Tinnitus Kakafonia

Player Character

In the dimly lit The rosemary and thyme, a young boy named Tinitus was raised amidst a symphony of silk and laughter. His mother, a courtesan of unparalleled beauty and grace, was his guiding light in this world of opulence and allure. But it was not only she who shaped his upbringing; the other courtesans, with their kind hearts and nurturing spirits, took young Tinitus under their collective wing, showering him with affection and care. Tinitus's own mother had once been one of their most sought-after companions in the rosemary and thyme, so his father was one of the many customers that visited his mother nine months before he was born.

From a tender age, Tinitus found himself drawn to the captivating performances that unfolded within the walls of The rosemary and thyme. He would watch with wide eyes as the courtesans danced and sang, their movements like poetry in motion. Fascinated by their artistry, he yearned to be a part of their world, and they welcomed him eagerly, teaching him the intricacies of dance, music, and the art of seduction.

As Tinitus grew older, his talents blossomed. He became adept at applying makeup, enhancing the beauty of the courtesans before they took to the stage. He learned to play a variety of musical instruments, but it was the flute that captured his heart, its ethereal melodies resonating deep within his soul.

At the age of sixteen, Tinitus bid farewell to The rosemary and thyme, venturing out into the world as a bard. Confident in his abilities, he believed himself to be the greatest musician to ever grace the realms. Yet, his interpretation of music was unconventional, often incorporating experimental tones that elicited mixed reactions from his audiences. While some praised his avant-garde approach, others cringed at the cacophony of sounds that emanated from his instruments.

Despite his musical prowess, Tinitus's romantic inclinations were equally unconventional. He found himself drawn to women of strong will and fierce independence, relishing the challenge of wooing them with his lofty charm. However, beneath his outward confidence lay a subconscious desire for dominance, a trait he was unaware of but which colored his relationships in subtle ways.

Tinitus's personality was a tapestry of contradictions—charming yet awkward, confident yet insecure, his love for being in the center of attention, reveling in the adoration of his audience, and his desire for solitude. He navigated the world with an air of flamboyance, his presence commanding attention wherever he went. And though his journey was fraught with missteps and discordant notes, Tinitus remained steadfast in his belief that music, like life itself, was meant to be lived with passion and fervor, no matter the dissonance it may bring
