+====== P'Arkon ======
+**Knight of Rakore**\\
+**Master-ranked Mage of Lok Magius**\\
+Character concept by Diego da Silva, all rights reserved.
+**Date of Birth:**  Unknown; probably 1300 or so.
+**Current Status:**  Summer, 1331 Avard.  P'Arkon is based mainly out of Lok Magius, but spends a considerable amount of time traveling Rakore and studying magics of all types.  He still maintains contact with his old traveling companions, sharing information and catching up on things: [[gaeleth:people:Hone Galadel]], [[gaeleth:people:Tramin McNeilson]], [[gaeleth:people:Phoenix Rising]], and [[gaeleth:people:Ahira Bandylegs]]
+====== Appearance ======
+The first thing most people notice about P'Arkon (pronounced Puh-Archon, and usually shortened to 'Arkon') is his feverishly intense eyes. Seeming to glow with an inner light, he has a powerful presence that makes many people wary and uncomfortable. Arkon dresses in darker robes that seem to blend in with the shadows, and has a dark hood that often hides much of his face. His black hair is graying, and he keeps it cut raggedly short. Coupled with his weather-stained and emotional face, suggests an age two decades more than his twenty-eight years.
+P'Arkon carries a small backpack with little more than writing supplies, food, a bed roll, and alchemist's gloves. He also carries several smaller sacks slung over his shoulders, carrying odd things from bars of soap to chalk to vials of spider toxin. At hand, he keeps a quarterstaff, and hidden in his robes is a dagger, and a score of darts. He wears a set of enchanted bracers that contribute greatly to his defense. Arkon has several enchanted rings, as well. Within his packs, out of sight of even the most skilled pilferers, he carries a scroll of summoning keyed to the dread knight Xemitar, and a capable of harming ghosts made from a single crystal of clear topaz.
+====== Background ======
+P'Arkon was studying to be a novitiate priest of [[gaeleth:divinities:Yatindar]] in the holy city of Karmen, when his sorcerous powers manifested themselves. Fleeing for his life, Arkon barely managed to stay one step ahead of the Seekers and Inquisitors that sought him out. Somehow escaping the holy city, he wandered the world for nearly a decade, serving in the [[gaeleth:history:War of the Undead]] down in the [[gaeleth:places:Alekdan Principalities]], working as an adventurer, and doing whatever it took to survive -- and to learn about his sorcerous powers. P'Arkon heard of the universities dedicated to magic in [[gaeleth:places:Rakore]], and traveled there to learn more about others like himself, in the hopes of uncovering his own inherent nature. Listening to the little voices in his head that have always helped him -- and sometimes maintained his sanity -- he joined with a small adventuring party in [[gaeleth:places:Teras]]. Eager to learn about their abilities, as well as to earn coin for his research, P'Arkon found himself bound to the leader of the party, a minstrel willing to accept him for who he is, despite his sorcerous abilities.
+Not long after that, the [[gaeleth:history:War of the Four Winds]] occurred, and P'Arkon found himself leading a fair number of mages.  Knighted for his actions, P'Arkon continues to serve [[gaeleth:places:Lok Magius]] in a variety of capacities.
+====== Character ======
+P'Arkon is intensely curious about a great many things, but his devotion to knowledge sometimes oversteps the bounds of common sense. Since his sorcerous powers manifested, he has had a split personality, both existing at the same time. The other personality speaks to him as demons within his mind, and Arkon often converses with himself in this way. Fully aware that he seems crazy, and just as aware that he may be crazy, P'Arkon is still a survivor to the core. Having seen a great deal of the world, and escaped the Inquisition's clutches -- for now.  Arkon fears little, but is still startled by the commonality of the world.
+====== Familiar ======
+P'Arkon's sorcerous companion is a raven called Equal. Capable of speaking in short, choppy phrases in the common tongue, Equal has proven himself a very intelligent, and very unpredictable bird. Most of the time, Equal is hidden and quiet, simply observing things -- though the bird has a disturbing habit of coming up with gold pieces from nowhere.
+P'Arkon speaks both the Common Tongue, and the Demonic Tongues.
