Personality
Carth is quite optimistic, and tends to stay cheerful even in hard situations. When he needs to Carth can be quite frightening, although he tends not to do so often. Carth has not had a real community since the monastery and is hopeful to find one in Faclon's Hollow. He cares deeply about his ancestry and has explored it in great depth. He has traced his blood back to several minor angels and demons long ago. He has also traced his blood back to one of a few dragons, who he dreams might still be alive. More than anything in the world Carth hopes to one day meet one of his otherworldly ancestors.
Description
Carth's nickname "The Half-Blood" was coined by his fellow monks, a light-hearted jab at his myriad of bloodlines.
Height: 5'4''

Hair: long, white
Skin: grey
Eyes: red
Carth is short in stature but has relatively broad shoulders and is quite muscular, although not in a particularly showy way. Despite his mildly off-putting appearance his features are quite striking, sharp and beautiful. He dresses simply, loose brown pants and a long orange vest generally unbuttoned. He wears an old deep cowled cloak, usually preferring to cover his horns when in public, more for others benefit than his own. On his right shoulder is large tattoo, a stylized triangle comprised of runes from celestial, abyssal, and draconic. The tattoo reads "blood holds as much power as you allow". Carth wears a temple sword across his back, the hilt is a silver dragon with the blade sprouting from its mouth. He wears his sling around his left wrist.
Backstory
Both of Carth's parents were Aasimar. His father was a priest and his mother a knight. As a child Carth clearly showed signs of his angelic heritage. Pure white hair, pale almost silver skin, and striking golden eyes. When he came of age however another piece of family history started to reveal itself, one unknown to his family and less than pleasing to discover. Carth's eyes slowly darkened from gold to pitch black, and then developed into a deep fiery red. his skin lost its luster, apearing more grey than silver. The strangest development though was a set of small black horns growing from his forehead.
Carth left his family home to explore the nature of his heritage, abyssal and celestial. He learned the languages, familiarized himself with the home planes of demons and angels, and started to unlock his latent arcane powers. After several months of adventuring on his own Carth was badly injured after having a run in with some highway men. He awoke to an old man tending to his wounds. The old man, a member of a seclusive group of monks, brought him back to their monastery. "Monastery" and "Monks" being used loosely in that they were a group of like minded folks training and living together in a pseudo-temple to the dragon god Apsu. The monks were few in number and followed a strange set of rules and customs. They worshiped the dragons, good and evil. Carth stayed with the monks for many years, first as an acolyte, and then as a full monk. After living and training with the monks for a long while Carth took his leave. He wandered again for about a year before finally finding his way into Falcon’s Hollow…
