Thesis East Chapter 1

A burly half-orc with greenish skin and a prominent jawline. He has short, dark hair and piercing yellow eyes. Parath wears simple but sturdy clothing, often adorned with leather armor, and has various scars that tell tales of past battles. His presence is imposing, and he carries himself with a mix of confidence and weariness.

Parath is pragmatic and shrewd, often coming off as cold and calculating. However, he has a soft spot for the downtrodden and believes in a twisted sense of justice. He is fiercely protective of those he considers his own, even if they are not free.

Parath, a half-orc, grew up in the harsh streets of Uthandra, where survival often meant making difficult choices. After years of struggling to find his place in a world that often rejected him, he found a niche in the Whispering Market, where he became the owner of a slave stall. While he is often seen as a ruthless businessman, Parath has a complex moral code; he believes that he is providing a service to those who cannot fend for themselves. He often tries to ensure that his 'merchandise' is treated well, seeing them as unfortunate souls rather than mere property. Despite his tough exterior, he harbors a desire for redemption and dreams of one day freeing those he has enslaved.
