Carrion Hawthorne's page

Carrion was born to peasants and learned early in life that, no matter the task, circumstances always worked out well for him. When a fire engulfed his home at the age of 6, it was miraculous that Carrion survived; his parents and livestock weren't so lucky. To Carrion, such was their fate, their strings having been cut according to a design too intricate to imagine.

Alone and on the streets, Carrion left it to his fate that he would be cared for; he was interred into an orphanage for a short time, then a wealthy family visited and were taken with him. Carrion knew that this was the natural course of his life and never despaired, even in the darkest of times. Carrion's adopted family, the Hawthorne's, took him to Sandpoint soon after, to live and be educated. It is the Hawthorne's greatest wish that Carrion become the man they see, to take his destiny and embrace it, to whatever end it may be. The tales of the Thassilonian empire were researched repeatedly by Carrion, to inspire him, and learn of great magic from the past. Carrion examined the stories, not fully believing hearsay, and desiring to experience it firsthand. The various folk stories of the town, such as the man who crafted bird ornaments from wood and suddenly disappeared, are known to him. To that end he has tried to foray outside the town often.

After diligently diving into his powers, many of which protected him, Carrion came away with a new understanding, perhaps he could accelerate his destiny, the Hawthorne's (Dennis and Deidra) gave him full support (the best teachers and guidance) and access to much of their library. His hard work was noticed by a mage who showed him the basic knowledge available of the Thassilonia empire, and among this collection the 7 runelords. All is going according to the grand design, a design Carrion looks to one day being able to alter at his whim.

Carrion stands 6 feet tall, with sleek, combed black hair, into a ponytail about 3 inches long. He has a goatee and slight beard. His eyes are green and penetrating. He stands with a grace and elegance befitting one who knows what the future holds, or is at least quite comfortable and unafraid of the unknown. He wears dark travelers clothes, a red and black motif, with a cape.

Upon meeting, Carrion generally bows, not out of respect but to find what they will do when he is vulnerable; curiousity hasn't killed him yet, but that's not his destiny. If he respects another, he shakes their hand.
