The half-elf ranger never actually served time as a slave, though he was captured by slavers and bound for the
markets of Urik when Sortar and his tribe set him free.
He was attracted to Sortar's ideals, even though he was
less-than-enamored of his methods. He quickly worked
his way into a chief lieutenant spot in the tribe. Now he
sees his post as a voice of reason and moderation to stem
Sortar's more violent tendencies.
The half-elf uses his ranger skills to best advantage,
finding water for the tribe, tracking caravans, and doing a
host of other tasks. He also serves as one of Sortar's chief
advisors, rarely leaving the leader's side for more than a
few days at a time. He does not get along with the mul,
Porgo, for the gladiator wants Sortar to give in to the
tendencies Derrim tries to control. He also has little trust
for the ex-templar from Nibenay, but he attributes that
more to her past position than to her recent actions.
Derrim stands slightly shorter than six feet, has a slim
but muscular build, and has a wild mane of light brown
hair. He wields an obsidian bastard sword and wears a
suit of carru leather armor.
Derrim joined the tribe shortly after Sortar
became leader. He liked the idea of waging war against
their former masters, even if he takes a more realistic
view of their chances than does Sortar. Derrim believes
that they have little chance of doing anything more than
bloodying the figurative noses of the citystates, but he is
more than willing to contribute his share to the war effort.
