1. What is your full name?

I am known as Eremhon Black Eyes, son of Matudán of Ardglenn.

2. Where and when were you born?

I was born in the Year of Settlement 1495 in the small village of Ardglenn, outside the Ghalliath of Difelin.

3. Who are/were your parents? (Know their names, occupations, personalities, etc.)

My parents were Matudán and Goewin of Ardglenn. They were villeins, tenant farmers in the small village of Ardglenn northwest of Difelin. They were good folk and treated us well.

My father died in an accident during a drought when I was nine years old, and my mother encouraged me to flee from the small family farm to the city of Difelin at about that time.

My mother's still alive, and she lives with my sister, my brother, and their families now.

4. Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like?

I have three living siblings, while six other siblings died when I was younger.

The eldest, my brother Domhnall, is twenty-three years my senior. He went away with the army before I was born and we all thought he was lost, dead in the wars somewhere. I only met him for the first time when I was nine years old, after he returned to take up the role of patriarch of our family. He's a good man who means well.

My elder sister Enrhydreg is thirteen years my senior and she was like a mother to myself and my other sister, while our own parents were busy toiling in the fields. She married and moved away but stayed in touch while living apart and starting her own family.

My other sister, Ibormeith, is nine years my senior. She lives at home with my mother and has a family of her own now.

5. Where do you live now, and with whom? Describe the place and the person/people.

Now I live in the city of Difelin, in a flophouse in Fisherman's Row, a maze of streets in the Ifan District near the Shambles, between Vintner Lane and Fishamble Street. It's a small apartment with enough room for a bed and a small stove to keep the place warm in the wintertime. I have no family or friends who live with me.

6. What is your occupation?

By day, I'm a fisherman and a longshoreman, gathering fish or porting cargo. But by night, I'm a burglar, stealing into houses and shops and stealing away their valuables.

7. Write a full physical description of yourself. You might want to consider factors such as: height, weight, race, hair and eye color, style of dress, and any tattoos, scars, or distinguishing marks.

I'm a man of Gallvan ancestry, nineteen years old. I stand sixteen and a half hands high [5'6" tall] and weigh a bit more than nine and a half stone [135 pounds]. I have shoulder-length, dark blond hair that often gets into my eyes, and I often tuck it behind my ears to keep it out of my face. I have blue eyes, and white, pock-marked skin. I dress in the current local styles, blending into the city, and I have an unkempt appearance. I otherwise have no distinguishing marks, scars, injuries, handicaps, or tattoos.

8. To which social class do you belong?

I was born to common folk who were very well-off by the standards of their class, owning several acres of free land in addition to their tenant acreage. However, one of our recent ancestors was a notorious condemned criminal, which is an awful blot on the family honor.

9. Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses?

I do not. I am fit as a fiddle and ready for love.

10. Are you right- or left-handed?

I am right-handed.

11. Do you have any quirks, strange mannerisms, annoying habits, or other defining characteristics?

I tend to push my hair back out of my face and tuck it behind my ears.
