How They Change: Initially Raigho has a great deal of emotional issues and instability, overtime he learns to balance himself more and what kind of life her really wants for himself.
Why You Love Them: I created Raigho as a sort of anti self insert. He’s opposite me in so many ways and it’s just fun to go kinda wild with him.
Nonchalant, level-headed, cocky, and somewhat cynical, Raigho is a very goal oriented individual who is very well aware of the skills he possesses and how to use them most efficiently. He frequently finds himself doing whatever it takes to achieve victory, through noble actions or not.
In addition to his typical demeanor, Raigho does possess a slightly flirtatious side. However, he often finds himself burdened with heavy fears of abandonment.
Backstory:
Raigho was born as the result of an affair between his father, a wealthy exporter in the moon sugar agricultural industry in Elsweyr and his mother an extremely mysterious yet ruthless individual. He lived the early part of his life with his mother, never meeting his father who was aware of his birth but had no contact with him. The circumstances in which he was initially raised were less than ideal as his mother, Kava, never wanted children and often distanced herself to the point of neglect from her son.
This continued until Kava seemingly had enough and brought Raigho to his father in Reaper’s March. While the young Raigho was initially eager and nervous to meet his father the moment quickly soured as his mother simply wanted to discard him on his other parent. When Raigho’s parents saw each other again for the first time in years, his mother was straight to the point and told his father she had no interest in this child and he could either look after him from now own or abandon him as well. She really didn’t care. Raigho’s father was unwilling to simply abandon his child so he agreed to look after him. As Kava walked away Raigho ran to her looking up at her with tears in his eyes and when she looked down all he saw was an expression of distain and without saying a word Raigho’s mother walked away.
In addition to meeting his father for the first time Raigho was also introduced to his step-mother and half-brother, and after that day his new life began and unfortunately it wasn’t a drastic improvement. Raigho’s father was incredibly wealthy and truthfully Raigho had everything he needed provided for him but was ultimately emotionally neglected. Raigho’s father was a business man who lived a rather hedonistic life and did not focus too heavily on his duties as a father. Raigho’s step mother was a rather miserable woman trapped in a loveless marriage with an unfaithful husband and often tried to escape he troubles through excessive drinking. While she was aware of her husbands adultery, the arrival of a child resulting from on of his affairs was a particularly bitter note and she often treated Raigho with contempt.
Despite being the same age and growing up alongside each other Raigho and his half-brother, Qa’ara, were never particularly close not only stemming from their stark contrast in personality but also from that fact that Qa’ara was aware of the disaster his family was and viewed Raigho as a walking symbol of their father’s infidelity and in some ways blamed him for the dysfunction of his family.
Raigho was essentially left to do what ever he wanted as a child and teenager and became a bit of a problem child especially in his teenage years. He often found himself in trouble and even occasionally being brought home by the guards. Fortunately for him his father’s wealth often allowed him to escape any lasting punishment. However his luck didn’t last forever did last forever. Once night Raigho found himself in over his head running from the guards in a situation he knew he couldn’t get out of. While trying to escape he suddenly found himself pulled into an alley way and face to face with Speaker Terenus. Terenus informed him that the dark brotherhood had been watching him for some time and knew that he held remarkable potential and that Raigho had a choice he could choose to come with Terenus and escape a life that brought him no satisfaction and learn what he was truly capable of or he could leave this alley, face the guards chasing him, and hope for the best.
Ultimately, Raigho chose to follow Terenus, leaving what family he had without so much as a goodbye. Raigho and Terenus left Reaper’s March and traveled for several days until they reached the Gold Coast and it was there Raigho became an initiate of the Dark Brotherhood at the age of 16. Raigho’s first night in the sanctuary was something he’d never forget as he lay awake unable to sleep and crushed by a fear of the life and future he had just set for himself. Curiously, he did not think of the friends and family he had left behind in Reaper’s March, all he could think of was his mother.
Raigho’s training began immediately the following morning and the process was harsh. He often found himself training alone under the watch of some other assassin as he was the only initiate in the sanctuary until after several months another initiate arrived. A young Khajiit girl, named Mavari. The two were now expected to train alongside one another, but Mavari was rather timid at first and had difficulty adapting to the training, something Raigho noticed. In an effort to reach out to his new comrade he offered to show her how to hold her sword and from that moment on, the two became close friends.
Raigho and Mavari remained in the dark brotherhood for the next ten years and becoming two of the organizations most proficient assassins. However, despite Raigho’s skill as an assassin he came to find himself doubting his convictions and often felt a strong sense of guilt as he fulfilled his contracts. This feeling was often repressed but his doubts of the organization he served continued.
However, this service was not meant to last as was directed towards a mysterious hooded figure who prepositioned him with a contract. Unexpectedly, Raigho found himself ambushed and incapacitated by several worm cult operatives. Moving in and out of consciousness, Raigho found himself in being dragged along in chains before laying on an altar looking up at a high elf necormancer, Mannimarco. Before he could fully process what was happening Raigho felt the pain of a knife stabbed into his heart and suddenly woke up under an ominous blue sky, Coldharbour.
Raigho was well trained but no amount of training can prepare someone for the horrors that await mortals in Coldharbour. Raigho was skilled enough to occasionally escape whatever facilities held him but he often found himself in shackles or on a tortures rack yet again. Over the course of the next three years, Raigho suffered a seemingly endless amount of torment and each time he suffered yet another mortal wound he prayed for the release of aetherius but found himself revived in Coldharbour.
During the course of his three years in Coldharbour, Raigho met several other damned souls and made several allies but overtime many of them either succumbed to the horrors of oblivion or found themselves transforming into feral soul shriven. However, out of all the temporary allies he made in Oblivion the most notable was none other than Lyris Titanborn, who would eventually helped lead him to his freedom. During the eventual prison break Raigho found himself jumping into a dark anchor mooring and being transported to the coast of Kenarthi’s Roost. Laying down on the sand and letting the waves wash over him, all Raigho could do was look up at the calm blue sky and a warm sun and laugh.
