<PERSONALITY>

Likes:

~ His home and family. Raised by parents who loved their family more than anything else, they passed on that love to Segar. He would go to the ends of the world and sacrifice anything to protect them.
~ The north. The icy tundra of the nordlands is something Segar finds a stark beauty within. He loves the way it stretches on forever, untouched and pristine, isolated from the struggles of the rest of the world.
~ A good fight. Whether practicing for the hell of it or coming to blows against a worthy opponent, he enjoys opportunities to flex his muscles and appreciate his own strength. He does enjoy it less when he finds himself put on the defensive.
~ The hunt. The act of hunting is an affirmation of faith to Segar, and it feels like a form of meditation to him. He feels at peace when he is on the hunt.


Dislikes:
~ Politics. Something that has never been the focus of the Strandir, Segar finds politicking generally boring, distasteful and lacking in honor. However, he does see the necessity of them at times and is willing to ply the "southlander's trade" when he deems it beneficial to the clan - but he is never happy about it.
~ Treachery. Something that often goes hand in hand with politics in Segar's mind, he abhors the idea of plotting behind the back of an ally. That is not to say he is unwilling to utilize clandestine tactics, however; he draws a line where it concerns the enemies of the clan, whom he will do almost anything to see eliminated. He follows an old adage spoken by his father in this regard: "No honor for the honorless."


Strengths:
~ Determined and relentless. When he sets his sights on a goal, there is very little that can dissuade him.
~ Loyal. The thought of backstabbing someone is one he finds revolting - and it is an act he deems unforgivable.

Weaknesses:
~ Very slow to trust others generally, due to past betrayals and hard lessons.
~ He has come to develop a deep-seated vindictive nature, bordering on paranoia of being perceived as submissive to others. This makes him often rather confrontational.


Fears:
~ Reynard returning. Segar has achieved the same as what Reynard did. He feels no fear for the man, only a deep animosity. If Reynard shows up again, he will be dealt with.

~ Losing his family. His love Therese, his daughter Ashild and his sister Ellie are the lights of his life. Segar has known isolation and loneliness before, and it was Therese who saved him from it when he almost lost himself to it. He very much does not wish to return to it.
~ Betrayal. After the tremendous damage done to his family in the wake of Reynard's betrayal, Segar is ever wary of those who grow close to his family, going hand in hand with his distrustful nature. Under the right circumstances, this fear can border on paranoia.


Values:
~ Loyalty
~ Strength and cunning
~ The Hunt


Education: Segar received a decent general education from his parents, being educated in the history of the world as they had witnessed it, religion, modern houses and the like.
But most of all, his education from his father centered around Theodra and her doctrine.


Languages:
~ Common - Segar's native tongue
~ Elvish - Taught to him by his old lover Hydyra, he is mostly fluent now

General Attitude: Segar generally wears a grim expression on his features, being cordial and respectful to most but also generally being to-the-point and informal. Depending on his company and the quantity of mead in his hands and/or stomach, this grim attitude can easily be replaced by a jolly, boisterous attitude that one might expect of a northerner.


Religious Inclination: Devout to Theodra in mind and soul.

General Intelligence: Observant and distrustful of others. Whatever level of intelligence that makes him.

General Sociability: Decent?


Alignment: True Neutral

Short Term Goals:
~ Work on his writing
~ Build the Hall of Beasts


Long Term Goals:
~ Always grow stronger

~ Spread the teachings of the Huntress
~ Strengthen Stoltfar
~ Follow in his father's footsteps

<POSSESSIONS>

Wardrobe:
~ An iron chestplate and leather armor, adorned with a thick black cloak bearing a white pelt which resembles that of a deer, but with unusually long fur and thick hide.


Jewelry: None

Pets/Animals:
~ Carrots, a female husky
~ Four husky pups
~ Finn, a large male husky


Owned Homes: The Keep of Stoltfar

Carried Inventory:
~ A steel two-handed battleaxe

It is large enough that it needs to be wielded with both hands. An iron counterweight in the butt of the shaft brings the center of balance closer to the center of the weapon. The shaft itself would be wooden, with leather grips wrapped around it. The heads would be hooked, longer and less curved than a typical axe blade.
~ An arrow of high quality, sturdy and with silvery fletchings. He keeps it in his quiver.
~ His hunting recurve bow
~ A hunting knife
~ A modest amount of money


General Inventory:
~ A hand axe
~ A roundshield painted blue and black

General Wealth: Having access to the trove of stored treasures and unused funds of Stoltfar, he is well enough off that he does not have to worry about it.

<HISTORY>

Birthplace:
Camp Norman


Childhood: When he was still a baby, his birth mother abandoned him, and his father, along with Odette and the few who had remained loyal to him, traveled to the far north and founded Stoltfar. He was raised in the isolation of the tundra. It was largely uneventful, other than the hardship that came with finding out the truth about his mother.

Teen Years: When he was a young teen, raiders attacked Stoltfar. He was traumatized by what he witnessed in their vicious attack. Following this, his father began teaching him how to use a bow and wield an ax, and eventually began taking him out hunting with him.

Adulthood:
~ Emergence.
~ Death of Tryg and Odette. Mourning. Inheritance.
~ Falling for Hy. Ellie falling for Reynard.
~ Capture by Jishrimites. Torture. Stolen eye.
~ Discovery. Eliyana captured and freed again.
~ Maelstrom. Hy's pregnancy revealed. Ellie's murder. Reynard's treachery.
~ A hunt failed. Killed by Reynard. Revival. Uncertain faith.
~ Renewed faith and strength. Change. Family tension.
~ Confrontation with Reynard. Murder. Ellie's breaking point.
~ A family broken. Losing Ellie and Hy.
~ A new light. Therese.
~ Unexpected reunion in Eldpoint. Reconciliation with Ellie.
~ A hunt finished. Aldris eliminated. Renewed family.
~ New allies and new enemies. The vyre threat.

~ Hunts and discussions. Faith deepens. A gift.


Family History: Prior to Tryg Strand, his bloodline was made up of hunters who lived in the far north, a name unknown. It is said that his great grandmother was a Forest Elf, and this is why faith to Theodra runs strong in his family. Tryg, Segar's father, persevered through the hardships of the exodus from the Northern Kingdoms, the loss of many allies and imminent threats from the bordering Anhald Empire, and founded the bastion of Stoltfar in the far northern tundra of the Eastern Frontier. The family's faith in Theodra was cemented with Tryg becoming the Sacred of the Huntress even as he grew older.

Past Places of Residences: Mockingbay, when he was just a baby

Places Traveled:
~ Queensport

~ Cherry Valley
~ Eldpoint
~ Mockingbay
~ Storm's Landing

Archery: 7/10 - He has had a reasonable level of practice to be considered proficient.

Fighting (hand axe): 4/10 - He understands the basics, but can use plenty more training.

Fighting (battleaxe): 5/10 - He is reasonably competent with the hefty weapon, and likes the feel of its powerful strikes.

Fighting (longsword): 2/10 - He is very rusty since it has been some time since he's used a sword, and it will take some training for him to recall what his father taught him.

<RELATIONSHIPS>


Relevant Family Members:

~ Ashild Strand-
His young daughter is the spitting image of her mother Hydyra, but for the Strand family's brown hair. She is the most important thing in Segar's life right now and he is determined to make sure that she grows up to be strong and prepared for the world. (Ayda )

~ {Tryg Strand}- His father, and his idol. Segar feels a swell of pride within himself to know that he has truly begun down the path of following Tryg's footsteps in the Huntress's favor, and knows that his father would be proud to see his successes. (French Roast )

~ {Odette Strand}- His stepmother. He is deeply grieved by her death, as she raised him as her own and never loved him any less than his sister, even though she did not give birth to him. He will never forget the last time they spoke, and in a bittersweet way, he knows that while she is gone, she hopefully has finally found the peace and happiness that she deserves. He has come to think that maybe she wasn't so wrong after all. (Samiwashere )


~ Eleanor- His half-sister. Segar wishes for his sister to be happy, and doesn't like the idea of her wasting away at the fighting pits the rest of her life. He also worries for her and hopes she doesn't become reckless. (Samiwashere )

~ Dunamis- His birthmother. He has no memory of her, as she left when he was still an infant. His father didn't like to talk about her and Odette held an unfathomable hatred for her. He has no desire to find her anymore, she would just be a stranger. (Zombie3255 )



Romantic Interests:

~ Therese-
Segar's firelight in the wilderness. She found him at his lowest point and lifted him out of the darkness of isolation that he found himself in. She has been there for him when he was otherwise destined to be alone, and she has been nothing but supportive of him and everything he wishes to accomplish. There is nothing he would not trust her with, and he would sacrifice almost anything to keep her safe. (Ayda )


Trusted Friends:

~ Sugar Silveira-
A friend of many years, she has an almost motherly presence to Segar. Despite her values aligning with Sallana, a goddess Segar generally regards as symbolizing naivety and being largely unworthy of worship, she has shown to be anything but naive. She has seen his family in the worst of times and she bears a protective nature about her. There are few southern nobles Segar would call a trusted ally, but Sugar is one of them. (Ruu )

~ Thordil Barumur- Thordil was his father's closest ally and best friend. The two were like brothers to one another. So in turn, Segar views Thordil as an uncle and a guiding mentor. He is grateful for the aid that Thordil has provided, and he feels that he can trust him with anything, going to him often for guidance or information when he feels lost and uncertain. (Jazzper )

~ Theo Calderon- The steward of Stoltfar, this man was a trusted advisor to Tryg for a long time, through all of the hardships. Segar never grew particularly close with him on a personal level, but his trust in him is absolute. (Edouard2000 )



Friendly With:

~ Aryn- Segar has greatly enjoyed joining Aryn on hunts and holding discourse with him regarding Theodra's tenets. They proved themselves together against the Beast in the deep wood, and Segar feels that neither of them would have survived without the other there. Segar remains hesitant to fully open up to him, but he cannot deny that with time he feels a rapidly deepening bond with and respect for Aryn. (Lannis )

~ Hamish- A man who is curious of Theodra. Segar has only spoken to him a couple of times, at the gatherings he and Aryn have hosted, but he has enjoyed every moment of conversation with him and hopes they continue to run into each other. (The Living Ghost )

~ Damien Ulamyar- Azalea's lover. Segar doesn't know him well, but by association he considers him a friend. He seems to be committed to her, but similarly also shows ambition in a less subtle form. Segar shares a healthy wariness for him, but for the time being, he enjoys the younger silver elf's company. (Baron2537 )

~ Azalea Silveira- Sugar's daughter. Segar enjoys her company, finding her entertaining. Her secret also tells him that she holds some level of ambition of her own, which brings with it some level of wariness towards her. But for now he has no reason to feel hostility, so she is a friend. (Sophe )

~ Cherysh Godfrey- The younger huntress has proven herself capable and committed, and Segar enjoys her company. He hopes to see her continue to follow the path of the Great White Wolf and grow in strength and worth. (Ruu )


~ Leighton- Ellie's liege lord. Segar shares more in common with the southern lord than he first expected, and by now he has come to see him as an ally through Ellie. He hopes that the count is able to recover from everything that's happened. (Mapboy )


Loose Acquaintances:

~ Sigmund von Hallon-
Very different from what Segar had expected, in a good way. Segar found the Anhalder cordial and worthy of respect, and Segar is grateful for the way he helped to handle the situation with Schmidt. It is only one interaction, granted, but it is a good first impression nonetheless. (Scardrac )

~ Raeyna- She seems to be rather prideful, perhaps more than is good for her, and he often finds her getting into confrontation of one form or another. He does not feel that those who have wronged her are justified in the slightest, but his sympathies only go so far when it seems she provokes such responses with her words all the same. (DizPanda )

~ Fronslin- An elf of odd mannerisms and mysterious motivations. Segar has a poor read for him, but they have found themselves on the same side in conflict a couple of times now. He will aid Fronslin in hunting a mutual enemy if called upon, but otherwise remains fittingly cautious of the powerful eviscist. (Fronslin )


Complicated:

~ Raigo Tideborne-
Segar remains uncertain of how to talk to Raigo. They have only had brief interactions overall since their falling out, and it is clear that Raigo still respects him and has some level of care for him all the same, a feeling which Segar returns. But Segar cannot deny that he still feels his trust was betrayed, and furthermore the recent incident regarding Wilhelm Schmidt put Segar in an awkward situation; Raigo's escalation of the situation to an attempt on Schmidt's life was one Segar considers to be unwise in hindsight, even if he is honored that Raigo did such on his behalf. He will look out for Raigo if he can. (GhostKairo123 )


Disfavored Individuals:

~ Branko Callas-
Sadistic. Segar does not care for anyone who can enjoy watching an unarmed woman getting beaten into the dirt in a tavern, regardless of reason. (Kostadim )

~ James McGuffin- Like the rest of the group involved in the incident that occurred, Segar believes he truly has a twisted sense of honor if he believes that what happened to Raeyna was justified in the slightest sense of the word. He strikes Segar as the silver-tongued sort, as he was smart enough to talk Segar and the Tidebornes down from their bounty on Cedlas and yet showed no inclination to respect when Segar stood in Raeyna's defense. Segar does not care to deal with the man again. (Tot )


Hated:

~ Wilhelm Schmidt-
A man who stands on misplaced arrogance. Schmidt was there when Reynard killed him and allowed it to happen, enabled it even. He is quick to mock Segar for his death and threaten to kill him again, and yet he hides behind his Southlander's Honor when invited to try. However, Segar thinks his true cowardly colors have shown themselves in his response to their brawl at the Landing. If Schmidt has learned his lesson and keeps his mouth shut, then Segar is content to avoid him. Segar does not fear him, or any man he may hire to try to carry out his threats for him. (Omen13 )

~ Cedlas- Segar does not regret anything about the way he has dealt with Cedlas. He sees Cedlas as a lowly, pathetic individual who yearns to be feared and respected but lacks the spine or the wisdom to earn either - only disdain. Perhaps he truly does believe he is faithful to the Huntress, but Segar views his commitment as deeply flawed and arrogant. Segar will not hesitate to kill him again if Cedlas crosses him again. (Swiftspear )

~ Reynard- The man is a traitor and a mad dog. His arrogance knows no bounds and he has threatened Segar's family and done too much damage to ever be redeemed. (TheDeester )
