Biographical Information:

Name: Richard Pembleton, Jr.
Age: 34
Race: Human
Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: Brown
Weight: 182 lbs
Height: 5'11"
Occupation: Accountant

Personality:

Richard Pembleton has been described as "dry to a fault", possessing the sort of humor that makes those around him constantly question whether or not the man is actually joking or being serious. His monotone inflection often makes the accountant's mood hard to decipher, and while friendly, Pembleton is often dismissive of persons with whom he is not personally associated.

Physical Description:

Pembleton is your atypical caucasion male - average height, average weight, brown eyes, brown hair. He is fit in the sense that he exercises enough to avoid gaining excess weight, but not so much as to maintain a cut, trim figure. There is really nothing descript or unique about Pembleton that would draw one's eye in a crowd - except maybe the mutton-chop styled sideburns he sports alongside his cap and spectacles.

Skills:

Bold Negotiator
With his network of connections in the finance world, Pembleton is well attuned to the day-to-day costs of goods and services. As such, he has a particular knack for spotting bargains and rip-offs, typically managing to aquire what he wants for 10% less than most.

((Applicable only to normal Bazaar purchases - Skill cannot be upgraded beyond 10%))

Financier
Pembleton has made a career out of turning his past experiences into monetary gains. As such, as he gains experience, Richard can learn to gain money at an increased rate. At his current level, Pembleton earns 10% more GP from completed threads than the average character.

Equipment/Inventory:

Lucky Tweed Suit: Pembleton's signature attire. Comprised of a brown tweed jacket and vest with matching slacks, Richard generally pairs the tweed portion of his outfit with a white collared shirt and brown bowler cap. While the accountant considers the suit to have prophetic, almost mystical qualities, it is in fact just a normal tweed suit.

52 Downtown Avenue: A narrow, two-storied building in Radasanth's downtown area, near the Bazaar. The lower-level of the building Richard rents out to a middle-aged couple who run their own bakery out of the street-level storefront. The upstairs is a loft-style apartment that Pembleton has converted into his "office". He conducts all of his business from here.

((Strict zoning regulations surrounding the Downtown area prohibit Richard from selling the building.))

History:

Richard was born the third son of Donald and Marie Pembleton in Radasanth's middle-class "Elmhollow" neighborhood. After a mundane and eventless childhood, Richard attended primary school until the age of 12. After primary school a young Mr. Pembleton was boarded away to a private secondary instition in Raiaera, going on to attend Istien University on a full scholarship. At the age of 22 he graduated with honors from the University with a Bachelors in Banking and Business Finance.

After taking a year off to travel the world, Richard made his way back to his hometown of Radasanth to establish himself in the business realm. He and a couple of his classmates who also made the move back to Radasanth founded the "Moloney, Pembleton & Zan" accounting firm, through which they each became independently wealthy. After several years the three partners went seperate ways, and Pembleton used his personal fortune to purchase a building in Radasanth's downtown...


I understand that the skills in this profile are a little different than those in most profiles, so I encourage the moderator who takes this profile to get in touch with me via PM with any questions/concerns they may have.
