**Character Background:** Desmond grew up in the south side of Coeur. He doesn't remember much of his early childhood, but then again who does.
His earliest memory is fighting with the other urchins he grew up with in the steets usually for a crust of bread or some other, unpleasant
form of nourishment and just managing to survive from day to until he was old enough to join one of the south side gangs. Because of
his mixed heritage he was often singled out and picked on by older or huskier curs and so his survival soon became dependent on a few
skills he had to acquire quickly in order to avoid bigger, more powerful challengers or would be bullies. Specifically, he learned to
run and to jump and to climb, eventually so efficiently that he could easily scale the side of a building, jump from one roof to another then
drop to the cobble stoned ground from a height that would easily hurt or maim another then continue running. With such athleticism, came
greater agility and so if an encounter did come to blows, he was seldom on the receiving end, quickly out maneuvering an opponent, maybe
managing to land a few disorienting blows himself before taking off running to the safety of the rooftops and buildings. He was
scouted shortly thereafter in an encounter that was a bit of a suprise to Desmond as it involved someone with similar talents,
chasing him down in a free-running hunt. Desmond then disappeared from the streets of Coeur for nearly ten years, not that he was particular
missed. Anyone who knew him figured he had been killed by some gang member, his body dumped unceremoniously in the harbor or some slop
pile. He has returned to Coeur for reasons known only to him.
