Simeon Sworn
Descritption: Simeon - the young warrior of the Settlement - was popular with everyone. With his straightforward nature, honesty, dedication, willingness and pleasant demeanor, he managed to win the favor of those around him. He was open, sincere and had his heart in his hand. His well-built body, knowledge of the art of fighting, and handsome face made him an ideal candidate for difficult tasks. He was naturally intelligent and courageous. He excelled in all the competitions that were held among the young men in the Settlement. Whether it was a competition in strength, in fighting with or without weapons, in endurance or speed running, in climbing, throwing, archery...
He had cocoa-brown eyes, black hair cut short on the sides of his head, parted in the middle, and long at the back, falling below his shoulders. His pleasant facial features evoked feelings of sympathy and friendship at first glance.
Simeon Sworn's charisma, however, did not come only from his handsome face and strong young body. It came purely and clearly from the essence of his soul. His warmth, willingness to listen and help others, the desire to be better and push the boundaries of his skills were reflected directly in his eyes and magically attracted everyone who looked into them. Despite his young age, he had the necessary qualities for a good leader: one who could inspire and lead others with courage and bravery, regardless of his own benefit and comfort.
Height: 185 cm

Interesting fact:
Main weapon: Simeon perfectly mastered the art of hand-to-hand combat without weapons. He was also an excellent marksman. He shot brilliantly from a bow and crossbow. Thanks to honest training, he was able to concentrate perfectly. At such moments, his hand was steady, his mind clear, and his eye sharp. However, his main and most favorite weapon was the sword.
Life credo: “To be better and more experienced each day than the day before...”
(Sworn wasn't the only young man in the settlement who took Ganmal's advice as his own. But he was one of the few who could actually put it into practice...)

Quote from Artefact of Might:
(Chapter: Settlement Assembly)
“Simeon?” Ganmal’s voice snapped him out of his lethargy. “Are you willing to set out on a journey to the Distant Isles and risk your life for the Settlement?”
Simeon gasped. The excited commotion died down, and everyone waited with tension for the young man to answer.
“I…” he began timidly, looking around at the surrounding faces.
He knew them all well. Many of them were like his brothers, many he looked up to as his fathers. He would have laid down his life for them if necessary. But deep down in his heart he felt that he was not the one who could handle such a difficult task. And that scared him. He did not believe in himself. He was full of self-doubt.
"I'm too young and inexperienced for such a mission. I think one of the more experienced warriors should go. Someone who has already experienced more in life. For example – Raba Rosales!" he pointed towards one of the largest and bravest men in the Settlement. Raba had courage to spare and still had some left. He was almost twenty years older than Simeon and his life experience could come in handy on a dangerous journey full of unexpected adventures.
"Yes, Raba! Rosales... let Rosales go," a few men shouted, and Ganmal calmed them down with slow gestures.
"Do you have any more suggestions?" he asked, his eyes scanning everyone present.
No one said anything, so the wise wizard continued: "Very well then. We will choose between Simeon Sworn and Raba Rosales!"
