An insight into Areth: To tell the story of Areth Emes would take a couple of weeks at best. To briefly give you an overview of his life and the way he see's things. That is more suited for this, much more suited. Areth Emes grew up in a small village in a land far far away from Fenmyr or even Faerun. His mother was a peasent who worked as a maid at the local inn, and his father was a adventuerer who passed through the village. See, Areth was the product of his the local taverns maid falling for an adventuerers charms. This caused some strife between Areth and his step-father as he grew up. Strife that ended up with Areth's step-father mysteriously dying. Areth left his village at a very young age. The reason he left was not to seek fortune or anything. No, Areth left his village due to it being set aflame by a religious sect that claimed the village to be full of traitors. The so called paladins of this religious sect came into the village one night, then began to slaughter the men and children of the village, they raped then killed the females of the village. Areth was in the woods hunting for that nights supper, when he came back the attack was at it's peak. The fires where so high, that the nearest keep swore there god allowed the flames to reach that height so all could witness the punishment. Areth made his way back to his house through the woods, it was here, as he hid in the bush, that he witnissed the rape, torture and final death of his mother. He killed the man with a swift slash to his throat, took the mans horse and rode through the woods. This time in the woods showed Areth how no man can let themselves die. For every human has the survialist instict within them. It was this will to live and this stubborn headed personality that let him head butt death and tell him to fuck off. Areth survived his trial and through many other events grew into the man he is today. He came to Faerun, to seeks new employment and then found himself in Fenmyr when he rode into a portal, chasing an enemy cleric into it. |
So this is a very small idea of what Areth is. He is a surviver, he's very stubborn, hard to talk to. He jokes around, he's rude, bull headed and drives anyone who tries to get close to him away. This attitude causes many to misunderstand his intentions. He comes off greedy, and is, but if the cause is good he will fight for it.
Areth's one hate, more then anything else, is religion. Cleric, and Paladins will invoke his hate simply for being what they are.
(Know this is an extremely small view into Areth. He's had so many things happen to him since I first created him that I couldn't even remember them all, let alone write them down. So his become as complex character in his own right. I hope you enjoy him as much as I have enjoyed rping him.-Selvec)
