Lore
Magnus is an explorer who claims to have defeated an ice dragon den bare-handed, tamed the Beast of the Abyss, and beaten back an entire legion with a pistol and three mud-filled socks. Those exploits fill his hot-selling autobiographical series, "The Adventures of Magnus the Magnificent", allegedly based on true events, though he has never said which parts are. To countless youngsters across the Tundra he is already more myth than man.
The famed explorer Bahiti has publicly called those claims "99% bunk" and their author an average explorer who remains no more than that. The two were not always enemies. Holed up in the ruins of an ancient city, their quarrel over finder's rights gave way to panic at an approaching mercenary group, and, hemmed in by crumbling, trap-riddled buildings, they formed an uneasy alliance that even Bahiti admitted probably saved their lives. Their one regret was that the treasure recovered had not been worth taking.
Magnus traces his ambition to his parents, ordinary hunters who claimed descent from the world's mightiest pioneers and were certain the same blood ran in their son. He took on the swashbuckling manner of those imagined ancestors, ignoring other children's mockery, and vigorous training has since brought him close to backing up his boasts. Among his ancestors was an adventurer said to have explored the seven seas, every continent and countless ruins, leaving one ambition unfinished: reaching the edge of the world. Magnus has sworn to plant the family crest there, whatever the warnings that the Earth is round.
