Tantara the Old

Tantara

Resigned Admin
Name: Tantara

Nickname/Alias: Tantara the Old (tan, informally)
Age: 135 winters and 4 moons
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Height: 5'11
Weight: 175lb
Hair: white
Eyes: grey
Skin: white

Appearance:
The individual that is known simply as Tantara is a relatively mild-looking individual. Tanned and weathered from the sun, his face is adorned with high cheeks and a thin nose. Though it’s difficult to see due to its obfuscation by his long and stately beard, his face is almost always adorned with a kindly, grandfatherly expression.

Along with his beard, Tantara’s hair is silvery white with a few remaining streaks of light blond. Though not large, he has a reasonably powerful build due to long hours of toil under the sun. He adorns himself with humble clothes that suit his surroundings and usually avoids vivid colors.

History:
During the midst of the Great War, Tantara was born. He was raised by his mother, a widow whose husband was killed while fighting the armies of Naught, in the repressive town of Draknor. Oppressed by the hated Lord Luther, thought to have sold his allegiance to Queen Grief in order to spare himself, Tantara matured into an angry and rebellious individual. He also developed into a moral and religious person, striving to be the opposite of the unholy Lord Luther. Finally, the people of Draknor descended into the whirl of revolution, angry with their tyrannical and immoral ruler. Lord Luther responded with heavy force and, emerging as a leader of the revolution, the forty year old Tantara fled with a few remaining residents into the Far North. The Far North was relatively ignored during the beginning of the Great War due to it's extremely small population and lack of importance.

With the help of the generous people of nearby Warstrom, the refugees of Draknor found a place to settle and founded the small town of NewHaven. Tantara, now in his 60s, was unanimously elected the mayor. Trying to keep a small profile, the town succeeded for a time in avoiding the chaos of the surrounding world and developed into a bustling community. The fledgling municipality’s promising future was cut short, however, with the advent of Queen Grief.

Defenseless to the destructive potency of Queen Grief, NewHaven was burned to the ground. Managing to escape with aid of the sole paladin and guardian, ZRAMN, the elderly Tantara and his friend fled the ruins of NewHaven to take refuge in the veritable fortress known as Warstrom. The might of Warstrom couldn’t hold out the darkness forever and, just as the city looked to be breached, Cherbert opened his portal to allow for the escape of the Alteran people.

Awaking from the portal in Port Silver, the ancient Tantara knew that he was needed in the reborn Altera. Apparently the gods knew that as well and had granted Tantara, now very old, a longer-than-normal lifespan in order to fulfill his purpose. Deploying his acquired knowledge, he gathered many homeless Alterans under his wing. Heading towards the north again, Tantara founded the town of Aspendale as a place of peace in a tumultuous era.

Personality:
Tantara, on top of being mild-looking, has a relatively placid personality.

Looking for reason and motives in everything and everyone, he has a relatively judgmental personality. With him, first impressions are everything. Not prone to strong emotion or action, he tranquilly listens far more than he talks. His unintrusive, observant attitude leads to him being often forgotten about and he uses this to his advantage. A farsighted and quietly wily leader, he sees potential events far in advance and deals with problems through roundabout ways.

His trait for looking for deeper meaning and motive also leads to him having very strong religious sentiments. Being a devout follower of the god of goodness, Harateth, he frowns greatly on unjust, immoral actions and noble corruption. His worship is not only limited to Harateth though, he holds him in the highest esteem.

Also a very ascetic and frugal person, often using nothing more than stone tools, he is poorer than the poorest serf as he donates all of his income to the development of his town. He's proud of his ascetic personality and doesn't revel in material comforts

Interesting trivia:
OLLLDDDDD
slightly claustrophobic and hates spelunking and mining
hasn't possessed a diamond tool since the cataclysm
doesn't have a house and yet is the mayor of a bustling town
is extremely proud of his beard
is a connoisseur of cakes

Strengths: farsighted leader, clever, observant, experienced and well-read

Weaknesses: horrible fighter, terrible miner, bad with money

Friends: Arkkaine - friendly lord of Warstrom. Trouble Kelp - co-mayor. He's like a short, fat, angry brother. Moochick - another co-mayor. She's forever helpful and resourceful. ZRAMN - fellow refugee of NewHaven

Somewhat edited.... I'm afraid that there's probably anachronism, though... will try to fix... XD

Edit: Yes, that works.
