I've just played for quite some time, and have heard far too many 'my brother/sister/mother/father/parents/family/dog/goldfish/shovel/spam/etc was killed' stories, so I tend to sigh and roll my eyes when I read another one (even if it is well written, and shows a lot of depth behind the character, which it sounds like you have, again kudos). So take my commentary on your character's background with a grain of salt...or embalming fluids, whatever it is necros take when faced that cliche.
By the way, the last I heard the maurading band of ragers were in Emerald Forest for all of you Masters who joined because they killed your family. On a similiar note all you ragers, the marauding band of mages were spotted heading west across the Vast Plains near Ofcol. For you Sylvans and Marans out there...a group of Imperials Forest Demolition Crew was seen chuckling, and making camp in the Spiderhaunt...they probably killed your family (maran) and your pet tree, Woody, (sylvans). For you Scarabs out there...it's rumored the band of maurading Marans are chuckling over the demise of your family in the Mirkwood. Entropy...admit it, you killed your own family, but if you insist on spreading the blame...a large group of shovels were seen digging in the Aryth Ocean. Arbiters...go attack the shovels, I'm sure they did it.

Alright, I read it again and yes, it sounded pretty clichee. Maybe it'll seem less if you notice Vorador is a necromancer, and that there is much more to his nature and the nature of his enemy than what is told, but oh, well, that's an story for some months from now.
> Anyways, thanks both for the comments.
Troupe...a huge man with an axe, was seen breaking kegs of ale, and burning books somewhere off in the Jade mountian...I'm sure he's the cause of your pain. Dawn...well, go with one of the other groups, see if you can heal thier pain.
