# ***Froma Ge' Cheese*** (HomelessCheese)

## Biography

**HomelessCheese**, full name being Froma Ge' Cheese, is an avid cheese and alcohol artisan, as well as a new writer, having created *The Full and Complete Guide to Tax Evasion*. Froma is a member of Mingrelia, a new city in Yimmu-Audal and a former Riverine citizen which has since fallen to Novus. Froma had helped in the war effort for Riverine, however, it proved useless as the town had been both outnumbered and outgeared. After the war, Froma and his friends seeked refuge in an Escharian city, putting behind his past and aiming to improve as a person. There in the Escharian city, Froma gained an interest in brewery and the art of cheese making. Seeming as he was going to be staying in the city for a while, he had decided to learn how to create beverages and cheese. Froma had found enjoyment in this profession and had decided to start a small buisness, providing to taverns and pubs. During this time, Froma had been exploring more and more of Rathnir and its cultures, occupations and people. This is where his journey in books also began.

While joking around in public chat, an instant thought occured in Froma's mind. He decidedly asked, "What is everybody's opinion on taxes and tax evasion?". Although a very joke-like question, it had later went on to spark the idea of his book, which is now often considered by many librarians - such as TheRussianTanker and Camodavan - as one of the top books on their shelves. Froma is now currently in the works on creating his next book, dubbed as *Daggers and Anchors: Where the Law Ends*, a book that gives an in depth look on how pirates and bandits react and work. The book will use first-hand perspectives from many pirates and bandits themselves, including many famous ones such as: Sxowry, Lintin, Welpish and many others. The current known release date for this book is unknown to the public.

## Lore

Froma woke up in the world of Rathnir. He emerged from a closed barrel, an odor surrounded his body. He felt like a newborn, yet, had looked like an average adult. He looked around in this dungeon-like confinement. The same odor came out of every barrel there, almost as if there was no real air to breathe. Froma, dazed and confused, made his way towards the first door he caught sight of with a limp in his left leg which can still be seen to this very day. He opened the door and was hit with a gush of oxygen. The sun was setting; the sky had a warm pink complexion and the clouds parted slightly to reveal the sun's beauty. Froma only remembers up to this point and plans on finding out the true reasoning on why he emerged from an odor-stenched barrel. He has came up with various speculations and hypotheses, however, he believes the idea that he was made from a mysterious curdle or bacteria, similar to the ones used to make cheese. He says that it explains the stench and why he would have emerged from a barrel. It would also explain his odd interest in the smell of barrels of cheese and why he gets a sense of deja vu whenever he is in contact with such scent, but it also leaves many questions unanswered. How could a sentient being emerge when making cheese? What bacteria or mutated curdle could this be and who developed it? These are all questions still left unanswered, nevertheless, Froma still searches for the answers.

Along with the questions of Froma's past life, he also questions many things about his present and what he has seen. When Froma had last entered the Nether dimension, he had stumbled upon a creature like no other. Froma has no real past experiences with any animals other than the occasional farm animals; never once has he seen a hostile mob. But that day was different. Froma entered the Nether in pursuit of basalt, in need of it to provide for a challenge given to him by Yimmu-Audal. He had entered the Nether twice before in pursuit of the basalt, nothing of interest occuring. When ending his journey and making his way back, he stumbled upon what he calls The Beings. Froma describes The Beings as: "It [the Beings] stood on two hind legs, with skin similar to that of a pig. The being's pink flesh looked burnt and rotten, with its insides revealed, however, unphased by it. Half the being's face was liquid dripping, probably due to the intense heat of the Nether. The being's grunts were the sound of pure pain, yet, eternal rapture. They're most puzzling feature: they weilded swords of pure gold, encased by a layer of magical enchantments that are only seen on weapons and armours of people." Froma had never seen such creatures, and was too frightened to approach or communicate with it. Although they are described similarly to a horrifying threat, Froma claims that they were not immediately hostile towards him, despite the fact that he was in range of an attack. He made his way back, questioning all that he saw, before hearing a screech of a flying, ghost-like creature. The sound was deafening to him, and after it had passed, Froma turned to witness a majestic ball of burning fire curling towards him, defying all laws of gravity that he once thought to understand. The fireball landed infront of Froma, launching him upwards and causing quite a bit of damage to him while also having created a crater upon impact. The giant flying creature continued screeching deafeningly and shooting fireballs at Froma. However, at this point, Froma learnt that hitting the ball of fire before impact causes it to deflect and fly in the opposite direction, giving him an advantage over the creature and giving him enough time to run before any more damage or injuries were caused.
