Description
A plain looking man is before you. He has chestnut brown hair and well
groomed facial hair. Both ears are pierced with a golden ring and his olive
skin tone suggests he is from the deserts around Hamsah Mu'Tazz. His eyes
are a deep blue and they have a glint of mischief in them. He is dressed in
simple attire with leathers, bits of chain here and there, but overall very
lightweight and nible looking armors. He has a sheathed sword and dagger
on his belt loop which also has a few places for other rogue tools like
picks, rope, and other devices.
Role
The Man of Mystery
Added Thu Nov 9 19:45:29 2023 at level 49:
Gherod Grayson is an ordinary man hailing from the city of Hamsah Mu'tazz at
first glance. His origins are his only unknown and the only mystery he
pretends to not care about. He knows he must have parents some place, but he
has no memory of them. His earliest memories are that of an orphan, and later
a street urchin, catching rats for Habib to earn a few coppers. Plus, Habib
let him keep the rats for food. From a young age, Gherod displayed a natural
talent for inventing and crafting, often coming up with unconventional trap
designs.
He once achieved a system of weights and pulleys that would catapult annoying
seagulls from landing on window sills. Despite his creative spirit, Gherod's
talents were often not appreciated for their unique approach to trapping,
many considering his inventions as nonsensical. This led to tension within,
as Gherod sought to prove the value of his creations. Eventually, he would
earn enough coin to join the Academy for formal training, hoping he could
learn more trades to earn a better life and afford greater opportunities.
However, Gherod's path took a different turn. He was drawn to the Thieves
Guild, a group known for their unconventional approach to combat, subterfuge,
and even tinkering and trapping. Gherod embraced this new lifestyle and found
a sense of camaraderie among the thieves. There, he developed skills to help
him amass a great fortune of ill-gotten gains. His studies would eventually
lead him to the notorious Blackclaw guild who were reknown for their traps.
His inventive skills made him a valuable member of the guild. As time passed,
Gherod grew and found even more wealth in his travels but in the form of
relationships and companions. Companions that helped him to become the
Spymaster of Blackclaw.
Tempt Fate

Despite achieving success and proving himself, he did not truly feel
fulfilled. So he sought a greater purpose and ultimately joined the Heralds,
a diverse group of artists, entertainers, and adventurers who found a home
in the Inn of the Eternal Star. This marked a transition from his life as a
reknown thief into a community that valued creativity, open-mindedness, and
the pursuit of knowledge and art.
It was there he was blessed by the vision of the goddess of Death. She was
the great diety of the Eternal Star and Matron to the Heralds, and she was
the most awe inspiring sight he had ever seen. Then and there he knew he
wanted to spend the rest of his days in her service. He had always felt his
destiny was leading him somewhere special, and in her presence he knew his
fate was in wonderful hands.
Gherod's journey in life was always marked by his determination to follow his
own path, his resilience, and his ability to adapt to different ideas. He
does his best to remain a unique and inspiring figure in his world, driven
by his unwavering commitment to his passions and his willingness to embrace
unconventional opportunities.
