About Hanethes Starsprings

Description Although young (22 years old), Hanethes is anything but impressionable. His dark blue eyes reveal his intelligence, perhaps not a wisened intelligence, but definitely street smarts. His dark brown hair with reddish-gold highlights is moderately long, but well managed, along with his impeccable outfit of a deep wine cape and orange tailored vest, both are embroidered with serpents in gold and silver thread. Beneath the vest and white shirt, the silver gleam of mithril shows at the throat.

Personality Hanethes is bright, but strongly passionate about freedom. Freedom from slavery. Freedom from drudgery. And perhaps most of all, freedom from tyranny. He favors justice, but not the justice of law, which he sees as more harmful than good. Anarchist, Libertarian, or Libertine? Few can decide, but Hanethes is in favor of organizations and governments that seem to favor individual freedom, prosperity, and happiness. Among other things, the half elf just wants to have fun, and is quick to challenge others who would try to take it from him.

Background Although he has been in the City of Katapesh for some time, he is not native. He originally hails from Absalom, where he serves as one of the Fire Watchers at Cayden's Hall. A generous title given to just about anyone who doesn't get smashing drunk every time they come in. Here, he's been intricately involved with the slave trade resistance movement of the Starstone Brewers, and several orphanages that have accepted freed children slaves. He organized several trips to Katapesh to interfere in the slave trade that originated there, and has thus far been a thorn in the side of the Katapeshians who want to keep their illgotten slaves.
