Alexander Rostman the Cheese Merchant, Human Fighter, Recovering - Sketch (Patreon)

A human fighter and cheese merchant I drew on commission recently, recovering after a one-on-one battle with an orc captain that nearly cost him his life while browsing a bag of war trophies.

Character: Alexander Rostman the Cheese Merchant, Human Fighter, Recovering

Alexander grew up in a monastery never knowing any family. He never fit in, and one day struck out on his own, stealing the monastery’s cart as he left and using it to start his cheese-trading business.

In his travels, Alexander apprenticed under a travelling trainer to learn how to defend against bandits who would steal his wares. He became quite adept in the art of the shield before the two split ways.

Alexander continued travelling town to town, selling cheese and adventuring, trying to find purpose in his life and somewhere or something to belong to. Finally, he found his place among friends when he joined a party of adventurers. Now, he travels alongside his new friends, doing whatever it takes to protect them.

What do you think? :)

Full soon!
