the one that not only thinks he's good but is good at the same time.When not fighting, Bayar wears his shield across his back, protecting him from the chafing a kit can bring on long marches.  He wears his armour at every opportunity where it is socially acceptable, going to pains to polish dents and scratches out of it.  Bayar prefers sleeveless shirts where he can get away with it, knowing his tattoos and muscles can give him more chances with ladies than he would otherwise get.BACKGROUNDBayar was orphaned at a young age.  He does not remember his parents and has never met another family member.  He was raised in a priory dedicated to Abadar.At the priory school, the clergy quickly realised Bayar was not destined for academia.  While not stupid, he learned better by doing than in a classroom.  Worse, he was large for his age and knew it.  Before long he grew into a classic boy bully, faster than anyone stronger and stronger than anyone faster.At the age of 14 the clergy encouraged Bayar to leave.  He was becoming disruptive to the other boys, and the clergy feared him coming into his full strength as a man.  Cut loose, he drifted into the Imperial Army.  The Army fitted Bayar like a glove.  They took strong boys and made them into killers and men.  His skill with a sword was impressive for an inexperienced warrior.In time, Bayar was sent on campaign and cut his first flesh in earnest.  He found he liked it and was, over the course of several years, transferred into one of the heavy infantry divisions that formed the veteran and elite backbone of the Army -The Screaming GryphonsHere, Bayar won some small renown as a swordsman, claiming his enchanted sword as a prize in a tournament for young enlisted men.  It remains his prized possession to this day.Before long, 5 years had passed and the boy bully had become a man full grown.  No longer content with what the Army offered, as far as he would tell his officers, he resigned.  Bayar spent a good portion of his back pay on purchasing the gear he used in the Army - while his sword was his own the armour and other gear was not and had to be paid for.  Just another catch the recruiters never told him...Cut loose from the biggest part of his life Bayar is drifting, a 19 year old man uncertain what to do with the rest of his life.[/sblock]</blockquote>
