Story: He grow up in Venice as son of a sea trader. His mother died when giving the birth to his only full blood related sister 2-3 years after his birth and so he never know her. As the 2nd son of his father, who had 5 wives in his live, he wouldn't inherit the business. Already early in his live he joined his father on his travel. When he was 16 years old he was send to the University of Bologna but because of his problems with the disputes there he only managed the Baccalaureus. Afterwards he stayed for some years as lay neophyte in a monastery. Once he returned to Venice he had to learn how to fight as his father want to send him in his stead on some trade missions. When his older brother took over the lead he was paid out and now mostly earned his money from teaching or writing books. His main interest during this time was the written teaching of the classic Greek and later the newer Arabic literature. To keep his live style and to get access to some books he also did some sea trips for his older brother. After his wife deceased there was nothing left that made him stay in Venice and so when recruiter for the 3. crusade knocked at his door he joined them. This decision ended up to be the worst he did so far in his live as not only the group had big problems to get enough provisions for everyone many of the group not even had a weapon in their hand not to talk about fighting experience. So he ended up as one of the leader and instructor of this team but despite that the group was nearly wiped out during one of the fights. He could consider him self lucky to only have lost his left ear but otherwise got out unharmed out of this. More shocking to him was that within the enemy warriors was clearly a holy person fighting for them. After he recovered he decided to settle down in Thessalonica. To establish his new live and to borrow the power of other to eliminate a devil in the form of a catholic priest he had to take many favor that he have to pay back at some point. His drive now changed to eliminate the real evil in this world thanks to the experience of the past years.[/code]
I current think about replacing Second Sight (Divine) with Strong Angelic Heritage as it would give a indirect immunity to the gift in trade for no longer freely can go to different covenants. In https://forum.atlas-games.com/t/divine-might-aging-character-advancement/11598/1 I put up the question how divine might affect a char.
The char is still missing 10, maybe 20 years but sure no more and the aim is that he is a good teacher (a score of 20 in teaching 1 to 1) for many different ability up to 5. (Yes he will gain a other +1 size for a total of +2 then)
Things that I'm unsure are:
Is Veneto really its own language or is it Italian with Veneto specialization?
The Size adjustments given in HoH:MC are fine to use here also? (-1 Qik +2 Str each wound level damage range is increased by 1)

Given that we have a proposed 100 year-old companion, how do we feel about companions with longevity rituals? Because without a LR, no companion is going to be able to hold a candle to Salvatore in age.
