Appearance Grachius Ureste is a 27 year old male native to Talingarde with a strong Azlanti appearance, Gaunt face and purple eyes. He is modestly handsome with a sly grin.
Five background concepts
1. Grachius is the son of a priest of Asmodeus, Gellius Ureste Wintrish, who until recently ran a temple in Talingarde. Grachius was on a pilgramage to Cheliax when Darius took over and killed his family and destroyed his father's temple.
2. Grachius went against the will of his high priest and Mentor, Alexite Von Krupt, when he set back out to Talingarde to avenge his family.Grachius has been stripped of his family name Wintrish for his father's failings.
3. Grachius enjoyed petty thievery in his youth, and had joined a local group of deviants calling themselves the "Vicous Seven". He did it simply for the thrill, having no real need to steal as his family was well off. One day the Vicious Seven broke into his father's temple and stole a minor artifact. Grachius' father found out and made his son hunt each member down and sacrifice them on the altar of Asmodeus as pentance. One member, Arioch Moore, was never found so Grachius killed his family instead.
4. When Grachius was old enough to offically join the temple as an inquisitor, his father put his skills as a small time thief to work and had him spy on other temples. When spying on the temple of Mitra, he witnessed a ritual that showered the priestess in light and it appeared as if the priestess was smiling at him. He became infatuated with the priestess, Aliandara.He was going to kidnap her and take her to Cheliax with him when he left for his pilgramage, but his father stopped him knowing that would cause too big a rift in the community. Now that has all changed and he thinks about Aliandara constanty.
5.Gellius' estate was given to a rival family, Doranor, that were exiled from Cheliax for refusing to submit to Asmodeus. Grachius adds them to his long list of those that must be punished.
Two main Goals
1.Infiltrate the Church of Mitra and destroy it. Above all else, he blames them for his misfortunes, and Aliandara will then have to submit to him as well.
2. Even though Grachius has many personal goals, Alexite Von Krumpt was most distressed about loosing a particular artifact called "The Mace of Horns" from the Church. One that Grachius has never seen and only his father had access too. He vows to retreive that artifact to gain Asmodeus' favor.

Three memories or quirks

2. Grachius has nightmares on occasion that he does not remember but always causes him to awaken in a fright and sweaty.
