This is the tale of Isaac Haemarron a Dwarven Paladin from the Old Kingdom Mountains.
Unloved and unappreciated by his father Isaac goes out into the world to find himself and to prove his maniacal father wrong.

This story is based on the very first game we ever played using the Palladium Fantasy 2nd Edition rules.
Here is a snippet:
How did I end up here?
Knee deep in filth, deep beneath the town in the old sewers, hunting an escaped goblin.
Not the place for the favoured son and heir to the house of Haemarron. The thought of a dwarf of such standing being reduced to such a menial task in such foul conditions would send a cry throughout the whole of the Old Kingdom Mountains. But then I wasn’t the favoured son or the heir, was I? My brother had occupied that role since before my birth. Stronger in both mind and body than my older sibling, I bested him in every challenge our childhood presented, yet my father could never see past our age when it came to his affections. No dwarf can say he pushed themselves harder when it came to physical training, nor attended more to the clergy’s sermons on honour and humility in the eyes of the Warrior Goddess than I. Yet all my efforts were like the stars against the dawns rays when my brother so much as drew breathe. By the time I came of age it was clear there was no glory to be had in the shadow of my brother’s light, so I left the family home, a Paladin on a noble quest to rid the world of evil. Surely this would win my father’s favour.
If he could only see me now…

Re: Isaac Haemarron: Dwarf, Paladin, Hero!
It was such a fun game. I was the gamesmaster and one friend was Haemarron the Dwarf Paladin and my other mate only plays occasionally due to work/distance etc. so he was the wicked Goblin. The hunt/fight was really quite intense but we all had a great time, even my other friend the Ogre who sat in prison for the last part loved it lol.
Anyway AZ_RUNE thanks so much for taking the time to read our tale and thanks so much for leaving a comment
