Ingvar's Character Sheet

[Ingvar Dalanos]

Ingvar Dalanos Appearance Race: Human Gender: Male Age: 26 Birthday: 4th of Winter, 487 AV Birthplace: Mura Appearance: Ingvar stands at roughly 6'1'', tall and sturdy. However, his body is only in average physical shape, Ingvar having not bothered to undergo training as arduous as his father, and as such would not have much in the way of bulging muscles. A gentle facial structure is framed by long auburn hair, which is carefully kept in shape by Ingvar - it is possibly the only thing he would ever be vain about. Two bright specks of blue look out at the world. Character Concept His (non-biological) father, an Akalak marked by Akajia, taught him the virtues of being upright and courageous; to stand on one's own feet for what he truly believed in. To be fearless, yet have the wisdom to speak with care. To see all within his sight without distinction. His Konti mother, marked by Rak'keli, softened the sharp edges Ingvar's father gave him: she gently nurtured a love for all things living and benign - life was to be treasured, and never to be harmed unless necessary. She taught him to adapt to whatever situation he would be in, to flow with any changes in his surroundings, and to always cherish a good joke. His natural inquisiveness was only encouraged by both parents, and it showed itself in his day-to-day actions; one moment he would be found trying to sneak into the Opal Temple, attempting to see what all the 'pretty ladies' were up to, and the other he would be following strangers around, trying to see what they were up to (most of the time, he failed most horribly). Ingvar is, for the most part, quite a genial person - he will treat all he meets with patience and kindness unless they actively threaten his life or that of his loved ones. Character History He was found at the age of one at the doorstep of a house belonging to an Akalak and Konti couple in Mura, abandoned by both of his biological parents. His left hand was grasping a carved ring of gold, his only reminder of his birth parents. Ingvar was taken in by the couple - who knew that he was birthed from human parents, but still decided to raise him as one of their own - and raised alongside their daughter, a Konti. He grew up in a relatively carefree household, his talents nurtured by both parents. Twenty years he spent living in Mura, enjoying the peace and quiet with his family, occasionally training in the wielding of the dagger with his father, whiling the many long hours away by studying glyphing and shielding with his mother, and playing with his sister and the few dogs they owned. But this peace would not last; having heard many tales of Riverfall from his father, Ingvar was determined to visit the birthplace of his adopted father, even if he was not an Akalak, and see for himself the locations of the tales. Roughly a season later, he arrived, and tarried a while there, visiting and bringing news to his father's relatives. Two years were spent there, and Ingvar found it slightly less difficult compared to other races to converse with the locals due to the simple phrases of Tukant he had picked up from his father. The wanderlust soon took hold of Ingvar again, and he traveled for a season towards Zeltiva, where he decided to settle down in for the time being to study the ways of his race and to study at the University. A small cottage by the sea (for he missed the smell of the sea) was bought, and there he stayed.
