Roland Morgenstern

Roland

Name: Roland Morgenstern

Archetype: The Cometary Farmboy

Player: SirLagginton

Born to a family of farmers in the Moselle province close to the Empire-Premrose border, Roland grew up in an area that was still scarred by the war, where accidents from decades old landmines and digging up obsolescent magitek war automata was rare but not unheard of. This legacy of industrial violence would tragically flare up once more during the Shattered Javelin Incident, where a misdirected artillery salvo hit home on his village during a tense series of demonstrative military exercises by both the Empire and the Dual Monarchy, killing his parents and nearly two dozen others.

Now an orphan at twelve, Roland would bounce around at a series of state orphanages until he reached the age of majority and his conscription assessment revealed his extraordinary compatibility for magitek armors and directed him to the newly reopened Rosencruz Academy in the far north.

Despite his tragic past, Roland is easygoing and good-natured, always willing to lend a helping hand to his peers. His distinctive silver hair is said to be a legacy of Old Lemuria before the coming of the Silver Dragon Comet, though few pay attention to such old superstitions these days.
