== Background == Hertwig van Hal exists now as a ruthless Witch Hunter who gives no quarter, but many years ago he was a mild-mannered medical scholar and physician in Altdorf. As a young doctor he used his gift for medicine to save countless lives in a budding career as a highly-skilled surgeon. The van Hal surname marks him as being part of a renowned lineage of Witch Hunters. Curiously, Hertwig himself shuns the association with his ancestry, considering the shame of their progenitor Baron Frederick van Hal to be too much to accept. In a previous age, the evil baron had been an extremely powerful and notorious Necromancer associated with Vlad von Carstein. Frederick's terrible acts at the command of vast armies of the Undead compelled many of his descendants to take the Witch Hunter oath to atone for his sins. Not all those descendants fulfil that destiny as a choice, however. Hertwig’s own path into the unyielding role of a van Hal Witch Hunter is a journey that has taken him from bustle of Altdorf to the tropical danger of Lustria.
