Personal History (Please be detailed, this creates your basis for your character)
Bertrand worked for many art galleries. He came to America because he fell in love with an artist. She lived in Nachton and created watercolors. Two years ago she died of breast cancer caught too late. He has not had the heart to leave. They did not have any children.
