Seth of Tantras

[Timgood1]

(OOC-here is the background story of Seth.)


To those who already know of Seth, all they really know is that he is a mercenary from the port city of Tantras. He came to the Vast because, as a mercenary, there is plenty of opportunities to be had; Bounties to collect, odd guard jobs, and any random job the inhabitants of the Vast can offer. The only thing that is know about him was when he was in the company of Merenay and Pansy. They were discussing a fallen friend, and how honored he was at his burial. Seth had mentioned that the best way to honor the dead is to never forget them. As they headed for the south gate they heard him say to himself “Never forget.” Perhaps indicating that someone important to him had died, and he blames himself.

He is a bit withdrawn, but slowly opens up with familiarity. He is fiercely loyal to those he accompanies, and will protect them with his life. If one was to look at this armor closely, they would see the symbol of Helm on his breastplate. Which would explain why he is so protective, as he is a devout follower of the Watcher.

In recent events, he had received a letter from the Helmite temple in the Landing. Explaining they wanted to see him, should he make it to the temple. Upon leaving the Wayfarer, he ran across Merenay and Pansy on their way to the Dale crypt. Not wanting to leave them unprotected he went along with them. After cleansing the crypt, he went along with Vincent and a few others so Vincent could test a new spell on the local goblin community. After Vincent dubbed the spell next to worthless, (at the cost of a few goblins) Matijandra and Williem decided to head south towards the ranger camp. Seth opted to go along with them and help battle the goblins that were along the way. Along the trip the trio received moderate wounds and they decided to rest at an old ruin in the Myrrwood. As they were preparing to leave, Rory appeared with a few others and explained that they were heading for the Landing. Matijandra headed for the camp, while Seth and Williem went with Rory to the Landing.

Upon arrival, he headed straight for the temple. There he was granted an audience with the High Watcher. Upon the meeting with him, Seth was asked if he would like to join the Everwatch Knights. A group of Helmite mercenaries the church hires out to earn money for the church. Seth asked why he was chosen, and he was told due to his reliable reputation as a mercenary and his devotions to Helm. The deal was that he could continue his mercenary activities with the backing of the church, as long as he donated part of his earnings to the church. Liking the deal, he agreed.

Seth can normally be found at the lake behind the Cloth and Hide, training his swordsmanship. If not there, then he is either at the Helmite temple or out patrolling the Glades.
