Character Sheet: Arathys Menenon

Background

Arathys Menenon never knew his parents. He was raised as the ward of one Mytharion Amontel, an elven wizard of some small prominence, residing in the tiny sun elf village of E'othyr. Though acting as his father, Mytharion insisted he be referred to as as “Mentor” or “Master”, and often admonished the boy that he was, in fact, no orphan, but rather, he was what Mytharion referred to as a “Promise Child”. His mother, being unable to conceive, had come to him many years prior, seeking a wizard's aid for her condition. Mytharion had agreed, but only on the promise that the woman's first child would belong to him. Arathys was that child.

For much of his youth, Arathys was left in the care of his master's varied summoned servants. His childhood was one spent dancing with devils, playing music with angels, discussing philosophy with demons, and having tea parties with faeries. He also received an education in the basics of arcane magic, though Mytharion was a touch overprotective, and often stressed curiosity be tempered by restraint. That all changed around Arathys' thirteenth birthday, no longer was he left in the care of summoned minions and tutors. Now he would accompany his mentor whenever he went away on business, and assist him in whatever way necessary. His magical education also began in earnest. His days were suddenly filled with hand drills and lessons ranging from spellcraft to arcane theory, world history to languages, his night filled endless practice and candlelit study.

Under the wise tutelage of the sage, Mytharion Amontel, Arathys Menenon grew into a formidable young wizard, specializing in the arts of conjuration, summoning, and teleportation. Ever the loyal student and friend, Arathys stayed on with his master for many years, despite his apprenticeship having been finished. However, lately Arathys has begun feel restless residing in his tiny hamlet home. Not satisfied with the prospect of winding up as some village mystic and not comfortable with idea of becoming a court magician in the hall of some lord, he has instead opted for a life adventure. He knows not what the future might bring, but one thing his certain of is that there is still so much he has left to learn, and he can he can do so best traveling the road as a journeyman mage.
