Cinder was a tiefling, an unwanted child of a Chelaxian noble house. He was sent off to a distant relative's house to be a servant. While he was every bit as skilled at swordplay and social niceties as his pureborn cousins, he was never accepted as anything but a bastard child. Desparately smitten by the daughter of another noble house wo barely even noticed him, he vowed to prove his worth through deeds, and joined the Hellknight Order of the Pike to become a monster hunter. Now he seeks out the toughest fights available. If he can't impress the nobility, at least he can shame them.

Personality:
Cinder is resentful of the his inherited station but at the same time he desparately wants to earn the respect of his family and the nobility. He usually keeps those emotions in check but he is still driven by a desire to prove that his skill is equal to any man's. Ironically, he is most at peace in battle, when he can achieve total focus.
