Xardasar

Male Dark Elf Warlock

Born in The City of Gloom

STR 12 INT 4 WIS 14 DEX 6 CON 13 CHA 10

Character Backstory:

Xardasar’s parents are both high-ranking members of the Theosian Church, his mother the regent of the church’s seminary and his father the bishop of one of the church’s largest parishes. He’s been raised to believe in the teachings of Theosianism. He’s never questioned them or thought about them. Everything he knows has come from his parents and their teachings. Xardasar is a fierce magic-user, and his father sees him as the future leader of Theosianism within the kingdom of Grabisco.

Personality:

Xardasar is incredibly knowledgeable about religion in general. He believes everything he’s told and accepts it without question. When his beliefs are challenged, he gets defensive and often times will argue with a person for hours on end about why his faith is correct. Despite being the son of a bishop, he’s a good guy at heart and often helps the less fortunate.

Appearance:

Xardasar has short white hair with a faint blue hue. His fair skin is riddled with piercings; his ears, eyebrows, nose, and a stud on his lower lip. He dresses in a long black robe with the lower half of his face covered by a silver mask, reminiscent of the old order of monks who prided themselves on their ability to hide their identity.

Start of Character:

Wanted for murder and several other crimes, Xardasar is on the run from the law. When the chance to adventure appeared, he snapped it up and left his old life behind.
