Sumak ibn Jamir al Tareeqi
First Name: Sumak

Appearance:
Race: Human [Calish ite]

Height 6'1
Build: Broad, Muscular, Battle-scarred.
Eyes: Brown

Personality Profile:
General Health: This man appears healthy and fit, though seemingly by simple constitution than a regime of exercise. His life-style is active and profession demanding great physical exertion - which likely explains his general good shape, though if one thing were to be suffering slightly it would be his liver, and occasionally the map of scars bore on his flesh expands in wake of his latest 'job'.
Deity: Bhaelros (Talos)
Initial Alignment: CN
Profession: A proprietor of liberal and selective violence, with few questions asked. Though he is not above forging a weapon if coin demands.
Base Class & Proposed Development: This man's skills would equate him to be a fighter, though you should assume his classes reflect the life of a man who was formally a bodyguard and sell-sword.
Habits/Hobbies: Sumak appears to always wear a small locket, silver and mundane by nature, it clearly has a great sentimental value to him. His major "hobby" is in fact his habit. Which is getting absolutely "rat-arsed" in the nearest Inn, before sobering up and finding word to pay for the next round of self inflicted alcohol poisoning.
Languages: Alzhedo/Common/Orcish
Weapon of Choice: Falchion
Background: Sumak hails from the bustling metropolis of Calimport, at one time a rather respected body guard to a wealthy merchant, he now seems to be doing everything in his power to forget his previous life, usually by finding the bottom of his next mug of ale. His background would appear to be military to anyone watching him fight, though lacking disciplined training in recent years his combative style has become a little rough around the edges. He spent some time as a sailor, so knows his way around a ship - and as a caravan guard. Both jobs with the same goal in mind, working for passage to the Sword Coast.
Goals: His goals are to mass himself a small fortune adventuring, and to forget his previous life in Calimport by making a new one in the Sword Coast. He also has other agenda's that will develop over time surrounding the locket he wears and why he's such a raging alcoholic.
Possible Plot-Hook Ideas and Misc Facts:
# This man enjoys bards - though trying to forget his previous life, he finds his native language, alzhedo, to be the most musical of human tongues and will often pay handsomely for [Calish ite] songs and music.
# The locket he wears clearly used to belong to a woman, and often when sober one will note him idly turning it over in his fingers.
# When he allows himself Sumak shows signs of an honourable untone, he dislikes breaking his word - though will usually pass it off as being harmful to his 'reputation' as a mercinary. He will never harm a pregnant woman, or child - and infact dislikes fighting women in general. Having to do so (Fight a woman) will put him in an exceedingly foul mood for the rest of the day.
# He doesn't like horses; "Because there is no knowing it's mind, only that it is devious at both ends - and sly in the middle.." (Yes, I have seen Sherlock Holmes.)
# Paradoxically he likes camels; "Is easy to know when a camel does not like you... You have to duck."
# He likes ladies, like he likes his swords; "Sharp and curvy, yes?"
# Most people of Calimshan worship Talos out of fear, not any particular devotion, he may cease this practice and venerate Tempus as his character progresses, though lip service to the Lord of Storms will likely never cease - lest fury fall upon him!
(( Note, I had to separate the the 'Calish' and 'ite' in the word, due to forum filters on profanity I assume, so assume everything in the squared bracket is one word no spaces!))
