			On the surface, Manain is a boisterous and outspoken presence. He is like the mountain stream, fast moving and unpredictable. He frequently breaches good manners and shows a strong iconoclastic streak. Many like him though, for his open nature reveals a kind heart, and a mischief and cynicism that others find entertaining. It can make enemies too though; Manain is not the most tactful of men, and can be very confrontational. His ignorance can often end up irritating people as well.

			Yet beneath the waves, there are often unseen currents, strong and treacherous. Manain has those too for he is a product of his House, more than he or many realise. Ambition, competitiveness, ruthlessness; those are the traits of a good Peleps. Despite himself, his cynicism often leads to a calculating view of the world. Yet if he hides that subconsciously behind a casual demeanour, so too does he hide an idealistic loyalty to the Realm and a quiet but sincere religious belief.

			And right at the bottom lie his deepest convictions and instincts. The most likely to be seen is the whirlpool; roaring his anger, breaking apart resistance, sublimely confident in his ability to physically best any challenge.

			In a house of schemers, intriguers and manipulators, Peleps Manain counts some of the finest as close relatives. He was expected, like all of his siblings before him, to be intellectually brilliant and devious, ready to be launched into business or politics after polishing at the Spiral Academy.

			This represented a problem for Manain.

			From an early age, it was painfully clear his gifts did not run towards academia. However, this did lead to him discovering one talent. His tutors tried to correct him with beatings, but Manain soon discovered an incredible resilience, both physical and mental. Undeterred by punishment, Manain would run wild instead, as hyperactive as a spring tide. In an attempt to calm his constant mischief and pranks, his tutors filled as much of his time with Martial Arts as possible. Manain absorbed the lessons like a sponge, but never got the discipline. His parents packed him off to Primary School after their third, unsatisfactory meeting. Unfortunately, Manain continued to be unruly and unresponsive to learning and discipline alike, although a penchant for stealing and cheating hid this on his test scores. Once again, his only real talent seemed to be Martial Arts. Manain exalted young when under attack from Mnemon Argo, a bully who had already exalted himself. The power of awakened essence completely freed Manain from the leash. No beating could affect him, no lock deter him and Manain would frequently escape to go visit local dockside taverns.

			His parents watched this with alarm. Clearly, it would cost too much in bribes to get him into the Spiral Academy. The Cloister was mentioned, but his mother could not stomach them and they could not stomach her. Then his sister suggested the House of Bells. They didn't like the idea, but it was better than any other they had, and if they did not act soon he was bound for the Untamed Storm. It took a bit of bribery, but at least cheating had kept Manain's marks respectable, and he certainly has the physique for a soldier - so here he is, the newest Admiral to be...

Appearance

	== Appearance ==		== Appearance ==

			Tall but not unduly so by Dragonblooded standards, Peleps Manain is lithe but broad in the shoulder, all iron sinew and hard angles. His face is averagely handsome, but his body is beautiful, the happy by-product of countless hours of training it as a weapon. His skin has something of a blue tinge, his eyes the shimmering grey-blue of a blowing sea, and he smells faintly of sea-salt; Manain's breeding is strong. He wears his dark hair in braids, pushed back from his face and reaching down to his shoulders.

			Manain's dress taste is somehow both showy and practical. Clothing tends to be figure-hugging or revealing, his choice in colours loud, and he often wears jewellery. In particular he favours ear rings, having got his ears pierced on a particularly wild excursion to the docks that earned him a particular level of ire from his mother. However, they almost always allow him a free range of movement, and usually offer some form of protection.
