Role

Chapter 2

By watching his parents succumb to the wiles of money and the
associated lack of wisdom on their part, it left a lasting impact on him,
causing a deep loss of trust in such monetary systems. As it was, he
never really developed the strong orderly upbringing needed for such
business as it was but he did take after his family when it came to
innate magic.

Always the experimenter, he would often try various spells and
although he could clearly feel the pulse of mana within, he never really
mastered any magics. He knew that he didn't want to follow in his
parents footsteps and decided to do otherwise. Body shaping magics
would be his, not these odd elemental ones that they cast and called.
Having felt he had an affinity within the waters, he did several
experiments there, one ending quite dreadfully.

After this poor experiment within the confines of the underground
waters, he found himself floating in the shallows by the edge of an
underdark sea. He awoke to what he thought were voices of other
men and women and a strange repetitive pain across his cheek,
encompassing the entire side of his head. "Eat... food... eat.. meat...
eat.. food.." repeated in his head as the pain streaked across his flesh.
An entire cast of small crabs were picking at his flesh, nibbling as they
picked, bit by bit.
