Personality

• Alignment: Neutral.

Brandon is a quiet person, especially around other races, he feels kind of shy around them or any race really, even his own. He's an enclosed person from being quite anti social as a kid. He's always looking for ways to prove himself infront of his peers but will not go out of his way to do it. He usually sits back and just watches the scene absorbing and learning from others around him. He seems to have a lot of patience from being on his own for so long, and just seems to admire his surroundings quietly sometimes.

When meeting other races it's usually in fear, he's so fascinated and intimidated by them that he just can't handle it. He tries to be as social as possible and always tries to be kind. But sometimes he doesn't succeed at all.

History

Brandon was born on the outskirts of lakeshire, he lived in a small cottage in Redridge with his mother and father. His mother was a tailor and his father was an ex guard who now is a tailor as well. He was always loved dearly by both of them and his life was great as a young child. As he hit the age of 6, his mother died. She was killed by bandits one day on the way to Lakeshire to buy food. When this happened Brandons father was crushed, he built up a fear of the outside world and for what family he had left, and kept Brandon inside for most of his life. He was afraid he'd lose his son just like he lost his wife.

Each day Brandons father homeschooled him about the world. Explaining him about the necessities to get by in the world. Brandon was only allowed to go outside around his house and was never allowed to venture far, he always had to come up with simple ways to entertain himself and soon grew to enjoy the quiet surroundings, admiring the world. Whenever Brandons father went out to get supplies for the house, he'd lock Brandon inside his room, making sure he wasn't able to go anywhere and was safe while he was out.

As Brandon hit the age of 12 his father decided to teach him to defend himself. Now, Brandons father didn't know too much about fighting, but he did know the basics and managed to show Brandon how to survive in hand to hand and sword situations. Brandon had fun training with his father, It was the only time It felt like he was playing with a friend.

As Brandon hit the age of 16 the situation got desperate, his father was running low on money and food was scarce, not that it wasn't scarce before, but now the situation was extremely desperate. Brandon told his father he would go out and work. But his father still would not allow him to leave the house, still afraid to lose the only one dear to him. As time progressed the situation got worse, and soon enough there was no food in the house at all. So in the night Brandon decided to sneak out for once and see if he can find something to help him make money, he still had a faint memory of how to get to Lakeshire, when his father use to leave to go there he use to watch the direction he went in. So Brandon just walked aimlessly in that direction until he came across the quiet town. The town was asleep and there were only a few people outside, admiring the night. He still felt quite intimidated by the amount of people, even though there wasn't that many.

He asked around for money and food. Explaining his situation to each person he met. He managed to make a few silver but that was it. He made his way back home. Once he arrived home his father was waiting, awake and frantic. He yelled at Brandon, tears streaking down his face. His father was hysterical. After that night his father began working again, making money, and Brandon went back to his quiet, enclosed life. As he hit 18 things were back to normal. Brandon spent his time outside, quietly enjoying the serenity, the food was still scarce but enough to live off. And his father was making money.

Not all things last forever, as Brandons father grew quite sick. Soon enough he was bedridden and wasn't even able to go to Lakeshire anymore. As the sickness took its toll Brandons father knew he didn't have long to go. Before the virus took him, he told Brandon that he was old enough to finally take care of himself, and that It wasn't fair to keep him closed off from the world all his life. As his father lay there on his deathbed he finally saw the error of his ways, and told Brandon to go out. Make the best of his life.

He gave Brandon his sword and shield that he liked to use when he was a guard before Brandon was born. Brandon stayed with his father until he died. He buried him and left the cottage with what his father left him. He stopped off at Lakeshire and bought a map, It was there he decided to plan his journey. With what money he had left, he took off to explore the rest of the world, to learn and experience things that have slipped by him through his childhood years.
