NAME: drustan mac tiernan
TITLE: ---
AFFILIATION: solraya
AGE: twenty-seven
OCCUPATION: highwayman
LIKES:
- Wine -- Drustan loves to drink and carouse with his men, especially after a good lift off of a caravan.
- Women -- What more is there to say? It's his most favored of stress relievers. He loves being physical with women, and honestly, very little more.
- Coin -- Fencing stolen goods has become his bread and butter. He's found, in his youth, that coin truly makes the world go round. He gathers as much as he can.
- Adventure -- He refuses to stay static. Drustan truly prefers to venture about the land, always on the move and exploring.
- Conversations -- He's terribly charming, and with that said, he loves to simply talk with others. One would think he's rather educated by the way he does as well, although he has never learned to read or write.
- Fighting -- Another one of his stress relievers, and something that he finds himself proud of [specifically his own prowress], he loves to spar, and he loves duels.
DISLIKES:
- His Father -- The man disowned him outright, and he had threatened not only Drustan but his mother once upon a time ago. His father's reaction to him was what shaped him to dislike all forms of the high station in Solraya.
- Politics -- Drustan has never been a man for politics nor will he ever. He does not care about court proceedings unless it's about trade between lands in which he could take advantage of.
- Drama -- Drustan has a strong distaste for anyone attempting to spread false rumors or kindle of a fight through instigating one. He refuses to deal with anyone trying to start drama.
- Abuse of Power -- From his experience, royalty and nobility tend to abuse their power. It's one more thing that has shaped him, from what he had learned from his father.
- Lawmen -- Well, he's a highwayman and refuses to subdued. Of course he'd hate lawmen!
- Stubborn Folk -- If you're wrong then you're wrong! There's no use being stubborn, according to Drustan. It's highly frustrating when he deals with someone that simply refuses to bend to his will.
QUIRKS/HABITS:
- He tends to play with his belt knife.
- He smiles often, and seems to have an air of mirth to him
FEARS:
- He fears death and captivity.
- He fears losing all that he has, especially after doing so much.
TOXIC SECRET: He's the son of Cillian mac Tiernan, and although a bastard child, the true heir in some respect.
FATHER: Cillian mac Tiernan - 63 - Deceased.
Cillian mac Tiernan was a former Lord in Solraya, and he's the father of Drustan, who is Cillian's bastard child. The knowledge of his parentage was given unto him by his mother. Drustan only met Cillian once, however, but he was dismissed in privy, and he was denied outright and unclaimed by his father.
MOTHER: Lillian - 51 - Alive.
Lillian was born and raised in a village in Solraya. She was taken advantage of in her youth by the Lord mac Tiernan, and impregnated the woman after claiming her. Unfortunately, his false promises led to nothing more, and Lillian raised Drustan alone, struggling to provide for the child. Now, Drustan provides for Lillian, returning to her every couple of months.
OTHERS: Rhodry mac Tiernan - 24 - Alive.
Rhodry is Drustan's half-brother and legitimate heir to the mac Tiernan Household name. Despite this, Drustan still claims the mac Tiernan name, even going so far as to say that he's the rightful heir.
HISTORY: Drustan mac Tiernan was born and raised in a small village in Solraya where his mother, Lillian, had fled to after being disowned by her father. Despite being impregnated by the Lord mac Tiernan, she was denied outright, and even so far as to be threatened if she were to bring his birth to the light of day. Fortunately, Lillian was able to make ends meet and provide for Drustan by performing menial tasks for the people of the village. It wasn't easy going at first, but after gaining the trust of the fellow women, Lillian had been able to find steady work in a number of households, and even assistance for her own pregnancy.
Things became harder when Drustan was born. She was so young and had no true experience with children. Fortunately, a woman by the name of Sarah was more than willing to assist and teach her, allowing her to move into her cottage along with her family.
Drustan was a hellion. He was all over the place, and more often than not he could be found climbing things, making a mess, or wrestling with the other children shamelessly. Yet, he was treated kindly and the other children were fond of him and his ways. Drustan was at his mother's elbow when he wasn't playing, where he learned from her and all that she does to support him.
The years passed and Drustan found that he had many questions about his origin when he was older. When Lillian came clean about who his father was, without going into the gritty details, Drustan was intrigued and swore that he would seek out the man who fathered him, which he did. Unfortunately for Drustan, who was nineteen at the time, Lord mac Tiernan simply did not care for him. He was even offended by Drustan's presence, stating simply that he had no other son besides the one. He was an old, senile man at the time whom was at the end of his rope and withering away. Offended, and disgusted by his biological father's actions, Drustan decided that he simply did not care what the man said or stated. That he would still claim his surname as his own, and he did.
Refusing to live as an outcast, and outright bastard of Lord mac Tiernan, Drustan came to the decision that he would find a way out of it all. If Cillian wouldn't give him, and his mother, what they rightly deserved, then he would take what should be theirs. It wasn't hard to convince others to assist him; after all, he had grown up with other young men who wanted for more.
