Darren Tidecaller Appearance Race: Sverfa Gender: Male Age: 19 Birthday: 30th, winter, 494. Birthplace: The Suvan Sea Appearance: Darren Stands at a tall 6ft3 with a bulky build. He has long light brown dreadlocks that rund down past his shoulders. His facial features are kind to look upon but he is not overly handsome and could be considered average looking. Likes to keep a short scraggly goatee as he thinks it makes him look more of a man. Character Concept Darren is all about living life fast and on the edge, always trying to get himself into some sort of mischief just for the sheer excitement. Darren spends most of his waking hours trying to find some place to party, celebrating this or that. He likes to believe himself a hard man in a fight but actually has little to no experience in any kind of fight wether it be an armed one or not. Spending the majority of his life aboard ships at sea Darren knows very little about the rest of Mizahar and the rest of the races that inhabit it apart from the odd few he has met on the rare times he's at port. Has a personal hatred for piracy. Character History Darren was born to a rather small pod consisting merely of a single Palivar and 3 accompanying casinor's. Holding a total of 14 people, this meant that Darren was extremely close to everyone within his pod and spent many a late night on the beaches of beautiful islands within The Suvan Sea. Darren would sit by the warm fires singing his favourite tunes to the rest of his dear friends as they all regaled each other their tales that everyone had heard half a hundred times. Nevertheless It seemed the tales got grander and more enjoyable every time they were told. Darren had no such tales he could share as he was still young within the world and yearned for the chance to go on a grand adventure. During the summer 511 after a festival was held in honour of Darren's pod meeting another for the first time. It was the biggest celebration Darren had ever been apart of. It lasted for an entire week with everyone only sleeping after they eventually drank themselves into a near coma. Many passing by vessels saw the grand celebrations and decided to join in. The festival grew hugely over the course of the week gathering much attention from nearby ships. As the festival ran its course and the 2 pods departed on their separate ways, a few of the passer by ships that stopped to join in the celebrations stayed with Darren's pod for a short while. The crew of these ships Darren knew quite well after the festival having spent time drinking with them and swapping stories of the sea with them. One morning during the stay of these vessels and their crew, Darren awoke to the sound of metal clashing on metal. Confused and tired Darren stepped out onto the deck of their beloved Palivar that they had named "Victory" , Darren found his family and friends locked in battle with the remaining ships that stayed. The deck of the Victory was quickly overwhelmed as his Pod was cut down in front of him by the men who had claimed to be their freinds. Darren had no choice but to abandon the ship. Diving off of the deck into the vast waters of The Suvan Sea, Darren found himself without a plan as the waves battered him against the hull of The Victory. Struggling to get a grasp of his surroundings under the harsh conditions of the waters, he saw one of his pods Casinor's moored of in the distance, his only option was to attempt to swim to it hoping that he hadn't been noticed be the supposed pirates. It was a gruelling task fighting the currents in an attempt to reach a possibility of safety. After what felt like an age he finally reached the Casinor. It was completely abandoned, the entire pod spent the night on board The Victory due to the celebrations that had just finished. Using this opportunity Darren hurriedly got the ship into sailing condition and set sail, unknowing the fate that became the rest of his pod. Since the day Darren was forced to abandon his Pod he was picked up by a much larger Pod who had found him a short week after the tragic event. They accepted him as family and took Darren in without hesitation. They taught Darren how to survive in this worl and taught him how to provide food for himself and the pod by fishing. in typical Sverfa fashion celebrations were held in honour of Darrens arrival and in memory of their lost brothers they had met many a time before Many of the Pod members could recall seeing Darren as a small child.
