Formerly of Mordent but now residing in self-imposed exile in Nova Vaasa, George Weathermay (known simply as Weathermay in Nova Vaasa) is a famed crusader against evil and monster hunter whom has worked alongside Dr. Rudolph van Richten. Years of fighting darkness has hardened George's heart to make it void of mercy for transgressors, particularly after he was seduced by the werewolf Natalia Vhorishkova, a seduction that resulted in the severe injury of his niece Jennifer Weathermay Foxgrove.[1][2]
History
Born 709 BCCite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag, George Weathermay is the son of Jules Weathermay and Martha Scoville Weathermay, and the brother to Alice Weathermay.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag
In 726 BC, George Weathermay left his home to fight evil and help the people of the Land of Mists.[3] In his crusades, he fought alongside Claudia DeShanes, Arametrius, and Rudolph van Richten. He accomplished much and became quite famous over many adventures, accomplishing his mission of bringing glory to the Weathermay family name. However, years of witnessing the mercilessness of the Land of Mists gradually its tole, transforming his idealism into a much grimmer and more fatalistic outlook.[4] In 731 BC, George's sister Alice passed awayCite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag
In 741 BC, George met and fell in love with a beautiful and dashing maiden named Natalia. Their love was such that a wedding seemed soon on the horizon. However, this was but a ruse, for Natalia was actually Natalia Vhorishkova, a long-time enemy of Dr. van Richten. Her feelings for George were entirely deception, for she only sought to use proximity to George to catch Dr. van Richten off guard and kill him. The scheme ultimately fell short of its mark but ended brutally nonetheless with the mauling of young Gennifer Weathermay-Foxgrove and her (as yet unknown) infection with lycanthropy. The deception and paralysis of George in the moment of Natalia's unmasking has left him with a grievous spiritual wound that will not heal, perhaps not even with her death, which he swore himself to effect. Beginning with the mass slaughter of the Vhorshkova Family down to its last toothless elderly noncombatant, Weathermay's zealottry to stamp out evil monsters has brought a callousness to his heart that drives him away from the goodness he showed in his younger days.[5][2]
George felt great guilt over Gennifer's injury, and he did not return to Mordent after the destruction of the Vhorishkova. Instead he traveled to Nova Vaasa in a self-imposed exile, where he became known as a hero by the simple moniker of Weathermay. While in Nova Vaasa,George Weathermay encountered and killed Semine the green hag.[6] He utilized the Witch-Finder Compass in tracking her down.[7]
