Message: <blockquote data-quote="Douane" data-source="post: 4067613" data-attributes="member: 157">Ash Naperro, Human Warlock:Ash Naperro is the wayward son of Professor Arkadius Naperro, the Primus of Linguistics at the Wroat campus. He might also have been his prodigal son had the 12-year-old not stood before his door five years ago, reminding the Professor of a field study he had been part of 13 winters ago and a certain druidess he had "met" back then.Since that fateful day Professor Naperro has tried to become the father he never wanted to be and Ash ... has enjoyed his new life to the the fullest. Both father and son are not totally clear on why his mother sent him away so suddenly, but Ash at least doesn't really care as he found the city life much more to his liking than a lonely hut in the woods and a severe taskmaster in form of his mother. Being the son of a staff member has afforded him some extra liberties around the campus and Ash has shamelessly exploited them all - his attempts to organize a "recreative chemical" distribution or to cut in on the antiquities trade have not been well received by the powers that, however. So far his father has managed to shield him from the repercussions of his actions but the Professor's patience grows thinner every day. Since assuming fatherhood was always more a matter of responsibility than of parental love for Arkadius Naperro, he is slowly coming to the conclusion that Ash, now being an adult, has to start living on his own feet. In fact, little does Ash know that the Professor has considered for some time now kicking him out once a suitable opportunity arises.Ash's unusual abilities have been put down to his mother's heritage by the Professor as he can not (or doesn't want to) recall any similar incidents in his own family line. Ash himself isn't particularly interested where his powers come, he has accepted them as a natural part of his very being - even if others don't - and wastes no thoughts on their origin - in fact, after witnessing some of the sights his mothers had shown him he doesn't even find them that strange. At the same time this also lead to him not improving substantially on his powers despite having them throughout most of his youth as he never tried to push them to their limits and beyond in order to learn their full extent, but simply used them for their utility value.Personality-wise Ash is something of a restless soul. His life over the past few years has been fun and really made up for the harsh circumstances of his childhood, but lately something seems to be missing. Left with the feeling of already having done everything there is to do at the University, Ash has started to attend lectures a bit more earnestly, for once without the sole intention of picking up female students or to plan some sort of mischief. Nevertheless, actually taking that final step and leave his present life behind has put been put off more than once by him for Ash likes to have a certain degree of creature comforts around and is lazy to boot.An eternal optimist to the core, his constant cheerfulness has been known to grate on the nerves of those of different temperaments (aided by a wisecrack here and there). Always quick to laugh, Ash refuses to let anything get him down for long. The one notable exception to all this is his name which he is kind of sensitive about: Having resisted his father's repeated attempts to change it into a "proper" Naperro name, ie. "Arkadius II.",  there is nothing that can enrage him more than having someone draw the false connection that, based on his name and his mother being a druid, they have to be pretty devoted Ashbounds.Despite being rather charismatic and having developed notable social skills, Ash has no overt desire to be a leader and stand in the center of attention, unless it's temporary measure and good for a laugh or two.Class Advancement: Pure Warlock</blockquote>
