Edrin Blackthorn, The Grim Champion

Born and raised in the peaceful farmlands of Shadowdale, Edrin Blackthorn's life was forever changed when a deadly plague claimed his family during his youth. Seeking purpose, he joined the Order of the Gauntlet in Daggerford and trained as a paladin, fighting for justice. But years of war, loss, and betrayal shattered his faith.

Haunted by guilt, Edrin abandoned his former path and wandered to the deserts of Anauroch, where he encountered a cult devoted to Kelemvor, the Lord of the Dead. Embracing the natural cycle of life and death, he took up a scythe from an ancient tomb, becoming a Grim Champion who delivers judgment with cold precision.
