Early Life
Pierre grew up in the wealthy family fortune of the Brier’s and was educated by the best money could buy. While he was a good student he was always one to push boundaries and play devil’s advocate. He thought that all good ideas, no matter how long believed, deserved to be tested through vigorous argument and this got him into trouble especially when questioning tradition within Nestwood.
Pierre is also an opportunist, plans to take action before others feel that’s it’s a safe investment. One example was when he invested money in the trade of a newly discovered herb that claimed to cure a rash. The investment never saw great returns, but he always thought of the experience to be a learning one. It being one of his first business ventures even at the young age of 15.
He learned throughout childhood the proper etiquette around elders and royalty, and respected the laws as being a form of structure and practice that works as a sociological password that bars off less wealthy individuals from being granted the same respect as others. He does not personally agree with the notion, but recognizes it for what it is, and abides by it to keep his status. With close friends Pierre can be seen as much more relaxed in expression and body language.
Biography
Pierre sees the strength of society in its structure. An organic and ever changing entity that needs different types of people the same way a body needs different types of nutrients. Nobles have a purpose as bankers, lawyers, and nobles, while others have the purpose of creating and selling the goods using money loaned out and protected by these bankers and nobles.
Pierre has been spending his adult years continuing his family’s business and learning the intricacies of law and leadership. He even took effort into learning the different religions in order to form his own personal opinions about them without the impedance of directed education telling him what to think about them. He does not personally follow a deity, as he explains:
“Even if they are real, I do not need them and they do not need me. There are more people out there who have actual reasons to pray for gods, and I think the gods would agree. They’d much rather have people praying who really need them.”
