====== Ernst ====== **Priest of Karash** Father Ernst was initiated into the ranks of [[orgs:temple_of_light]] following the death of his father in the year 441 [[lore:AH]]. His family had long revered [[lore:Karash]] as most fisherfolk, but most are too independent to worship in a temple of stone and wood. Ernst joined the temple to seek solace, but ended up a fervent believer. Several summers before he signed on with a mercenary company, so when offered a position with the [[lore:Karash#Order of the Storm]] he gladly accepted. Father Ernst was a large and barrel-chested man, his body as much fat as muscle even in his youth. Thick-necked, stubborn, and always ready to verbally or physical shove to get his way - he could be abrasive to those around him. He was never the most pious man and as the years grew between his father's death he reverted to his old self. He lost his hair years ago, but still maintains well-trimmed [[wp>mutton chop]]. ===== Statistics ===== * **Occupation:** Priest-Warrior * **Nationality:** [[orgs:dakarians]] * **Spouse:** None * **Issue:** None * **Parents:** Richard (398 - 441, M) and Lorina (401 - 460, F) * **Lifetime:** 417 - 462 AH * **Religion:** [[lore:Karash]] * **Ethnicity:** [[creatures:Human]] ===== History ===== Father Ernst was killed in 462 AH after he assassinated Master [[people:Ephesus]] of [[atlas:Tminir Tower]]. ===== Timeline ===== {{tag>human priest dakarian}}
