Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):
Byron grew up as the son of a wealthy Oren merchant. His mother had died during his birth, leaving Byron to grow up with his Father and Grandfather. When Byron had reached age nine, his Father immediately began to have him work at his stall. While his Grandfather believed that he should be sent to school and be educated, Byron's Father instead prioritized his son's work over education. Byron never learned much of the history of the world, the only education being the small things his Grandfather taught him when his Father didn't make him work. At age twelve, Byron's Grandfather began telling him stories of heroes and fantastic adventures. Byron's dream was forever implanted in his head when her first heard one of those stories. He wanted to become an adventurer.
At age seventeen, Byron's Grandfather died. His Father was planning to move on to another city to sell his wares, and asked Byron if would like that. Byron refused. He kindly told his Father that although he appreciated the work he had given him, he wanted to pursue his life-long dream now. His Father, knowing that Byron should be treated as a man, understood.
Byron is now twenty-two years of age, a novice adventurer who is beginning to make his way in the world. He has set out to explore the far reaches of the world and beyond, hoping to meet many friends along the way.

Your character walks up to a shop in the middle of Al'Khazar. "Hello, my good sir!" says the shop owner. "What may I help you with today?" How does your character answer?: He would probably run away seeing as Al'Khazar is inhabited by the undead, which is something Byron is not particularly fond of. However, if this were any other store in any other place, he'd give a nod and a polite "Good day to you." before browsing the merchant's wares and purchasing whatever he thinks would be good for adventuring.
