Character History: Growing up, Càrrec surrounded himself with family and friends, only to watch all of it torn away from him the day the war began. Dark Elves entered his home village of Heima, burning it to the ground and killing his family along with dozens of others. Displacing all survivors including himself, the remaining trekked to various cities, searching for a new home. Finally, after practically commiting to the common lifestyle of a nomad, Càrrec came upon an elder Lorekeeper, who vowed to teach him all of the arts he himself had learned throughout his lifetime.
After staying with the Lorekeeper for several years, offical guards entered the village and requested Càrrec's teacher to join them back to Omnus Valley, the home of the Council. This otherwise wonderful news was not shared by a fellow Lorekeeper, who, despite several attempts by Càrrec's teacher, held a grudge at the fellow Lorekeeper's obvious advantage of knowledge. This sworn enemy instantly killed Càrrec's teacher, expecting the place of honor as Council Member to be handed over to him.
Of course, after hearing the news of his teacher's death, Càrrec swore to avenge it, and killed the murderer himself. After being banished from his village he had called home for so long, he began to carry out the lifestyles of a nomad, until the Council finally called on him to join them as their Lorekeeper.
Other (Pets, Home...): Upon his travels after being banished from the village where he was apprenticed, Càrrec came upon a young blue Western Dragon, whom he befriended and occasionally calls on to assist him to carry out certain tasks.
Role-Play Sample:
(In His Youth)
Teardrops stained his face as he shuffled down the dirt road, the cries of the villagers echoing in his ears, though their words he could no longer hear. The young Lorekeeper, or so he considered himself after his late teacher passed away, making him inable to learn any more from him, had been banished, without a home to turn to nor any possession but the clothes he wore.
As night fell, he approached the Böle Forest, where the distant cries of the wild animals inside where carried on the wind. He took refuge, foolishly, beneath its leaves, sheltering himself from the rainclouds that hung ominously in the air, visible from the bright moonlight. Almost instantly, he fell asleep in a ball beside an ancient pine tree.
As morning bekoned, the cry of a dragon startled him from his sleep, only to come face to face with it. It was standing just outside the forest, turning its head to one side, as though trying to figure out exactly what it was looking at. The dragon was of the Western variety, and was a navy blue color.
Sitting up now, Càrrec approached it, placing a hand on its nose, which was the closest part of its body to him, and extremely large compared to the young boy's hand. Almost at once upon contact, the dragon spread its enormous wings and threw its head into the air, nearly launching Càrrec into the neighboring treetops. Turning so that its side was now facing the edge of the forest, and Càrrec, the dragon looked at him expectantly. Without hesitation, Càrrec climbed on the dragons back, and was launched into the air as the dragon took off, its heavy wings flapping slowly and gracefully on either side of him.
