Physical Description

Image

One can look at Deitrick and considerably see him as plain; ordinary with hardly any real overpowering features to present. He is a regular man that stands around five foot and eleven inches tall, with hair a rich oakley color and eyes that are a crisp hazel green. Quite often he keeps both hair and facial in check, making sure they're styled sufficiently for the standards of society. Currently his form is a combination of lean muscle and fat, as he hasn't spent quite as much time honing his physical stature.

When out in public Deitrick usually wears the simpler styles of fashion, though might often change it up to something fitting for utility also. Occasionally one might see a smile on his face, usually when it's around people he personally knows. He does however tend to switch between a stroll or a stride every once in a while, overall he is just as plain as any simple man could appear in the eyes of others.
Personality

Image

Deep beneath that gruff and plain exterior is the mind of a intellectual, if not struggling individual, fixated on a personal vendetta against the supernatural entities of the world. Deitrick's a soul that is typically calm and quiet and while he may project a minor solemn aura, he is actually quite a friendly and loyal person with a penchant for history. He is mortally fascinated with the stories of old as well as intrepidly curious, but overall quite a conflicted sort with spite towards the unknown.

His greatest prejudice is mostly against Galdori, but overall any magic users, as he is under the impression as to why his beloved is deceased. This has created an innate and driven ambition for revenge against the ones responsible, thus Deitrick wants to become not just a researcher; but a hunter of the supernatural in the world.

Backstory

Prologue
text
Married to a beautiful woman in Mers, Deitrick spent a majority of his time researching historical sights. However his wife shared a keen interest in magic, Mona, and the supernatural entities that existed in the world. Research proved to be their shared passion and mainly what brought them together, however one day Deitrick had learned his wife to be missing without a trace. Without any real clues as to what caused her disappearance, time eventually determined the woman to be deceased; even though there was not a body to be found.

Now driven by an intense hatred against the thing she loved most, Deitrick has his mind set on learning what became of her; the only hint found in her notes leading him to Vienda, Anaxas. What he'll discover here remains to be seen, but it is Deitrick's goal to solve the mystery behind his wife's disappearance; as well as hunt down the very thing that allegedly killed her.

Birth/Childhood
text
Deitrick was born to a wonderful pair of parents that lived in the city of Mers in Bastia, with an older brother several years ahead of him no less. Their mother, Adalynn Godfrey, was a rising expeditionist while their father, Walter Godfrey, spent time as a private tutor during their visits. Quite often the boys, Benton and Deitrick, found themselves caught up the aid of their parents research.

Both boys were eager assistants to the effort of researching history and geographical locations throughout the Ten Kingdoms. However there eventually came a time where their parents struggled, and the marriage no longer felt as unified as it once did. Adalynn struggled quite often because of this strain, until one sad day the mental pain she'd endured proved too much to bear. When the Godfrey family lost their avid expeditionist, the father no longer felt himself capable of raising the two boys alone.

Adolescence
text
A great deal of Deitrick's later childhood was spent in an orphanage, until eventually he and his brother slipped away one 'destined' night. At the attempt to regain a bit of what they lost, the brothers set out to continue what their mother could not. Hopeful to make a name for themselves with a new surname, Borteillo, which came from one avid adventurer and researcher their own mother idolized.

Their intention was to carry on her legacy until destiny created a split in their path, with Deitrick left to fend for himself after a significant event took place. Eventually in time he managed to build up a reputation as a freelance tutor, able to provide personal education to those who wanted to learn how to read and write. In doing this he'd met many interesting people, all who were interested in a variety of different things.

Early Adulthood
text
Becoming a private tutor led Deitrick to discover a variety of ways in teaching others, while he enjoyed teaching what he learned growing up as a boy; he had to quickly learn adaptation in order to sufficiently teach other subjects as well. Needless to say his material brought him to encounter many interesting people, one of them being the woman he fell in love with before too long. As they spent more time together they naturally grew closer to one another, brought together by similar passions in the field of research.

Eventually however it started to appear as though she were more and more distant, always preoccupied with something to interact with Deitrick any. Until one day finally she had vanished out of the blue, and therefore left Deitrick alone in the world. While grief struck him at the potential loss of his wife, anger developed towards what could've potentially taken her from him; and that was the mysteries of the supernatural entities in the world. Anger turned into hate and with it, sparked the intention to act out against it in turn. Thus Deitrick dug up what remained of his wife's research material, and therefore found a trail to start with in Vienda.

After the move from Bastia to Anaxas, Deitrick used what was left to open a business up in the city. From then on he's dedicated time to picking up the next clue of the trail, as well as secretly gear up for the potential hunt to come.
