History and Personality

Inner Thoughts:
Raien upon first meeting may seem social or charismatic and even slightly arrogant(he's not really) at times. However when dealing with him on a regular basis you will most likely discover that somethings not quite right. You'll almost most certainly not discuss any topic with him for long that doesn't consist of something you would talk about with a stranger. Which is what Raien will seem like to most people. The terrible truth behind this is that Raien desperately desires the approval he didn't get from his family, and seeks to obtain it from other people. Granted this leads to him seeming somewhat charismatic as was mentioned earlier. However it also tends to make him share very little with other people, out of fear that they won't approve of what he really thinks. This very strongly contradicts how he would like to act, Raien can be found sulking or in a rather dilapidated mood oftentimes after mingling with other people. This roots from the fact that he is actually beating himself up for not saying what was on his mind. Overall Raien's outward persona leads many people to be slightly confused. He seems like a people person, but is also quit, he is quick to help people but is also slow to ask for any help.

Eventually Raien will move away from being "shy" around friends, once he's comfortable enough around them and doesn't feel like he needs to be worry about them judging him. However by this time most people don't feel enough of a connection with him to develop their relationship further, and already have preconceived judgments on him. This leads Raien to have very few friends in the long run. Still, someone who does reach this stage in their friendship with Raein will most likely start to like him much more that previously. The charismatic part of his personality taking over when he's around them, and the fears of inadequacy being thrown out the window. Not to mention that they'll have one of the most steadfast and loyal allies you could ever hope to obtain, even by the standards of an Isur.

Outwards Demeanor:
On good days Raien can stay in his charismatic state of mind for quite a while. Still it's very mentally taxing on him. And eventually his self conscious fears creep back in. This is marked by him not talking as much, he'll still laugh at your jokes, smile, and look you in the eye. However, something WILL be missing and this tends to make people confused. It's as if the conversation is instantly diffused.

History:
Raien was born into the world twenty seven years ago. The second son to an Isurian man of the Pitrius clan, and the offspring of an unknown Benshira women. His very birth would prove to put strain on his father's relationship with his current wife Vivian. And even while she raised the boy like he was her own, Raien's own father, surprisingly treated him like someone else's son. No doubt resentful for the damage done to his reputation, as a result of the affair.

The two parents would inevitably separate, after a few more strained years of "marriage", and while Vivian tried to take her sons with her. Raien's father was dead set on keeping both his favored first born and his resented half-breed, if only to get back at his former wife for further slandering his name.

Raien himself was never really accepted anywhere, bullied by other Isurian youngsters, and looked upon with discontent by the elders. He ended up developing a rather broken sense of self worth. As for the skills and craftsmanship that otherwise define an Isur, he proved unskilled in most if not all of them. Additionally. he also showed relatively no progress with the magic his clan in particular was known for.

Failing in all but one field, which he himself was forced to discover his aptitude for alone, as it was not a form of magic accepted by his fellow clansman. Raien found that he was, while not able to practice the forms of Djed manipulation his Pitrius brothers could so easily call upon, instead capable of manipulating his very essence and moving it throughout his body, generally to augment the only other thing he was good in. None other than the art of war itself.

Still, even this would not prove to be enough to set him apart from his peers. For, while of greater stature than his brethren, he lacked the muscle mass and near indestructible arm that they innately wielded, very seldom would he be able to overcome this during any kind of practice against Isur of his own age.

While Raien was trying to find himself among his own failings. His father was falling into both depression and sheer lunacy. Becoming increasingly violent and aggressive towards his sons and kin. This fall into despair climaxed when his own son, Raien's older brother, his first born, his favored, was forced to choose between the safety of his little brother and his own father.

Choosing their brotherly ties, Jhoezzon confronted his near deranged father, demanding custody of his little brother. This confrontation would much like their father's condition, escalate rapidly. Eventually ending with Jhoezzon himself, severing his own father's left arm from his mundane shoulder, claiming he deserved not the blessings of Izurdin.

Raien and Jhoezzon traveled together for quite some time after the fact. Several years actually. However they've recently broken apart, Raien not wishing to be tied down, and his brother seeking a trade. Currently, Raien is living in the Solar Wind Apartments. Unfortunately he has consequently lost contact with his brother, a loss which pains him substantially.

Religion

Ethics and Beliefs

Yahal:
Raien reveres the god of purity Yahal. From whom he wishes to derive a better purified life. Mostly because he doesn't believe in himself enough to know right from wrong all the time, and is secretly terrified of making the wrong decision.

I guess you could say that's why he seeks and follows a higher power. Or perhaps, he recognizes that even humans with good intentions are still just that, humans. And so he seeks a second opinion. Honestly even Raien doesn't know whats behind his beliefs. It's also important to note that, while he had no contact with his mother's side or any other Bensharian. He has developed a close relationship with their traditional god. Whether this be a coincidence, or the work of Yahal himself is up for debate. Raien obviously favors the latter and not the former.

Tyveth:
Raien derives his own code just as much from Tyveth as he does from Yahal. Aspiring to unite their two teachings into one efficient and clean lifestyle. Tyveth teaches the fundamental basis of a pure life. An honor code if you will, which other besides just knights would do well to adopt as far as our young hero is concerned. Raien believes that this code, combined with Yahal's teaching of faith, easily creates for a person steady pillars to hold them up, and gods to lift you back up on to said pillars when you fall.

Izurden:
While he acknowledges him, Raien shows nowhere near the extreme faith his people are known for. Though this wasn't always the case, during his childhood, he was extremely devout and loyal to the god of industry. Before essentially replacing him in a sense with Yahal and Tyveth. Now however he only holds a grudging respect, and perhaps loyalty to the god. And not just a little bit of resentment.

Marks

1. Raien has six long claw mark scars drug down and across his chest. The scars are faded, and obviously rather old. But can still easily speak of great pain and suffering, and not just a little luck in simply being able to survive the attack, and presumably kill the wolf that caused them.
-Received in the "Farmer's Daughter" thread.

2. Along the back of Raien's calf, there are several white penetration scars, all coming together to resemble a canine's maw. These marks aren't as faded as the one's on his chest, and we're obviously much deeper wounds at some point in time. A weaker soul might even shiver at the sight and thought of such marks, the bite that created obviously having inflicted severe pain.
-Received in the "Farmer's Daughter" thread.

3. Raien's has multiple scars on the torso, arms, and palms. Indicators of past lacerations. Some are longer, some are brighter, and some are almost blended entirely into the skin. The erratic nature of the scars is a clear indicator of some sort of past armed conflict.
