Deskest

Deskest is a nomad, fisherman, merchant, librarian and councilmember of the Kingdom of Mithra, serving as

As a half angel, Deskest has a small number of supernatural elements in his biology. While no where near the amount of abilities as his celestial father, his unique ancestry has granted him one certain gift. That of immortality.

Deskest has lived for decades, and will live for decades more, will never age and will always recover from his wounds given enough time. However, each time his heart stops beating and his silver blood begins its revival process, he wakes up in his bed without his past life's memories. While the recovery of his old possessions can spark recollection, a portion of his memories will always remain forgotten.

As "Old Man Desk"
Old Man Desk was a nomad for most of his life. He travelled from town to city across Rathnir, searching out the best sights and landmarks across the lands. When he grew old, he came across Duskopion, a city in the then-called nation of Daelyria. This was a new experience for him, as unlike the other lands he'd travelled to there were people here. He was greeted at its gates by Dusk Synderys and asked if he had come seeking a home. While it hadn't been his plan he accepted the offer and settled down in the city, becoming a fisherman by trade and setting up a market to sell his wares. He lived out the rest of his days in this way, fishing peacefully on the river next to his home.

As "Lord Silverhand"
It is for this reason that Deskest's childhood remains a mystery to him. His earliest recollection is that of fishing near "Oid Man Desk's Fishing Hut", a figure he believed was his father for some time. From this he began a life of a merchant, first by selling his fished goods at the old fish shop, then by expanding into the melon, bread and cookie markets. While trading in the city he came across Icyduck, a citizen also involved in the market, and they became friends over their shared goals of conquering the food sector. It was after Deskest defended him in a murder trial that he was introduced to Icyduck's father Miksa Silverhand. While neither recognised each other, Miksa became interested in his achievements as a merchant and suggested he visit Miksa's ocean city of Islerion, as he was at the time organising a national caravan merchant project. It was during this visit that Deskest found that he recognised the area, his birthplace triggering long buried memories. Miksa finally came to the same realisation, and there was much celebrating as the heir of the Silverhands and Islerion's throne had been found.

During the Halond revolution Deskest was devastated by his father's betrayal. He publicly denounced his actions and worked with Miksa's father, Dusk, on stopping the rebellion. When peace was finally declared after weeks of tension, Miksa fled his city with its gold and valuables, leaving the Silverhand family in a crisis and Deskest on Islerion's throne. He quickly contacted his citizens, attempting to catalogue what had been lost and scraping together enough money to help his city survive the coming days. However, with Miksa gone the Silverhand family shattered, and Islerion's citizens fled to safer areas, leaving the city to fall into ruin.

Deskest then spent the rest of his days in despair, wandering through the ruins and attempting to piece back together or recover some way of knowing how to return the former "richest city in Daelyria" back to its former glory. Until one day, in a drunken stupor, he made the mistake of taunting a nearby group of bandits while wandering the surrounding wilderness. After being chased back into the safety of Islerion's walls, he locked himself in the top of Islerion Castle's tower and, mortally wounded, launched into a mad rant, calling the Silverhands cursed and all but dead, and Islerion a lost cause. Falling into hysterics, he climbed on top of the tower and detonated TNT he had stolen prior, blowing himself up along with the tower's tip. The bandits shortly left thereafter, realising the city had lost any valuables long ago.

As "Master of Whisperers"
After recovering from this death, Deskest began life as a hermit, living peacefully in 'Silver Hut' and paying no attention to his abandoned city and ruined family. Thanks to his new habit of keeping journals, he began this life well aware of his nature and the events of his past, and used this to live comfortably off the profits his old Duskopion food shops provided.
