Shrimpsy
Lord of Altera
(SHELVED for the moment)
Name: Birgir Ferngard
Full Titles: None to speak of.
Nickname/Alias: -
KEY INFORMATION:
Age: 24, though he already looks around mid-thirties.
Gender: Male, should the name not be hint enough.
Race: Human, one of the Norvägen.
Social Status: As travelling lutist, he earns a decent enough amount of money.
Sexuality: Homosexual. He hides this except for under the most trusted, though, for fear of being ridiculed.
Height: 170 cm / 5’7”
Weight: 65kg / 143 lbs.
Date of Birth: 19th Day of Sporebloom - 2235, Year of Brilliance
Date of Death: He hopes he never needs to know this part.
Homeland: Stormhold, in the lands Avanor.
Current Home: He owns a house in Avanor, and tends to it frequently.
PHYSIOLOGY:
Build: As one who has worked a farm much of his life, he is somewhat broader of build.
Hair: His hair is of a dark brown, which is cut so that in the front it just reaches the eyebrows, while in the back it falls to the base of the neck.
Eyes: His eyes are a friendly brown.
Skin: As is usual for most living in the North, it is paler.
Identifying Marks: He has a few scars on his hands from his time on the farm, but it is easier to see him having the sinew-stringed lute strapped to his back.
Clothing: A rather simple, common outfit, dyed shades of very dark green and yellow.
Weaponry: An iron dagger is built into his lute, however requires smashing the lute to take out. It takes an extremely dire emergency to get him to do this.
Prized Possessions: His lute is his most prized possession, being with him since childhood and allowing him to make a living. A small drum, kept in a bag, is also important to him. This is used while playing to accompany with a steady beat, and he has the ability to play it simultaneously with the lute.
Hygiene: He strives to maintain a fresh and clean appearance, and so cleans himself every second day.
Voice: It is deep, but not rough or gruff. He practices singing on occasion, so that one day it may accompany his playing. It is influenced by a moderate Norväg accent.
QUALITIES AND FLAWS:
Strengths: Ability to farm, carving, can negotiate rather well.
Fears: Being found out and ridiculed on basis of his homosexuality, receiving heavy negative criticism in regards to his instrumental abilities.
Weaknesses: Has never swung a weapon in his life, and as such would take a farmer’s approach to combat.
Intelligence: He has been educated in counting and writing. He also has some common sense, a rather large bonus.
Languages: Only knows the Common tongue.
Profession: Playing the lute in taverns or on the streets.
ETHICS AND MOTIVATIONS:
Personality: He takes a friendly approach to everybody, and is quick to count someone friend. To fully trust someone, however, is extraordinary.
Religion or Cults: He believes in the Path, and will follow it wherever it leads him.
Alignment: As someone who just wants to go about daily business and seeks no trouble, a very slight slant towards lawful good.
Short Term Goals: Better playing of lute, write poems, become better in singing.
Long Term Goals: Become recognised as a great bard in Altera.
