Appearance
Cherny Woods is a boy on the cusp of adolescence, dark-haired, dark-eyed, scrawny for his age. Most often he wears simple clothes of hardwearing black-dyed fabric - breeches, boots, shirt and doublet, with an outsize overcoat and woollen scarf in the winter. As squire to Sir Elliot Gahald he wears a mailshirt beneath a plain surcoat and a kettle hat of stove-blacked iron, and carries a stout-bladed falchion at his belt.
Background
Origins
Cherny speaks little of his early life. Insistent questioning might glean that he was youngest of seven siblings - Maksym, Agata, Henryk, Jurek, Edyta and Irenka. His mother tended their small home in the Western Woods, while his father was variously a tinker, a cunning-man or a poacher depending on how one interprets the boy's uncertain recollections.
The Broken Dagger
At some point in 212 AR he entered the service of Marek Waldemar as the miller's assistant, earning his bread and board with long days spent hauling flour sacks and ensuring that the grain hopper didn't run dry. His master was stern - sometimes even frightening - but fair, provided his workers did not shirk their chores. Not long after this he began frequenting the Broken Dagger, where he has found firm friendships and ghastly horrors in equal measure.
During the The Red-and-Gold Summer of 213 AR Cherny left the miller's service and was taken on as a squire by Sir Elliot Gahald, placing him close to the heart of the Lady's court as attendant to her most favoured champion. After the Lady's fall he remained in Sir Gahald's service, nursing his knight's wounds in secret and staying by his side through the long convalescence that followed.
