Description
Standing a little over six feet in height, this slender man moves with a
grace matched only by birds in flight. Fair of skin, bearing, and manner
while, surprisingly, his hair is a deep almost blue-black color.
His eyes, not far from the blue of the skies, peer intently
at all around him. Seeming to jerk towards even the most minor
of movements. The faint scent of aspen seems to follow him.

Promotion?

Well in an unexpected whirlwind I seem to have been raised from a squire.
I'm not all that sure I can live up to this, but I'll damn sure try to.
Being so tired of the killing is not likely to help, I think.
I did take a mug of mead to my father, and got drunk to celebrate. He didn't have any, but
He was still open for business. I guess he'll save it for later, that or mother has been at him
again for drinking 'that stuff' as she calls it.
Well back to work.
Bloodstains.

I am soaked in blood. Some my own, much of it my enemies. I do not know how long I can do this.
I am tired of killing, I feel as if I was tired of it before I began. I am not built for this.
I find myself unable to stop. I see an enemy and I am overpowered by an urge to erase them from
the face of Thera. I have struck on a few occasions within towns protected by the law. I have
no desire to flout the law, I just could not stop. I fear becoming tainted. I fear being too caught
up in bloodlust to stop and listen to one who seeks redemption. My friends fall around me.
I want the war to be over, but I feel like I cannot rest until it is won.
I have not spoken to my father in years, and my mother since I was young.
The projects.

Donated a hundred gold to Roavia's project of helping the orphanage. Though I agree with some that
the orphanage needs to be moved. With Hrugald's project of a forge, whether it ever be done or not
I shall donate an equal amount.
End of the path.

Well I am finally using all variations of my magic. A long road away and back.
Where I stand at the moment.
Added Sun Oct 9 12:48:52 2005 at level 47:
I have moved up to enlivening everything, seeing the invisible, and wording those in need.
I am about to fiddle with magical staves and the like, and will begin using other spells.
Not all of them of course, but I will work my way there.
The new path?
Added Fri Oct 7 23:45:44 2005 at level 44:
Many things tell me I am now on the proper path.
Though I had not increased the use of magic, the descision was made, and then I felled
the first dark one that I hunted since becoming a squire. Noting the failure before and the
success now, I take that as a sign. The Marshall as well came down on me about my disuse of magic.
If one of our number were to fall for me failing to choose to word them home, I was to be sent away
in disgrace. As I have stated to many, the Fortress is where my dedication lies, my duty, my life.
I feel I was misled by Brumm. Who seems not to have had the right of things. I worry over this
as it places my own judgement in doubt. I mean I listened to him. He sounded so sincere, and yet
he took his own life showing a weakness, that he almost bred in me. I came near it not long ago.
My family in the fortress have placed my feet on the right path. I will walk with them into glory or death.
Terrible doings.

In an attempt to save Kelayna, I have taken the life of one of the light.
I can never rid myself of this stain upon my soul.
The jade knight was merely doing his duty, much as I try to do mine.
Failure
Added Fri Oct 7 04:35:50 2005 at level 44:
I panicked and at the demand of cabal and group mates, worded. I cannot believe I did it. Fear for my
life? I was never afraid for it before.. Why?!
Seems the drillmaster would rather kill me than see me quit using magic. I quite understand his choice.
Well his timing seems like a sign, I have failed in my quest though and am tempted to end it all right here.
Hrugald speaks....
Added Thu Oct 6 16:33:28 2005 at level 42:
Hrugald makes arguments like Brumm did, only the other way. not embracing magic is like denying my nature and the like.
My favorite analogy was comparing elves and magic with dwarves and ale.
I think this last talk put me to retracing my path.
He is as convincing as Brumm.. wondering if they were related somewhere
down the line..
Well We shall see where it leads from here. I am still open to listening
to others with different views...
Finally hearing other sides.
Added Thu Oct 6 09:53:58 2005 at level 42:
I waited to see if anyone would try to try to pull me farther away from
magic, or if anyone would try to convince me to go ahead and use it.
Avoiding prompting people on it, by only answering questions as to why I
do or don't do things. Mostly been getting curses upon Brumm's head.
Levan and Dhurin seperately have made thier points known without pushing
They both had good solid arguments which boiled down to magic does
not necessarily make you weaker, it makes it to where you can face tougher
challenges. While not as insistent as Brumm, they are here and he is not
but it is not enough to make me change my mind. Word from one of the
Fortress leaders would do it, but the independent nature of things makes
that unlikely. All in all I think I'm making a poor squire, but I'll
just trudge along and do my best. I haven't learned in a while so I haven't
removed another form of enlivening from my 'repitoire'.
More on the matter of magic.
Added Fri Sep 30 14:13:26 2005 at level 37:
I've been using less and less magic as time goes on, cutting down a spell here and there.
Now I am down to enlivening a few things, but I made a mistake with practicing things in the guild
with controls, thinking, oh skills! yes okay to learn them.
This was a mistake in that the effects carry over, and I was not thinking about that.
By the end of this day I'll pull away one of the enlivens and quit using it.
Talks with Brumm
Added Mon Sep 26 13:39:29 2005 at level 31:
He makes much sense, and I have begun to wean myself from using magic, but
much like using muscles long left idle. It takes time to build strength.
I am not fully convinced, but enough to try and see what cutting down
the use of magic will do.
I know he will say that is not enough, but we shall see.
I try to keep from using most spells except via eliven. Some few I still
use, however. I'm working on it.
Just to get this down.
Added Sun Sep 25 17:11:15 2005 at level 30:
I meant to put all this in as it went along, but you know how that works out.
I just decided to go with the flow and make things up as the need came up.
So hes the child of merchants in darsylon.
He was kind of and elf-purist early on.
Spoke to someone I dont remember about everyone of the light being
deserving of the same treatment. Met Brumm later. might have been
interesting if I had met him first. but now dedicated to the Fortress
but if he can convince me of the nastiness of magic Ill stop casting
spells, It isnt likely, but it is possible for him to pull this off.
Lets see, Solo im doing poorly at this whole landing kills thing.
He feels pretty down about that. Ill have to work that in somewhere.
Hes not really bloodthirsty, just wants them to stop whatever evil
he thinks they are doing. Will likely become less talk and more strike
as time goes on. Well thats all I can remember for now.
