Spoiler:
PC Name: Shaf-men-Kep Khuenaten Race: Human Sex: Male Age: 32 Years Height: 6’0” Weight : 195 lbs Skin: Bronze-Colored Hair: Dark Brown Eyes: Dark Blue Size: Medium Alignment: Lawful Neutral Shaf-men-Kep is a friendly soul, albeit not an especially loquacious one. Unless the subject is Osirian, in which case one sees him change from a reserved, even distant man, into a being of childlike wonder. His mannerisms change, and he becomes incredibly enthusiastic. As he has recently changed his purview from information and education to actual exploration, he is prone to taking souvenirs. Background Spoiler:
Short Version: Shaf-men-Kep, or Shaf for short, has always been fascinated by his country's history. Feeling drawn to the ruins and legends, he often says he was born in the wrong era. He has dedicated his life to understanding the history of his people, and has even made a career of it. He teaches classes to adventurers who come to explore, and has recently decided that he needs to branch out into exploration himself. He feels his unique education will make him a valuable resource for any group, and he is a very skilled companion. Long Version:
As far back as Shaf-men-Kep can remember he was been a devout worshipper of the Gods. His family always worshipped a handful of the Gods, feeling some adherence to many Gods preferable to strict devotion to one. Primarily his parents prayed to Irori for his dedication to knowledge, that their children may become well-educated, and to Pharasma to protect them from death, and give them a restful afterlife. Iriori always struck a chord with Shaf-men-Kep, and it was unto him that he dedicated himself. He still occasionally says prayers to other deities, when appropriate, but he has modeled his life after Irori’s teachings of self-perfection through physical and mental training. He sought further education, above and beyond what he was provided. He read everything he could get his hands on, and was certain to spend hours every day training his body. He would often sit beside the water, and marvel at the abundance and diversity of life along the river, as it wound through the otherwise desolate desert. He saw the hand of divinity in this natural course of the elements, and realized the true power Irior had granted him. He was able to grasp difficult subjects with ease. Shaf-men-Kep had never realized his own natural intelligence, but it was there, nevertheless. He came to enjoy the physicality and mental discipline of the training. Shaf-men-Kep always showed a strong ability for athletics, particularly climbing onto the rooftops and jumping down off of them. He loved to explore the city. It gave him an entertaining outlet for his exercise.
This night he was foolish. This night he was careless. Shaf-men-Kep went for a run, across the roofs of the Asp district, and in his greatly fatigued state, wasn’t as alert has he should have been. He missed a jump, and fell. He crashed into the side of a building, and fell the remaining nine feet to the ground. It was then that his latent powers manifested, forming an armor around him. It didn’t cushion the fall, but it did protect his organs from the sharp rock upon which he fell. He limped away from the experience, confused and sore.
Shaf-men-Kep had found an aptitude for using his innate powers to assist him in great physical acts he would have otherwise been unable to accomplish. He was never a tremendous swimmer, but his mind and magic allowed him to push past that limitation. He was versed in gymnastics, but this new power pushed him into newer and greater heights. This awakening of his innate powers has allowed him to ensure that he can truly blend his various studies into one complete whole. Facts about Shaf-men-Kep: Spoiler:
Both of his parents are alive. He has a pair of full-blood brothers, one older, one younger. His parents are both remarried, and both married non-humans. As such, he has a younger half-brother who is a half-orc, and a younger half-elf sister. He was born in abject poverty, and had to work to put himself through school. He was able to pay for most of his way, with only a few small loans. He still owes a little to a well-off artisan, a family friend.
