Name:
Beorn Clovermaen
Title/or Moniker: Royal Herbalist; Brother Beorn
Gender Male
Age: 24
Species: Human
Class/Occupation: Member of the Order of St. Clemens; Third Class
Description:.
Wearing simple brown robes held together by a coarse rope, Beorn is the very image of a simple monk. He disdains ornamentation, favoring many pockets in his robes to carry scrolls, pouches of herbs, knives, and other everyday cools. He is a handsome man with long curly hair that marks him as a non-celibate member of the Order of St. Clemens and thus not technically ineligible. He has a reasonable muscle and callouses from working in the royal gardens often and greenish blue eyes to match his occupation.

Personality:.
Beorn is a gentle, retiring sort of person, content to look after plants and people in need of physical or spiritual healing rather than getting involved in the complexities of life at the king's court. He is polite and well-spoken with an obvious education but little experience around nobility save for a select few. Beorn does not go out of his way to antagonize people and mostly desires to avoid conflict, though is sarcasm is a force to be reckoned with when pressed. Beorn is an academic and has more than once considered taking additional vows so that he might spend all day reading and praying in a monastery, but only briefly. Beorn is a nurturing individual who takes his vocation seriously, particularly when it comes to certain ill people such as the prince. He is not good with flirting as he is easily flustered and more than once pretended to be celibate to avoid certain noblewomen with a reputation for devouring their partners, metaphorically speaking.
Quirks and Habits:
Fingering prayer beads
Quoting certain scripture passages or classical literature
Sometimes forgets that his hands are dirty from gardening

Land/Kingdom: Byrdain
History:.
Beorn will be the first to tell you that his life is not an exciting one to speak about. As a babe, his village was burned down by the Northmen from Fjellborg and he was lucky enough to have been rescued by a priest christening him that night. They were the only survivors of that terrible day and both of them were taken in by the Order of St. Clemens in a humble monastery outside of Dragon's Hold. There, he was raised to be a healer, ministering to spiritual and physical ailments of all people, peasant or high lord.
The priest who rescued him happened to be a healer of note himself, though he had a terrible hand when it came to gardening. It came as a surprise to no one that he became the old man's apprentice and accompanied him to court when the king paid the Order for his services in caring for his younger son. Beorn first met the prince when he had become bedridden with a fever and the two of them ended up bonding during his long recovery, Beorn and Lelinus being of closer age to one another than to Beorn's master.
As he grew older and Beorn's master gave up his spirit to Artemesia, Beorn replaced him as the Royal Herbalist and became the young prince's closest confidant due to the amount of time they had to spend with one another. With Lelinus' marriage being held in the capital, Beorn is of mixed feelings. On one hand, he is thankful for the end of the war, but on the other hand, he feels pity for his friend as his marriage was engineered as a slight against him and, most likely, his new wife. Still, it is none of his business and he will be there for his friend in the times ahead.
