age: 20

Concept:
A hot-headed gambler is looking for the big score.
Appearance:
Dark-haired and serious-looking, Rythan's quick smile can come as a surprise. He's lean and well-muscled, and his dark clothes and weapons are of fine quality and make. Thanks to his years in the militia, Rythan has the air of a soldier about him, though he wears no insignia. He carries the accoutrements of a spellcaster as well as the longsword on his back, and fights in a fine chain shirt.
Personality:
Rythan has the tendency of letting his emotions dictate his actions. He loves to gamble his coin, and dreams of the day he can do so without worry. Amiable with and faithful to his friends, he's a bit more reserved with strangers, thanks in part to his family's religion - he was brought up in the knowledge that religion was a private matter, and the less you told a stranger about private matters, the better.
Background:
With his family being immigrants to Nirmathas from Cheliax, Rythan was born and raised in Skelt. Rythan slowly grew apart from his family, who held to the faith of Asmodeus, while he loved the free spirit of the people of Nirmathas too well. Tutored with the best money could procure, he was an avid student, but also prone to a noble family's excesses, such as carousing and, especially, gambling. When the break with his disapproving family came, it was a shock to him to lose access to the money and resources he had been accustomed to. He hasn't quite forgiven them, though he can't exactly argue that they were in the wrong.
Part of the militia of the trading city, Rythan's career came to an end when he became too deeply in debt with his gambling buddies and he was forced to skip town in a hurry.
Rythan has made it down the river to Kassen, but his sense of adventure (and need for an income) won't let him settle there. Now he's looking to join an adventuring crew, and who better than the heroes of the day?
