He is ever observant, watching everything around him, assessing everything and everyone, from threat level to the quickest way to strike a killing blow if need be.
History: Telth in truth doesn't remember his true name. He has been an orphan as long as he could remember. Living in an orphanage in the Falklands children were often used for the criminal element. Delivering packages or messages, spying on people as the orphans were fore the most part ignored by people. The "Ring" was organized by one of the older children ,Rickard, who worked with the adults taking jobs and passing them down to the younger children. The boy was of course roped into this, and it wouldn't of been to much a problem, If you did well you were rewarded with food. However if you failed you were beaten by the older kids. Rickard was a cruel and sadistic person. He would beat the younger kids for no reason other then to prove that he was the biggest and the strongest of them all. The boy kept to himself, though did his job and tried to ignore what was going on.
When The boy was eight though things changed. One of his friends was beat to near death. She couldn't move for days, and Rickard ordered that no one was to feed her or help her. The boy ignored this and would sneak her food and bandage her up as best he could. He was discovered however and ended up having running, but he couldn't get away as they caught up to him and beat him. He was left to die in the streets. He laid there awaiting death when some one walked up to him "You just going to lay there and die" the man said as he looked up "no one is going to help you, you have to help your self". The boy didn't know what was going on, why would some one stop to just to talk to him this way. Was he really that cruel?. He started to stand up "That's more like it, stand on your own feet boy" Once up he looked at the man "You want to learn how to fight boy? You want to never be afraid again? I can teach you. But first you must prove that you are worth teaching" he told him. He wanted nothing more then that, so he asked what he had to do. It was simple really, find the people that did this to him, and kill them.
The boy agreed. But he couldn't just out right attack them, they were older, bigger, stronger, but they weren't smarter. So he came up with a plan. He knew how the operation ran, who did what and when they were vulnerable. He was quickly forgotten and used that to his advantage as well. Intercepting messages, placing false drops he was able to lure them out and ambush them. He picked them off one by one, killing all three of them. Once he was finished the man approached him again. He told him that he would train with him, and that the boy he was died the night on the street. Only Telth remained.
Everyday after that was spent training. Fighting, Poisons, stealth, spying, observation, Noble families, crest, orginizations. Every day from wake to sleep these things were beat into him, both literally and metaphorically. Though oddly enough though this man was the closest thing he ever had to a father.
After years of training and travailing with his mentor he woke up one day, what was odd was this was the first time he woke up with out there being some trap trying to kill him, some late night ambush. After a few hours he realized that his mentor was gone. As fast as that man came into his life, he was gone. Telth carried on though, he had connections, ways to get work. It wasn't like he was left with nothing. On a mission though he took a mission, to kill a noble men. On planing out his attack he learned that this target was planing the assassination of another, a young noble named Joakim. The noble was taking precautions, having gone to ground. Telth instead planned to assassinate Joakim himself, not to actually do it, but to catch the man hired by the noble to lead him to him. The plan worked, he intercepted the would be assassin before the attempt was made. What he didn't know was that he wasn't as stealthy as he thought. After he had dispatched the noble and accepted his payment. After that he was approached by a man, offered a more permanent line of work. Thus Gavin Simon was born.
