Rogan Strider is the name of a traveling human mercenary without a home and without a family. Walking the lands for a purpose, Rogan walks deserts, sails oceans and climbs mountains in his search. He won't stop until his hair is grey and his skin is scarred and worn.
Rogan was born somewhere in the east. His parents weren't known to him, as they left him to die in a forest. He was found by a gang of mercenaries who took him in and treated him as their own. He was raised as a hunter when he became of age. Hunting for food and meat in the forests surrounding the camp, Rogan became a skilled archer. As he grew older, he was included more and more in jobs that the mercs were doing. He eventually joined them, and was taught how to become one with a sword. From that day on, he released the bow from his grip, and held his sword in his other hand, with a tighter grip.
During a job for the local lord, Rogan and the rest of the mercenaries set out north to eliminate a bunch of bandits holding up in a cave. Believing it to be an easy task, they were caught by surprise. The bandits were heavily armed with diamond swords and enchanted bows. Amongst them, a leader skilled in the arts of magic. Barely getting out of the situation alive, Rogan was the only survivor. He grabbed what he had, and set off east. For 5 long years, Rogan walked the lands, doing minor jobs for local settlements.
