Flarinius

Flarinius (c. 690BCE - 635BCE) was a Varappian poet and philosopher of the 7th Century BCE - one of Tairghol's oldest and most revered. He hailed from the then-proud city of Cheuria and was known to travel the surrounding areas frequently.
Flarinius had a very particular attitude in his writings, an attitude which meant he only became famous and popular after his death. He was an obsessive perfectionist, and ruthlessly criticised anything he believed to be ugly or imperfect. These objects ranged from buildings to trees and even people - his criticism of the clubfooted son of the Governor of Terpont is believed to have lead to his untimely death. Perhaps the most famous example of this, though, is his criticism of the fort that would later become the city of Ars Mons. Flarinius gave the city its name in a sarcastic jab at the fort's squat, ugly form.
