Mental characteristics
Personal history
Piers was born in a brothel on the river docks in the City of Tarimor. He was abandoned on the steps of the city's Grand Temple before he was a year old, and was raised on the Temple's precincts until he was old enough to be educated as a priest in the Faith. He was a very astute student, and excelled at his studies. His ability to calculate numbers and figures surprised and astounded his mentors even as a child, and his charm and obvious wit gained him quick promotion as a young novitiate.
Piers was sent to Southridge by the faith's Council of Hagiarchs during the initial construction of the Grand Temple at Southridge more than 45 years ago. Piers was simply a priest back then, with a particular ability to manage numbers and accounts and it was thought his skill would aid the construction effort. He is now the ranking clergyman in all the Kingdom of Lesser Imesse and an influential member of the King's High Council.
