Biography (Please make this at least 2 paragraphs long. This must include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):Ghun was born in the Al'Khazar in 1322. Being the son of Madelyn and Leon Gottfried, Ghun was quite the charmer. In his early age he discover the true power of words by using persuasion. When his father made Ghun head out when he turned 10 to become a huntsman, Ghun got into his father's mind with a serious of words. His mother was astonished at this, for Leon was a wise man. He studied the spoken language and was able to sweet talk any girl into his will. Ghun, at age 16, was able to finish school early due to his intellect. A recent psychologist reported that: "Ghun has the knowledge of high-wizard." In a few months after his birthday, Al'Khazar was under siege by the Undead forces. The undead ran rabid through the town and started their conquest. On that fateful night, three undead warriors entered the home of the Gottfrieds. They busted the door wide open while Leon tried to bar the door shut. Leon was slung to the floor in front of Ghun and Madelyn. Standing on top of Leon, one of the warriors grabbed the strands of hair of Leon and slices his throat. The undead warriors stood in the doorway bloating about Leon's death in front of his family. This infuriated Ghun to be brink of desolation. Ghun quickly jumps up from the floor beside his mom, and taunts the undead. The other two undead that stood there and watched lunges towards Ghun. One takes their sword and tries to jab it into Ghun's chest, but at the last second Ghun strafes to the left and trips the undead. The warrior leads on the floor face-down, beside Madelyn. Madelyn quickly draws a dagger from under her cloth and stabs it in the warriors head... perishing him. The other attacker thrusts its sword into Ghun but misses. Ghun takes his backhand and smacks the blade up into the air. The sword flips into the air and lands right into the head of the attacker. In a state of panic, the last undead warrior takes his chance. He pulls out his scepter and casts lighting from it. The lighting strikes Madelyn in the chest... electrocuting her to sudden death. Seeing both of his parents die in front of him, Ghun gathers one of the swords from a corpse and throws it like a javelin into the undead's skull, killing him. Ghun rushes over toward his dead father and finds Amoré, a sword smelted in the strongest diamond. He then run over toward his dying mother and comforts her. Her last dying breathe was "Ghun, I love you... please... flee...". Ghun busts out into tears. After a moment of sadness, Ghun is filled with hate. He shuts her eyelids.
After the horrid attack on his home, Ghun runs out into Al'Khazar to see the massacre. He fled through the streets and out the gate seeking safety. Finding shelter in different villages, Ghun had tremendous amount of fear. When he entered Whisper Isles he met a female merchant. The merchant wrote in her diary his appearance...
Dear Diary,
Just met a young man tonight. He had dirt all over his face and he seemed like he was crying for years! He was tumbling over words, but I can tell he was a sweetheart. He looked at me and told me that Al'Khazar was attacked by the undead?! If this was true then a hell has broke lose... literally haha.!He had some interesting clothes on him though. He wore a suit of green, that match his eyes! I never seen such green eyes in my life. He had a top hat on, and he wore some amazing shades. The tint of the shades were purple. I did let him sleep in my house though. I could use a little bit of company and he is out like a light!
During the war, Ghun fought long and hard. He promised his family that will slay all Undead that is in his path for the power of Amoré.

Ghun marches towards the two men. One looked like a giant compared to the other. He reaches up the taller one and taps his shoulder.
"Hey fellas."
The monstrous man turned slowly and glared Ghun in the eyes."What do ye want?"
"I had a question. Why are you trying to steal from him, eh? He is a halfling. A small one that. In other words he wouldn't carry much at all! SO Imma make it clear to ya. Leave him alone and carry with your business."
The scrawny fellow looked to his boss."Hey, Gilbert. I think we gots us a gusty boy 'ere."
"Yeah, too gutsy." The giant said. "We don't want to cause trouble, though. We are already in deep tides with the queen." The giant takes the scrawny one and they walk away.
Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response?"Ah hello there mate. I was wondering if you had any information on where I can mine out some of this 'red dust', if you know what I mean?"
"Ooo, ye mean that supernatural dust. Yeh, I know a spot. Take a gander at this map. It will lead you in that direction! 40 minas, fella."
"Ah, okay old man." Ghun hands out 40 minas from his pack. "Also where is the soup kitchen. I am quite starved!"
Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?:
"Look at this shiny equipment!" Ghun reaches into the chest and takes out the iron bars, leaving the golden sword behind. "I wouldn't want anyone to steal my family's sword."
Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you you in the common tongue, how do you respond?
Ghun walks up to the guard standing about 6 feet high.
"Greetings and well met, friend. My name is Ghun. I am quite hungry. May I have directions to your inn?"
"Aye, sir. You look fairly bony. Take this path up that way. They will be more than willing to feed ya!"
Ghun rushes off to the inn.
You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?:
It is midnight. The sounds of a horn is heard. "Fellow countrymen. We are in need of help. There is a small band of bandits outside of our walls! They are stopping our wagons to enter the town. Rush to arms, every man!"
Ghun walks up to the leader. "Hey, sir. I would like to join you in this battle. I have a few techniques that will be proven quite useful."
"Aye, I like your bravery, man. Follow my lead!"
The town guard and Ghun head out on the trail to the north. A few feet from the town sits the bandit encampment. Ghun sneaks through the brushes with the guards. Looking at the sleeping bandits, the heroes jump into action. Each guard takes their sword and slice the necks of the bandits. Ghun, in the midst of things, enters the head bandits tent. There he sees a locked chest and the bandit leader in his cot. Ghun slithers over to the cot and slices the bandit's throat with Amoré. He snatches the keys to the chest and takes the loot.
