IC Information

Name/Alias: Fr. Adhemar Normand
Age: 45
Occupation: Vicar; Priest of the Path of Light
Born with The Vice?: Yes
If yes, do they use it?: Oh yes

Appearance:

A somewhat attractive but otherwise ordinary-looking white guy approaching middle age. The only distinguishing characteristic about him might be the very pale and clear blue of his eyes.

History:

Born in austere and frozen Griston, in the Fjords, to two nobody parents who died of exposure only a few short months after his birth. Became a ward of the church shortly after, and grew up under the care and tutelage of priests.

Revealed to be exceptionally bright and gifted at a young age; the only available avenue for this intelligence being dedication to the priesthood, thence he went.

Bit low on empathy, tho, but learned how to perform appropriate feelings/reactions so as to glide by without too much difficulty.

Discovered his proclivity towards the Vice as an early teenager; this discovery coincided with his determination that the gods, saints, and the Path of Light in general, were probably garbage.

Gets ordained anyway.

Spends a couple of decades doing the dull work of a vicar--traveling to perform marriages, preside over funerals, etc--and exploring obscure religious apocrypha lurking within the libraries and archives of different churches throughout the north of Maireglenne. Cultivates his vice in secret.

His scriptural research leads him to take up residence at the small, dusty vicarage of Northcliff Pass, situated close enough to Gods' Reach to suit most of his needs.

Personality:

Whatever you want him to be.

In all seriousness, he's a bit of a chameleon, but recognizes that his inability to connect emotionally with others could get him into hot water. He uses his position as village vicar as a solid enough excuse to keep people at arm's length, and for the most part it seems to work.

Abilities:

Literate, with a gift for illuminations.

Born under the influence of the Sea, his vice is strongest when he interacts with water.

Unexpectedly outdoorsy?? due to growing up in the Fjords.

Reputation:

A well-read, private man, that vicar. Keeps to himself when not overseeing the delivery of homilies and vespers.

Maybe it's his northern blood that makes his eyes so cold.

Notes:
Adhemar has been in Northcliff Pass for about five years--and replaced the last village vicar, who bit it when the Gods' Reach volcano last had a bit of indigestion and spat lava down upon the village inhabitants. (RIP Father Petyr.)
