<span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 16pt;"><strong>Magnus Arvidsson</strong> - Divine Defender of Iomedae (http://plothook.net/RPG/profiler/view.php?id=8709)</span><br/><hr/><div class="floatleft">(http://img814.imageshack.us/img814/6629/burlyknighticon.jpg)</div><br/>Magnus is not the most personable Paladin ever to walk under the banner of Iomedae, nor the most considerate.  He would be the first to correct those under the hasty assumption that all paladins are<em>nice</em>.  When a man dedicates his entire being to the destruction of evil, one tends to leave notions of civility by the wayside.  But for all the sternness, he would not be in his position if he were not a good man.  His cause is just, his will of iron, and his selflessness absolute.<br/><br/>To those who travel at his side he is a bulwark against those who would seek to wound them, and to his friends he is a sturdy pillar, supportive in even the darkest of places.  It may take a crowbar to pry a bit of good humor out of him, and a laugh is always hard-won, but his devotion to those who manage such a feat is unmatched.<br/><br/>Anyone that has set out with Magnus for long stretches of time would know that he has a daughter, to whom he sends extensive letters at least once a month.  His collection of replies is nothing short of staggering, speaking of many years of travel and earnest communication.
