A native of Sasserine, Rast grew up not knowing much of the elven side of his family. The son of a human seamstress who was wooed by an elf passing through Sasserine, Rast grew up in the poorest area of the Azure District. Facing prejudice and fear from others in that part of the district, Rast was often ridiculed and beaten by others in the neighborhood. This forced Rast to grow up quickly in order for him to out-muscle those he could and out-wit those he couldn’t. Fortunately, a chance rescue by a priest of the Azure Cathedral named Jaspar Hainel at the age of 15 started Rast down the path of the cleric.

Taking the young half-elf under his wing, Jaspar taught Rast the tenets of Osprem. As the years past, Rast quickly took to his duties as acolyte, assisting with the blessing of ships that came in to port. Drawn to Osprem’s edicts to travel the open seas, Rast worked to graduate to the status of full cleric so he could accompany ships on their voyages. After many year, Rast took his first of many trips on the merchant and whaling ships that passed through Sasserine. While away from Sasserine, he saw many incredible sights and applied the divine power granted to him through faith to protecting the ships he took passage on. However, Rast always made sure to return to Sasserine after every voyage.

Currently between voyages, Rast spents most of his time receiving requests from the townspeople. While most are simple requests for blessings or healing, the Azure Cathedral is connected with many of the goings on within the District, so the odd assignment does come along that keeps Rast on his toes and his skills sharp.

Intuitive and possessing wisdom and common sense born from life on the streets of Azure District, Rast has developed a keen sense of a person’s true intentions and has learned to trust his instinct. Strong willed and devoted to his faith, Rast does not respect those who don’t respect the laws of the sea. While he has spent the entirety of his life near the ocean, he longs to leave his post, blessing the whaling ships as they leave port, he loves to travel the open seas and experience all of Osprem’s gifts as they are meant to be experienced, with the sea wind through ones hair.

Decked out in a fine armored coat, Rast wears clothing in blue common of clerics of his faith underneath, the layers protecting him from the chill breeze of the coastal winds that are common in the Azure District. While he has yet to accompany a ship on its voyage, he is skilled in the use of Osprem’s favored weapon and bears a trident and shield in his hands, his wooden shield etched with the image of a whale leaping out of the water. With brown hair and fair skin, Rast’s unique feature is the missing helix and upper part of the scapha of his right ear, the result of one attack that he wasn’t able to avoid as a child growing up in one of Azure District’s tough neighborhoods. His human blood has ensured that Rast does not possess the natural elven gracefulness that other half-elves enjoy. However, growing up in Azure District’s tough neighborhoods, coupled with his training with the temple, helped Rast develop a strong, and relatively sturdy physique. Because of this, Rast has a lumbering gait more attributed to dock workers than sailors.
