Mental characteristics

Education

He went to Falls Academy and did very well for himself. This is where he also found his passion for the history of the unknown. With everyone having a similar language in common Haru became intrigued by the unique languages created by those in the past. Luckily for Haru he was the third son, and as such he was not required to oversee territory or land. He was able to spend his time in school learning what he wished, and he was able to expand his knowledge of languages and cultures.

Employment

And he began working for the Limbo Institute. This institute was in the process of rediscovering all that was lost during the big war with the dreaded pirates. They were exploring to find the remains of the fallen cities and of the pirate ships themselves in the hopes to return anything found to the people that once belonged to them.

First thirty-five years Haru really enjoyed working for the institute but the itch to explore outside of his Kingdom grew too strong. He had made many adventuring acquaintances, so he got together with them and asked them to join him on an adventure to explore beyond the Kingdom of Mythfall.  

For the remainder of his life Haru traveled with his companions exploring the wonders and mysteries of the world. He is a world-renowned archaeologist. He rediscovered many lost and wondrous things that were lost to history. Even though his companions may have changed from time to time he was consistent and always looking in the dark for the next secret the world was willing to give him.

Failures & Embarrassments

During one of his early excavations he found in Old Gnomes City. The Gnome city was full of corridors and buildings made of strong metal. As Haru explored the ruins his companion would use his trap-finding ability to look for traps and Haru would use his solar sword, once he was given the clear, to open the doors that were now sealed shut. Sally unbalanced Haru and his team not all doors are meant to be open. This was discovered as horror sliced through to open adore and the smell that assault salted their nostrils. The room filled with the smell of the solar sword burning through a mass of rot and decay. The room beyond was full of black liquid with white pus. the solar sword burned and melted the solid mass into a black liquid that fell upon him and those behind him. The smell took so long to leave them, that no matter how many baths they took, they swore they could still smell it months later.

Mental Trauma

On this second ship that horror was excavating, he found something that would change his life and the lives of those around him. On the Dread Pirates Hellions’ ship, they found a bright stone that was as bright as the sun. Haru was wearing a rune enchanted glove that was supposed to protect him from heat but sadly when he picked up the stone it burned right through the glove and into his hand once the stone touched his bare skin, he felt his whole body go aflame.

As the pain continued, he soon could no longer see for he was now blinded by the light he felt as if he was falling directly into the sun. he felt like hours and days gone by due to the length of the pain that he felt those watching on the outside would say that it was only mere moments but for Haru, it became a lifetime. Those that watched said Haru picked up the item and his whole body was covered in flames. When the flames were doused Haru lay on the ground unconscious and unable to move. He was brought to the camp where he slept for several days. The stone became embedded in his hand no one was able to remove it. Upon waking up Harry was able to wield the stone and use solarmanacy.

Upon much discovery it appears the dreaded pirate Helen had used this stone 2 caused the havoc that allowed them to take over cities so quickly. They made it a solar cannon that would wipe out anything in its path.

Religious Views

He knew the eight Gods exist and that there are so many different ways to worship them.  The world worships the eight Gods and he has found many small differences in that certain parts of the world worship their specific God. there are even Cult groups that follow a twisted way of the 8 Gods,  He really just knows they exist but he doesn't put worry about them besides seeing what effect they have had on his work.

Mannerisms

He is a bit of an oddball that speaks his mind. He knows many languages and he sometimes, subconsciously, mixes language together. he even got to a point of mixing some words together so often that he created his own words. When he discovers new things he doesn't believe in complicated naming and will call it something simple. He detests people that discover/rediscovers things and name them after themselves.
