Lothar grew up in the small village of Ramfall, the only son of Gregor and Ilsa Almann.

Gregor was the head of the village militia and still is to this day. Of course militia work was something he did when he did not have to work the fields as the village had no need for a full time militia. Gregor always told the young Lothar how important it was to be skilled in arms. Not only to defend one self, but to defend those one cares for and in the case of the militia also those whom one is responsible for.

Lothar took this to heart, and he practiced every day with his father, the long sword, the bastard sword, spears, and halberds and so on. Each day when he had finished his exercises he would talk for a while with his father about the discoveries he had made, if any, with the weapons. “You must know your weapons well lad” his father always said. From time to time Lothar did complain about why the need for so many weapons, wouldn't a simple blade suffice, but he was told time and again that if he was standing in the midst of combat and his blade fell from his hand, he should be able to pick up anything from the field of battle and use it to defend himself and those he was bound to protect.

Farm work was not really something that Lothar found interesting, he of course did his chores and helped where he could, but he did not feel any passion for it. While he worked he often pondered how the world was, what he had heard from travellers passing through the village or the occational bard. There was so much injustice and wrongdoing out there it seemed, and he often dreamt about setting out doing good deeds to help.

Lothar first learned of Rofirein from a travelling Rofireinite whom he met when travelling with his father to Fort Himlad. Here they met the priest who was bound for Karthy and Dregar and the walked alongside each other for a while. The priest spoke much of Rofirein and what he stood for. Lothar listened intently and could not help but ask questions time and again, much to the annoyance of Gregor who thought it improper to bother the clergy with trivial questions as those Lothar posed. They parted ways in Himlad but a small seed had been sown in Lothars mind on the road there, a seed that would prove to grow strong over time.


Appearance
Lothar seems a normal young man for his age with short dark hair. He walks at with an even gait seeming fairly relaxed at all times, although one may notice his muscles tensing if he walks by what could turn into a situation. His eyes seem ever watchful of his surroundings following the moves of those around him, yet he never seems to stare at anyone in particular.


-------------

1. I have read the information on Rofirein and I will play Lothar as a faithful paladin of Rofirein to the best of my abilities.

2. Lothar believes that the law is what holds the land together, without law to uphold order there is nothing, hence he has devoted himself to Rofirein to do his to keep things in check.

3. Lothar wears as heavy armor as he can afford to protect himself as much as possible and by that helping him to protect others and uphold the law. He carries a bastard sword, the weapon of Rofirein, as well as an assortment of other weapons, including a blunt weapon.
