History: Ahvain was born into a poor family. Growing up, he dreamt of becoming a Rogue, to bring honor to his family’s name. When he came of age, he applied for a position with his town's local guard, looking to work his way up via merit and eventually become a Rogue in service of a powerful lord somewhere. Through the years after Ahvain was born, his father became increasingly distant from his family, instead choosing to pursue power in the east. Ahvain's father didn't care for him much, and the feeling was mutual. He is searching for what he claims is his rightful reward.

Description: This man is very fat, and prefers to wear black clothing when he does not wear armor. His black crest is greasy and uncared for. His gold eyes peer out from beneath his small black hat.

Personality: He misses his glory days as an athlete. He does not mind his job, but it is boring in comparison. His respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to him, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, he tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in his reactions to snap at those who irritate him, Direcris is combative with any and all who dare try his patience in the slightest.

History: He was born a particularly ugly child, much to the horror of his parents. When he was little, his rather wealthy family often ventured across the plains to a summer home near a ruined castle. He would wander through that ruined castle and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and he was stranded inside. His family spent the next few days looking for him, and could only assume he was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the plains due to the painful memories there. Direcris took refuge in the ruined castle and found the beat up quarterstaff and armor he uses now. He left for the east, certain he would find work there.
