About Dr. Evarias Shepherd

There are men for whom much is written and little expected. There are men that glide through life on fae wings and hopes and dreams, loving much and caring little. There are men about that simply defecate gold and vomit up their heart's desire as if it were the natural order. Some of those men even have people to wipe their respective holes afterward.

I am not one of those men. Excuse me if I wax a little bitter, but the pragmatist in me sees the world with a certain hue that really cannot abide the worthless and the charmed.

My name is Shepherd. I am not a doctor, though it helps the brand to style myself as such. I teach what is, to my mind, a collection of worthwhile arts that inform the mind and body. Well, I will do once I've gathered a few worthy students. It's a hard thing to do so far from home and folk that know me. If I ever knew either of those things... ah, yes... the bitter...

Bad decisions and a shameful lack of guile are the culprits of the midden from which my early years were formed. Whatever you have heard of me, I am not a criminal. Well... Let me start over.

I am a decent sort.

Damn...

I try. I really do. I'm only out to make a living. No one ever told me that living would make me.

...At any rate, I find its more relevant to focus on what one will do, rather than what one has done.
