History: The child of a Map Maker, who enjoyed hunting, Barendd was taken on many hunting expeditions. When he was little, his rather wealthy family often ventured across the plains to a summer home near a large cave. He would wander through that large cave and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and he was stranded inside. His family spent the next few days looking for him, and could only assume he was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the plains due to the painful memories there. Barendd took refuge in the large cave and found the beat up sickle and armor he uses now. He now has a substantial network of resources ranging from contacts to ships to peers.
