I was given the name of Turin I was born in the Spring Twenty Two Years Ago My father and mother both brought me into the Human World in the Empire's grasp, but I ran to the Varden
My mother once called me handsome, but then again, she calls my dad the same thing, so I think I remind her of my father and I don't think I want to be handsome in her eyes. I know most would want to be considered handsome or pretty in the eyes of their mother, but not me, I will pass completely. Anyway, I am about 6'2", so I guess you could say I am pretty tall, but I have seen a few taller people and elves also. I have dark brown eyes, coming from someplace, but I never really looked at my parents eyes, so I don't know if my mom had the eyes or my father. I have long black hair, mom always loved it, but she tried to keep it short, I hated it short, so I let it grow out when I left my home. I normally keep my hair pulled back in a braid, about like my two sisters do. How do you think they learned, I was the oldest. My skin is tan, showing the years that I stayed outside working.
I normally wear a pair of dark brown tunic, which has long sleeves, however, I sometimes go shirtless. I hate shirts, only wearing them when I am in the public or meeting and sometimes not even in the publis. Sometimes I am shirtless in the streets. I wear a pair of brown pants, which are pretty baggy, but they are held by a belt most the time. I like my normal clothing, unlike my family that are all about richness, in my opinion. My sister, Nayeli might be a little less loving of that richness, but I am not sure of that Leilani, my youngest sister, she might like the wealth. I have a brown wool cloak, which keeps the rain off me and I normally wear it a lot during the winter time, but during the summer, not so much.
When I was younger, my father had three blades made for me by the best. Two daggers and a sword, which I just loved. The sword was made by a smith and his slave elf. The Pommels of all three blades are silver, pure silver and I kept them all polished and looking very nice. They are always on me, one of my daggers I keep in my boot and the other on my waist. My sword is always kept where I can get to is.
I once heard someone call me Sweet, but even I wonder who is lying and who is telling the truth. I know who I am, and I know I can be kind to everyone I met, but even I know that I have a hot temper and that I have many bad things about me. I am always wondering why people say I am a good guy, I might work for the Varden, but I am not a good guy, I just know what side is better then the other. I can be a true jackass and most people know this about me. I am always looking for someone to see that about me, but there is just something in me that makes me show compassion for others. I have no idea why, so don't ask why.
If there is one things I find annoying it is those people who are heartless, about like my sister, Nayeli. She says she has a heart, but once you looked at her, you can tell she is heartless. She can kill without thinking twice, I could not, well, let me take that back. When it comes to empire soldiers, I could kill easy, but then I thought about the fact that I took someone's son or daughter away from them. It is easy to find myself thinking about them sometimes, I even I have nightmares about the younger men, the older men, I could careless. I have been women and men fight in this war and I find myself being very kind to the woman on my side.
I doubt I could be kind of my sister though, she is a heartless beast and I think I would be very happy when I saw her dead. I like the idea, but even I know I would be very upset once she was dead. She is still my sister, no matter what I say.
So my father brought me into the world, where the men of Urû'baen were leaving left and right to join the Empire's forces or running away to Surda. It was just another life in this land, of course, I had a upper hand advantage, I was royal... My mother had been the daughter of another Royal being, so she was set from the beginning and my father worked his way from foot soldier to knight and then asked for her hand in marrage, however, he was nothing but a man who wanted women for anything. My mother quit caring after a while, but she still loved my father for some weird reason. After awhile, I, Turin came into the world. Four years later came Nayeli and then seven years after her came Leilani, my youngest sister, who I love greatly. My name meant dragon and Nayeli meant love. Leilani's own meant flower and she was my favorite out of my sisters. She was the youngest.
I remember when my sister was fighting over earing dresses I was learning the basic of being a great warrior. My father, as stupid as he was, wanted me to be a great warrior and become great friends with the king of the empire. But as I grew up, I saw how wrong thee empire was. I was learning from a great swordsman, but he had a elf in his presence and every time I was with them, the elf entered my own mind. We would talk the whole time and he would help me in my lesson. When I was eighteen and my sister, Nayeli was fourteen, the elf told me about the Varden, showed me when the King had killed a rider for his dragon. I knew I did not want to fight for the Empire and I ran during the night, taking my father's best horse and run south with my stuff. I never knew what happened to that elf, I can only hope that he got away. I heard that my sister wanted me dead and that she had also started to learn from my old master and was becoming a great assassin.
I knew I was a great fighter and I believe I could of easily taken her on, however, I have yet to see her come around my home in Surda and I doubt she ever will until she comes in with a huge army. I did only hope for one thing, that my youngest sister would not be a empire girl, that she would be smart. I lived in the Boer Mountains with the Varden for a while and then Eragon came around and I got to help them out. I got a home in the Capital of Surda, since I did have some kind of Royalty in my blood and I helped the Varden in more then fighting ways. I had money, I could hlep them out big time.
