Ruaidhri Hawkbane
(The Silver Hunter, Bane of Lycanthropes, Patron of Hunters)
Symbol: A giant hawk with human eyes pierced by a silver arrow in its chest
Portfolio: Destroying all lycanthropes, protecting demi-humans, hunting, revenge
Worshipped in: Known World (Minrothad, Darokin), Sind, Undersea
Appearance: Ruaidhri is an elven hunter wearing silvered chain mail and wielding a silver longsword, with a longbow on his shoulders and silver-tipped arrows in his quiver.
History: Ruaidhri was born in the IV century AC on the Traders’ Isle in Minrothad into a family of wood elves. He witnessed all his parents and relatives massacred by werehawks during the spreading of lycanthropy in Minrothad. Mad with rage and burning with vengeance, he led the faction of elves that eventually brought about the Silver Purge in AC 443. After ridding Minrothad of its werebeasts, he left his home to complete his revenge, following all traces and rumours pointing to the existence of werehawks around the world. He killed the last member of that race in AC 593. After all his travels and experiences he was convinced that despite all his efforts and long life, a mere mortal could never free the world from the plague of lycanthropy. Because of this, he chose to walk the path towards immortality: in order to continue his hunt for all eternity. He became an Immortal in the VIII century AC, and his cult is especially prevalent in Minrothad and Undersea. Personality: Ruaidhri’s crusade, against what he perceives to be a cursed race that preys on the living and is above all a constant threat to the life of all demi-humans (he was an elf), obsesses him. Because of this, he eliminates werecreatures without regret or mercy. Because of his ruthless hatred of all lycanthropes, he has become a fierce enemy of Mrikitat, Orcus, and even Zirchev, who instead protects them. Ruaidhri is a loner who doesn’t want stable alliances, and even his sponsor, Malinois, abandoned him when he realized the extent of his pupil’s hatred. In order to pursue his vendetta, Ruaidhri will go to great lengths, even allying himself with Entropics needed.
Enemies: Mrikitat, Zirchev, Orcus
Followers' alignment: Any
Favoured weapon: Long and short bow (allowed all classic hunter's weapons: dagger, long and short sword, quarterstaff, spear, sling, bolas, net, trident and javelin)
