Character Concept:

Rigg Evis is a man dedicated to “make a better future”, in his own words and views. A better world for him, at least. He has an expansive personality and normally holds no allegiances to any faction... only to his personal agenda and ambitions. This young man inhabits in a moral grey area and may side with anyone in any situation, depending on the circumstances and possible rewards. What is morality for him? A mere excuse for weakness and cowardice.
Nonetheless, if he trusts someone and befriends this person, it will probably be a strong bond.

Character History:

Rigg was born to a young woman called Isabella who fell for a travelling mercenary in her younger years. However, after consummating their love, this man had to go away with his caravan, leaving Isabella not only heartbroken, but expecting a child. She was forced to give her son to her father’s older brother Marek and his wife, as a way to avoid “disgrace” because a son out of wedlock. Not only that, but under the supervision of Marek Evis, a relatively well-off merchant in Zeltiva, Rigg would have a bright future.

Since a young age, he knew there was no possibility he would follow in his surrogate father’s footsteps. His brothers would take the reins of the business, since they were “legimitate”. However, Rigg never protested. Who would want to live a boring life as such? He dreamed of a world yet to be discovered, with all the legends sung by bards and told by the older. It didn’t take much for him to involve himself in brawls with the other children in his middle class neighborhood. As the years passed, he taught himself how to fight wielding a sword. The situation got worse with the years, as it seemed the boy had a taste for violence at the point he nearly killed the younger son of his family’s rival in business.

Once he turned 20, his uncle forced him to enroll in the University of Zeltiva to study Personal Magic, with the hope Rigg would learn to balance himself. “Power over Mind, Mind over Power.” That was the motto he heard by an instructor called Mylu specially assigned to teach him the discipline Flux. Indeed, he helped Evis control his brutal instincts.

During his studies, he developed a natural interest in Reimancy. The instructor realized the danger it would be for someone like him to learn this discipline… not only for the sake of others, but for his own life. Despite all attempts to make him lose this interest, it didn’t take much for Rigg to find a man willing to initiate him.

The scars in the palms of his hands became visible and enough proof of what had happened… Mylu finally accepted to teach him more of Reimancy, with the condition Rigg would never try it outside the University. Mere promises, only words…

Time passed and Rigg had just graduated that day. His family was proud; after all it seemed their boy had finally settled down. A feast was held in the house only for the family and close friends, including Mylu. Kelp beer was served and Rigg, amongst his young friends, soon got excited and wished to show all he had learned during five years of study. Before his old instructor and friend protested, a flame was channeled… with another, and other. The euphoria was too high and a scream was heard. The nearby curtains were on fire, and soon started to spread fast around the house.

Later, Rigg woke up without memories of what had happened after that scream… how had he escaped? He was found unconscious close to the docks of the city with a severely burnt left hand. Those examined it said his hand would never heal again… still, the pain and the pleasure of what he felt that night. His first overgiving.

Despite the accident he had caused… he could feel nothing at all. No emotions, no regrets. He didn’t care. With only what he was found, his short sword, some gold and clothes which were given to him by those who found him, he decided to travel the lands as nothing held him to Zeltiva anymore. What secrets could Mizahar hold?
