Argarius

Good Morning My Lord

I am sorry for not meeting with you before now but it seems that I have been running around trying to help keep the peace between my brother Marconus and a close family friend, the theurgist Baronous. Sometimes my brother tends to take the name calling a bit too seriously without thinking about the fact that he himself is doing the same to others. In that respect I do most humbly apologize to you for the comments about “his tin canness” that my brother makes in regards to you. Believe me when I say that he does hold you in the highest regard and is more than willing to answer your call to arms whenever he is needed. Though he does not think that much, he does have a good sword arm, or two in his case, and is more than willing to use them for a good and just cause whether it be in defense of the realm, to aid a comrade-in-arms, or to protect those he takes under his charge, which I believe is where her Ladyship, the Lady Delora, stands right now, and you can be assured that he takes his duties, whether self imposed or not, very seriously.

I am afraid that I can not however offer you a sword arm. The skill of the sword was bestowed on my brother at birth and I was not blessed with that ability. I have tended toward the healing arts myself and as such I went into the clergy as I grew older. I have taken a specialization in the healing arts as I spent a good deal of time tending to a brother’s wounds. My time in training seems to have taken longer than it did for my brother and friend and as such, I am not a skilled as they are at this time but my skills will grow.

<a loud crash is heard outside>

Forgive me m’lord….I will return shortly….<Argarius picks up a mace and shield>…”these, well milord I may not use a sword but I am far from defenseless” <casts a few spells on himself then casts a smite on one of the zombies that were attacking the village then wades into battle>…..<after the battle, you see Argarius going around and placing a healing hand on some of the wounded as you are cleaning off your own sword (I sort of doubt you would sit aside during an attack on innocents)>

I see my brother has chosen wisely in aligning himself with one that would not let his title stand in the way of a fight. I am sure the people here are grateful for your sword arm right now. It seems that the dead are rising up with a good deal of frequency now that Arthur is gone and it is a chore to continue to destroy them but it is a task that must be done, and it seems that the life of a farmer is not one for me as my calling is brought me into the realms of adventuring.

As I was saying earlier, my skills tend toward the healing arts at this time, though I hope to expand this in the future to be able to become a bit more versatile buy gaining some knowledge in enhancements. I am sorry to say that smiting is not of the greatest concern to me as I am a healer and not a fighter. Yes, I can defend myself if needed and will fight, though I choose to help those that are more skilled at fighting than I.

I am still trying to find my way in this world and as such I have not really chosen any particular skills that may be of any help for the guild. I will probably try to gather what I can for my brother to salvage as he can for his skills in weaponsmithing and armorcrafting. I believe that our friend Baronous is doing that now in Keltoi as he has been constantly giving me items that I currently can not use as I am not skilled in their use yet, such as the chainmail both he and my brother have given me (showing you a piece of Keltoi Battlemail and Duskwalker leggings). I do feel, however, that I shall be heading to the fields of battle as soon as possible to see if I can provide some help in defending our borders from the hoards of Hiberians and MIdguardins that tend to encroach upon them. I am hoping to enlist the aid of Mithel and Alerwyn for my travels into the battlefields as well so that we can all gain from the knowledge and watch each others backsides as well.

For now my lord, I need to take my leave, if you will permit it. I need to head to the tombs of Mithra as I hear the undead are rising there and it is time to put them back down. I feel that my skills in healing and, god forbid, resurrection are in demand and severely needed. In aiding there, I can gain in skills needed to expand and grow. I do hope that we get to meet again soon milord as I have enjoyed this time and conversation. I only hope I have not delayed you from more pressing matters. Please give milady my regards and if you see them please tell my brother to duck more as I am not there to bandage him up and tell Baronous to stop picking on my brother so much as it could get him killed as I am not there to stand between them. They are as close as brothers but even family can get on your nerves at times.

I bid you good day your lordship and good travels to you.
