Personality:
Tannin will typically come across as rather aloof, acting as if he knows more than you ever possibly could. He is confident and knows that he is good at what he does. Though he is an assassin, Tannin can actually be a sweet man once you break through his walls and get him to let his guard down. Though he is a murderer for hire, he only kills those that deserve death. He adores learning new things and is always curious about something if it's not been encountered by him before.
History:
History: Tannin was born into the world as any other child typically is. His parents were of the lower class and barely had the means to make ends meet. Before Tannin was even four years old, his father left the family. Being the only child, Tannin took it upon himself to try and take care of his mother..to no avail. When the boy was only ten years old his mother was dragged from the small home and beaten to death in the name of the King. The poor child was forced to watch as he lay hidden from the Guards. Shortly after this event, he was recruited into the Assassins' Guild buy the former Master, Makur. The older man had taken the boy under his wing, teaching him all of the skills that he would ever need in life. During the long hours of training, it was discovered that Tannin was quite agile and able to move more quickly and smoothly than his fellow assassins.
As it became apparent that Makur was grooming Tannin to take over as Guild Master when he was gone, a few other assassins quickly became overwhelmed with jealousy. The set up a job for the young boy's final test. Makur had trusted the wrong men to handle this. The man that Tannin was assigned to kill had been aware of the boy's arrival. He'd been waiting for the boy. He quickly outmatched Tannin and had knocked him out and tied him up against a wall. While the young boy was still out of it, the man took a red hot blade and began slicing the boy's face. Tannin had quickly awoken, screams filling his lungs. Makur luckily had followed the boy to make sure that he didn't run into any trouble. When Tannin didn't finish as quickly as he should have, the Guild Master investigated. The older man quickly overpowered the other man and quickly got Tannin out of the horrible building.
Tannin healed over time but would be scarred for the rest of his life. When Tannin reached the age of 17, he became the new Guild Master. Makur passed from the world of a deep wound that could not have possibly been healed save by magic. Everyone in the Guild followed Tannin's word as law. They obey only him.
