Fenten

**Fenten,** also known as **Fenten Dara**, is a Weaver Seer and the only remaining Master of Alchemy, Potions, and Herbology--passed down to him by Merum Dara, the preceding Seer.

## Description

### Appearance

Fenten appears as an almost malnourished Weaver male, standing tall at around 6 foot 2 inches. His black hair appears ratty and messy, but seems to have a slight wave to it. He has dark circles under his eyes against his pale skin from not sleeping much. He has prominent cheekbones, and he has the signature golden eyes of a Weaver. Recently, they have taken a slight glassy look due to his encroaching blindness.

Fenten possesses many scars from his time as a servant, but most notably is the large burn scar from the burning of the brothel on the right side of his neck. He also has a large slash scar down his chest from where Adewala Quaashie tried to murder him. Fenten also carries whip marks on his back from Marieus Patahl.

### Personality

Fenten is prone to outbursts when he disagrees with something, and isn't afraid to speak his mind. He often projects an uncaring attitude over things, but on the inside deeply cares for people he cares about. He doesn't take lightly to people treating him as inferior, and has no issues addressing people of higher status than him by their first names. He is clever, and enjoys poking fun at others. He enjoys discussions of knowledge, and has proved himself as an adept strategist.

## Background

Fenten emerged in the llcas Valley in Archia and was found by a prostitute Mara LeFran. Fenten was taken in by Mara and a few other prostitutes, but Mara was working off debt that her father had accrued from Marieus Patahl, causing Fenten to enter into servitude to earn his keep in the place. The owner of the brothel was the richest man in Archia, Marieus Patahl. Fenten was a servant for the man, and all too frequently a consort. He was considered an expensive good to the boss, due to his leylines marking him as a Weaver. It is unsure where the Weaver blood comes from in his family.

During the brief Civil Wars of Archia, Fenten was around 14 and took the opportunity of the distraction to set fire to the brothel, killing Marieus in the process, and fleeing. He fled west towards where he thought Nome was. Found near a main road towards Nome by Nikolai Odedara, he was brought in front of Mikeal Quaashie due to his leylines.

Fenten was taken to Karamadan for general schooling and taken in as a Novice Druid. He met with Merum Dara and became apprenticed to her to learn the sacred Seer arts of Alchemy, Potions and Herbology.

After the death of Merum Dara, Fenten starts to have stronger visions and hallucinations and leaves the order of Druids, finding them too stiff and boring for his tastes. Fenten turns 20. Due to his sharply declining condition, and fear of losing the arts of herbalism and alchemy, Mikeal breaks tradition and assigns Fenten to teach a new class at Kodras, where he meets the promising student Sasa Nisiki, which Fenten builds a close relationship with.

Around the time of his 22nd birthday, Fenten is discussing with Maria Lydia in a private side room, he hallucinates the burning of the brothel and imagines himself killing Marieus with his own hands, and kills Maria Lydia. He is taken into custody by the Souji Council and imprisoned in the dungeons of Karamadan. Adewala Quaashie tries to murder him in retaliation, leaving Fenten with a scar down his chest. Mikeal Quaashie protected Fenten before he was killed, causing Adewala to leave Nome. He is tentatively allowed to continue teaching at Kodras under heavy guard of Witch Hunters.
