Description and History
At first glance Pariah looks like a normal medium built half-elf except for the complexion and pupil-less eyes which gives that hollow blank look. His skin is colored pale blue which gives him more of an unearthly characteristic, resembling more the brighter shade of the drow skin rather then flesh itself. Never seen without a black scarf over his face covering half of the face from nose down to his shoulders.
He seems to be hiding something whether physical or not is yet to be known. With such unique and complicated characteristics he was believed to be more acquainted with the devil himself. A cambeon as the knowing people of Faerun say. No one knows where this man had come from, many had seen him travelling with merchants as far as Cormyr. Never really showing any signs that he was a significant part in the land of the
Realms. Believed to have been raised by wolves high above the Cloud Peaks. But folks of the nearby town of Beregost say there is a hermit living among the wolves of the mountains cared for this man. But Pariah's origin remains a mystery probably even to him.
Last seen striding the plains near the Wood of Sharp Teeth meddling with basilisk nests. People seem to have let him be since he never showed any behavior that would brand him as evil. Many,
in fact were blessed by some of his deeds helping out in keeping the Sword
Coast free of monsters and the like. He never wondered south, though. He
must have been threatened by border guards posted near the Cloud
Peaks. Pariah is quite famous among the thieves guild that proliferate the
Sword Coast and to some lesser Pashas of Calimshan for his skills in the dark.
Just recently, he is also known for single- handedly bringing down a guild,
killing each and every member. Sparing no one. His reason; he was tricked
by his fellow guild members into assassinating a priest of Helm mistaking
it as a cleric who worships the darker gods. Now he is in hiding somewhere
on the mountains west of Cormyr. He is a fugitive, indeed, for every rogue
and assassin affiliated with the instinct guild is after him whether for
the gold or personal attainment. So are every Paladin of Helm across the Realms misguidingly includes Pariah in their quests to fight evil.
Rumors are spreading that he was to travel south, avoiding the coastal cities, obviously heading to Calimport to seek shelter among the
Pashas there. Believing that they will take the risk in having him in their guild
knowing his reputation. The Pashas will undoubtedly accept him, this boy
who is to come of age, a master of what they do best.
Pariah is still young and is much shrouded in mystery. Perhaps if a story is told about him shall we know more.
Additional notes on Pariah's equipment: Chainmail Armor -
Taken from a dead elf ranger. Believed to have come
from the north when inspected closely. Bandits probably ended the poor elves
life. Short Sword of Backstabbing - Taken from the guild master after
he was
killed. Bastard Sword - Simple magical sword with intricate archaic runes.
Believed to be a powerful weapon on another plane but once it was brought
here its magic degraded. It was in Pariah's possession ever since.
