Personality: He is envious of other's things. He hoards treasure, art, food, wine, and anything that he so desires. 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, Ortegar is combative with any and all who dare try his patience in the slightest.

History: He was born on a small isolated farm. Ortegar liked to wander the woods near his home when he was young, something he still likes to do at least once a week.

He has made many enemies by not giving into corruption and outing many instances of it.
