Biography/Character Lore
Hailing from the racial melting pot of Alliria, Maddix comes from extremely humble beginnings. His father, Brock Vadangraff, worked endlessly to improve the living conditions of his family even up until his death. His father worked as a Lumberjack, Fisherman, Archer, Woodworker, Craftsman, Fletcher, and even a mercenary for quite some time. His mother, Ellyara Vadangraff, died when Maddix was at the young age of four. Although he cared for his mother, not much is known about her. Her mysterious past constantly troubles Maddix in the way that he would like to discover what she did before his birth and get to know her more. The natural death of his father plagued Maddix's life with sadness and a disgust for the things around him, so at the age of twenty he moved from Alliria to Elbion, a land that had much promise for him. Here, he works tirelessly to make money and keep himself on his feet. In his pastime, he hunts and fishes. Though everything on the outside would make him seem like a somewhat healthy man, he deals with a variety of issues. Depression, gradually becoming blind, and even more have an effect on his daily routine.
