Geort Paém

At the guard barracks, you ask for the captain, and the scribe there shakes his head. He then leads you into a small office where a man is sitting at a table. There is a bottle of alcohol on the table, recently opened, and the room reeks of the stuff.   The man himself has wild, unkempt brown hair and wears armour and a helmet that designate him the Captain of this particular group of guards. His eyes are blue and watery and have difficulty focusing on you. He looks as though he may have been fit once, but a dependence on drink has rendered him nearly useless.   "Hello!" he says a little too loudly, then adds in a quieter voice, "I'm the Captain 'round here. What can I - can I do you for?"

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Geort appears unfit to the eye, but he can be swift and strong when he needs to be.

Physical quirks

His dependence on alcohol, though, means that he tends to lurch around a little when he walks and isn't always the brightest or most dependable.

Apparel & Accessories

He tends to wear the trappings of station, but he sheds these when he is resting, opting for light-coloured tunics and trousers.

Specialized Equipment

He usually wears his armour and longsword when he's on duty.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Geort grew up in a broken family, with his mom living as a farmer in Plainér Town and his father living in the capital as a carpenter. The two parents were constantly arguing and didn't pay much attention to their child. When Geort was finally old enough to go into the military, he quickly became hooked on alcohol, and he drunkenly made his way to the title of Captain of the guard in Plainér Town.

Morality & Philosophy

Geort still wishes to uphold the law of the Empire, but he doesn't worry too much about the moral implications of these laws or whether or not they are unfair. He still dispenses the law fairly and justly when he needs to. He likes to think of himself as a good person that bad things have happened to.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

When he first joined the military, he wanted to become the Lieutenant of the Imperial Army for one of the many military forts and camps on the borders of the Empire, but those individuals needed to be well-educated and of a noble background, which he lacked. He settled for being a Captain of the Imperial Army/Imperial Navy, but he still wonders if his good work over the last few years is enough to get him the position.

Savvies & Ineptitudes

  • He isn't particularly efficient in his job, and he rarely cares enough to put in a good effort.
  • He knows the town and its inhabitants very well.
  • Likes & Dislikes

  • He enjoys a good drink or two (or three or...)
  • He dislikes gambling in his barracks and will stop it if he sees it.
  • Virtues & Personality perks

  • A good sense of right and wrong.
  • A sense of loyalty.
  • Vices & Personality flaws

  • His addiction to alcohol
  • A general laziness that that dependence induces.
  • Hygiene

    Although he would be considered clean by many standards, his musk mixed with the smell of strong alcohol begs to differ.

    Social

    Social Aptitude

    He isn't very charismatic, tending to pull rank if he needs to persuade someone. He is very confident, especially if he's been drinking and he thinks incredibly highly of himself. His manners would be fine if he wasn't drunk so much.

    Speech

    He'll slur his speech a little when he talks, and his voice can get a bit loud.

    Wealth & Financial state

    A Captain of the Imperial Army makes a significant amount of money, but Geort spends it very quickly on alcohol. He has very little money on him and he lives in a rundown house near the Plainér Miner's Village.
