[indent][color=Yellow][b]Class:[/b][/color] [color=Silver]Bard[/color]

[color=Yellow][b]Title(s):[/b][/color] [color=Silver]None[/color]

[color=Yellow][b]Birthplace:[/b][/color] [color=Silver]Ibion, Perten[/color]

[color=Yellow][b]Race:[/b][/color] [color=Silver]Beorc[/color]

[color=Yellow][b]Age:[/b][/color] [color=Silver]Seventeen[/color]

[color=Yellow][b]Inventory:[/b][/color] [color=Silver]Zachary carries his grandfather’s lute with him always, never letting it out of his sight. He also carries a satchel that carries miscellaneous items: whatever spare currency he’s acquire, a journal and pen, tobacco and matches, as well as small non-perishable provisions. Fitted into his hat is his grandfather’s pipe, which he occasionally uses. A wanderer needs not much.[/color]

[color=Yellow][b]Other:[/b][/color] [color=Silver]He’s quite overprotective of both his hat and his lute. Both are gifts to him left by his grandfather to carry on his mission. If someone were to attempt and take these items from him, Zachary would protest greatly. Another thing noteworthy is that, although flirtatious sometimes, Zachary carries little intention of settling down. If something were to spark he would surely fan the flames, but he is not actively seeking a life settling down with a family. He has a mission to carry out before he tends to his innate desires, but as his grandfather always said, “Life can happen at any moment, so enjoy it while it lasts.” Lastly, he speaks in broken tongue sometimes mixing both the international language and the Ibion tongue. This is rare and only occurs when he is speaking without thinking.[/color][/indent]

[indent][color=Silver] As with all Bards comes a kind soul that loves teaching people the joys of music. Wherever Zachary goes, it’s with a smile on his face as he plays the lute like it is an extension of his own self. He is a young, passionate boy dedicated to a life of bringing the beauty of music to life. Zachary approaches any situation he can with a kind and merciful heart, for that is the way his grandfather taught him. However, he is not without negativity. He carries the guilt of leaving his mother and father at a young age everywhere he goes. Zachary only wishes them the best, but he has a mission to revive the Nyrid family name as prestigious musicians. It was a legacy left to him by his grandfather. If his father was not up to the task, then Zachary will gladly step up to the mantle. The guilt he carries does not weigh him down too much. Instead, it ties him back home and gives him a reason to return once his quest is complete. Zachary is a man driven by his passion for music and he intends on making a name for himself.[/color][/indent]

[indent][color=Silver]Zachary was born into a poor household in the city of Perten, a northern city of Ibion. Ages ago his ancestors once played music for any royalty willing to request their talents. Their musical talent was unrivaled for generations, and the way they produced such music almost seemed magical to spectators. Alas, those are only the stories Zachary heard from his grandfather when his parents were out on the fishing boat. Zachary’s father always complained that grandfather should not be teaching his boy such nonsense, but Zachary’s grandfather always just shrugged him off. Nobody had played an instrument in this family since ancient times according to Zachary’s father.
Zachary knew better than this; in fact, he’s heard better. Whenever Zachary’s mother and father took to the fishing boat for work, his grandfather would bring over his lute to play music while telling Zachary of his heritage. The stories were spoken almost lyrically as his grandfather played every day. Zachary’s ancestors did not only play music for royal events. They inspired soldiers in the middle of battle to rally the troops and keep on the fight. His grandfather would always somehow manage to tell a new story every day about the ways of his heritage for years of Zachary’s life. It wasn’t until his teens that Zachary was taught the ways of the lute and the magical sounds he could make.
However, with everything gained something must be lost. One day Zachary’s mother and father came home early in the middle of his lute lessons. Zachary’s father was furious, betrayed by Zachary’s grandfather for going behind his back. It was on that day that Zachary’s grandfather was cast from their household, never to be seen from again. Zachary was upset by his father’s reaction and rebelled in the only way he knew how: playing his grandfather’s lute and the music he was taught. His father soon grew wary of his son’s actions and attempted to destroy the lute with Zachary present. Zachary struck his father and fled from the house that day with lute in hand. 
Zachary wandered further north from then on, earning spare currency from passersby he played for. He was on a personal quest to find his grandfather and thank him for all he taught. The stories he heard took place in the great kingdom of Estala and that was where he traveled. Along the way he somehow acquired a red-breasted grosbeak as a companion. He neither fed nor offered it a place to rest, but it would always find Zachary every time he played his music. And thus the two traveled northward into Estala, in search of a master gone by.[/color][/indent]

[indent][color=Yellow][b]Father: Yakuso Nyrid[/b][/color] - [color=Silver]A self-taught fisherman by trade. He did not buy into Angelo's stories and musical lessons like Zachary did. Yakuso believes that those story are mere children's tales and that the only true meaning in life is the profit earned from hard work and labor.[/color][/indent]

[indent][color=Yellow][b]Mother: Isabella Nyrid[/b][/color] - [color=Silver]A woman whom was taught the trades of fishing by her own family. As much as she tried to participate in raising Zachary, she reluctantly passed that responsibility onto Angelo whom was more avaialbe to watch her child. Isabella wishes that her work wasn't as demanding as it was.[/color][/indent]

[indent][color=Yellow][b]Grandfather: Angelo Nyrid[/b][/color] - [color=Silver]Zachary's sole reason for his passion in music. He was taught how to play by his own grandfather, and used the knowledge and talent he possessed to pass on the mantle to his own grandchild.[/color][/indent]
