Caltrops
Caltrops |Family Name Unkown| (a.k.a. Painkiller)
A strange and secretive young man who only goes by Caltrops. He is part of House Corvian, and true to his appearance, his backstory is covered in mystery, and in some cases, controversy. Many consider him to be dubious at best, plotting at worst. Internally, that couldn't be farther from the truth. Though his demeanor is quiet and his origins are mysterious, it comes from a place of self consciousness. Though few know of it, he is a young man of keen intellect for his age, versed in a variety of useful knowledge. He is a self taught medicinal savant and budding alchemist, capable of identifying and treating an array of conditions, as well as using his knowledge of the body and mind to his advantage in hero work to compensate a lack of might. He sticks in the background most of the time and getting him to talk (especially loud enough to hear) can sometimes be difficulty, but when danger arrives, he is capable of standing to face it with some level of confidence, especially when others are in peril. It's said that he actually was slated to be placed inside another house but personally chose to be a part of Corvian's school body for reasons unknown. He's polite, well meaning, and very perceptive of people and their emotions, as well as great at working as a team, if only people can learn to understand and work with him from within his reserved shell.
