from the courts, always sat wrong with him. When a local Hoarite came to town, and was willing to put a stop to a local gang that had been harassing numerous people, and put in turn on trial for taking justice into his own hands. Alric found himself drawn into the cells he was placed in as he awaited trial. Through the lessons taught by the man, it solidified what Alric wanted with his life. The influence of the backers of the gang, as well as the man technically did commit a crime of murder, judgement was eventually given. Execution. Numerous people were upset of this judgement, those he had saved, and those who had suffered under the gang protested this judgement, but he had been rendered his own judgement. On the final night of the mans life, the final lessons that were taught Alric. He took his oath to the Doombringer in a cold and damp cell, blessed through prison bars by a man who was to be hanged in the light of dawn the next day.
Alric had a new god, and a new purpose. Through connections of his parents, they were able to locate a cleric of Hoar who came to instruct him further on the workings of the Doombringer. Finding that he worked better as a Paladin of Hoar, Alric was slowly brought up in the remaining of his teen years until he was declared a Paladin, able to work the will of Hoar in Toril. The next several years Alric left home, traveling, aiding those who needed it, and hunting down those who were escaping justice.
Now he has come to the Balders Gate region. Ready to toll the Doom Drum.
