NOTE: Due to Pink and Robert technically being the same age, and having known each other for a long time before the adoption, Robert does not treat her as his aunt--much to Pink's frustration. Both Robert and Dia ignore his adoptive relationship to Rai and Kadalni.

| religious beliefs
|
Robert thinks the goddess of dragons is neato. He traveled to her temple and all, and her high priestess was oh-so-nice. Richard (RPer--Nakibe) likes Ryuugami--he's like, a Paladin and stuff...so is Raptre L'Sarithe (RPer--Nekogami), and Dia's brother, Mikan. Ryuugami herself is really neat--she's all dragonny and stuff. Oh, and she promised to turn him into a dragon when he grew up. How cool is that?
Rob actually knows a fair bit more about Ryuugami than many Gaerans, from having talked with High Priestess Ma'neechaman (NPC--pd Rydia), Ryuugami, and various Paladins. However, he knows little about Ishtar and Primaer, the difference between the greater and lesser deities, and so on and so forth. All he knows about gods is from...uh...meeting them. In person. Religion is a word he knows, but doesn't really click with him. Dia probably won't be explaining it to him.

Rob works in the Jade Dragon Inn for two hours an evening--give or take a bit--about two or three days a week, depending upon business, mood, and negotiations with Dia. For this he gets paid and Dia is satisfied that he is learning to behave himself in company better. He studies history and Common (reading, grammar, composition) with a tutor, as well as a smattering of informal lessons from Dia_Rai, and any acquaintances she can con into giving them. In exchange for Robert doing this without kicking, screaming, and pulling the inn down around her ears, Dia teaches him survival skills when the opportunity arises. Rob also pesters Richard--amongst others--for combat training. He has no magical talent at all.
Robert has had a complicated relationship with his father, who is deeply involved with the Doman Shango. While young, the boy only saw his father rarely, and on occasion witnessed his father protecting his mother and himself from raiders with a gun; he was quite impressed with his father, and looked up to him. However, while in Doma, in 1312, he witnessed his father's detainment, and became very upset. His father, meanwhile, disappeared soon after this. finally, a warrant was issued by the Doman Guard for his arrest, in 1314, on the 25th of Gaerara. Whether or not Rob knows this isn't known...but he doesn't talk about his father anymore, and no longer asks Dia about looking for him.
Rob, officially, takes care of |Wiff, the Jade Dragon's resident mutt.

Background
Robert's home town, Middith, lies in Doma, directly below the Ridhon River which separates the country from Riva. However, nearby Rivan dragoons decided that the town really belonged to the country of Riva, and routinely raided the town once every few months to collect "taxes." If that were not bad enough, the town also has to contend with the Shango (a widespread network of gangsters linked to a few religious fanatics), who demand "tithes" for "protecting" the town from the Rivan menace, once or twice a year.
Rob has grown up being terrorized by both groups. While he doesn't fully understand the politics behind it, he does understand that strangers regularly bring trouble to Middith. Because of this, he partially took it upon himself (and partially was made to take it upon himself) to work as a sentry for the town--for many hours each day, most days out of the week, Rob watched the area surrounding the town. He and a few others who are recruited to do the same thing hope to be able to bring warning back to town before a raid.
One day, Rob witnessed a group of strangers approaching town--an extraordinarily odd group of strangers. Wanting to get a closer look, the boy crept closer to the group...
Amongst the travelers was Hakaril Silvar (RPer--Archmage144), Dia Rai, and none other than the (in)famous Choark (RPer--Choark). Robert will forever maintain that he was discovered by trickery, but--by Ryuugami!--he could have taken down any one of them if they had the gall to have fought him. Later, through a series of events spanning the course of a couple months, Robert wound up under Dia's temporary care. And then under her semi-permanent care.
Finally, in 1314, Dia finally said "Fuck it" (literally or figuratively, it's forgotten) and adopted the kid. This seems to have done a great deal toward reassuring Robert and settling down his distrust and rowdiness. To an extent, that is.
