A more complete character description and backstory for my character. Let me know if there’s anything I need to change/reconsider!
Oketharos Arroway is a human monk from the temple to Torm called the House of the Hand in the Vast. He was taught monk traditions and fighting techniques here. Oketharos was dropped off at this temple as a child by his parents in hopes of hiding him. His family has been hunted for generations by a mysterious cult. He knows one of his ancestors faught a great evil many years ago, and even though they succeeded, all those in their party were cursed, and marked for death by the followers of this evil entity. As such, Oketharos never reveals his full name, going by many aliases, the current one is Quincy Pompas. He is a master of faking accents in order to help disguise him. At the temple, one of his cleric overseers received a vision of an object that would help remove the curse/marking on his family’s bloodline. He did not get a description of the item, but rather a location, the Far Reach. That same night, the temple was attacked by cloaked figures, they were especially focused on Oketharos, and to save the other members of the temple, he fled and began heading towards Far Reach. But not before one of his favored martial teachers was cut down in front of him. Once he finds this object, he wishes to find the rest of his family and unmark them as well, but he knows not where his family resides as they are all in hiding too.
Oketharos is a human man of average height. He has light brown skin, deep brown eyes, and super short black hair. His arms and the left shoulder feature deep burn scars from the attack on the temple, but he keeps them wrapped up in white bandages to keep them hidden. He wears the usual monk baggy pants, boots, and vest in shades of brown and silver.
Oketharos is a kind and calm person. He is serene often even in the most harrowing situations. He harbors great empathy for those in peril, suffering, and in hiding. He believes that some things must remain secretive, so he does not pry for unnecessary information often. Everyone’s secrets are theirs to keep. Family and close friends are the most important thing to him, and he will risk himself to save those most close to him.
