Character Biography
Born in the lands of the north, Wunjo's human parents are unknown to him. He was found and raised by a troupe of three dwarven bards in the service of a great dwarf king. They raised him as their own and taught him the ways of the spellsinger, powerful musicians who could weave the winds of magic into their songs.
When Wunjo was a teenager, the dwarf king was assassinated by dark elves and his adopted family was framed for the act treason. Using the power of song to quell the populace's call for execution, the family instead accepted exile instead; separated and scattered blindly in each of the cardinal directions.
Lost and alone, Wunjo wandered for weeks hoping to find his lost family but instead he found the then-barony of Wolvenfang. Unable to afford food, let alone a place to live, Wunjo took up residence in an old well, which happend to lead to a section of the abandoned catacombs beneath Wolvenfang. It's down in those dark tunnels that Wunjo met Gummy the Gremlin. They two became quick friends. Like Aladdin and Abu, they had to eat to live so they stole to eat. This lasted for some time but Wunjo was never able to amount to much until Vecna arrived.
When The necromancer Vecna rose to power in Wolvenfang, Wunjo and Gummy were forced to flee the attacking forces. Gummy was slain in the escape and, without any real ties keeping him in Wolvenfang, Wunjo decided to just keep running. He traveled south for some time until he came upon the shire of Twilight Peak.
In Twilight Peak, Wunjo found greater fortunes. He took a job doing clerical work for the shire and earned himself a small amount of wealth. Inspired my a glowing meteor that landed on the southern coast of the shire, he founded the Godstone Fair, a travelling fairground that he would tour across Goldenvale spreading joy. Using the meteor, the Godstone, as a light source, Wunjo build a lighthouse-casino on the original landing site to act as the headquarters for his growing entertainment business.
Over the years, the Lighthouse would become a favoured haven for sailors and other merchants to rest and unwind after a long day. In order to bring more excitment to the establishment, Wunjo created the Pitmaster Championship - a tournament where the best of the best could duke it out for the ultimate prize, a glorious mastercrafted belt!
As his reputation grew, so did the risks that came with him leaving to go adventuring. Never one to dive into danger in the first place, Wunjo used his spellsinging to animate a marionnate golem, M.A.U.R.I.C.E., which he could control manually or send out to assist adventurers autonomously. With this construct, Wunjo was able to fight the good fight while also running a thriving business.
His latest endeavor is the creation of the Phoenix League, a competitive scene for the most skilled wielders of might and magic in the land!
From humble beginnings, Wunjo rose to find himself and now focuses his efforts on spreading joy to those around him. It's rumoured that he spends the majority of his fortune hiring scouts, rangers and mercenaries to search for any sign of his lost dwarwen parents.
