Name: Ricorth (nickname Ri) Gospel
Gender: Male
Age: 20
Birthday: 1/1
Sexuality: straight
Special Characteristics: Stealy, white hair, long black coat with white wool lining, undistinguishable purple guild tattoo on his lower left neck partially obscured by scar tissue and his coat collar.
Personality: A con man of sorts, Ricorth enjoys his time dealing in the trade of debts and secrets. It's not uncommon to find him set up in tavern’s hall with a newly put together scam. This tendency for his genius money making ideas to backfire and get him into a predicament is only matched by his quick wit to get himself out. Above all these things is his fanatical obsession over money. This is a guy who won't help out much if not for a price and protects every penny he owns. Ricorth is prone to quickly waste large amounts. This leaves him usually a step away from in debt and always looking for the next big score. To this he sees training as a means to an end and works hard to perfect and hone his skills.
Ricorth's fighting style is a mirror of his life. He does not try to overpower his enemies with physical or magical strength but rather favors using stamina and wit to constantly adapt to the present situation. Although Ricorth approaches battles as a game but that doesn't mean he approaches things any less serious. Ricorth is only concerned with the end result of the fight and will pull whatever tricks he has to ,without endangering civilians, to come out on top. This may include using his words to lead an enemy into a false sense of security or using a thief's sleight of hand to deposit meaningless items from the area around him to be used and discarded later.
Under a leader, Ricorth isn't happy in taking a back seat especially but will begrudgingly obey as long as orders don't go against his own moral code.
Likes:
- Money- Ricorth is enthralled by the passing of bills and passing of coins. Money makes his world go round, so much so that one might ask why he isn't as rich as the king by now. This is only because his love for profit is only equaled by his love to spend.
- Sleep- Ricorth loves a good nap and is always open to any chance to grab some rest, no matter what the surrounding setting may be
- High Risk- Ricorth relishes those moments when the odds are stacked against him. For better for worse he is going all in. This combined with his love of money forms a rather nasty habit for gambling and card playing.
Dislikes:
- Being Broke- In similarity to how Ricorth loves money, he loathes being out of it which due to his vice of spending happens quite a bit.
- Responsibility-Ricorth hates being tied down with obligations that prevent him from living the way he wants to and will probably butt heads with whoever has a problem with that
- Being short - Ricorth's height is a touchy subject and the mention of it will usually cause him to lash out in anger.
Motivations:
- Wealth - Ricorth wishes to amass enough wealth to live his life as he wants to.
- Fame- Ricorth is ambitious and eager to make a name for himself either from fame or infamy.
- Win- Ricorth approaches life as a giant game. The winners are immortalized in history and the losers are forgotten and Ricorth has the gusto to do what he has to stay on top
Fears:
- Being Left Behind- Whether by history or by other people, Ricorth's number one fear is to fall to the wayside and become forgotten by history
- His old Guild- Lowlifes that stick together and usually don't take kindly when one walks out on them. This held true for Ricorth's old guild Phantom Cloak. Once he recognized the failing guild was heading nowhere, he took his leave without going through the proper procedures. Ricorth will take glances over his shoulder in fear of seeing any of his past comrades returning to take revenge.
- Death- An obvious fear but one Ricorth is not willing to comprise on. This gambler knows when the odds are stacked against you, it's better to fold and make a run for it.
