and well proportioned physique. His hair is a mahogany red shot with sun
scorched runs of brandy gold. Misty gray eyes flecked with copper

Background:
Chershen grew to manhood deep in the pulsing heart of the
French quarter. His much admired father, was a barkeep by trade, while his Mother
was a sultry singer with the voice of an angel. His early years revolved around
the life, heart, and soul of New Orleans jazz and nightlife. A quiet child by nature he buried himself
in books, drinking in what he could get his hands on and dreaming up stories on what he couldn't. While
not wealthy by any stretch it was a happy existence.
With both parents retired and moving to the sunny shores, Chershen did what he knew best....music. After
two years of the rough turns of the night club life, Chershen decided to take a
gamble. A romantic by nature, he sold off the house his parent's had left him and
sunk it all into a little rundown night club in a not so nice
neighborhood.
Crossing his fingers and jumping in he set about with blood, sweat, and tears to create
what would become a failed dream. Dismayed by his failure, he put aside his beloved music,
packed up what little he had and moved on. Chershen spent much of his time tickling the
ivories at an assortment of nightclubs, often staying only a handful of nights before becoming
dissatisfied with it and moving on.
A full year passed before his return to New Orleans, and it was a time
spent in thought. Scrimping and saving as he had managed to do over the short time he found his funds
still lacking for his second chance at his dream. Growing desperate to see his dream a reality Chershen
turned to one he knew best, Duncan Oss.
Duncan, knowing the younger mans passion for music and composing, struck with him a deal, one Chershen regrets
to this day. Chershen, in exchange for the freedom of
building his dream signed a contract binding him to the man for 750,000 dollars at a rate of 40% over a
five year period. Duncan, having the paper in hand set Chershen loose on his dream of building the upscale
night club, the Silver
Chalice. Now it's opening night, one year after he signed his soul to the demon
that hounds him and all he can do is pray..... |
