Post by Donatien Shahrizai (D) on Jul 12, 2006 22:14:55 GMT -5
Name: Donatien Shahrizai
Age: 29
Race: D'Angeline
Gender: Male
Appearance: 6'2", 185lbs of pure muscle, Donatien is a predator born and bred. A mess of onyx/blue hair matches with eyes that are so blue they appear black and haunted with darkness. His D'Angeline beauty is harsh and striking. There is an amount of unadultered carnal instinct outlining the the bulging curves of his mucles that would put fear into any doe's eyes.
History: Once, upon a chill afternoon, at the gates of the great City of Elua left a man, alone with his consience and his disgrace. Behind him lay the beloved city of which he would never set foot in again. Years later, a man who could have been his double, stepped back onto the gilded streets of that fair city. The grandson of disgraced Marmion Shahrizai of Kusheth, Donatien; son of Magnus and Marise Shahrizai.
After taking sanctuary from Nicola L'Envers, Marmion began to live his life over until the dark days of the past followed him. A young girl came beckoning one day, the tender age of sixteen, Marmion wed his young Shahrizai niece, only daughter of Persia. At seventeen she was with child.
Believing Marmion owed her a full life for the one he took, she sought out the uncle who murdered her mother while still in swaddling clothes. True to Shahrizai blood Penelope twisted Marmion around her little finger and he gave her the world in both gold and the bedroom. Many in Aragonian court soon feared Penelope as she was so young and yet so cunning, even for those that knew the Shahrizai Penelope was beyond sadistic. Soon after her eighteenth natal she gave birth to twins; Magnus and Marise. Pregnant again soon after the birth of the twins, at nineteen Penelope gave birth to Martin.
All three children were raised wholly by Penelope as soon after the twin's second natal Marmion hung himself. It was said a note was never found and that some suspected Penelope did him in herself. But Donatien knows differently. Contrary to belief Penelope had grown to love Marmion and even forgave him for her mother's death. In truth Marmion felt differently about Penelope and all the sins of the past seemed to fill the eyes of his children. He no longer could bare the guilt.
Magnus and Marise grew with a strong understanding of their Shahrizai nature, their mother insuring that they had the best tutors in and out of the bedroom. But is was sometime after their fourteenth year that Penelope encouraged Magnus and Marise together. Where some would cringe at the thought of bedding their sibling Magnus and Marise embraced it completely.
Penelope, after living in Aragonia for nearly twenty years decided to return to the Shahrizai fold and a cousin that offered her a tidy marriage bed. Martin, longing for time with his Shahrizai kin followed with her. Magnus and Marise stayed in Aragonia deciding to make their lives and home in the place they were born. They were wed at the age of nineteen and Marise was with child by twenty.
Donatien was raised away from court intrigue in the outskirts of Aragonia, he was brought up educated of all the history of the past decades of Terre D'Ange, as well as full Shahrizai history. He was learned in the ways of his birth country as well as his family's honors and dishonors. A quiet boy from birth he prefered to watch taking in everything with studied patience. His keen understanding and Shahrizai cunning made him dangerous as a boy and he was in trouble more times then could count. It was like that for many years, quiet and studious. Watching with predator like interest.
On Donatien's twelfth birthday, his grand mother had wed her Shahrizai cousin of some standing and was again with child. This time giving birth to a young girl named Paris and two years later another Selena. Magnus and Marise knew that Donatien needed more then the life the Marmion had corupted and with permission and a good word from Penelope Donatien was welcomed back into the fold. Though Magnus and Marise were still considered out casts Donatien found himself welcomed by his distant Shahrizai kin.
But Donatien never really fit in.
Where his kin would play games in cunning...where they would ride their horses into town and make merry...Donatien would remain behind giving him an uneasy air. It was often commented that his eyes betrayed nothing of his feelings, that a wall had been placed around his life. Donatien was always cold, aloof, vicious and often saying things beyond bazar to even the Shahrizai.
Spending most of his life either reading or writting Donatien never made many friends and this was prefered by all. Though well educated Donatien seemed cut off from all and after a few years Donatien grew bored of his confines of Kusheth and moved to the City.
