Dares Commonspirit

Dares Commonspirit was the son of a Dwarven father and a Halfling mother, both of whom held prominent places in Rosesean society. He took the name Commonspirit when he began traveling as a bard to make it appear as though he was 'one of the commonfolk'
At first it was very performative of him, but as he began to see the suffering across Karnath it radicalized him and he withdrew support from the aristocracy and began to make strides towards equity, he threw his lot in with the Lykosian school of thought.
He engaged fervently in politics and was reviled by the nobles, often getting into brawls with his fellows. He was sentenced to prisontime for beating a Prince near to death. This anger dominated much of his life, including his marriages
Dares married three women, which at the time in Rosesea was hardly controversial, whom he notably treated poorly. His favored child was Eidothee Rhea and it was often speculated that they had an incestuous relationship, though this was likely propaganda started by his rivals.
Eventually Commonspirit founded the Lykosia Association. Sending educators to remote Rosesean villages to teach the children there as he valued literacy and 'self-empowerment' above all else.
He is said to have been poisoned by his wives after he changed his will to give everything to Eidothee Rhea. After his death, Eidothee Rhea received nothing from the estate and was forced into the clergy by Amarhyllis where she eventually help form the Knights of Agrasil.
