Pahr, of the sons of Eliada

[Pahr]

Pahr, of the sons of Eliada Appearance Race: Benshira Gender: Male Age: 25 Birthday: Seventieth of Spring, 490 AV. Birthplace: Yahebah Appearance: Pahr is about six feet tall, and seems to weigh somewhere around a hundred and fourty pounds. He has short, light brown hair and his figure is finely toned, as though he is used to labor. His skin is tanned like most of his race, and it is evident he has lived the majority of his life in the desert. Unibrows adorn his piercing blue eyes, which rome from side to side, as if of their own accord. Although his eyes appear normal, it is evident from his gaze that this young man is blind. Character Concept Pahr is usually kind and peaceful. He speaks a lot, and likes to tell jokes and make people laugh. Throughout his life, he has had to live the life of a disabled; meaning that he has been looked down to almost all the time. This has increased his determination. However, this has also made him touchy about people speaking about what things he does wrong, or the things that are unusual about him. He has the unconscious need to try and keep people pleased, and to always fit in. Whispered conversations, words said through looks, gestures, or glances, and generally people that don't let him into their circles annoy him a lot. Character History Pahr has grown up in Yahebah. Since in that part of the world music is a big part of people's lives, he had enjoyed popularity among the masses, despite his disability. However, he is the youngest of his brothers, and all of his brothers, having taken after their father, look at art as something only done by women. This has led to them treating Pahr as someone that needs to be pampered all the time at best, or a liability for the family at worst. This was one of the reasons that Pahr started learning Auristics under the tutelage of a wizard resident in Yahebah. His blindness, and understandably, his reliance on Auristics helped him learn quicker than someone who is just learning for the sake of being a wizard. After all, this was something that could help him see – even if it was in a different way. That did not please his family at all, though. Even when Pahr started navigating around more efficiently, going around Yahebah while not hitting his shins against whatever that might be lying on the ground, his family insisted that he was still too weak. Although no one said that allowed, Pahr still felt an outcast, more so among his own kin. So he started learning unarmed combat on his own. He started practicing a lot, using his skills in Auristics and his own form of martial arts, born out of need to grapple, to overcome his opponents. Since "feeling" for his opponent's location using their aura is taxing through combat due to the fact that his opponent moves a lot, Pahr has mixed in wrestling grapples into his repertoire of techniques, to combat with touch rather than with his Djed. Still though, his parents did not approve. This became intolerable for him and caused him to move out to Syliras. He began his journey on 513 AV, leaving his kin and his city behind him, seeking acceptance somewhere else. He traveled first through the harsh desert, and then got to Syliras on a ship through the sea.
