Traveling around the land, meeting new people, having adventures and sharing stories. He is a friendly young man, mature and fun loving, inquisitive and outgoing, always looking for new things to try and interesting new things to learn. Some might say his stubborn nature and relentless enthusiasm and upbeat personality are annoying but he wears them with pride. History: Born on the outskirts of the Sech Empire's territory Kar's father was a seasoned hunter and warrior and his mother was a simple merchant, after a thorough and detailed education the time for Kar to decide his own career came. Against the wishes of his father the 16 year old set out to travel the land as a bard, learning new songs and musical styles as he went from place to place as well as occasionally trading items to make up any money he needed. The idyllic lifestyle suited him and his return visits home grew scarcer and scarcer until he ceased them all together and instead started using mail to communicate with his friends and family back home. Over the years Kar picked a number of different jobs from working part time jobs in various settlements, farming, fishing and waitering being among them. After hearing rumours of a more isolated and mysterious city he set out to find Ekrem with a bag full of particularly rare items, hoping he'd be able to stay there a while.
