Character: Taymar Hallin
Taymar Hallin. Human. Aged 22 years. 170 lbs. Shaven head and multiple tattoos over various parts of the body, including his face.
The child, Taymar, never knew his parents. As an infant he was found upon the doorsteps of Ilmater’s Temple. The residing clerics took the child and raised him. Growing up in the temple, Taymar was a happy child and brought many a smile due to his gentle ways.
Not long after, he began his clerical studies. Watching his mentor and father-figure, Boaz the Poison Drinker, he learned how to heal the sick through herb lore and the blessings of the Broken God. By the examples of his elders, he was taught compassion and self-sacrifice. Daily he would wander the city and provide aid for those he found in need, be it providing a meal or healing an illness.
At age 20, as a tribute to Ilmater and his Elders, Taymar began to receive ritual tattoos. The patterns were literally carved into his skin with a bone chisel much the way designs are carved into wood. Various inks were placed in the cuts to create the tattoos. The process was incredibly painful for Taymar and it caused a lot of swelling in his face. So much swelling occurred that the he could not eat normally. So the clerics fashioned a funnel-like feeding tube to allow him to be nourished with some liquid food. Throughout his week-long test of endurance and suffering, Taymar uttered no word of complaint.
After healing from the tattooing ritual, Boaz, charged him with one final task – leave the Temple and find a new home to spread the comfort and mercies of Ilmater.
So now Taymar Hallin has come to the town of Norwick. He seeks to offer words of comfort and calming to those in pain, oppressed, or in great need. And he will offer healing he can to those who are sick. This he does in the name of the Broken God.
