Background:
First son of the Pharn family, a noble house of medium importance in Sshindylryn, miles beneath the King's Forest of Cormyr, Pharaxes showed quite early the innate aptitude to make a great assassin. So when he became of age he started studying the art of stealth with Alak Morieth. A few years later, he was joined in his study of the art by his brother Pharaun, his blatant lack of ability compared to his older brother and his position of second son quickly made him jealous of Pharaxes.

However Pharaun had devised a plan to get rid of him and one night as everyone was asleep, he snuck out of his room and into Pharaxes's, took his ceremonial dagger wich was displayed on his desk and left. But as he exited the door, he made a bit of noise that woke Pharaxes up. After adjusting his eyes to the darkness of the room he notice almost instantly the missing of his dagger, the sound of the courtyard door closing drawn him to the window just in time to see a cloaked shadow exit the scene. Getting dressed in a hurry, he discretly got out too and tracked the shadow to his mentors house. Peeking trough the window he saw the man stab his mentor to death with his ceremonial dagger. For a fraction of second the hood of the cloak went out of place, just long enough for Paraxes to recognise his brother. He knew that when the authority would find the body with his dagger imbeded deep in the chest they wouldn't have any doubt about the identity of the killer.

His survival instinct took over as he ran back to his room grab his gear and fled trough tunnels that were barely used anymore. Taking turns without even paying attention to the direction he was going, he stumbled upon a strange cave that didn't seemed to be of natural formation. At the edge of that cave was a strange arch of stone sculpted in the wall, fortunatly for Paraxes he had seen some of this kind of arch in the city, it was a portal. He started studying the portal to find how to activate it. He wouldn't be able to tell how long it took him, probably hours, but as he found the activation sequence he heard the sound of boots running in the caves quite some distance behind him. He had no time to spare, he activated the portal as he jumped trough it he heard a big explosion and fainted leaving the cave baren as the portal crumbled to dust.

When he came to, Pharaxes was alone in a small room, the first thing he did was to go to thedoor wich was stragely locked from the inside. Feeling that his life was not in danger at the moment he took the time to asses his situation. Since his family name was known a bit around the Underdark he decided to change for his old mentor's, which was less known. Then he searched the room for anyting usefull, there was a few bookcase an old alchemy lab a chest and some sort of arcane lab but no trace of any portal, the amount of dust gathered on everything was a good sign that no one had used this place in ages. Most of the content of the bookcases and the lab were such in a bad stade that they would not be worth anything but he manage to salvage two strange curved knife, a black thick silk scarf and a set of lockpicks in th chest. He made himself a mask using the scarf put the knives in his backpack and stashed the kit in his belt pouch.

Unlocking the door as silently as the old rusted mechanism allowed it, he peeked oustide into a dark alley that, from the sound of a crowd, was near a market. Leaving the house, he made his way towards the crowd to find himself on the ,marketplace of a town he never heard of before. After gathering some information he learned that he was in Sshamath.
