Out of curiosity for now I wouldn't be able to play the Lord of Lear? I have a Rathmore semi-noble character. If I were to make another charrie where would be the best spot?
“Ar” Alexander Rathmore. Ar is pronounced like the letter.
Age forty and one years.
Ser. Spymaster of the King.
Loyalty - Rathmore.
Armin Rathmore - Father Terrion Ingrahm - Mother (both parents retired to a cottage in the woody outskirts of the Windkeep) To be declared - Spouse, children.
PERSONALITY Ar is a calculating man primarily, but not cold. Some coldness is necessitated by the trade of Spymaster sure, but Ar does a good job of not letting his work become who he is entirely. He cherishes the finer things in life such as good wine and good drink, and fast horses. He spends a lot of time at the stables recreationally when he is not with his family or conducting espionage. He attends every meeting in House Rathmore, being privy to the most information of anyone there. He also has never been sick on an occasion like a feast or celebration, he’s a man of perfect attendance. The reason perhaps that Alexander was chosen to be Spymaster of the House of the King is his ability to be enigmatic. He personally holds many cards for the kingdom, tokens of information and facts and seeds of lies. He is not above manipulation and using people in his work as Spymaster, and many of his spies are children and whores, though this fact is one he guards closely so as to not chance bringing any shame upon his proud huntsman family. He maintains almost two separate personalities, one in which he allows himself to be human and amicable and another in which he arms himself with brutality and deceit professionally crafted and almost mechanically executed.
HISTORY Ar was born to a respected branch of the Rathmore family. He was the only child of his parents, which although they did not reveal this to him was to their dismay. His mother wanted more heirs for his father but for whatever reason it didn’t happen. He was trained as any Rathmore should be in the arts of hunting, foraging and farming. He memorized the facets of the land surrounding the Windkeep for many miles, such that every footstep is now a familiar one to him. The most significant detail of Alexander’s past is an event of retaliation for which he became infamous. Once there were many more smugglers in a port city among the beaches of the South, and they had become such a nuisance that the Spymaster was required to dismantle their operation. Upon arrival in the city, Ar found many of his associates dead. The smugglers three leaders had caught wind of him before he made his first move, a rare occurrence for the Spymaster, and one he would not forget since it cost him eleven friends. After the burials transpired, and Ar had finished paying his respects to fellow comrades among them six children the smugglers had murdered, Ar turned his attention to formulating a bloody counterattack. One night, the three leaders of the smuggling band each woke up to over a dozen assassins at their bedside, with their families and ship mates bound and gagged to watch what would unfold. Alexander only took three lives in exchange for eleven, but it was justice in his eyes. Smuggling has been reduced to a fraction of what it once was in that city to this day.
Please use the labels for each section, as it would make it less confusing to deduce what is what when it comes to the personality / background sections. Type out the age. The titles would simply be 'Ser, and Spymaster of House Rathmore' Allegiance would be House Rathmore. Good to go.
He's spying for the King not for his house though. His King happens to be in his house but he would do it for any house if they became King instead. Is that okay?

Since my character is Spymaster of Rathmore so far, could Spymaster be a role like Hand of the King where the character isn't eligible to be King while holding the position? If then, could he be a Rathmore? Also sorry to ask yet another question but it will help me make the dude, but what relation CAN he be in the Rathmore house? Second cousin of the King? xD
Well haha your toon can be my Spymaster's lady if you feel like, I am thinking he will be infamous and not the most handsome but he's a Rathmore. Up to you but he's available if you don't prefer a different Lord. : p Thought I would put the offer out there though.
I see! I think of the two I would prefer to make the spymaster of house Rathmore, so that's all right? He could perhaps be the Kings' brother? I'm not particular about his place in the family yet, what do you think?
