Personality
Ferne is very religious, even before he was a reserved and kind person. His religious views are extreme but he doesn't mean any harm. Ferne honestly believes in the words of his faith and that ultimately if you follow its teachings it's better for everyone. He doesn't like conflict and he's a strong calming force. His religion makes him hated by everyone though Ferne doesn't intent to shove it in the faces of others. A quiet man most of the time but no coward, his unwavering character is admirable. Deep down there's a cheeky side to him but he keeps it strongly in check. Many may think his strict control over his behavior means he has a life that lacks passion or indulgence and he's secretly depressed. However Ferne couldn't be happier with the life he's chosen. He likes to slip his religion into conversations but rather than reeling it off like quotations uses a more subtle and personal method that's endearing. He's very likable and alone but never lonely as long as he has his faith.

Background/History
Ferne's family lived in Yova but after losing their house and being unable to buy a new one they did the unthinkable and made a deal with the Vuki. They got a house near the Yova-Monsterville border on the Monsterville side but had to do tasks for the Vuki that can't be described as anything but evil. Even after paying off the house they continued to work for the Vuki to get money so they could live an easy life. Following a shift in politics in the area the Vuki were pushed out giving Ferne's family some freedom. However Ferne's family decided they liked their new extravagant life style and actively sought out the Vuki to do business with them again to maintain their money flow. This tipped Ferne over the edge and after an explosive argument with his family he was kicked out for protesting against the Vuki. Ferne moved north and some time later his family moved back to Yova. However Ferne's family were unable to keep up with the Vuki's ever increasing demands and found themselves in a spiral of debt as they stopped working for the Vuki. The Vuki squeezed every last penny out of them leaving them homeless, whereas Ferne was making a nice profit running a general store south of Olrit. The Vuki decided to put the squeeze on Ferne and when he didn't play ball they kidnapped him. Ferne dpent some time with the Vuki as a slave and after a long period of defiance he was eventually sold to a Vuki family outside Olrit. However this time it was different as this family treated him very well. Ferne began to like being a Vuki in this village and was earning enough to become a free citizen. However he learned of what the people did behind closed doors and after gaining his freedom set about leaving for civilization. Unfortunately the family who had kept him manipulated documents to deny the existance of Ferne's freedom setting a plan to recapture him in process. Ferne learned of their plan and tried to escape the night before the Vuki family were going to act. He stayed in hiding in Olrit for three days before he was eventually captured by authorities and tried as a thief despite being innocent. It later turned out that the Vuki had been behind it. However a pastor from the Proque Clan met Ferne in prison and befriended him. When the pastor was found innocent of his crimes he appealed for a retrial of Ferne's case. Ferne was found innocent and released from prison. Ferne then started up a friendship with the pastor and became fascinated by the Proque religion. Ferne moved into the Proque village to the west of Olrit and spent many years there as a shop assistant. Ferne eventually attained Preacher status and moved to Diegoltun about a year ago to spread the words of his faith. He bought a building that had burned down to renovate into a corner store which he expanded into a minimart. After the mall was built nearby Ferne lost custom and used the size of his store as a warehouse for rent until just recently when he converted it into a weapon store.
Relatives/Family
Ferne's family live in Yova to the south. They disapproved of Ferne and kicked him out when he found his faith. Ferne has made efforts to bury the hatchet but his family are reluctant to.
World/Setting
The Valhalor world is a mixture between real-world, fantasy and sci-fi settings with the second item being a more dominant factor. There are 8 islands in Valhalor, 5 of which are divided into multiple countries. Many years ago there was a war between the Dozers of Meka Island and the Yovans of South Island, which resulted in Valhalor being divided into 2 warring alliances. Monsterville is a country in South Island that is strongly fantasy themed, though Olrit county in particular is very much modern day. Monsterville is mostly forested and has a European look. It's home to a lot of unusual wildlife and often hazardous kinds. Diegoltun City is the main setting for the Monsterville game which this character is from. The city has a wide range of businesses from shops, craft works and restaurants to offices, entertainment and tourist attractions. There are also several smaller villages around Diegoltun and the city itself is sat next to a much larger city known as Olrit.
