Biography  (Please make it a decent two paragraphs long. Remember to add server lore, and events that happened to your character so that they don’t contradict history.):
    If there is one thing that I remember my father telling me as a child, it would be “Money before wife”, beyond that, nothing else was important to him or our family. We were merchants, bankers, swindlers, con men, and other various jobs that involved pinching Minas wherever it could be found.
 We lived in a small village in the Deus Proditor region and, this was the way I lived my life, I woke up every morning and walked to my father’s stall at the local market, I helped him count the money, persuade the customers with my young (and at the time rather innocent looking) face. It worked and the business grew as I did.
    I was always popular with the other kids, well, popular isn’t the word to describe it. I was always talking them out of the last bits of their meals, constantly finding a way for them to give me a few Minas whenever I would “trip” and begin to cry. You could call it charisma, I just called it easy money.
    However, as I grew older,  some time martial law was enacted upon the Protectorate of Haelun'or, my ambition grew bigger. I was put to work at the stall while my father stayed home and managed the family's money, we weren’t rich, but well off, we always had meat on the table and I never went without water. Some blamed our success on the considerable amount of refugees in 1511, but as a kid I couldn't even begin to understand what had been going on.
    This, in time, shaped me into a very greedy person, I loved handling money, the feeling of pulling one over on someone and making a profit thrilled me like nothing else. I wasn’t into hunting or sword play like the other boys my age were, I was interested in growing my family’s wealth, more specifically my own. However, I never stopped with conning travelers or my friends.
    My father had come down with an illness that caused him to go into a delirium. He rambled like a senile old man for weeks, months, at first we thought it would pass. I called the physicians, the apothecary, only one found what the disease was and only one had the cure to his ailment.
    However, initially, I hesitated. My father had avasted a lot of wealth, a lot that I could take. He had no other heirs and of course the money wouldn’t go to my mother. I decided I wanted his money, so I convinced the village head that he had finally gone insane and was no longer fiscally responsible enough to keep track of his own funds.
    One thing led to another and a few forged signatures later I was entitled to our family's wealth. However, I later found out my mother had gone behind my back and alerted the village head of my treachery. We took family matters like this very seriously, I was immediately exiled, handed three days worth water, two of food, and thrown into the desert.
    It was during the following two days that I took a long hard look at my life, I had wasted most of it. I had screwed over everyone I had ever known for the sake of a bit of extra coin. I decided it was time to change things, a Rassid caravan picked me up and I’ve been travelling ever since as a humble merchant in search of making my fortune in a more legitimate way.
Personality Traits: Thrifty, cunning, and always a sucker for a good bargain. 
Ambitions: To get money, essentially, although it could be extended to “obtaining power”. It’s a harsh world, and he wants to live as comfortably as possible.
Strengths/Talents: A good haggler, persuasive, good at counting money, and somewhat agile when not impeded by any form of fancy clothing. 
Weaknesses/Inabilities: Not particularly strong, a competent swordsman if his opponent was drunk, and one to shy away from combat and avoid conflict.

Appearance (List the extra details of your characters appearance, IE; height & weight): A young looking Rassid with moca brown skin. He wears tattered, old looking garments that are probably in need of a replacement, his eyes are a deep dark brown, as is his hair. His face is mostly hidden by cloth that would normally protect him from sand, however, under the cloth is a rough, weather beaten face.
