Harper, tell me of the road...
Username: Lilacdew
Character Number: 3rd
Name: Ageomi
Age: 33
Birth Season: Winter
Gender: Male
Location: Delant Collegium
Rank: Master
Craft: Healer Craft
That leads beyond this hold...
Appearance:
Ageomi is a startling kind of man. He's not supremely handsome, and he's not an old man befitting of any stereotypes. In truth, if one must judge his looks, he might be called cute or vaguely handsome. He can often be found wearing clothing to suit the job he has to do, ranging from leathers to soft fabrics in Healer colours.
Standing at 5'8", Ageomi is about average in height for a man. His skin is pale from hours spent over medicines, and his large hands are sturdy and nimble. His stature is slight, siding on the skinny side, and his tousled light brown hair is cut to hang no lower than his ears. The one striking thing about this man is his ice blue eyes, while his slender lips are the one soft feature about the harsh face.
That wends its way around the hill...
Personality:
Ageomi isn't really the type who is everybody's friend. In fact, he'd much rather be as reclusive as he could possibly be. He's incredibly intelligent and dedicated to his job. If you need a patch job or surgery done, no one is better suited for it than this master Healer. In fact, he is famous for his skill, and infamous for his ability to absolutely offend the majority of people without even trying.
This Master Healer often says what's on his mind. It's not that he doesn't have tact, for he will utilize it if he has to. It's more that he enjoys being blunt, since he lacks the time to do anything else. If he looks at a raw wound, he won't think twice about saying how horrible it is. A broken leg? Of course he can set it, but that's certainly a nasty piece of work. Speaking like that really helps him get across quickly what he has to, but it also makes him incredibly difficult to work with at times.
Does it go farther on until...
History: Ageomi couldn't tell you where he was born. He couldn't really tell you what the beginning of his life was like at all earlier than the age of seven. Whatever it was like, he was found with bruises and wounds in places that he probably shouldn't have had them. It was fortunate a nearby small holder found him and took him in.
The older couple, a man named Therak and a woman named Delira, assumed that it might have been a group of bandits, but there were no signs for this, and they were left to mere speculation. Regardless, the couple loved Ageomi dearly. It became clear that this child was brilliant, for all that he couldn't remember anything before that day. His sharp tongue and comments would get him in trouble, but that didn't matter.
The older couple quickly became like surrogate parents for Ageomi, but his brash demeanor was often disturbing to other people. The child didn't mean to cause problems, he just couldn't really help himself. If someone was stupid, he had to say something! Needless to say, he had several nights without dinner.
Within two years time, Ageomi showed not only a thirst for knowledge, but a quick aptitude for it as well. He could often be found with the runner beasts of the Hold, and was there when they got sick. Ageomi was a dedicated child and would try to help them how he could. One day, a herdbeast was attacked by a wild beast and no healer was around. Ageomi tried his hardest, but he lacked the skill and training, and in the end, the inevitable happened. The beast died. The young boy didn't handle it well, and decided on a course that would help it never happen again. He wanted to be a healer and nothing else but that would do at all.
So, at the age of 9 and a half turns, Ageomi was apprenticed to the Healer's craft. He progressed quickly, finding his passion in his studies more than in that of the students around him, and he became a journeyman by the age of 13. He became infamous for being willing to try any technique, and mouthing off the teachers that he caught them inadvertently misinforming students. Still managing to get through his studies regardless of how he was to the teachers, Ageomi opted to push directly on towards his Mastery of the craft. He had to know everything there was about his craft, after all!
Ageomi was given the best opportunities that could be granted to a student. He was placed in the care of a Lord Holder, nestled away within the halls of High Reaches. It went well at first, and people found themselves well cared for. When they listened to the Healer, they realized it was easy to stay in good health. Without anything too difficult to worry about, Ageomi worked hard on his Mastery, doing his best. However, as luck would have it, this was not to be. The Lord Holder grew ill, and it wasn't long before Ageomi figured out why. The Lord Holder was eating foods that he wasn't supposed to be, and continually doing so at that. Ageomi, true to his reputation, quickly swooped in on the Lord Holder and promptly told the high ranking man off. Evidence of Ageomi's true skill was shown when the Lord Holder made a quick recovery afterwards. More so, evidence of his anti-social behavior was even more prompt, as he was quickly stationed elsewhere after the event.
Ageomi was stationed once more in the Healer's hall afterwards, and he was allowed to focus solely upon his studies. Achieving mastery by the age of 21, he specialized in trying new things and difficult procedues with surgery. After gaining his rank, however, Ageomi decided it was time to travel and learn more about the world. He visited all walks of life, trying to glean a bit from everything he could. He picked up old healer techniques used by midwifes, herbal remedies used in backwater stations. His placements in holds went by relatively quickly, and he began to be called upon in manners that revealed a growing reputation for his abilities. When you're sick, you want the best after all.
After traveling about for a couple turns, Ageomi decided to stay at the Healer's hall where he could keep track of everything that was going on about the world. It made his job easier, and people knew where to locate him.
Ageomi was growing increasingly popular for healing, and disliked it intensely. Constantly called upon and always traveling about at a fast pace, he was now 30 years old with a great reputation and nothing new to learn until another thing cropped up he had to tend to. He was incredibly vocal about his boredom, to the point that it drove the Masterhealer nuts. Some people say Ageomi did this on purpose, but either way, it wasn't too long afterwards that Ageomi was stationed as the new Master Healer representative at Delant Collegium. At least they'd be well cared for, and someone else could deal with his mannerisms for a while.
It ends in sunset gold?
Pets:
Pet Name: Kabij
Pet Appearance: Not a vibrant green, Kabij finds her beauty more in the oddities of her markings than in the richness of her color. Her wings appear as though dipped in a lighter shade than the rest of her body, her nose and back marked with circles of the same light green that creates such an oddity on her otherwise unremarkable green hide. Not too dainty, her build is sturdy with a broad wing span and a slender tail. Her eyes are constantly bright, her body filled with energy.
Pet Personality: Kabij is a somewhat sleepy kind of firelizard. It's not that she's lazy, for in essence, she is an adoring doll who clearly loves Ageomi-Who never seems to love anyone else as it is. Regardless, charming and eager, she can constantly be found sleeping in a corner or perhaps directly on top of Ageomi's books. Sometimes a cause of agitation for the Healer, it's obvious that she has somehow managed to worm her way into his heart with her adoring and queer mannerisms.
