Ihramin Zorin
Hwaverlian | 20's | Male
Information
Not all soldiers are soldiers, and when it comes to Ihramin, he is far from his role in society. Afraid of fighting and timid to confrontation, this shield bearer is not the one you'd want next to you on the shield line. But his survival isn't do to dumb luck or divine intervention, but rather his own cleaver ingenuity and befriending those around him with food. After all, who wants to kill or lose a good chef?
Likes and Dislikes
While he plays the part of Phalanxer and loyal Hwaver, Ihramin has no love for his caste or the roles that have been imposed on him. He just won't admit that near others.
Prefers tending to people's culinary needs than training in formation for combat.
Views non-Hwaverlians to be exotic, since being isolated from other species having lived in Laveria most of his life.
Enjoys exploring the lands for new spices and herbs to increase his recipie list .
Traits and Skills
Unlike other Hwavers, Ihramin is a subspecies of Hwavers, making him around 2 feet shorter than most.
An exceptational chef, capable of making quality dishes with very little.
Talons allow him to perch and latch to walls and rocks, even hang upside down if need be.
He is not skilled in combat. Although he has been trained, his timid nature and fear of fighting makes him an easy opponent.
Lore
Ihramon hails from the mountains of Laveria, a series of floating islands high above the ocean in the southern most region of Tsushoro. A rigid species rooted in tradition and caste establishment, Hwaverlians are the second people to reside in Laveria, yet the most brutish of the species in Tsushoro. Idolizing the notions of honor and warfare, they make some of the finest warriors out there, with their famed Kossokin warriors being the most romanticized and idolized. Long are the tales and songs of Hwaverlians exploits in war and battle, yet since the Third Tsushoric War, no nation wide conflict has taken place. With Laveria being isolated from the rest of the Isles, much of Hwaver Society has stagnanted, merely training and awaiting the next major war, yet relying on their Skillie neighbors for many of the resources they aren't able to acquire. As such, a few have started to wonder about life outside of Laveria, outside of the Castes. Ihramin is one of the few members of Hwaver Culture that has no interest in next conflict, hoping to escape his caste and become a chef. Born into the role of Phalanxer of the Adamant Caste due to being a shorter subspecies of Hwaver, Ihramin serves as a frontline shield bearer, the first line of defense, a role he hates. Expected to carry a large tower shield and hold the line, he knows should a war break out, he will be one of the first to die, but instead of abandoning his post, he has found much better ways to keep himself protected. From relaying purposely wrong information to the Kenturions Officers, to messing up maps, talking about hopeless myths for higher ups to pursue, and a number of 'sudden' medical issues, Ihramn will seldom be at the front if he can avoid it. And if he can't avoid the front, he'll have a number of fellow Phalanxers who will vouch for him. See, Ihramn is a good chef, capable of making fine dishes with minimal ingredients and he is prone to sharing it. With very few luxuries in his unit, a good chef is a treasure to be protected, so Ihramin has a lot going for him. He has managed to stay out of sight and out of combat, but his luck may run out one day. He's just going to do everything to prevent that.
