Karl Anders

Background
Karl Anders was born about 27 years ago under the moon of the Guardian. He grew up in a small village with a family of scholars in the land of Fyndara. Having witnessed many deaths over the years, Karl has devoted his life to learning medicine so that he could bring people back from the brink of death. It was through this desire to heal people that he devoted himself to nature so that he could become a more effective healer, thereby preventing the gruesome fate that people seem to frequently inﬂict upon other people. Through this desire to heal people, he has sworn to never harm a living being, except as a last resort effort in the defense of himself and other people. He is also incapable of turning down a request for aid, unless he can tell the request for aid is a hoax. Karl seeks to help people by any means he can, provided that doing so does not go against his paciﬁst beliefs.

Although Karl seeks to help people, he has a hard time being around people due to social anxiety, and, thus, has a hard time relating to people. As a result, he feels more comfortable with his nose in a book or being lost in thought than meeting people. Although he is capable of thriving in a academic environment, he also tends to be easily distracted by random thoughts.

Recently, Karl was hired as a doctor for the House Alegard. As an employee of the house, he had tended to maladies that afﬂicted members and workers of the house. Recently, Eamon and Melcolm, two of the lords of the house, failed to stay in contact with their mother, the matriarch of the house. Heinrich, a retired member of the militia of the house, was sent to ﬁnd them and get them back home. Karl volunteered to go with Heinrich to assist him in his task.
