Joryth Lozharo

Overview
Joryth (full name, "Jorythias Diaphanous Lozharo") is commonly known as just Joryth. Is the First Prince of Lozaria a nation on the northern shores of Sparwood, He is the eldest son of Jonathan Lozharo, the King of Lozaria. Nicknamed as 'the Son of Thunder'. Despite being the Son of a King he is not the heir apparent to the Lozarian Throne with how the Succession laws work in Lozaria, with the title of Sovereign being not entirely hereditary with it leaning towards elective succession within the family that loosely bases itself on merits rather than proximity of blood.

Which meant Joryth was never burden with the expectations of one day wearing the Crown and was allowed to live a happy childhood where he was sometimes a "ball of mischief" in the household with his antics lifting the spirits of his family when times get tough.

As he grew he would slowly gravitate to pursuing his passions in further education and traveling, he is best described as a free-spirit who wishes to learn and see all the world has to offer both the good and the bad.

Appearance
Joryth is a human in appearance that stands about 6'2 in height. He has Dark Blue eyes, Ocean Blue Hair tied by a Red Bandana around his head, He is seen in his Knights uniform that he made for himself, during his formative years he admired the Knights and Masters of Arms in the City so much that he would beg for his father to get him a uniform, which his father obliged with him personally making it by hand over a course of many months, he would give it to him as 7th Birthday Present, he would grow attached to first Knights uniform to the point that it would get holes. His father would stitch it back up for him, and would teach him how do to so for himself thereby teaching him how to sew, when he finally outgrew the uniform, his father would teach him how to make a uniform of his own, although it took a number of attempts, the end result would be beautifully hand-crafted, and Joryth yet again learned another skill.

General Personality
Joryth from his early years had shown to have a passionate spirit with a air of mischief in his antics with him often playing pranks amongst his family and friends although he no longer does so as often as he had done in his formative years, he would on occasion pull some to lighten up the mood or tense situations, as he matured into a adult he developed into a rather grounded, well-spoken and a principled individual, with a touch of optimism choosing to freely pursue his own path with a quiet determination.

He tends to be friendly to almost everyone he comes across even to his own expense and detriment at times, with him rarely ever holding grudges often choosing to look pass the wrongs of the past and looking forwards, with his upbringing of being surrounded and communicating with individuals of varying backgrounds, he grew to become a individual who is very much non-discriminatory in nature who maintains fair conduct with people, never treating anyone with prejudice seeing them as just people who has their own stories and narratives to tell, and deserves at least that one chance to be listened too. Even with those who prove to wish harm on him, he would always try to compromise before resorting to the use of violence. With his alignment leaning somewhat in favour of Neutral Good.

Personality Flaws
Joryth is a conflicted individual, being best described as a self-critical Idealist, With his past experiences and interactions with the world and seeing the downtrodden of society, he grew to have great empathy to those who he perceived as oppressed with him developing a somewhat black and white worldview in his naivety as a child but as he matured his worldview turned more grey and nuanced realising that no matter what good you do for the world, it can be perceived as evil by someone in the world.

This shift in mindset made him rather self-critical on himself and reflects onto his inner-conflict as person, Although he passionately desires nothing more but to do what he perceived as 'the right thing to do' in the back of his mind there's always doubts that lingers with every action he takes, this being a consequence of his past experiences and actions.

A particular example of this is was during his adolescence when he saw crimes and injustices occurring at the lower echelons of society, appalled of what he saw, his felt as though he was compelled to act on their behalf with his unwavering determination in his taking immediate action with little thought or concern devoted to the practical after-effects of his actions and any negative political fallout which would come result as a result caused his actions that started with good intentions often times having varying consequences, and debatably did more bad then good.

With this eventually contributing to him to be rather consciously self-critical on his own beliefs and ideals and how to move forward with them in the correct manner, which contributed to his slow shift to a grey outlook of a worldview, and becoming rather more moderate in nature.

Political
Joryth has been educated by his family on all sides of the political spectrum, which contributed to him having rather centrist beliefs in his outlook and position of politics, he believes a balance should be achieved in social equality among the people on all walks of society, while still maintaining a degree of a social hierarchy to facilitate a society for a everyday person to have their hard work be based on merits and rising through the ranks.

Religious
With the House Lozharo's rule of Religious indoctrination being seen as a morally wrong crime in the Family, he was not brought up in any particular faith he however would taught of others faiths as apart of his Royal Education, with him developing a curiosity of multiple faiths, with him collecting any texts he could find on the Soleannen, Twin Dragon, and Lux in his effort to expand his knowledge on faiths and religion.

Early Life
Joryth was born in Lozaria at the Island Captial of Farrenore to his Father. Jonathan Lozharo, who's birth was a surprise to all, as Jonathan had previously had not had a Spouse, Partner nor a Lover, with the identity of his other birthparent being hotly speculated and is very much up for debate even to present day on how his birth took place with, this even compounded by his father Jonathan's comments which only put more fuel onto the fire, with gossip despite being very much tight-lipped, it had even drifted to the possibility that Joryth may of been born through 'sinister means' depending on interpretations of certain comments of his birth.

Even so upon the birth of a prince in Lozaria, the nation rejoiced and celebrations took place for a fortnight, with it being the few occasions that Jonathan who has notoriously been known for being a frugal individual, expending a lot of resources and money in honour of his son.

As a Child Joryth turned out to be a rather outgoing and energetic child, who often described as a "ball of mischief" in the household with his antics, often making his father and family smile or laugh lifting the spirits of his family when times gotten tough for them being a breath of fresh air for them, he especially simultaneously loved to both take of care of the animals and using them as apart of his jokes he plays. With Joryth later often reminiscing on his childhood thinking back to them as well as regarding them as happier times.

As a Prince of Lozaria and a potential heir to the Lozarian throne, Joryth was unsurprisingly brought up and tutored by scholars and tutors in addition of his father and other family members chipping in teaching and contributing to his upbringing in his values and beliefs, and lessons of statecraft, skill of command, administration although not being the most academically gifted student, he actively shown to be keen on having a robust education coming to value learning knowledge, with him putting a lot of effort to soak up as much of it as he can this resulted in him having delved into a number of more subjects notably literature, the arts and languages as well as Economics, banking and mathematics, with his efforts bearing fruit with him being rather distinguished among his other peers at the time and would prove to be asset in his growing arsenal at his disposal.

His father as apart of his upbringing would keep his son in shape, both hiring and appointing private trainers to hone his son's skills with his reaction time and physical abilities in athletics and combat during that time he would develop a general understanding of medicine and health care.

As he grew into his teenage years, he would slowly gravitate to pursuing further education with it now becoming one of his many passions that and being able to travel around the world with his travels and experiences with family in their trips across Rathnir and Eldham being one of the highlights of his childhood at the age of 16, he would depart the Walls of Farrenore and began traveling on his own in a journey of self-discovery.

Prince of Lozaria
Joryth from his early years to much of his ongoing life, never was restrained or burden by expectations from his family of his role of being a prince to a country, as with how Lozarian Succession being not hereditary and rather leaning towards a elective succession within the family that loosely bases itself on merits rather than proximity of blood. Left Joryth to freely living a happy childhood where he could pursue his passions and travel freely outside the country. When not traveling outside of the Nation, he would serve his family dutifully, with his Father recognising his brilliance in his aptitude and adeptness in accounting and management of finances, he placed his son in charge of the House Lozharo's finances, where he absolutely flourished in his position. with Joryth managing to secure a steady income into royal coffers as well as doubling it, He would careful monitor and actively keep accounts of as to where funds are going expenses wise and removing any unnecessary or wasteful purchases, with him cutting family spending in half.

Cartographer of Lozaria
In his travels with his Family throughout Rathnir, he would slowly develop a interest in cartography with him upon returning to Farrenore, picking up mapmaking using the extensive collection of Maps ranging from a hundred or so, varying styles all of which was kept safely in their Family Archives in creating maps of his own with him later opening up a Cartography Centre at Farrenore where he would broadcast maps he would make to the Nation.

Marriage
His father has on several occasions attempted to arrange a betrothal between Joryth and other potential brides or grooms across Rathnir and Beyond although not much came of it. with his most notable attempt being one to procure a Castellan Marriage Union to strengthen existing ties and to push for a Grand Castellan Union between Lozaria and Axelm as he had previously had desired for but it would come to nothing, as communications slowed and it appeared that the Castellans were somewhat disinterested in his proposals with the assumption that they were looking to political prospects elsewhere talks ceased of a potential marriages.

When it came to the matter of marriage, Joryth was mixed on the matter, his father from early one had stated that he would never force his son into a unhappy union, and would break it off any talks if his son had said the word but even he somewhat feels obliged to serve the country he was raised in.

War & Conflicts
As of writing with Lozaria having been a peaceful realm under the rule of his father Jonathan Lozharo, he never had to participate in a war although he would be in the side-lines of the many wars, conflicts and battles that take place in the surrounding nations in Lozaria.

Death
Yet to Pass will be documented once it takes place. given the lifespans of the Lozharo's his life expectancy being rather long, he has a long life ahead of him.

Legacy
