The player did indeed start at 5w/1w/17/13. Lothar is part of the Gwandor Campaign and we just finished our 70th session. He has completed several challenge quests to increase his affinities. Lothar is also just about ready to become a Disciple. We just need to figure out a couple of suitable heroquests for the process.
