Micheal Urdo, Wavelord of Umberlee
Micheal was born into the House Urdo. He was the second oldest of six. He had an older brother and 4 younger sisters. Micheal did not like his house much, nor did he like his father. He spent most of this time trying to found a thieves guild in the city of Westgate. His father did not appreciate this and was preparing the boy for the priesthood. Micheal ran out of town after his guild was 'recruited' by the Night Masks. He left town with only a small fortune and his favorite horse. He traveled around the Dalelands searching for adventure and found some in Zhentil Keep. He also found out that if you win five hands in a row you can be accused of witchcraft and thrown out of town. Penniless and horseless he traveled away from both his father, the Night Masks, and the Keep. He journey from town to town living off the handouts from rich merchants daughters.
One night while earning his keep, he was rudely interrupted and chased out of a window by a father. In his fall he lost his eye. Having only the money to buy an eye patch, he bought what he thought was the most fashionable and decided he should look for some luck. He heard of a priest in Waterdeep named Caius that was starting a group of good rogues to combat the evil done by evil guides. When Micheal got to Waterdeep and started his following of Tymora, he found that Waterdeep was not the life for him. He did build up enough courage and luck to decide to try to go to the Keep and steal his horse back. He didn't bring enough luck and was killed and eaten by tribe of Thri-kreens in the Anauroch. Micheal traveled the lands of the dead for a long time. He witnessed the changes that the new Lord of Death brought about from his favorite ethereal pub.
One day he was approached by a messenger from the Temple of Umberlee. They noted his family name and the fact that his father still wished to put one child in a faith. They warned that if he did not come back, that is his father would give Micheal's youngest sister over to the Church of Umberlee. Micheal agreed to come back and be a priest in exchange for the safety and prosperity of his family. When Micheal came back to consciousness one year had passed in the realms of the living. Because the Priests that made the deal with him could not resurrect his soul, they instead placed his soul in a new body. Micheal's new body was not as quick as his old one, but it was stronger. He found that some tings had not changed with his body, he was still handsome, and he still bore the scar of his missing eye, but there was one large difference. The priests knowing he would try to get out of the deal, gave him an evil aura.
Micheal was placed in charge of collecting tithes in the City of Waterdeep. When he returned to Waterdeep he found the place very different. The streets were rampant with Paladins and Squires. Although at first Micheal tried to be a good priest, eventually the poor treatment he received in the city drove him to be exactly what the Church wanted. Micheal had many adventures and lived an exciting life, but at night when he sleeps he doesn't dream of conquests or riches. He dreams of dead friends and a life that he will never see.
