Born the second son in the Valkeer family, and the sixth child, young Bowmarc stands at six feet and a trio of inches. Powerfully built, coupled with his family's trademark long blonde hair, Bowmarc strikes a handsome visage. Rather than pursue the life of a noble, Bomarc has answered the call of the Guardians of Franskey, the warrior element of the Church of Franskey, where he has served since his discharge.

Notes From the Chronicler
- - Bowmarc is a wild individual encased in a shell of holiness. While his devotion to his order is unquestioned, young Bowmarc has a side to him that harbors the energies of unsowed oats. Granted, engaging in some of the activities usually associated with oat sowing would not counter any Franskey doctrine, it is usually frowned upon.
- - Bowmarc appears to have cordial relations with most of his siblings, particularly his sister, Nicole, who also has joined the Guardians. His relations with his parents remain on good terms, but their courtly duties have sapped most of the attention needed by young Bowmarc in his early days. if Bowmarc has any family enemies, it would be his eldest sister Vraude, who is heir-apparent to the Valkeer Titleage.
- - If Bowmarc plays his cards right, his rise to prominence in the Guardians and the Church could propel the Valkeer family to a level of status never attained by a minor noble house, and it could easily quell the rivalry the family has with the Sordsens.

	Dearest Nicole,

Tomorrow I begin my first step toward the future by passing through the
Outwall. Though I still may not discuss the nature of my mission, I can
tell you that my heart pounds with excitement over what I am about to
do. I recall the long nights we would spend fantasizing about what evil
and adventure lay beyond the walls battlements. I will now find out how
true out fantasies were.

I know that what I am doing, along with my companions, serves a larger
and more important purpose, and that one day, our children and
grandchildren will not have to live in fear of the Warlock King and his
minions driving them into the sea.

I will communicate with you when and if I get the chance. I will also
effort to document my journeys, for the enlightenment of not only our
fertile imaginations, but of the betterment of our kingdom and church.

May Franskey Follow You...

Bowmarc
