Character Creation
Name:
Alvinorinthian "Alvi" Sephecur.
Age:
16
Gender:
Male
Origin: Exedia
Biography:
Alvinorinthian Sephecur was born to two merchants who worked in a caravan while they were on their way to Averésia. The reason they gave their child such a long name was so when he took over the caravan, nobody would be able to forge his signature. Marocath and Eliss Sephecur were certain they would raise their young boy to be a wildly successful merchant. From the moment he could form full, conscious sentences, they were teaching him how to be charismatic, barter, and calculate numbers. Because of this, Alvi was always a great speaker and was quite decent in math. Up until Alvi was seven, he was sure he'd be taking over the caravan.
One fateful evening, when the Sephecur's set up camp for the night, a group of bandits came in and robbed everything from them, including Alvi. They drugged the young child to make sure he wouldn't wake up. What happened to Alvi's family is unknown. The group of bandits were intersected when they entered Exedian lands. They recovered the goods from the bandits (which were supposed to be delivered to Exedia anyway) as well as the child. The Exedian soldiers brought the child back to the city and to an orphanage.
When Alvi first came to, he was in an orphanage surrounded by many boys and girls as well as a woman. Alvi was obviously shocked and started screaming out for his mother and father. It took almost half an hour of screaming, kicking, and yelling before everyone managed to calm Alvi down to Crying. Once he was fully calmed, the woman who ran the orphanage explained how he was found while being held hostage by bandits. When he asked about his family, they simply replied with, "We do not know yet." Alvi spent a year at the orphanage. Overtime, he built up a reputation for being incredibly smart. Still wanting to become a caravan merchant, he set up a little marketplace around his bed for people to buy extra food, toys, and other things with other things, toys, and extra food. He was also known to be very precise with his maths. This caught the attention of an old inventor who worked for a known as the "Ways of Iron Clan"; a group of inventors who were skeptical about Heonia and that arcane material. They believed machinery was the future. The old inventor, Horatio Erson, decided to adopt the young Alvi, as he believed his skill in mathematics could make him a good inventor, while his bartering skills could sell their machinery.
Alvi was at first, not happy about being brought in to the Ways of Iron Clan. He didn't want to be an inventor. However, Alvi's scepticism ended when Horatio showed him a spinning top that used hot water as a fuel source so it could spin for a long period of time. Alvi was instantly fascinated. Over the next 8 years, Alvi spent all his time with the Ways of Iron Clan. He expanded his knowledge of mathematics, as well as gain a new outlook on life. Everyone there seemed so driven and enthusiastic, Alvi started acting that way too, learning to always smile, even when he was sad. Alvi was creative with his mathematics, and began inventing things. Since he was still an apprentice inventor, these things were simple. The one thing he was most proud of are his low-light vision googles, which he has on constantly.
One day, while at a library studying, he overheard some people talking about the land of Heonia and how there was this Arcane material there. Fascinated by this, Alvi being his cheery, outgoing self, inquired them about it. After he heard their explanation, Alvi was thrilled. He rushed back to the clan to tell his clan members about this. They told Alvi their views on the Arcane Material and how "machines were the way of the future." Alvi tried to convince them that they could use this arcane material in conjunction with their machines to make things that were once impossible. They laughed it off. Ironically, it was the lessons about drive and determination the clan taught Alvi that got him to leave the clan. He made his way for the boats and to Heonia. Though he may not be the most experienced inventor yet, he believes through his research and hard work, he can invent something amazing.

Your character's physical appearance:
Your character's strengths and weaknesses:
- Strengths: Alvi is a hard working individual who is driven to pursue his goals. He is an intelligent person (especially when it comes to mathematics) and is quite charismatic. He has a cheery, positive attitude that he always has around, even when times are tough. He is incredibly creative and imaginative, being able to invent a vast array of simple things using what he learned through seven years of inventing apprenticeship. He is also humble and is grateful for any effort people put in to helping him, assisting him, or even giving him advice. To top it off, Alvi is very kind and outgoing, wanting to see everyone he meets smile after they part.
- Weaknesses: Though Alvi, is hardworking, that is all he really wants to be. If Alvi is not working on anything, or lazing around, he will start to feel useless and possibly even get depressed, depending on the amount of time he spends not doing any work. However, because he always keeps on a smile, nobody will ever know he is in distress and needs help. Though he is charismatic, he never communicates his true feelings to anyone. Alvi is also a pushover. He doesn't know how to say no to people due to the fact that he's been so grateful to people who've helped him, that he feels he needs to help others. Because of this, Alvi is very easy to manipulate. Due to his intelligence and charisma, people could put Alvi up to do things which could cause harm, despite Alvi's Naivety. Speaking of which, Alvi is also very, very Naive. He believes that everyone has good in them and deserves help, which further makes Alvi easier to manipulate.
