Biography

Ambition boils through the blood of House Sefu. Duke Munjid acknowledged his brood of children wisely, favoring only those that had developed promise at a young age that he would be proud to claim. For the first years of his life Arif, born in the year 640 to one of the Duke's wifes, he was mostly ignored like many of the other childred sired by the ruling lord. Food, shelter and education was the basic benefits afforded to him. Though being groomed to become heir did not happen until later in his life.

As a child Arif did whatever he desired, regardless of the consequences. If trouble was discovered it was almost a certainty that Arif was the root cause of it. He could read people, children were the easist for him to manipulate and the practice of it would benefit the future heir. The game was a simple one, be noticed. Arif understood that his father had yet to name a heir. One that would lead the House towards further greatness and riches. According to Arif people, in general, are tools. Objects waiting to be navigated into position for self gratification. Even with his own mother Arif had a disconnection in regards for caring for her. She was simply the vessel that carried him into this life.

At fourteen Arif's life changed. The boy had just only one brother, a few years older than he was. Their father decided, that boys must fight each other in an audience and priests,letting the fate decide, who will be the heir. So, Arif had to fight against his own brother. Arif and his brother danced violently in the sand circle, trading strikes against one another. Landed blows left behind open wounds and blushing bruises. From a single mistep it allowed Arif to gain the advantage and from it came the tragedy of beheading his own brother. A triumpet moment that now marked him the eldest and strongest of the Duke's sons - the heir.

Duke Munjid interest grew in Arif, curious about the aspirations the young man had. Arif relayed that he was destined for greatness. He could match his father's wit through their discussions and perhaps the Duke even saw a little of himself in the youth's pensive and driven nature. A year later, at the age of fifteen, Arif was announced to be the Duke's heir. The grooming began. There were tutor's every day ranging from etiqutte, history, astrology, heraldry, folklore, economics, and of course warfare. Inbetween the lessons Arif developed a passion for hunting. A hobby that evolved from animals to using living slaves. When mercenarys of House Sefu would particpate in the slave raids, Arif was too quick to assit.

Arif would eventually have to lead his father's lands, taking on the responsibility of nurishing the seat of Selafua to further riches and greatness. He never complained for this was a necessity to his own survival. Whatever he desired would be there for him. Arif needs were catered to on a whim as long as he continued to meet and exceed the expectations of his father. The game was all too simple and nothing could penerate through the young man's armored heart. If there was one.

His pleasures reveled in the pain exerted onto others. It wasn't before long that the young Heir had earned himself a reputation as a merciless lord, instilling fear in those that would dare cross him. Particularly those chosen to cross into his bed chamber. Slaves and women alike would go missing, never heard of again. A habit that may have alarmed others however they were of no consequence to the Duke's interest.

Throughout the years Arif had fathered numerous children, and like his own father, none have gained his interest. He too would eventually need to name a heir. The betrothal announcement between he and Lady Samuela Zorich was for the sake of the two kingdoms. An expectation that would come to pass in order to keep the treaty alive. A treaty that expires in twentyfive years. A reminder that constantly reels in Arif's mind as his distaste grows in the strongly encouraged marriage from others.
