"It's been swell."

Name: Rhys
Nickname: Dead Weight (Affectionately used by Asala)
Race: Human
Age: 23
Level: 1
Job: Mercenary
Class: Rogue
Weapon Specialty: Double Daggers

Abilities:

- Flank Attack
- Sneak Attack
- Twin Fangs
- Stealth

Sexuality: Bisexual
Relationship Status: Single
Looking: Not Intentionally

Personality: Carefree / Confident / Whimsical / Loyal / Hardworking / Creative

Rhys takes a laid back approach to personal life, not thinking too hard about the consequences of his actions. After all, thinking too hard about things means missing out on potentially unique experiences. He's confident that he can get himself out of most bad situations and that if he can't do it himself, Warrick and Asala will bail him out. The bond he has with the two of them is something he holds sacred. While he may seem fickle to others, he's unflinchingly loyal to those he considers family. Because he wants to do right by them, he takes his mercenary jobs seriously since his performance effects them as well. Once he accepts it, he'll find a way to finish the job no matter what, using his strength or his wits to accomplish it.

Likes: Taverns, Wine, Stories and Songs, Druffalo, Stunning Scenery, New Experiences, Warrick, Asala
Dislikes: Darkspawn, Racism, Uptight Nobles, Asala (it's a love/hate relationship)

Background:

Rhys spent his childhood raising crops and herding druffalo on his parent's farm. While he found the work satisfying, he knew early on that he wanted to leave to see the world once he was old enough. The stories his mother told him inspired him and he dreamt that he too could become one of the heroes she'd told him about. Even so, he always imagined coming home at the end of his adventures. However, this was not to be.

When Rhys was Thirteen, darkspwan attacked the farm and killed his mother. His father, being a rogue of some skill before becoming a farmer, fared better and fought his way through to Rhys. Unable to get off the farm, the two locked themselves in the cellar and waited. It was during this time that Rhys found out that his father had been tainted by the darkspawn while fighting them. Too weak to fight further, Rhys' father handed over his daggers and told Rhys that he had to kill him. Rhys refused at first, not wanting to acknowledge what was happening. However, seeing the pain his father was in as the taint set in finally convinced him to go through with it. All the will to fight drained from him, Rhys curled up in a corner and waited for the darkspawn to break through and kill him.

However, it wasn't the darkspawn that finally broke through. A dwarven warrior named Warrick, had slain the remaining darkspawn with the help of his ally, a female qunari mage named Asala. The rescue came as little comfort to Rhys. Warrick helped Rhys bury his parents and explained that he'd come to the farm to visit Rhys' father who happened to be an old friend of his. He then offered to let Rhys come along with them. Asala was against this idea and said that they should only take him as far as the nearest chantry. As far as she was concerned, they had no business dragging a child around on their missions. Warrick left the choice up to Rhys who decided that he was definitely joining up with the two of them. Asala was eventually persuaded to take him in on the condition that he got some proper training first.

Warrick taught Rhys a bit while they journeyed to Denerim, but it soon became clear that Rhys took after his father and was better suited to being a rogue. Asala recommended a teacher and while the two of them took care of odd jobs in Denerim, Rhys learned the basics he needed to hold his own in battle. Once Warrick was convinced that Rhys wouldn't be immediately killed, the dwarf started taking Rhys along on their missions. Rhys proved himself capable and Asala eventually accepted him as part of their group.
Rhys has stuck with the two of them ever since. Most of their work still consists of mercenary jobs even though Warrick has recently begun trying to become a merchant. He's terrible at it however so Asala and Rhys have begun taking on jobs in secret to help recover the money Warrick loses in his attempts.

Notes:

- Rhys likes people and getting involved with them. However, he does so with the intention of going back to Warrick and Asala afterward. Thus, he doesn't make a lot of lasting friendships. Most of his relationships (romantic or otherwise) are one night stand sort of deals. He is very upfront about this, but it still causes trouble from time to time.

- Rhys will fight most things without any issues. However, this is not the case when he's facing off against darkspawn. He is VERY afraid of them and has to work up his nerve before he can bring himself to face them. If not fighting them is an option, he'll most likely choose not to.

- He's learned some dwarven from Warrick. He isn't confident enough in his abilities to speak it, but he can usually make out the gist of what someone is saying. He can't read it though.

- Rhys gets along well with other races, but he is slightly more awkward around elves since he hasn't interacted with them as much.

- A lot of the stories Rhys' mom told him when he was young were based on his father's old adventures.

- He's actually decent lute player.
