Vasher Talat

__NOTOC__
==Background==
Vasher Talat is the third son of a newly minted noble family that was gifted land which was previously held by the Oathbreaker Ogres after the Good King's Crusade. His father was given a town charter, setting up a settlement with a wooden fort at its core. His father was a honorable officer in the army that served on many campaigns, eventually getting elevated to a minor noble as reward for his service.
Vasher grew up in the shadow of his two older brothers. His similarities with his father's personality lead to frictions in their relationship, tarnishing it for most of his adolescence. As his mother didn't have much time for him either, it fell to his older sister Yen to look after him. When she was married off, Vasher felt it was a great injustice that she was taken away from him.
He was trained to be a competent fighter. While also being trained in Etiquette, he wasn't very good at it - he liked fighting and adventuring more than studying the intricate rules of society. Going out to the forest and staying there for a days at a time proved a matching pastime for his interests more so than spending the time sitting around over books.
When Vasher came of age towards the end of the big war over the Stormtide Bay, which resulted in the death of Good King Arnold's father, Vasher's father told his son to either join the church or the army, leading to Vasher becoming a Paladin under the tutelage of Lady Lazarus of the Royal Court in Tides End. As of now, he hasn't yet become a full Paladin as he hasn't taken his oaths and chosen a patron deity.
He joined Lady Lazarus on her Expedition for the Scroll of Resurrection to revive Good King Arnold.
==Appearance==
Vasher is a 6'2 tall, well built man. While strong and well trained, his stature is more akin to a farmer working his field than a muscular bodybuilder. He wears his hair incredibly short, jokingly saying it helps with his speed. To the outside world he presents a beautiful smile and a pair of blue eyes.
