Slayer of Beasts

Name: Arwin Venroara

Occupation: Founder of the Beastiliri and slayer of Gauldra the green

Characteristics: Resolute, passionate and strong willed

Oakenheart wasn’t always the tranquil and peaceful town it is known as today. Once it and the area around was controlled by an adult green dragon called Gauldra. Who would use the Oakentrees powers for its own selfish gain. Gauldra and his minions of kobolds, lizard folk and some humans would reek havoc on the forest and anyone who was foolish enough to live inside them without offering fealty  to the dragon. Arwin was once just a common hunter who was exceptional with a bow but would only hunt small pray to feed his family, but when his town couldn’t come up with the offering Gauldra demanded they were made an example of. The green dragon destroyed half the town and was told to give them double next month of face his wrath. Another month went by and the small town clearly couldn’t keep up but this time Gauldra took his anger out not on the town itself but on the people and a large number of people were killed, Arwins 2 kids included. This pushed Arwin over the edge, having enough he announced that he is leaving to go kill that beast, maybe not today maybe not tomorrow but he will kill Gauldra and if anyone wanted to do the same they can follow him. To Arwin's surprise only a handful of people stepped forward and went with him. Without knowing this was the start of the beastiliri. Arwin and his band fought a kind of guerilla warfare on Gauldra minions using their skills as hunters to disrupt supply runs from range, raiding camps and going village to village freeing people of its oppression. After months of successfully thawing the dragons hold on the region and Arwin men growing word started to spread that a group and belief was increasing. Gauldra noticed this uprising and whatever mercy the green dragon had went away destroying anything and everything with rumored ties to the group. However this only helped the beastiliri and after 2 years or so Gauldra drew all his forces back to the Oakentree Arwin thought the dragon was gearing up for something big and knew his and the beastiliris time was now. He send out a message to any and every large or small village or town telling them its now or never to march on Oakenheart and take back their forest and their home. Hundreds of people from all races and ways of life showed up ready to fight. A huge battle ensued and while the people of Oakenfree fought for their freedom so to did the green dragon fight for its power and dominance over the land. Like most green dragons Gauldra set up traps which caused the rebels to take serious casualty's. However the dragon also took a large amount of damage and left his army to carry on fighting and retreated. Arwin had waited too long and fought too hard to let it get away, him and its men stormed the tree to kill the green dictator for good. They found him in his lair syphering the trees natural properties to gain its power back but Arwin and his men arrived before he could fully heal. The deadliest fight on their life ensued with the dragon killing a few of Arwins longest allies and even taking his eye however with his exception skills with a bow Arwin fired the killing shot right through the dragons throat. Cutting off its scales the leader of the beastliliri ran out to show his forces that the battle had been won, all there pain and suffering was for something. This largely ended the battle and many of the Kobolds and lizard folk ran if they could. After the dust had settled many groups tried to get Arwin to lead the people of Oakenheart and the forest around but he knew that wasn’t the role for him. He would protect the forest and people from the creatures that still remain and would grow in numbers now the dragon wasn’t there to oppress them. A few ages have past since that day but the Beastiliri and even the Venroara bloodline are still slaying beasts and protecting the Oakentree to this day.
