Personality (1-2 paragraph minimum):Aperahama is normally a calm and cheerful young man, the product of a languid lifestyle. Beneath the surface is a warrior born of a thousand years of conquest. A temper as savage as a hurricane lies under the still water and when it is raised, he fights like a howling storm, holding nothing back until his fury blows out.
He is a loyal friend and he makes friends quickly. He protects those who he feels are weaker than he is. He is stubborn and it is difficult to get him to change his mind once he's made it.

Background (2-4 paragraphs minimum/max):Life was peaceful for Aperahama. The old tribes had been conquered so long ago that only a handful knew of their past as fierce warriors. He wasn't even aware that his name meant 'father of a mighty nation'. He, like most of his family had forgotten their heritage, even their language. Only his great grandfather, old, blind and senile, remembered anything of the old ways. It was he who insisted that Aperahama be given the name he was given and the 'old' wise woman, decades younger than the old man, saw something in his clouded eyes that made her refuse to gainsay him.
Aperahama and his family made a comfortable living pearl diving. The bay they lived on was rich with oyster beds. Aperahama enjoyed the sun on his skin, the wind on his face and the cold water caressing his body as he dove for more pearls. He knew nothing of the warrior heritage his family had abandoned. He knew nothing of the Gods they'd walked away from. He only knew the pleasures of life.
Aperahama had just come up with a promising looking basket of oysters. Hungry, he opened one to grab a quick meal. Inside he found a perfect black pearl. Knowing the value of such a find, he didn’t bother opening the others. He immediately headed for shore. The family rejoiced and made the decision to take the season’s pearls to market early. Having found the most valuable pearl of the season, Aperahama was invited to come along.
