Appearance and Backstory:
"Law is the base upon which society flourishes. Anyone who seeks justice by mob is giving the next person he slights tacit permission to do the same."
Robert is a bastard son of a wealthy merchant named Orion and a courtesan based out of Citadel Crest that he favored when he wasn’t with his wife. Orion acknowledged Robert as his and allowed his son to become educated.
After learning his letters and numbers, Robert was apprenticed to a barrister named Thomas Jegrent, eventually serving him as a solicitor before becoming a barrister in his own right with his former instructor’s retirement. Robert has elevated himself as a barrister and made himself relatively known in Korvosa’s legal circles. His business mostly revolves around matters of contract or tort between governmental or religious authorities and the private citizens they may work with, such as hippogriff feed suppliers and the Sable Marines or the Bank of Abadar and sea captains. It’s very dull work but having his nose in the books of every business in the city along with having a reputation as a fair-minded and capable but unremarkable legal mind allow him to have a general idea of what most of the major powers that be are spending their gold on, and thus what their mid-to-long-term goals are. He eventually grew disillusioned with the numerous abuses of the common folk he saw and sometimes was even party to in his duties as a barrister, and sought a way to address those concerns relatively lawfully.
Robert is a large man, but his size is made very unnoticable by his poor posture and rounded shoulders. His hair is brown-going-grey and styled in a meticulously spartan manner and his eyes are a light brown, hidden behind oddly un-masculine reading glasses. On the numerous occasions he has to carry classified information or head into the more dangerous parts of the city on his own for work, he carries a cold iron longsword on his side and wears a nondescript suit of chainmail underneath his clothes. On the not-unheard of occasions where he has had to fight, he hacks powerfully but awkwardly with the weapon.
