==Personality & Quotes==
Adrian is somewhat decent at communication. He sometimes finds himself in a long talk about something trivial. He enjoys conversation like this, but he is not fantastic at initiating them. He can come off as awkward or somewhat blunt, and at times, even rude, if not on purpose.
Adrian can be described as somewhat morally gray. He does not necessarily follow a specific code. His perspective on the world is still new and fresh from the clutches of his village. However, Adrian’s decisions can be very much based on his emotions, which he himself has a hard time getting a hold of. Adrian still has a moral compass, but whether or not he acts for good is questionable.
He is prone to dips in behavior or mood. Although he wouldn’t say he has a fantastic read of his emotions or others, he is decent at putting up a facade or changing his personality to suit most scenarios, or with certain people. He can also be persuasive at times, attempting to negotiate the best deal for him in any given situation. 
Adrian respects the beliefs of others, and doesn’t seem to really despise anything or anybody in particular.
Adrian can be driven by emotion. He is easy to show his dislike of something or somebody if prompted, but he attempts to be cordial with people. His anger can sometimes be unwarranted.
The anguish and sobs he never got to experience affect him to his deepest roots, though Adrian tries to live to forget. 
==Fun Facts!==
*Adrian is terrified of kinship and love alike, “sea monsters”, and his things being taken away from him.
* Due to his upbringing, he has a number of superstitions that at times, may seem nonsensical. Sometimes, he’ll just make one up; but he won’t say what’s true.
* He has a tendency to collect little items if he finds them intriguing. 
* He enjoys cooking, even if he is not a fantastic chef.
* Adrian doesn’t celebrate his birthdays. Even during the time of his village, it was seen as a waste of time and resources in an already struggling area. Still, he deeply desires a birthday party.
* His given name, Adrastus, makes him uncomfortable. He already tries so hard to nearly forget about it.
==History==
===Early Life===
Born Adrastus Grimona, to parents who wanted nothing more from him than the extra bread and land that would come with his birth, Adrastus knew that from an early age, he would have to rely on himself. He had many siblings, and although life was dull and long, Adrastus grew to tolerate them. His hold and understanding of emotions was stunted due to his upbringing, but it did not stop him from attempting to make the most out of such a dull life.  
Adrastus grew restless, oftentimes sneaking off from his house and past the walls of his village. The natural rapids separated him from the expanses of the world, if by his own irrational fears or the fear of abandoning everything that he had known up to that point. Before the adults of the village dragged him back, he enjoyed sitting by the river and watching it, its powerful gorgeous crashes of blue against rocks under both the sun and the shade of trees. 
If nothing else, his father taught him how to fish. Adrastus took up fishing quite well; atleast, his interest in it. The pure silence of waiting for a tug was bliss to him; thoughts would run free of his mind. The spoils of bliss were even far more divine, and the fish that he didn't cook and eat were sold. Although it took some time for him to actually gather enough fish to sell, it was still an experience he held dear to his heart, even if he didn't intend to.
And when Adrastus was 12, his dreams of buying a fancy fishing pole with the money that he gained from selling his fish were lost to the faults of humanity, as a legion of thieves came to his village.
===Recent Life Events===
His parents were executed, and so were the elders and those deemed too old or too weak. The legion, overnight, executed those deemed worthless, and gathered the young and worthy. From that moment, the remaining kin of the village were now the property of the legion, and would be absorbed into their numbers. 
From the age of 12 to 15, Adrastus worked as a part of the kitchen line and laborer for the legion. His payment for this was his life and meager rations, which kept him frail and vulnerable to the violence of the thieves. They were an organization bent on conquering the region, and now Adrastus had been misplaced in their numbers. Though Adrastus would never see the other members of his family; who had presumably perished or gone off to labor, his time to learn grief was, akin to him, misplaced and masked by the life he unfortunately led.
Too afraid and far too weak to resist, his life under the command of the legion was dull and long, and his days seemed to go on forever. At times, he questioned his purpose in life and pondered about the things he could have done; the man that he could have been.
The same unraveling of reality by the hands of humans occurred once more, as some thief had apparently killed the leader of the legion. Pandemonium within the ranks occurred, as fights for power in the region broke out before the flames extinguished only through violence. In the midst of violence, Adrastus fled the ranks, as did many other survivors. Though many perished as the thieves came to chase them, Adrastus ran, and never stopped.
His legs ran faster than his thoughts, and the life that he was so terrified of abandoning those years ago slipped past his fingers as easily as his choice of passing the rapids that used to obstruct his reality from truth.
===Present Life===
The boy, a tired and withered sapling blossomed in the nature of this world beyond his own. In his escape, he managed to cross a forest in a matter of days. Exhausted and starving, the boy resorted to eating anything that seemed edible, and though he had more failures than successes, it kept him going until he found a small village.
Nursed back to health by the kind villagers, his thanks remained short as he immediately left a mere week after, in the dark of the night. 
Adrastus walked away with the remains of his life in his clenched fists. He did not feel for quite some time, but as he wandered the expanses of the world, the realization that his entire family was gone and that he was alone in this world had hit him. The mental anguish did not seem to reach him, and though the realization was met with heavy, powerful and wheezing breaths and his world felt like it would break again, Adrastus kept on walking. 
The world moved with money. "Adrian," the new chosen name of the young man, realized this soon enough after a rather harsh encounter with a meat vendor. Adrian made money however he could as he traveled the lands, doing odd jobs and forming a faint reputation. From cleaning stables to fishing once more, he sustained himself. It was scary at first, but with the company of his own thoughts, he bared his teeth against the world. Adrian travels, if only out of his curiosity for what lies in the world. Wandering had become his life far earlier than he had realized, and he walks aimlessly and without knowledge, eager to see what falls upon him next.
