Bio: Berthellemy was an orphan for most of his early life, and was adopted by a church multiple towns away from where he was born. They were a travelling group, that found him on their way home. One of the priests had taken a liking to the boy, and had decided to give him a life that would be better then that of one raised on the streets. Berthellemy was quite happy to have someone choose him and want to help him, so he quickly took a liking back to the priest. He was raised as one of the church's own, even though he didn't always follow their beliefs and understand why they did what they did.
Berthellemy wasn't proficient with magic, but was ecstatic to know he could be part of the magic clergy if he was willing to study. Not only was he willing to study, he was also willing to go the extra-mile and could usually be found pestering some of the experienced members about wanting to help them out and keep them in practice. It took some time, but eventually Berthellemy was able to rise through the ranks and learn his stuff. Although some of his brethren were not all that excited in his willingness to study combative magics, he believed he was doing what he thought was necessary. One firm belief he had that separated him from the others, was that violence is sometimes the only solution.
As he continued to grow, he eventually began to work directly under the man who had raised him. Together, they did their best to help out those who were suffering or needed assistance. Berthellemy wasn't as always as smooth or wise as his elder, but he certainly did impact lives. However this would all eventually come to an end when the priest was met by a group of survivors who hailed from near Ember Peaks. He heard their tales, and gathered a few other members of the clergy and went to find out what truly was causing these attacks. They were never to return, only ashes and molten metal were left of the good men.
It was at this time that the city council began to offer rewards to those who would stop the beast. Berthellemy went to join those who wanted the reward, hoping to claim a portion of itself, as well as for other reasons. Part of it was the want to help those who suffer because of the beast, another to gather funds for his people, and the third was revenge, something he is not ashamed to admit.
