Kadmos, Priest of Heracles
The only seasoned warrior in the village, Kadmos is charged with training the villagers in the use of weapons as well as leading the defense of the fields from monster forays. His star pupil is a girl named Iphigenia, who is a skilled archer that killed her first harpy at the young age of nine. When monster attacks are infrequent, Kadmos will work with his uncle to replenish the supply of hunting necessities such as arrows and fishhooks. Kadmos is good friends with Chisisi, who taught him how to read in his spare time, and he often accompanies Persephone's Chief Priest when he ventures far into the fields.

Personal history
Kadmos spent his young life fighting monsters in the north eastern areas of the kingdom; but when his parents were killed by a monster incursion that his squad was ordered to ignore in favour of a larger one, he left active service and became a priest of Heracles, God of Heroes. When he learned that his grand-uncle, his only living relation, was moving to the frontier to help found a new village he decided to go along and provide his experience in dealing with monsters to protect these settlers.
Education
Kadmos had minimal education, having done poorly in school and joined the military as soon as he could to fight monsters for what he believed would be glory. As a priest of Heracles, he wasn't required to learn much beyond simple rituals and prayers; however when he came to Southtip Village he became friends with Chisisi, who was offended at a priest who could not read and taught him that as well as simple arithmetic.
Mental Trauma
Kadmos considers every member of Southtip Village to be a part of his new extended family, something he did not plan on when he moved out with his uncle. The recent loss of four children from the village has sent him into a depression as he equates it to the loss of his birth family.
