Aramis was born to a human wizard father and an elven mother in Shadowdale in FR1461. He grew up in the Dales and the surrounding forests. His mother told him stories of ancient Myth Drannor and the many battles for control over the ancient elven city. He remembers clearly the fall of Thultanthar and the destruction of the 2 cities even though he was not in the region at the time. The tales and stories of various heroes grew in his heart and led him to become a bard and sing tales of those times. When he was 16 he began playing for local taverns and friends and family. He even learned a bit of magic from his father. He made a small name for himself in the Dale region over the next couple years.
When he turned 20 he learned of his father and mothers connection to an organization that was secretly investigating the noble class in order to put a stop to the corruption and evil being spread from Sembia and other cities around the Sea of Fallen Stars. He immediately joined the cause and became a spy for the organization, acting as a bard for noble parties and mingling with the upper class merchants and nobles. He would use his charm and his wit, as well as his good looks to woo noble ladies and infiltrate various wealthy families, all the while copying documents and evidence that could be used to force corruption out of the Dale and Cormanthor. He was doing good work for a good cause and he was enjoying himself, not to mention the women. He broke a lot of hearts and a few marriages in his time as a spy for the organization.
On a fateful night during one of his many parties when he was about 28 he was approached by the most gorgeous elven woman he had ever seen. He quickly won her over and wooed her, or so he thought. He spent the next few months with her, going everywhere she went, he was always by her side. He would still listen and learn about everyone he met, but nothing seemed to matter to him as much as she did. He grew to love her in a short amount of time. He decided then and there that he would be with her forever. One morning he awoke to her standing over him, watching him. She told him she was returning home and that he could not come with her. As his heart was breaking she explained to him that she was the Goddess Venestra and that she had come to him because he intrigued her and she was impressed with his charm and wit and thought he would be a fun break for her. She told him that she chose him to be one of her chosen on the material plane and act for her when she needed him and one day he would be able to return to her side. He was still madly in love with her and quickly agreed. Before she left she gifted him with great power to aid his endeavors and a companion to assist in his schemes and relay her wishes to him. She summoned a sprite named Nyx to stay with him always.
He spent the next few years continuing to assist the organization that his mother and father were members of as well as performing any duties asked of him by Venestra. She mostly wanted him to find and discover any threats to the elves of the realm and Seelie Court. He learned of the Unseelie Court and the Queen of Air and Darkness, and their attempts to infiltrate the Seelie Court or corrupt various nobles and fey. During this time he discovered corruption in his own organization that spread deep. Learning that he inadvertently helped the Unseelie court at times he quit the organization after killing a few of its members. This cost the life of his father and the scarring of his mother. Luckily she was able to escape to Semberholme and lives there with the rest of the elves from Myth Drannor as a small time herbalist.
Currently he continues to work for Venestra, and he still loves her. He uses his talents to help people wherever he can and put a stop to corruption and evil. Nyx is loyal and loves him as much as he loves his Goddess; she helps him in his cons and deceptions and keeps him safe. She relays her Goddesses words to him faithfully.
I havent fleshed everything out, but I feel its pretty complete. Any input is welcome, I also need a name and a little more backstory for "the organization". Thanks for reading
