6) Character Personal History:
Euric was born to Arys Sand and Alyssa of Asshai. For the first few years of his life he was brought up in Braavos, but then his parents made an obscure journey south, where soon they entered the continent of Sothorys. Here it was that the Targaryens had made their home and it would be the perfect place for Euric to bloom into a great young man. However, he proved a little inept at first, preferring to read books than stand sweating in the yard, but this all changed on a fateful day. Euric, at the time twelve, had set his eyes on a lovely young lady he had seen and desperately wanted to make the girl know about his feelings. He spotted her in the yard one day and approached her, a nervous smile on his face. That moment however one of the younger and more brutish soldiers in training decided he should get the prize, punched Euric in the mouth and tried to take the girl by force. That was the moment when all was decided for the young Sand; with a power he didn't know he had he wrenched the soldier from the girl and gave him such a hard beating that the master of arms had to pull Euric off the boy.
From that day on Euric spent every day in the yard, honing his skills as best as he could, and he soon proved to be an exceptional young talent. To his further luck, the girl he had saved had been none other than one of the Targaryen twins and so Euric was proclaimed a hero and allowed to meet with the girl and Saella Targaryen. Though no love blossomed between the two young ones, Saella told Euric he was allowed to ask her for one thing and she could not turn it down. That, Euric said, was that he would wish to go by his real name, his grandfather Beric's name; Dayne. Saella made it so and this spurned Euric on even more to be the best he could. When the time came for the armies to march to Westeros, Euric was ready; he was merely seventeen but he already proved to be an exceptional swordsman, as well as having a knack for commanding people.
7) Character Physical Description:
Euric is tall and lean, standing at about 6'1'', his silver hair cut short off his shoulders. He has a very handsome face, though the effects of war and marital issues can be seen in his Lavender and Gold speckled eyes, which slowly appear to become more hollow. His skin is pale and he looks to be losing weight.
8) Character Reputation:
In the Targaryen camp Euric is known as an amazingly talented swordsman and commander, famous also for his by-name after he searched for and retrieved Dawn, the sword of his family. Among the Westerosi survivors he is also well known, a tall figure in black that battles with a shining white blade.
It is also rumored that he really likes honey.
