Name: Asher Argent
Gender: Male
Appearance: Asher is a handsome young man, and is a bit taller than average. His hair and eyes are both gold, and he keeps his hair short, but messy. His skin is tan and he has well toned muscle. He gestures when he speaks, and puts his hand on his necklace or on his sword when he is nervous.
Biography: (Bare bones summary, more detailed version as time goes on. I'll likely send it out in chapters.) Asher is the son of a minor noble, The Duke of Heights Keep. As such, he was trained from birth in such things as reading, writing, mathematics, swordsmanship, and horseback riding. At the age of 11, he chose to learn to be a doctor. He trained as the apprentice of his father's court physician, George Redfern, and learned the trick of his trade. The physician had radical ideas, such as washing your hands after a procedure, or washing your equipment, along with others. Despite the whole of modern medicine dismissing them, Asher took his teacher's ideas to heart. All the while, he continued to excel in swordsmanship and horseback riding. Despite his dislike of mathematics, Redfern required him to continues working at his best, eventually to the point where Asher was a fully capable mathematician, as well as a swordsman, rider, and physician. At age 18 Asher stuck off on his own. He left his fathers home with his trusty horse Arion, his favorite sword and armor, his lucky necklace, a good sum of money, and his physician's kit. He spent the next 8 years traveling throughout the land, helping people in need for a modest price. He also, became quite adept at lying, for reasons available in the full release. He ended up joining the group as he was in the tavern and he ended up sitting at their table. Do not mistake his noble upbringing for weakness though. Asher has spent 8 years on his own, he is entirely capable of handling himself.
