Fiction:The Firmament/Earath Mileoveraz

"Young Earath carries a certain charm wherever he goes and his attitude reflects greatly on everyone he meets, though some would say to take caution of him during a fight; he wields that heavy greatsword of his as if it was an extension of his own body and when it is time to spill blood, mercy is the first thing he throws off the table."

Earath Mileoveraz is a lizardfolk warrior and mercenary hailing from the desert land of Merovaren. An adventurer at heart, he takes joy in exploring the land and helping the less fortunate whenever possible. Fighting with a greatsword in hand, he is a competent fighter and a good friend to those who befriend him.

History
Earath is the tenth child of the Mileoveraz clan, who hold titles of minor nobility in the lizardfolk capital of Sohitaria. He spent much of his young age around his older siblings, many of them members of the military of the Dynasty of the Sands, and he often sparred with them in a casual manner, eventually leading him to earn a genuine interest in joining it as he became of age. Becoming a lieutenant of his elder brother Velthor, Earath remained on duty for three years until he grew increasingly frustrated; he found military life more restricting than he thought, and asked Velthor to help him leave it. Though it displeased the elder sibling greatly, he eventually relented after he realized it would be for the best; it took much to convince the notoriously commanding general Alerad Jurrgha to allow Earath to leave without shaming them both, but he eventually managed it. In exchange, Earath would have to mark his chest with a sigil which would signify the debt he owned Velthor.

As he looked for something else to do, he would eventually stumble into an adventurer's guild, where he accepted taking a job to take down a bandit gang terrorizing the farmlands near the southern walls of Sohitaria alongside a high elf named Lyra Shinerun. The two worked together and brought the bandits to justice, with Earath discovering a new purpose in life after he had the farmers' child hug him in appreciation for his help. Accompanied by Lyra, who he befriended along the way, Earath set off to become an adventurer and mercenary, aiding the innocent at every chance while looking for the means to debt with his elder brother Velthor.

Features
Earath is a lizardfolk of fairly standard appearance. He is average-sized for a member of his race and has light yellow scales, similar to those of his father. A number of small scars can be spotted near his face and chest at close observation, from his many battles against monsters and criminals. He often wears a suit of chain mail under his clothes, and his weapon of choice is a two-handed greatsword.

Earath is often described as being a gentleman, being quite courteous and polite to others, while rarely losing his head over worries. He enjoys the thrill of adventure and combat, however, and finds himself more content when out exploring and when facing dangerous situations. Not one to sit idly to a threat, he acts quickly and with strategy in mind, usually acting as a voice of reason for whatever group he is travelling with.
