He almost always wears well-oiled chainmail over a padded tunic, with a longsword belted at his waist.&nbsp; Background: A note on Monemvassian names:&nbsp; Certain old families in Monemvassia still give their children three names according to the old tradition:&nbsp; The praenomen, nomen, and cognomen.&nbsp; Thus, Gaius Valerius Corvinus.&nbsp; The praenomen is a personal name, used mostly by immediate family and close personal friends.&nbsp; The nomen refers to the clan to which your family belongs, and the cognomen is a descriptive name (Corvinus means &quot;crow-like&quot;) that is almost always inherited from one's father.&nbsp; There is an intricate etiquette involved in how the three names are used in conversation, depending on the relative status of the speaker and the person being named, but sadly, this naming tradition is no longer common in Monemvassia, and those who follow it simply instruct outsiders to call them by their cognomen.&nbsp; (OOC:&nbsp; this naming tradition is based on that of Republican Rome, a summary of which can be found <a href="http://www.novaroma.org/wiki/Choosing_a_Roman_name" target="_blank">here</a>.)Backstory:&nbsp; The Valerius clan were among the first human families coming to Monemvassia with Nolan Jara when he founded the kingdom.&nbsp; Through a series of mishaps involving poor business decisions, social scandals, and sheer bad luck, the clan's fortunes fell quickly, and by the time Gaius Corvinus was born, the name was no longer known in Monemvassia except by historians.&nbsp; But the members of the clan's families never forgot their origins, and Gaius Corvinus was brought up to feel a founder's pride toward the city of Monemvassia as well as a strong sense of duty to it.&nbsp; When he came of age, he joined the Monemvassia Guard, hoping to fight pirates and goblins in defense of the city.&nbsp; Instead, he found that being in the Guard consisted mostly of taking bribes, harassing foreign merchants, and winking at the thieves' guild, rather than honest work.&nbsp; His sense of duty kept him in the Guard anyway, and his talents were sufficient to raise him to the rank of sergeant.&nbsp; One day, however, he caught a fellow guard taking money to look the other way while a woman was being beaten to death.&nbsp; Corvinus drove away the woman's attackers and beat the other guard within an inch of his life.&nbsp; Because he was able to provide incontrovertible evidence of the other guard's guilt, Corvinus escaped without official punishment, but the incident had made him a number of enemies in the Guard, some of them in high places.&nbsp; It became clear to Corvinus that he was no longer welcome in the guard, so he retired from the guard and left Monemvassia, hoping that other parts of the world would offer him honest work, and secretly hoping one day to return and clean up the Guard.&nbsp; [sblock=Adventuring history][sblock=Undine the Sea]Corvinus began his adventuring career by attending a large party, at which it was announced that dire events were taking place:&nbsp; an undead dragon was preparing to escape its bonds and terrorize the land!&nbsp; Nearly all the attendees of the crowded party rode phantom steeds in a whirlwind trip to the Academy of the Chromatic Order, where a council was convened.&nbsp; With the sole disagreement of the delegation from the elves of Rivenblight, the Council agrees to send seven adventuring parties after the seven shards of the ward binding the undead dragon.&nbsp; Corvinus finds himself attached to the group chasing the Undine shard, thought to be guarded by the merfolk of Amalthea, an undersea city.&nbsp; In order to be able to operate undersea, the party decides to seek the aid of the priestesses of Galatea at her High Temple.&nbsp; They sail there aboard the Sea Dog, a fast but somewhat expensive vessel.&nbsp; Corvinus has to borrow fare from Babette.&nbsp; When they arrive at the temple, things turn ugly.&nbsp; The priestesses attack without provocation, and the high priestess of Galatea quickly subdues the party with an extremely powerful spell before Corvinus even has time to draw his sword.&nbsp; It turns out that the representatives of Rivenblight, who opposed the quest to regain the shards, have reached the temple first, and convinced the gullible priestesses that the party mean to defile some sacred shrine of the water goddess.&nbsp; Corvinus, shamed by his failure even to draw his sword before being subdued and angered by the credulity of the priestesses, has sharp words for them.&nbsp; Despite the fact that the error is soon corrected, he manages to make a number of enemies among the servants of the goddess with his accusations.The Galateans claim they do not have the ritual ingredients needed to send the party safely to Amalthea, so they send them instead to the elemental plane of water with instructions to seek the ingredients at the City of Brass.&nbsp; The priestesses bungle it as usual, though, and the party requires the assistance of a friendly traveller to reach the city safely.&nbsp; Alas, the priestesses instructions turn out to be wrong, too, and after a long and fruitless search, the ingredients are simply nowhere to be found.&nbsp; Exhausted, disgruntled and very poor, Corvinus eventually makes his way back to the Red Dragon Inn with little besides the armor on his back to show for his efforts.
