Name- Quint Pick Title- The Hardship Hero Notable Feature- Quint had the shortest hero's journey in history, lasting only ten days. Overview- A surly hunter of a frozen region who had room in his heart for loving only his sister and his sledge dogs. Quint was called upon to deliver a priest to a remote town to treat the disease brewing there that might become an epidemic. He only accepted the medal's request because his beloved sister had already travelled there to help. The disease had been created by Demon Lord Marbas, who attempted to prevent his work being undone. Crossing the treacherous wilderness and facing this opposition was his entire quest. Fate- Quint never reached the town, but got close enough he could send the cure in his place, pulled by his ever-faithful sledge dogs. He defeated Marbas, protecting them, but died of the disease shortly after in the snow. Guardian Angel- The ghost of his sister, who had died of the disease on the day he began the journey. She disguised herself as an angel at first. Companion Beast- When his sledge dogs died in a storm, their loyalty to him allowed them to coalesce their wills into one spirit, never tiring. Blessing- The priest he was meant to take to the town was killed by Marbas. With their dying breath, they gave Quint the blessing to be able to withstand any cold. Legendary Weapon- In a mystical cave thousands of years of concentration of magical water had created an indestructible, unmeltable icicle of unfathomably low temperature. A battle there knocked loose the stalactite it was hanging from, allowing Quint to affix a handle to it and use it as a spear, able to handle it thanks to his blessing.
