Brief History:
 Tathel was born in Caydin to his father Derrin and mother Marie. He lived
most of his life thinking his father was a blacksmith and his mother a
gifted herbalist. On his 15th birthday though he learnt this was not the
case.
 Tathel's father approached him with a grim look on his face and explained
that Tathel was now a man and must learn the sword. His father followed this
announcement with-- something Tathel had always asked but never gotten a
straight answer about-- the story of how he and Marie had come to Caydin.
 Derrin revealed that Marie had once been an accepted at the white tower but
had fallen in love with a young warder in training(Derrin). Marie was not
making very much progress and became frustrated. Fearing she may never
become Aes sedi she decided to bond Derrin and run away.
 Derrin told Tathel it was one of his greatest regrets that he had agreed to
be bonded. He often wished that Marie could have waited and that he could
have finished his training. Derrin and Marie were on the run for many years
until finally they found Caydin and settled down.
 Derrin brought Tathel outside to begin his training. Tathel's first task
was to make a sword for himself. Derrin explained to Tathel that it was
family tradition to wield a sword that you yourself create.
 Derrin taught Tathel the sword for nearly a year while his mother taught
him of the world. On Tathel's 16th birthday he set out to find his place in
the world. His father gave him enough money to reach Caemlyn safely and join
the military there. Tathel though had other Ideas; he would finish his
fathers dream and train to be a true warder. Tathel's journey to Caemyln was
mostly uneventful. Upon reaching Caemlyn he was awed by its beauty and
stayed for a couple of months taking work with a local blacksmith.
 Tathel's skill in smithing having improved he reforged his sword and went
about finding a group to travel to Tar Valon with. Any fool could see these
were dark days and Tathel was no fool. He waited until a convoy was heading
north to Tar Valon and Tagged along.
 On the way to Tar Valon his convoy was attacked by bandits, this was the
first time Tathel saw real combat and it was not pretty. He drew his blade
and went on the defensive. From his training he had always pictured battle
as graceful but this battle was nothing but chaos. Staying defensive minded
he waited for a bandit to approach him. Parrying the bandits third strike
Tathel's sword broke from its hilt and he backed away quickly. Fear pulsed
through him and he cursed his poor craftsmanship. Just as the bandit began
to move in on him A spear was tossed to Tathel and despite his lack of
training in the spear he drove it home into the bandit. He looked for who
had tossed him the spear and saw a brown clad figure disappear into the
brush by the trail. The combat was done and the bandits defeated. Tathel
took the sword the bandit had been wielding but kept the spear too. He
talked with the other members of the convoy but none had seen the figure who
tossed him the spear.
 Upon reaching Tar Valon Tathel went straight to the tower to offer himself
for training using the last name Garim so as not to lead the Aes sedi to his
family.
