Title: CD - Xerxes Scriptoris
Post by: SperoFuturum on Apr 19, 2025, 06:54 PM
MC Username: SperoFuturum

Name: Xerxes Scriptoris

Traits and Political Views:
-Cajra worshipper, follower of Poseitune
-Advocates for a democratic government with members chosen based on marine skill and then voted on by the public
-Young, ambitious adult
-Callous hands from long hours in the smithy
-Well-read academic, but lacking in agility and physical strength

Background:
Born in the mountains of Vidinia, Xerxes' father was a historian while his mother was a cartographer. As a result, Xerxes spent most of his childhood reading and looking at maps.
However, when Xerxes' parents were killed by bandits, he fled with other refugees from his village to a town outside of Sinos, where he set up a smithy and artisan shop by a dockyard. Over time, he worked his way into a position of modest wealth and began to look for ways to find his parent's lost book collection, a vast library of knowledge destroyed in the bandit attack. He continues to run his shop and search for the library to this day.

APPROVED with notes. Please keep in mind that support for democracy is at an all-time low in Carpesia, and you won't be safe being an activist for democracy in this realm dominated by nobles and merchants, but you can hold these beliefs privately until it becomes more popular. Also, Sinos may currently be full of players, so you may have to join the Crownlands, which is pretty close by. If all else fails, you can convert to Solarism and join Nechar in Tarbor.
