===The Five Questions=== #) '''Why are you devoted to keeping this sub-House alive against all odds?''' House Taric accepted Korel with open arms when the Realm as a whole looked at him with scepticism. The warmth, the family and the sense of belonging is something he has never felt before, and something he will never give up. Besides, it's not like there's anywhere else he can go... #) '''The Dynasty isn't all about family. What loyalties and causes compete with your loyalty to House Peleps Taric?''' If anything it is the plight of the people and careful words in Korel's ear could easily awaken a hero of the lower classes within him. So far that hero lies buried below the comfort of being a dynast and the belonging of his new family. #) '''In what ways are you products of the Dynasty?''' He isn't. No matter how he may deny it, claim otherwise or try to fit in Korel is not truly a dynast. He is accepted, even popular, with the community, but he is still basically an outsider. He dreams of it, however, as he dreams of the Realm and its glories and how it could unite this fractured world into a new Shogunate. #) '''What have you openly achieved in the past century that makes you a worthy subject for historians of the next Age to investigate thoroughly?''' The Man From Lookshy some would call him, the boy who turned away from the 7th Legion and in to the arms of the Realm. Fooled? Perhaps, but it became a spectacular event and many dramas would be based on this single event and its consequences. Apart from that at this point in time his career has but started, in a way he is the "third generation of adventure", following in the footsteps of Taric and Sikandi. Travelling the Threshold looking for trouble and riches is a great way of getting written into the story books. He has also been marked as one of the Realms foremost experts within Magitech lore and some consider him a vital person for the restoration (and complete reconstruction, perhaps!) for the First Age industry of the Realm. He has already managed to aquire and restore four functional warstriders with which he has equipped his personal fang. Further artifacts, many magitech, he has found and restored to functionality has earned him large amounts of money which he has invested in a prosperous weapons manufacture building large-scale weapons for use on ships and other warmachines. #) '''What weaknesses do you possess that aren't just personal failings, but could be exploited by your enemies to cost you the Game of Thrones? What are the fields of engagement where you can't just apply Game Theory analysis, but instead will act against your own interests?''' Korel is an outsider, a traitor, a 7th Legionnaire and a slave. This is the heritage that he must carry with him, and no matter how open in his support of the Realm he may be people will still mistrust him. In the wake of the admiratious talk about his exploits in the salons of the dynasty there is aways the rumors. He turned on his country once, would he do it twice? Why does he never speak of his childhood? Is he actually a cleverly placed spy from Lookshy? These are but some of the least wild ideas that fly around behind his back. The issue of Lookshy itself is a complex one. He has almost consistently hated the Seventh Legion from the day he was born, yet deep within him something, something small and something he tries to ignore has awoken. A longing home. Perhaps it was only his unfortunate youth that caused him to be so resentful, perhaps he had been manipulated, perhaps the Seventh Legion isn't so bad. He pushes it back every time it rears its ugly head, yet for every injustice he is forced to witness within the Realm that tiny weight on his heart grows.
