 Character Background: With his shaved, tattooed head and crimson robes, Bareris is unmistakably a Red Wizard of Thay. Despite that order's well-earned reputation for evil and depravity, Bareris is not all that bad a guy. He is a master of necromancy, an art often viewed as wicked and unforgivingly evil; however, rather than surrounding himself with hordes of undead servants, he seeks to use the black arts in a more contemporary manner. Where most spellcasters hurl fire and lightning to destroy a foe, Bareris lays low his enemies with magical poisons, strength draining entropic spells, and bone-chilling touches from beyond the grave. While his methods are wildly different than the norm, the results are no less impressive. Bareris often allies himself with strong warriors, as his magic often weakens a foe but does not deal the killing damage. Thus, a strong blade at his side is a must.

Bareris is somewhat of a pariah among the Red Wizards. Unlike most of his brethren, he has no political ambitions inside of Thay. He tends to roam the face of Faerun on roads that take him far from his homeland. He is not in exile and does have allies in Thay, he simply prefers to stay away.

The Red Wizard has surprised many adventurering companions with his ability and surprisingly good nature. Although frowning on his methods, a paladin of Lathander even gives grudging respect to the spellcaster. Bareris saved him from certain death at the claws of ghasts; whom better to defeat the undead than a student of necromancy? Bareris seeks adventure and obscure arcane lore. He hopes to one day return to Thay and impress his fellow Wizards by showing them the power of necromancy acquired without the crutch of undead minions.
