Andrik Prove

Andrik is the given name of Shadow Prove, from when he was a child living with his parents. After his parent's death, Andrik left the world of nobility and entered the slums. He shed his name when he was accepted into the Blood Moon Gang, as a full member.

Description
Andrik was meek and submissive, until he became twelve years old, when he couldn't stand his father, Jekrom, any longer. He became rebellious and flatly disrespected Jekrom, while remaining on good terms with his mother, Oriza, and his brother, Narix. After joining the Blood Moon Gang, he became more ready to fight, though he preferred speaking to violence.

History
Andrik Prove was born to Nobleman Jekrom Prove and Oriza Prove. Two years later, his brother Narix was born. Andrik's childhood mostly consisted of interactions with his mother and younger brother; Jekrom cared only about his work, and paid his family little mind. After a bullying incident at school, Andrik dropped out, was hired a tutor, and became the playmate of Prince Hydron until he was ten years of age.

At eleven, Andrik began to learn about his role as a nobleman's son, becoming Jekrom's assistant. A year later, Andrik decided he no longer wished to listen to his father and began to rebel against him. Mere months later, Andrik's manor burned down, killing both his parents.

Andrik would have been accepted as a castle ward, but he fled, not wanting to live under the same roof as Hydron. He wandered into the Slums, where he was found by Cressedia Farrow.

Spared by the Blood Moon Gang, Andrik was tested to see if he could survive. He passed the test, and became a Gang Apprentice. After a year of training, he was allowed to come to a border battle. After the fight was over, Andrik was ambushed by a remaining enemy. In a desperate struggle, Andrik tried to free himself, but accidentally killed the other Vestal.

Unable to accept that he had killed another person, Andrik's shock ate at him until he was no longer able to remain sane. After recieving his gang name, Shadow, Andrik couldn't hold it in any longer and went insane.
