Only recently arriving in the shire of Crying Heavens, he has not yet adjusted to living with others nor talking to them, though that does not stop him from being friendly and battling with them. Raziel carries a bow with two swords strapped to his back and throwing knives on the pouches attached to his pants. He is an honest person and is not very trusting due to his past. If you wish to fight with him then do not be afraid, for he is an excellent fighter and will do all to make sure his allies live through the battle, even willing to sacrifice himself if needed.

Personal History
Raziel was once a farmer peasant that lived in a very small town not mentioned on any map. He lived peacefully by himself and was well known throughout the town since everyone one bought his crops. On a night were everything was the same something irked Raziel. He had an unnerving feeling of discomfort but despite that he fell asleep without a problem. Late in the evening he heard marching steps that awoke him, which is unusual since it is very difficult to wake him. The guards of the mayor knocked on his door and wearily Raziel opened. The guards said he was to be arrested for sleeping with the mayors daughter and with that they knocked him out and dragged him to jail. He awoke the next morning with a headache and a bump the size of an apple. When the guards came it was time for his execution but Raziel was not about to be put down like some animal...
As the guard removed the ropes from his hands Raziel quickly drew the guards sword form its sheath and killed him and the other two before they knew what was going on. He took another sword and escaped before reinforcements arrived. Before Raziel left the village that had betrayed him he passed by his old friends house, an archer by the name of Zephon who would spend nights with him recalling tales of his adventures. When Raziel explained to Zephon what happened, Zephon told him who was responsible. A knight named Turel had recently come to the village seeking to marry the mayors daughter, but she was in love with someone else. Zephon was on guard at the time and overheard. The king had asked his daughter who but she would not confess for she knew the fate of her lover would be death. Zephon explained that they must have found out that she loved Raziel and Turel ordered the execution. Raziel was shocked by all of this and although he regretted leaving his friend behind and a woman who he had just found out loved him, he knew he had to flee. Before leaving Zephon entrusted Raziel with his bow and prayed that it would be just as useful to him. With that the two shook hands and Raziel took off under the cover of the night into the woods were he would live for 7 years before he found the shire of Crying Heavens.....
