La'gash

La'gash is a tigryn ex-monk and mercenary. He was a member of the Mer'toth but left after coming to a difference in philosophy with the leaders of the order. After the death of his wife Rel'gith, he left the Tiger Islands, bringing along his son Ju'toth. He now wanders the southern nations, living simply and trying to help as many downtrodden and unfortunate people as possible. Having forsaken all material wealth, he was given the nickname "The Beggar Monk" by some of those he assisted. 
==Biography==
From the age of 4, La'gash was given to the Mer'toth to be trained under their rigorous lifestyle. Living with the Monks of Shared Suffering, La'gash gained an extreme resistance to pain and was trained in the martial arts. However, around the age of 25, La'gash became tired with the constant religious discussion and seemingly pointless ordeals. He stripped himself of his monk's vows, left the monastary, and took a wife in his hometown. 
Some years later, now with a son by his new bride, La'gash was devastated to find that his wife had fallen ill. Though he brought her the best medicine available, she passed away after wasting in bed for several months. Devastated, La'gash took the event as a sign from Gul'toth and took a vow of poverty. Bringing his infant son with him, he exiled himself from the Tiger Islands and traveled to the southern nations, vowing to help all innocents he came upon.
==Attributes==
La'gash is simple and stoic, usually not saying much and preferring to listen. He is an expert martial artist and in particular is an expert knife-fighter. He is well known for accosting thugs hassling innocents in the street, handing his four-year-old son to a nearby woman, then punishing the thug before taking his son back.
