History
Oleg Svetsy is the new name of who was once Vishislav Donig, a fisherman turned drug of the Grand Prince of Kiev. He has been in the heat of Rus political turmoil and came out alive. Ever the ambitious he yearned to rise further from his already high social status. All was going well and fine until his hear started beating for the daughter of Bugomir, a much more esteemed drug of Prince Oleg. Bugomir however planned to marry his daughter Vesna off to another drug. Going against his better judgement he secretly met up with Vesna and promised her his love. Naturally it did not take long for this shitstorm to be discovered. The details are murky but a series of unfortunate events led to Vesna being crippled for life and Vishislav having to run for his life and evade vengeful pursuers for a year as he travelled up and down eastern europe and scandinavia. He could never get rid of his distinct rus accent so he mostly tried to adopt the fashion, selling his mail byrnie and other valuable possessions for a new set of clothing and funds to keep on the run. Right now besides his clothes he has a winged spear, kite shield repainted plain green with white edges, a seax, fishing net and bone hooks, some coin and a big bundle of food, flint and steel, rope, bowls and utensils. And he blames himself for everything that happened with Vesna on top of all that
