Nicodimus Loradi

[Nicodimus Loradi]

Nicodimus Arcorin Loradi Appearance Race: Human Gender: Male Age: 22 Birthday: 14, Fall, 492 Birthplace: Ravok Appearance: For those few people who have seen Nicodimus without his hood up the man's appearance is surprisingly normal. He is possessed of short red hair, blue eyes, and a modestly attractive face. Nicodimus is slender and while he keeps in shape, possesses a build that puts one to mind of someone who is more intellectual than physical. Character Concept Nicodimus comes across to many as very quiet and reserved, one who doesn't socialize unless required to. He displays no signs of outward emotions beyond an extremely rare show of anger. Some think it's because said feelings are tightly controlled when in reality it's a complete lack thereof. Nicodimus is emotionally dead inside. He feels nothing and as a result has no care or concern for others. People mean nothing to Nicodimus and he could care less if they are injured or killed. He also has no compunction about the use of lethal force. If threatened with bodily harm or death Nicodimus won't hesitate to kill someone and then not even be thinking about it five minutes later. To him people are tools to be used as needed and then discarded (not necessarily killed) when they no longer serve a purpose. While utterly ruthless and completely without conscience, Nicodimus doesn't kill for pleasure, sport, or without reason. Unless given cause to do so, it's rare for him to take a life. Character History Nicodimus was born the son of Cor and Vera Loradi, simple hard working citizens. As a child he lived a fairly normal life and grew up learning about Rhysol and was given a basic education in reading, writing, and arithmetic. He grew, learned, played with other children, and learned the family business which happened to be cloth weaving. Even as a child Nicodimus stood out from the others. This came largely in the form of an apparent apathy toward other people in general. Their pain, suffering, and misfortune meant nothing to the young man. This didn't mean that Nicodimus went out of his way to hurt people, he just didn't care what happened to them. It would seem that nothing pulled at his heart strings. This however would eventually be proven wrong. At the age of fifteen Nicodimus met a young woman by the name of Vadia who was a Reimancer by trade. The two struck up a conversation while he was drinking in the Malt House and for the first time showed a genuine interest in someone else. The two quickly became friends and not long after that they became much more. The two eventually fell in love and it was Vadia who initiated Nicodimus in the art of Reimancy. The main difference between them was that Vadia studied the element of fire primarily while he studied water. The two would often joke about opposites attracting. Not long after his sixteenth birthday while Vadia was away on a trip Cor and Vera found out about Nicodimus and his new Reimancy skills. The both of them, afraid of Reimancy, forbid him from seeing Vadia again. This naturally resulted in a large argument between the three with Nicodimus reminding them he was old enough to make his own decisions. In turn he was told that while living under their roof he would abide by their rules. Without the money to move out on his own Nicodimus' sociopathic tenancies surfaced once more. Seeing his parents as nothing more than a roadblock to happiness and a meaningful future, both died that night. Using his Reimancer skills Nicodimus filled their lungs with water and once Cor and Vera drowned, he dumped them into the river to make it look like an accident. There was an investigation into the death of his parents, but without any evidence of a violent death it was eventually listed as an accidental, albeit suspicious, death. As their only living child Nicodimus inherited everything and continued to pursue his relationship with Vadia, the young woman none the wiser to what had happened. Things continued to go well for the happy couple and within a few months they were engaged, then married. Unfortunately it wouldn't last. The both of them having moved into his parent's home, Nicodimus came home one evening to find their home broken into. Rushing inside he found the main room scored by several burn marks from a fight and there in the center lay Vadia with a dagger in her back. On that day a part of Nicodimus died. The robe of mourning worn at her funeral was something he never took off. Now there is only one overriding goal in the man's life, to be reunited with Vadia no matter the cost. Nothing in life bears any true meaning for him and he will stop at nothing to have her by his side once more.
