Aleron Mangrove

[Aleron Mangrove]

Aleron Mangrove Appearance Race: Human. Gender: Male. Birthday: Day 15, Season of Summer, Year 485 AV. Birthplace: Syliras. Appearance: Aleron stands at a pretty intimidating 6"5', and is fairly big boned, with black hair, dark brown eyes, a fairly average sized build to match his height, and a decent amount of muscle. Character Concept He is generally kind and helpful, slow to anger, tolerant, well-driven, distrustful, stubborn, over-zealous and open minded. As a general rule, he is selfless to the point of endangering himself, has strong moral principles with those he feels also have strong moral principles, but with those who he doesn't feel this is the case, he is willing to be more devious, and sink to their level, also hates time wasting. Character History Born to a reasonably wealthy family, Aleron had to do little to secure himself a comfortable life, however, such a life, it was apparent from an early age, would not be the kind he chose, attempting to walk as soon as he was strong enough, grown enough, for his little legs to support him, albeit wobbly, getting up again after each failed attempt, until, with plenty of practice, he managed to walk. Such would be the precedent for the rest of his life, until the end of his teen years, studying hard from any books he could get his hands on, any teachers willing to train him, apprenticing under any healers prepared to teach him - there'd been no doubt in his mind, since seeing his father bleed out in front him, a chance stab wound from a petty criminal. Justice had been done, but sitting over him, watching him bleed out, hopeless to intervene... The power to prevent such tragedy would be his, whatever it took. To cure any wound, to bring people back from the brink of death - ambitious aims, but then, he'd never been lacking ambition. During what little time he spent away from his studies, he, for the most part, found himself in the company of the Isur, their stubbornness a match for his, they'd argue endlessly, leaving fuming, only to embrace it all again next time, over which time he gains a basic grasp of their language. As a side hobby, he finds himself studying the language of the Konti - Kontinese - in case he should meet one, to try and find out more about healing from them, and how they might help. Among his studies, he'd found himself surprised to discover how useful elements aside from purely medicine would be, and put as much enthusiasm into those as he had medicine, using Flux to help keep his hands steady, although he'd never attempted any muscles outside of his hands, and even this alone still took some softly murmured incantations, to help focus himself. Auristics, he found came more naturally to him, something he felt more confident in experimenting with, extending his knowledge further than the mere basics - after all, he could do more to help others with it, the more he knows, and as such, it's a field he's more exhaustive with. Eventually, however, he's exhausted what he can learn, the limit of what knowledge he can gain. On his twentieth birthday, he sets out for Zeltiva, travelling with a caravan heading that way, paying a small fee for the privilege. He waves goodbye to home, bidding his mother a fond farewell, leaving with his fathers' heavily engraved rapier, at his mothers' insistence, despite having no real idea how to use it. So begins his new journey... Language Fluent Language: Common. Basic Language: Isir. Poor Language: Kontinese.
