[QUOTE="Acid_crash, post: 1659442, member: 16278"] Since I'm playing a monk, my background will be more simpler than most I think, but here goes something... I wasn't born in Areastos as I was lead to believe while growing up in the monastary, but was actually born on the border of Shadowen. I never knew my birth parents because soon after I was born, my family got attacked and I was kidnapped and taken to a witch. The witch wanted me because I was born with a very strange birth-mark on my right shoulder under a full moon, and she thought I was an omen to something much bigger. Fortunately, she never got the chance to find out because the goblins that were taking me to her got slaughtered in an attack and I was taken to a monastary of Aeos in Kythraen. ----the above my character has no knowledge of--- From the monastary, I was trained in the Order of the Gold Star. When I was ten the masters of the order had heard reports of a possible attack against the monastary, and decided it best to send some of the younger students to another monastary, this one in Araestos. Upon arrival, I continued my training without hesitation, and soon met a young twelve year old cleric who also was a believer in Aeos, albeit not of the monkish kind. They became good friends, and have been friends since. From time to time I get a strange feeling that something is watching for me, but I don't know what that may be. It could be a minor paranoia, or something more. I also don't understand how I came to be empowered with the Touch of Golden Ice, but since the strange power has surfaced, my skin has changed to a goldish tint, and I want to seek out how this has happened. I believe it has something to do with the Vow I have sworn, but I'm not too sure. is this good? [/QUOTE]
