Biography

Personality

He's extremely secretive about his past, revealing very little, even to close friends. He never tells anyone his name; When investing in a business in Hatmandor, he states that he prefers to be a silent partner.^{[citation needed]} He's done everything from poisoning the well of a village while working with Necromancers to agreeing to kill his client when his assassination target offers him a higher bounty.^{[citation needed]} His most heinous crime is likely sacrificing his own twin sister's life and body to the evil tyrant Gandohar, for a share of his power.^{[citation needed]}

The Hero is quite possibly the most naive and gullible person in all of Antaloor. When he finds his sister after months of searching, he's fooled by Gandohar, into thinking he's only a messenger and servant of a dark brotherhood. When Gandohar reveals the truth at Quidinar and flees, he chases him to Oswaroh. Gandohar again offers the hand of friendship, which he accepts; only to be tricked again.^{[citation needed]}

After 5 years of being beaten and tortured in Emperor Gandohar's dungeons, he had revenge on his mind. When he makes his way back to Castle Vahkmaar, a platoon of soldiers is there to meet him; claiming the Emperor means him no ill will. They drop their weapons as a show of good faith and yet again, he believes Emperor Gandohar. Luckily for him, Gandohar was telling the truth the third time around; though it's likely only because he was too weak to put up a fight.^{[citation needed]}

Early Life

The Hero reads a mysterious letter.

Little is known about "The Heroes" early life. According to one of his diaries, his family often told stories of a Relic in their possession. He never believed them, due to being as poor as 'church mice'. He was always extremely close with his sister Kyra and while they were kids, he was able to communicate with her from a distance, using Nodes.

He reveals very little about where he's from, but he states that nobody pays where he's from unless forced to.

Two Worlds

The Hero is the unnamed protagonist of Two Worlds. He's first seen in the opening cutscene to the game, riding in a storm, on horseback with his sister Kyra, avoiding Gandohar. When he discovers his sister Kyra is wounded, he searches an abandoned home in Thalmont for a place of rest, only to discover Kyra was captured by a pursuing Gandohar. After months of searching, he's given a Mysterious Letter. While resting in Komorin Village, he speaks to the Village Elder who sends him to the Ancient Temple of Throglin to clear out some Groms that have killed some villagers.

Throughout the game, The Hero finds himself earning the trust of various clans, tribes, and even an Orc to find out information on his sister's whereabouts. Along the way, The Hero uncovers the truth about his family's past and must find the Four Elemenents of his ancestor's key, which unlocks the tomb of Aziraal. Betrayed by Gandohar at the ritual to unlock Aziraal's tomb, he then travels to the nearby Black Towers and kills Gandohar's best men. Eventually, he travels to Oswaroth and fights Reist Tungard.

The Hero decides to side with Gandohar for power. He's last seen standing alongside Gandohar with his sister Kyra.^{[citation needed]}
