Background:
Zohar is a man of the changing winds. He performs with skill in both the greataxe and in the whirlwind dance of the barbarian warrior.

Hailing from an offshoot of the Northern Elk Tribe in the Icewind Dale region, Zohar's clan sends away all young warriors to find their place in Faerun through battle and blood...and the winds have blown him South, along the Sword Coast, seeking knowledge and skill in the dance of the greataxe. He is lured into adventuring by the combined danger and reward that all adventures seek: recognition, improved skill, and respect amongst his warrior peers.

And when respect isn't given, Zohar will perform his dance, and so many will fall under thousands of cuts....

As the gods see fit, he will find worthy companions to fight alongside, eventually a good wife, and return north, to begin his own clan. He will have to survive first....but what is the adventurer's life with risking it all?


Goals:

Survive the path of the adventurer. Zohar will, one day, learn to perfect his dance of the greataxe, and dervish-like motion of supreme whirlwind fury. This can only be acheived through survival and learned skill. There are no guarantees....


Possible Plot-Hook Ideas and Misc Facts:

- Permadeath Club. He fights to live...let's hope is smart enough to see that through.
- A barbarian mentality: slash it dead, but with a certain performance in brutal beauty.
- Zohar must prove his worthiness by developing a unique "dance of the blade," something all members of his tribe must attain. Hence, a desired progression from Barbarian to Dervish build.
