Kazamir von Mannelig

== History ==
Kazamir was born as the first son of the Mannelig household, within the Kingdom of Inverden. His youth was spent as one might expect of a noble son, honing the mind and body in preparation of ruling. Though his upbringing was strict and he would be held to high standards and high expectations, Kazamir withstood the pressure quite well and held a dutiful and loyal disposition to his family, viewing it as his role in life to one day continue the bloodline and assume his fathers, Karl von Manneligs, place.
The best laid plans, whether that be his own or that of his family ultimately are put to the test on the whims of world. Strife amongst the nobility of Inverden was not a novel concept, and many a noble family grows bitter at the constant competition with their peers. When this strife would come to the doorstep of the noble house to which the Mannelig household was in vassalage to, it fell upon Kazamir to fulfill his family's duty before their betters. Kazamir viewed this as an opportunity to prove himself a capable leader of men upon the battlefield. He eagerly rode out to battle alongside the noble sons he had grew up with and attended court with. This skirmish, however, escalated quickly and explosively, as the king's attention at the time was directed to other things. Villages were raized, wells poisoned, peasants either forcefully taken or outright slaughtered, and it would seem that things were to escalate into a proper confrontation between armies.
Battles are a brutal and bloody affair, but so long as one wins them, the unsavory parts of war are forgotten, and only the glory and victory is remembered. It was upon one such battle, the worst one of this military escapade, that everything changed for the young man. Stood amongst his dying men, amongst dying friends from ever since he was a child, his household conscripted into this far by some ancient duty to settle a dispute amongst two greater families, amongst cries of pain, the clashing of metal upon metal... Something changed for him. It is known that Kazamir survived this battle, one amongst few, yet as the conflict came to a close, the dutiful and loyal young man did not return home. His trace simply disappeared, and those closest to him before this occurence reported that what was once a cheerful, straightforward and enthusiastic individual became far more quiet, sharp in his gaze and perhaps even confused. 
Kazamir was slain by a cult devoted the gain of money in an attempt to force him to keep quiet, he was first beaten to a near death state by the cultists, but through the expenditure of his hero points, lived long enough to fight and nearly slay a giant snake to which he would have been fed, however he succumbed to the poison just shortly before he would become victorious.
== Appearance ==
Kazamir is an abnormally tall man with a comely face, a golden head of hair and pale gray eyes. His complexion is pale, almost a contrast to the blackened, spiked armor he often dons. His face is rarely without a warm, pleasant smile and despite his alarmingly threatening choice of attire, he projects a calming, almost welcoming image.
== Personality ==
Kazamir is calm, well-spoken, polite and quite accepting of others. He is happy to chat and lend his ear, perhaps offer a bit of advice to strengthen one's will in the face of adversity. Yet throughout it all... there is simply a certain something. Some perhaps pick up on it. Others do not and choose to indulge in the warmth he offers. Regardless, only those closest to him are privy to who Kazamir von Mannelig truely is, and what he stands for.
