Physical Description Name:Giph Race:Human Age:17 height:5 feet 3 inches Birthday:68th fall 494 AV Character personality Giph is a young,sarcastic and cynical kid who doesn't dare to take anything for granted for fear that it will slip through his fingers as soon as he does it and jealously guards his possesions with all the feriocity of an angry mut. Most hypocritical though, he doesn't have a shred of remorse when he takes things from others. He 'justifies' this with the saying. “If you can't keep something you own safe, you don't deserve to own it anyway.” Character History Giph was born as the first and only child of a low ranking member in the ebonstryfe and his wife in the late fall. At the start of his life everything was pretty good. His father was a soldier of the ebonstryfe so he wasn't home very much, but his mother made up all the missed attention from his father as good as she could, she thought the young boy how to swim early, a skill the young boy eagerly learned, it made moving around and making mischief around the city with his friends a lot easier. Of course, not all nice things could last, his mother fell sick when he was eight years old, necessitating that the young boy had to help bring in some money his father's money alone wasn't enough to keep both fo them living and paying the doctors bill's. He tried begging for a while, but that just wasn't bringing in enough miza's. So he turned towards the only other thing the boy thought was a good idea, pickpocketing and stealing. His first encounters where disastrous and the only reason he survived at all to live again is that he made sure to pickpocket the non-humans that weren't slaves, the guards couldn't care less about them and usually just let him go with a slap around the ears with a promise to not do it on decent folk. As the years went bye he slowly refined his thieving skills and managed to pickpocket successfully more and more he slowly began to branch out into the richer looking citizens of ravok. Though he kept a fair distance away from the important families and their servants. He might be desperate to get money, but he wasn't stupid. Unfortunately even with the larger income from his more successful stealing he didn't have enough to give her the medical care she needed and she passed away when he was fourteen years old. He lived in his old family home since then, he hasn't seen his father since his mother died He still resents his father somewhat since he never seemingly cared that his own wife was worsening and worsening. And for the fact he is seemingly abandoned now. but for the most part he accepts that any work his father did for the ebonstryfe and the order would always be more important than them. Besides one day, he will catch his fathers attention and respect. No matter what! |
