Richter Gehring, Knight of Cold Steel

Richter is a former Knight of a Dalmascan noble house, taken in when he was just a boy. With an absent father and a drug-addicted mother, his home life was tumultuous, to say the least. After getting a taste of the power and influence that came along with being employed as the knight of a Royal house, Richter quickly spiraled into an incredibly dark place. To him, the power he now held over others was the taste of freedom, exactly what he deserved after a childhood of pure, unmitigated pain.

Unfortunately, his power was not to last. Despite his charismatic and affable attitude, Richter has always been opportunistic and manipulative, taking advantage of the first impressions that he is able to craft. Being in this position of power over others led to egregious transgressions against the House that had taken him in, which in turn led to his expulsion as a knight. After being removed from his position for abuses of his power, Richter's mind spiraled further. Joining with Garlemald and betraying his former House, Richter sentenced his former comrades to death and dismay, gleefully watching as his former allies were cut down and humiliated. Believing himself to finally be untouchable, Richter continued to allow the evil within to grow and burgeon, until even Garlemald grew wary of his ambition.Deciding to eliminate him before he could pose a threat to the order that they had so carefully maintained, Richter was falsely told that he would be promoted in a grand ceremony. Instead, he was taken to a remote oasis and shot by his superiors. Left to die in the Dalmascan desert, he swore an oath - An Oath of Conquest against all that would stand in the way of what he was owed: Power and influence. Now, he strides the land, quietly biding his time and continuing to take what he believes is his.Note: This carrd is still a work in progress, and will be updated frome time to time.
