Come see Diamon, found abandoned in a field, too ugly for even a mother to love!  Some say he was sired by a demon and ate his way from his mother's womb, others that his father was a goblin, a thing of the fay that raped his mother who committed suicide at the site of the hideous monstrosity she had birthed.  Come one and all- never again will you see such a sight!”Diamon- a name given to a freak, as a thing of darkness, used to frighten the marks and draw in the crowds.  He wasn’t found abandoned, but his mother sold him to the freak show for money to feed the rest of the family.  Better to feed the healthy, strong children than worry about the strange misshapen little one.  His early life was hard.  He had no love, no real caring.  The owner of the freak show taking his wandering menagerie across Europe, often being mistaken for Gypsies or tinker folk, calling his pitch, showing off his bearded lady, fat man, two headed cow, performing mice the world’s strongest man and Diamon, the shrunken, hideous child that caused people to feel at unease in his company.  Soon after his eight birthday, the freak show arrived at a covenant.  The show, open to all, drew in the curious stares of the covenfolk and even of the magi.  And lucky for Diamon it was.  One of the Magi, Simon of House Bonisagus was looking for an apprentice.  He recognized why people felt so uneasy around the child, and in conversation with him, came to realize that a fine intellect was hidden behind the ugliness and deformed body.  So Diamon left the freak show for a better life as an apprentice to Simon.Life as an apprentice is hard for most, but through all the tough times, it was better than being an attraction in a freak show.  He stated taking frequent trips into the nearby village, often carried on the back of Bill, a grog of immense stature (and intellect proportionally reduced in relation to his body.It was on one of these trips he met Niko, a minor noble being fostered in a nearby villa.  They maintained a tight friendship for years, the giant and the dwarf.  An incongruous pair indeed!  His apprenticeship finished and he was offered the chance at going to help through to an old, fading covenant and help bring it out of its decreptitude, surprisingly close to Niko’s homeland.  Since Niko would have to return home soon and start his adult duties, it seemed an opportune time for him to leave.  So, together with Niko and Bill, Diamon has gone to Gormenghast the Novgorod tribunal; his dream – to make it the unsurpassed center of study in Corpus and Muto magic.He has also adopted Francois.  Rescued from a traveling group, much like the one he had been in.  Francois is only three and has not been traumatized by the events at the start of his life. If Diamon has anything to say, he won’t be traumatized at all!  He shows no sign of the gift, but he will probably still have a better life amongst covenfolk used to the strange and unusual.</blockquote>
