Matthen Mark-Hazid the Master of Song
DescriptionA pale man is here, looking like a scarecrow. He is tall, and only a little menacing. In his skinny limbs you can see the strength of years, and yet also the bigor of youth. His hair is straight, coal black, and cropped short. His eyes are animate and intelligent, a pale blue the color of the sky through a wisp of cloud, strangely contrasting his dark appearance. Long fingers and strong hands bear slightly faded black tattoos. On his left hand is the most elaborate design, with swirls like burnt vines arcing from between his fingers and up his arm. Within the whorls of the vine are carefully crafted leters, spelling the words that have conveniently been broken by scars.

RoleChapter 7 Origins, part 2: Khark Hazyn Added Wed Jun 9 17:13:13 2004 at level 22:Origins, part 2: Khark Hazyn Matthen's fellow gang members were shrewd businessmen, despite their youth. They were always dealing in everything from the mundane to the arcane. So naturally, they crossed path with many interesting people. There are a few who they wish they hadn't met. Khark Hazyn they wished never existed.
Khark Hazyn was the name the mage gave them He was cloaked entirely in black, but they could hear his armor clink beneath it. He bought from them several ptions. When they named a priec he didn't like, he beat them until they named a more suitable price. Despite this abuse, Khark Hazyn was very profitable for the gang. But he sought for himself a different kind of profit.
After several dealings with the gang, Khark Hazyn offered them one final deal. They would become his eyes, ears, knives, and toys in Hamsah Mu'Tazz. In exchange, he would pay them, all of them, in food and monies. They accepted, and Matthen's first Hell began.
The first thing they knew as pain. The second was the tattoos on their a arms. The third was the Night, in all its overwhelming power, all its ominous precepts. Theyt knew exactly what would happen when the Eternal Night came. They served the Night, they served Khark Hazyn. If they strayed from this, they were rewarded with pain. Tey did what Khark Hazyn told them to. Any other time they were free to do as they wished. But pain was their teacher if they did otherwise.
Eventaully Khark Hazyn faded away. Perhaps he forgot about his toys, or tossed them iaside in favor of a new project, or a bettertoy. But the gang never forgot him. They never forgot the horrors Khark Hazyn had brought with him.

RoleChapter 6 Discovering Beauty Added Wed Jun 9 17:22:32 2004 at level 22:After Matthen left Hamsah Mu'Tazz and began exploring, he knew one thing: The Etyernal Night was coming. Everything in life only served as a reminder or a distraction of that fact. He trundld through life a long time like that, directionless and powerless against the ominous approach of the Night. Then he discovered a young woman, about his age. They drank together in Darsylon. It was then that his eyes were oopened ever so slightly to what he later knew to be Beauty.
Over the next few years, he would spend time in the Inn, learning philosophies and religions, devouring this knowledge like a starving lion. He learned of Art, and of Knowledge, and suddenly.... he knew Beauty . Before the Night was everything. When Matthen discovered Beauty, it was a jolt. It was the single most profound moment of his life. The darkness was lifted and he saw something beyond it, something beyond the Night. Something that pierced through the only thing he knew. And he wanted more.
He knew what he had seen in the wood in Hamsah, he knew what he saw in the woman of Darsylon. The moreBeauty he saw, the less the approach of the Night bothered him, the less it mattered. Until eventually, hortly after his induction into the Heralds of the Eternal Star as a decorateor, it disappeared. So Matthen erased from his body all reminders of Khark Hazyn. Taking a knife, he stripped his tattoo.

RoleChapter 5 Matthen and Beauty Added Wed Jun 9 17:27:40 2004 at level 22:Matthen Mark-Hazid collapsed in the sand, watching flies eat at the uinidentifiable corpse next to him. A symbol of the cycle of life, out here, wandering amongst the blowing sands of the desert. Beautiful
Beauty can e found everywhere. Everything is symbolic for everyone in their own minds, it's a metter of what it symbolzies. Some things symbolize different things for different people. Regardless of the symbol, art is the manipulation of these symbols to produce a larger vision. Art is the manipulation of beauty, to produce a larger symbol. Beauty is everywhere. Even the absence of beauty is beautiful in its symbolism.
Matthen, in the past, was not avidly religions. He sought to learn different philosophies, different religions to gain perspective on his own personal thoughts. He never had his own personal religion. However, in the last few years he has not only seen Beauty, but hje has evolved from a simple carpenter of dark origins to what he sought to become when he discovered Beauty: An artist.

RoleChapter 3 Matthen and the Empire Added Sun Jul 4 19:18:15 2004 at level 33:Matthen has spent the latest portion of his life dealing with the Imperials as best he possibly can. He views them as annoyances, inconveniences on the road. The only time they are anything more that is when they threaten the Inn and her patrons. He will occasionally go with a party to slay a pair of Centurions, especially when they are parked outside of the Inn, but he does not go out of his way to. After writing a missive for Odrirg, Matthen found himself marked for death. In a missive to the Empire, he stated this: I wrote that missive because it is my responsibility as a bard and a Herald. As such, it is my responsibility to Thera to deliver knowledge and ideas, regardless of the message, its source, or how I feel about it. Matthen was initially outraged that he was being condemned for words hat weren't his, but soon decided just to ignore it. He has yet to see the effects of Lord Khasotholas's death mark.

RoleChapter 1 Matthen and the "Super-Herald" Added Sun Jul 4 19:40:14 2004 at level 33:Matthen had ambitions for the position of High Herald. He was unsure of how qualified he was for this, but Esfergref's appointment while Matthen was still overly young squelched Matthen's ambitions in that arena. He still searches for more, however, some way to expand his abilities and usefulness as a Herald. Because of this, something Thigodus hinted at has sparked his curiosity. One evening, Matthen tromped into the Lyceum to read a bedtime story when Thigodus hurried him out. Matthen demanded, half-jokingly, to know why he was being chucked from the Lyceum. Later, Thigodus told Matthen very little of his suspicious stay in the Lyceum, about "the fate of the world" resting in ol' Thiggo's hands and being a "super-hero" who helped keep people from becoming "zombies". Matthen interpreted this as Thigodus being a sort of Super-Herald, and perhaps he was speaking with something in the Lyceum. Thigodus's casually cryptic avoidance of the topic has peaked Matthen's curiosity. Matthen is unsure of the truth behind Thigodus's words, as Thigodus has always been an oddball, and a master bluff. Matthen doesn't believe Thigodus would lie to his friend outright, however, and is taking what little clues Thigodus gave him to heart. Matthen is burning to know what Thigodus has found, perhaps a new level of philosophy or Heraldry, and is starving to find out what it is.
