UZMAT RICMAN
Name: Uzmat Ricman
Age: 41
Birth Season: summer
Rank: Marshal
Occupation: Marshal of Roville
Kingdom: Rodale
Body description: Uzmat is tan skinned, brown earthy toned eyes with little flecks of lighter brown within, he is lean and muscular standing at 5’9”. He takes very good care of his body physically, despite the scar he gained from his Uncle across his chest. He oddly prefers brighter colors (gold, yellow, and green) but most of his attire is modified in some way with light pieces of tough hide leathers or light pieces of armor.
Personality: Uzmat is cautious, intelligent, ruthless, and easily capable of unspeakable cruelty. He has a very calm and calculating personality, never publicly expressing anger, happiness, or sadness. Politically astute, he frequently offers the most pragmatic advice to those who seek it. With regard to his siblings, Uzmat is in better control of his emotions, whereas he always appears calculating and stoic, repressing his emotions and desires for most of his life for the sole objections of the greater good. Even when fully prepared to vent his emotions, he is able to retain his composure and dignity. Uzmat has very little patience for false politeness that is expected of a lord in court. Uzmat is also popular amongst his people despite his hard edges, they respect and fear him. Due to his cold and blunt nature, he inspires deep loyalty from his peers and he does not seek the respect or admiration of the people, it is expected. He has faith that his men will follow him and die for him anyway because of his birthright. Uzmat is also reliant on fear to keep his men in check and considers public displays of kindness a weakness leaders should not possess. He has a very conservative, patrician set of social values in his household but also believes the strong will always prevail amongst his blood.
Magic: Keeper - Proficient Chapter
Combat experience: Uzmat's Father had a blade in his hand the moment the boy could pick one up, a boy who would either take his Father's place as Marshal by either blood or death. Uzmat was five when he took to being trained in the proficiency of swordsmanship, he put him on a horse and made Uzmat the head of a cavalry unit by the age thirteen, and drilled in the boy's head strategy on a battlefield. When Uzmat learned something he learned fast and hard, then when his Father felt satisfied they moved on to learn new things. Uzmat may be a skilled horseback riding warrior but his skill with a longsword in close quarters combat is often talked about, some say he is the best swordsman in Idrenor.

History:
Uzmat is the oldest of six boys between Hashyum and Vinsyett Ricman. Hashyum had just killed the current Marshal, Right Hand, and Warlord at that time installing other Ricman's in those positions a month before Uzmat was born. It was rumored that when Hashyum looked upon Uzmat the day he was born and declared, ‘This will be the man to kill me, and unite Roville through blood and steel’. Uzmat wasn't only raised to be a warrior his Father indoctrinated future leadership skills he followed his Father's every step and learned how to be ruthless.
Uzmat was sixteen when his Uncle Vaytim, Hasyum's brother, insulted the teenager's Father. When the insult spread Uzmat found it so disrespectful he challenged his Uncle to a fight to the death, Uzmat gained a large scar down his chest but was victorious in the fight claiming his Uncle's head and the Warlord position. As a bonus Uzmat was allowed to select his own bride, he picked a cousin Elspeth Ricman to be his bride. For the next several years Uzmat and Elspeth had four children, the third died a year after their birth from a disease Uzmat was the one to end the child's suffering, and their last child was a daughter. Uzmat also had a slew of bastard children, all at the approval and support of Elspeth.
Uzmat, like his Father, worshiped their grimoires, they would meet and pray to his Father's grimoire once or twice a day, always before meetings, and before and after training sessions. Their belief is true Ricman power and authority rested within their possession of their grimoire. And it was within that belief that corrupted Uzmat and gave him the thirst for more power.
When Uzmat was twenty five he found peace to be the influence of contentment, he took up against his Father for the title of Marshal and to gain possession of his Father's grimoire. In an intense six hour fight Father and son fought before Uzmat fulfilled his Father's prophecy by beheading him. Sixteen years later The Kinslayer has ruled mercilessly over the lands of Roville, sickened by the faith in his grimoire Uzmat has sought not the conquering of other kingdoms but the unity of Rodale…then Almeran..then the world.
