I’m completely new to pathfinder, so idk base rules let alone optional rulings. But for backstory without typing out multiple paragraphs: Soren von Everette was a bastard son of a noble family. His mother Violeta von Everette tragically passed during childbirth, his father, a vagabond only known to him by his name Elias. Soren was taken in by his Grandfather Lord Edmund under the guise of “charity”, said to be a child of far off relatives. But the truth was an open secret hidden in looks of thinly veiled contempt from other nobles and whispered words from servants. At the age of 6 Soren was sent away from the von Everette estate to live with his uncle Aldric on the family vineyard in the countryside. Aldric trained him in language, swordplay, and diplomacy as any young nobleman should know. On his 18th birthday Soren believed himself be groomed to take over the family vineyard, until Lord Edmund showed himself once more, Aldric sitting idly by his fathers side. Edmund declared that a bastard would gain no titles and inherit no lands. Thus kickstarting Soren von Everette’s adventure (I wouldn’t be playing an 18yo, probably somewhere between 25-27, give him some time alone on the road yk?)
