Personality

Karnu keeps to himself alot of the time, he is either very shy or very deep in thought. His face remains still and only show's his true emotions when his home is in danger. A very calculating man. His brother has shown him the ways of evil, he is not trusting nor is he appreciative of just anyone who helps, though he gives most of those, that or of his kin. The benefit of a doubt.

Karnu is a very complex man, He is good at heart, but his outer shell reveals something more of an evil nature. Seen as a villain to some, but all that he does is for the future of his kin. He would normally do whatever it takes to do this, but his years of training have taught him to sway towards good, for the sake of everyone. He is appreciative of some dwarves, but shuns gnomes and humans, for defiling nature and such. But still accepts them as allies, for now.

History

The youngest out of the Shadowcrest brothers, Karnu was raised by his father and his older brother Aledern. During his youth, he was trained by Aledern to become apart of the family trade, defending Ashenvale, which in time he was regarded a highly skilled warrior and formed a devastating partnership with his brother.

As years passed, a rift between himself and Aledern started the downfall of the family, some say it was because Karnu found his love and eventually got married, whilst others say Karnu showed his ruthless side, taking the clan down darker routes, whichever rumour to believe, Aledern and Karnu never managed to see eye to eye ever again.

Things got worse for the family after Karnu had lost his wife and newborn son during birth, With no one that he could really care for, He fell into a slum, He fell asleep one night, His brother crept into his room. But his brother was over-cocky and careless, making sounds along the way that awakened Karnu. A short battle happened, but the sound of battle also brought down the father of the two. After they both pleaded their sides of the story to their father, It was eventually decided that Aledern was working against the family as a whole, a heated conversation ensued and ended with Aledern 'leaving'. But he, and a group of his friends knew what they must do.

Time passed, and they all moved on. But they went to sleep one night, after blessings and such. They awoke to find a dead father on the ground, his throat was slit. But he went down with a fight, He had managed to knock out Aledern first, and the friends left him to be caught. With all evidence against Aledern, he was found guilty and imprisoned for many of years. Karnu still believes him to be imprisoned.

The reason that Aledern killed his own father was nevery truly revealed, but it was originally a plot to blame it on Karnu, Aledern's lust for power took total control of his thinking pattern and planned it out, though in the end, it failed. So He was caught instead of his brother, and was now fatherless.

Since then, He has been moving within Ashenvale, trying to fight off the orc's to the best of his ability.
