= The Executioner =

"The fear of blood tends to create fear for the flesh." The Executioner is a scholar, who resides on the island of Tvear, and in the town of Outtsmouth, who spends his time researching the different religions of rathnir, specifically ones related to darkness, and their magical practices.

Early Life
The Executioner as a child was tormented by his father. A trading caravanner who specifically sold meat for low prices across rathnir. His father, being fuelled by alcoholism and greed, would often disregard his child's plea's for food and drink, as any money earnt would simply go into the nearest town's tavern, or casino. The extensive level of The Executioner's abuse was so severe, that the father didn't even name him, after deciding that he was more of a curse and a hinderance, after killing his mother through child-birth. After enduring this disgraceful behaviour from his father for 13 years, he decided that he could take it no longer. Whilst the caravan was parked in a small town within the central deserts of rathnir, The Executioner snuck out, and into the local town, lurking around, before entering the towns scrap-yard, and seeing a foiled weapon, something beautiful yet incomplete to him. Dragging back the large "Great Knife", A massive chief's knife to reap affliction and misery from his victims, the heavy metal scraping of the gigantic weapon dragging along the caravans floor awoke his drunken father, but before his tormentor could react, using all the hate, power and strength within him, The Executioner hurled the heavy, rusted and blunt blade over his shoulder, and slammed it down onto his father, roughly cutting him in two. After killing his father, his first execution, he took what clothes, money, and food, and ran away.

Teenage Life
Eventually, after wandering for about 4 years as a nomad, scrounging for food, and acting as a measly beggar, avoiding bandits whenever possible, he found himself at Gebel, and briefly joined the Yimmu-Audal empire. He began construction on a small house next to the city library, where he discovered texts on long-lost, or interesting religions. Realising that there was more to this world than cruelty and money, which was all his father taught him. With this knew found knowledge, The Executioner would find himself often visiting the city library more often than not, and eventually came into contact with a group of dark-scholars, who enticed him about dark magic, and secretive religions, which would allow the followers to gain insight and knowledge into the nature of reality, and the purpose of life. With his motivation being at an all-time high, he set off to the south-east, headed towards Tvear.
