[Iasc]

Name: Iasc (eeasc) Race: Human Born: 85th of Winter, 491 AV Age: 19 Gender: Male Birthplace: Syrilas Physical Description Iasc is quite tall at 6' 2" and of medium build. He has light brown hair which just passes his shoulders and is parted down the middle. He never ties it back, preferring for it to hang down the sides of his face. He also never brushes his hair, however he has a habit running his fingers through it every once in a while. He sports an unkempt, fuzzy beard that doesn't get shaved very often. His eyes are light blue. Overall he is quite apathetic about his appearance Languages Common - Fluent Character Concept Iasc has always been driven by knowledge, ever since he was young. It is his belief that anything can be done if you can think through it. He has never put much importance on combat as he believes it can be avoided in most instances. However, in the last few years he has taken up archery at the behest of his uncle and mentor, Sador. He has since become enamored with archery and couldn't imagine his life without it. If he wishes to do something he generally throws one hundred percent into it as it is his opinion that “if something's worth doing, it's worth doing well.” He is quite introverted and doesn't make friends easily. However, if you are his friend he is extremely loyal and will do anything for you, even if it means harm to himself. He doesn't have much to say about most topics as he dislikes “small talk” and will only continue a conversation if it's going somewhere or means something to him. However if he begins to talk on subjects that interest him he is very hard to shut up as he loves to share his knowledge with those who are willing to listen or learn. History (This needs to be completely redone, which I will do when I have the time ) Pre-Creation Iasc was born the son of a Syliran Knight. At a young age he was enamored with his fathers profession. He did not see his father much as a child, who would leave for work early and come home late. When they did spend time together, Iasc would be overjoyed. He loved to see his father in his armor, carrying his sword. That was the ultimate image of a valiant and proud person to him. He had a romantic view of his father roaming the land single-handedly ridding the world of evil creatures and people. As he grew he lost interest in the Knights. By the age of fourteen, whenever he looked at his fathers sword and armor all he could see was murder and death. He withdrew from society more and more and concerned himself with his own pursuits. He spent all his time from the age of sixteen studying mathematics and philosophy and playing music. The only person he would talk to was his mother who was always a guiding force in his life. When he had a problem he always went to her and she always helped. He has continued his studies ever since, growing steadily in knowledge. He also took up archery being inspired by its grace and simplicity. Lately he has heard of a city in the east by the name of Zeltiva which, he was told, has the best university in all Mizahar. Since he gained this knowledge he has tried to find a way to get there but to no avail. Post-Creation Fall 510 AV : Fall 1st - Iasc came back from his mother's funeral Fall 6th - Iasc met Guido Faragas and Isilla in the Rearing Stallion. It was one of the first times he had ever been in the tavern, being in there to read his book away from the busy streets. Fall 7th - Iasc and Guido went into the bronze woods for an archery competition they had arranged the night before. The competition ended in a draw, both men being of equal skill with a shortbow. Fall 15th - Iasc went to the Welcome Home to learn unarmed fighting from Stitch, who had been recommended to him by many people. (Currently unfinished.) Winter 510 AV : Winter 3rd - Iasc, in a seemingly unconscious trip further towards insanity, left the safety of Syliras and headed out into the Cobalt Mountains where he met Kuujin, a bear kelvic, and Klyphaestus, a human on a goat retrieving mission. (Currently unfinished.) Winter 21st - Iasc finally leaves Syliras, heading towards Zeltiva. On the way he meets Sasin and Stag Fern. (Currently unfinished.)
