Heroist
Auto-translated
Three years have passed since the end of the expedition to the wild lands. This journey changed the lives and fates of many people, and it affected Ratislav as well. Once, the Tyrian despised greed, own baseness, cowardice, and other negative qualities inherent in some people, but now he has begun to realize their certain utility. Sometimes it is better to leave the battlefield one more time than to stay there and perish in combat. If you can get more money, then why not? If you have to plunge a blade into a friend's back to achieve your goals, well, if the goal is truly that important...
Returning from the expedition, Ratislav tried to find out what had happened in Dal Shabet during his journey. It turned out that the capital had been destroyed, and an unknown Order of Black Ice had declared a hunt for all sorcerers. Few members of the Tyrian's family survived those difficult times; only one of his brothers remained in Nevermore, where he had long since resided. Previously, Ratislav openly despised him, considering him an unworthy man, but his opinion has now changed radically. The Tyrian set off for Nevermore.
***
The Tyrian soon grew tired of life in Nevermore; this whole existence with its endless drunken brawls, gambling, easy women, and constant danger to one's health was simply not for him. He understood better than anyone that with his abilities, the most he could achieve would be to become a gladiator in the arena or an ordinary mercenary by contract. His brother, however, seemed to have achieved certain successes in the Old City, and even Tyler Ironfall himself had personally given him important assignments several times. Ratislav eventually concluded that it was time for him to leave the city and set out in search of new knowledge and skills. Yes, this is what he now saw as his new goal.
Now Ratislav spent most of his time training in the use of two-handed weapons. He understood that a warrior encased in heavy armor almost always becomes easy prey for a sorcerer or a marksman, so the Tyrian tried to learn how to repel enemy attacks as effectively as possible with a sword, and how to move as quickly as possible in heavy plate armor. Ratislav achieved certain successes in this when he heard about a sea voyage planned by the ruler of Haven, somehow related to findings in ruins discovered in the Wild Lands three years ago. The Tyrian decided that this was his only chance to gain new knowledge and skills, and perhaps even make a decent amount of money...

What is in parentheses (inventory) should preferably be added to the features of these items; there doesn't seem to be anything special there.
Let's see how this turns out.
