Background:
Shadwell was born in Cove. His father was an average blacksmith with a slight drinking problem this quickly became a big drinking problem after Shadwell's mother died when he was 12. Growing up with the extra care of three smaller brothers Shadwell had to find a way to get extra gold. He became a thug for a small band in the forests arround Vesper. Here he learned his skill with the bow and kryss. Cove was a place of chaos and bussines was good for Shad.
When the band broke into a small farm close to Cove, the leader ordered the death of a peasant who refused to tell where he had hidden his gold. Shad killed the leader instead and went back home. Helping his father through the last days of his life Shadwell noticed that things were changing, a baron began to establish himself in Cove and law returned.
Just before the Orcs invaded Cove a man clad in black and brown entered his house, he introduced himself as Thom and he served the Baron. He knew about Shadwell's criminal past and gave him a chance to get his life back on tracks.

Join the Covian guard he said.

And so he did.
