Background Story
Lars Erikson was a country boy from a farmstead outside St. Croix Falls Minnesota. The farm was large, and as Lars found out later on, owned and run by kin of the Corax. Lars grew up there thinking he was like them for a long time, but when he hit puberty, he realised he wasn't. A Corax had bound him with a spirit Egg when he was just an infant, and toldthe farmers to guard the child with their lives. They werent even his real parents... tough for Lars to swallow, his kid sister wasn't his real sister either, none of this was his. He just wanted to become a farmer, but then the egg took him, staying at the farm suddenly held no meaning for him any more, and he started off into the world. Slowly at first, he was just a teenager, but he started sticking his nose in everyones business, regardless of it beeing a good thing or not, he couldn't help it, and he took more than his licks when he accidentally blabbered to everyone about how the high school football captain has cheated on his girlfriend with someone from another school, or when he foud out what the janitor was doing with some of the girls in the boiler room after school, shit like that. A raven came, well, a ware raven came, started teaching Lars the rules of his new life, even before he actually shifted, and when it finally hit, he was ready for it.
Now he is Lars Erikson, undeeded for now, Private investigator and paparazzi photographer. He goes where the juicy news or the cases lead him, or where his insatiable curiosity lead him.

We finally have somebody with a real Gnosis score. *taunts everybody else*
That said, I do love the idea of a Corax as a paparazzo that just can't sit still for two seconds.

I'm telling mom that you're comparing us to Corax again! That's not fair - its like comparing Delivery to DiJorno

Taunting isn't about fairness. It's about taunting.
