History: Seth was born in a small village in Saldear near the Blightborder, to a loving family. His mother was a weaver and his father a soldier in the army who taught Seth the basics of sword fighting. He had two friends - Cain and Garion - who used to get him into trouble every so often. Life was good, he Lived in a small farmhouse and his job there was to get the firewood from the Storage shed near the house. Seth and his friends used to get up to all sorts of things from steeling the odd pie from under some farmwifes nose to letting the chickens out of their coops, then laughing as the farmers ran around trying to catch them (the chickens and Seth & Co).

When Seth was 5 his sister Edra was born and he had to stop his escapades to help look after her. She used to follow him around everywhere - yet another reason not to get into so much trouble. Seth loved his sister and beat the crap out of anybody who bulled her. In the end people left her alone accept to be friends and it stayed that way with him gaurding her like a Warder to an Aes Sedai. She sometimes joked about that, saying she should go to the White Tower then bond him. Yet she couldn't know she would be going to Tar Valon and so would he.

At about 15 he signed on as a stable hand at the local inn to help the family... well, that and the lovely barmaid Evelyn who was about his age :evil. Seth tried to form a relationship with the barmaid but because of his poor social skills failed. when he finished up at night Seth and his friends would drink quite execivly usually waking the next day with huge hangovers. The village Wise Woman just laughed at them and told them that they shouldn't have drank so much when they asked for a hangover cure.

When he was 17 the Village was attacked by Darkfriends and Trollics. They came in the night, probably looking to fill some cook pots and the Darkfriends most likely saw the opportunity to kill the odd villager who they didn't like. Seth was in the stables of the inn tending the horses when he heard the commotion. He stepped out to see what was going on when he saw the trollics and Darkfriends burning houses and killing entire families in the streets. worried for his family he ran home only to see his mother and farther brutally murdered. At that sight he dispaired, screaming he suddenly felt an avalanche of fire an ice raging through him and he felt more alive than he ever had. in his towering rage - enhanced by the extacy of the power he released a wave of fire incinerating the Darkfriends and trollics, but he couldn't save his mother and farther.

He found his sister amongst the servivers of the massacre and she helped him through his depression. Seth retreated inside himself, plagued by nightmares of that night, he vowed vengeance on all Darkfriends and Shadowspawn :AAAHHH!!: . on his eaghteenth naming day Seth and his sister left for Tar Valon and The Black Tower so he could train to become an Asha man and she an Aes Sadai

Hello! Welcome to the site! :D It is customary for us to look over bios and two admins have to approve them before you are elligable to be raised. There are a few problems with your bio that need to be rectified before we continue.

The first thing I noticed was that it is entirely too short. Your bio is supposed to be a catalouge of your entire life before you come to the towers. There is so little in the bio in terms of his personality that it is basically a time line of events in his life. This is good, but we want to know how he reacts to them, detailed! Details are important. Your bio, I always say, should be around 2 pages minimum in microsoft word, and I'm talking the story, not the stats.

Your talents are fine, the events in his life are fine. His strength in the one power is not. That does not properly reflect the channeling system we have in place here. Please take a look at our channeling system (found in the announcements forum).

He is too young when he first starts channeling. Males usually don't manifest until much later in their lives, 18 at the youngest, females are much younger.

If I missed anything I'm sure I or Sapphira will catch it in the next look over. Don't let this discourage you at all, we're always harsh on biographies, because they are so important. So anyway, if you have any questions, you can ask myself or Sapphira and we will be happy to get back to you shortly.

I think you have some good ideas Seth, but its still too short. Take a look at some of our approved bio's to get a good idea of what we're looking for. Look for the ~ symbol, that indicates an approved bio.
