    Vaeron level 2

    The Man Who Never Smiles

    Level.1

    Main:

    Name: Rameses Vaeron
    Aka: Vaeron
    Age: somewhere in his 50s but looking good
    Race: Human
    Hair: brown turning grey
    Eyes: Light sea blue
    Build: Strong and well-built
    Height: 6ft 5 inches
    Weight: Whatever makes sense
    Occupation: Warrior


    Appearance:

    A tall, rough man who has wrinkles on his face but is well muscled for his age. He has broad shoulders, a stern jaw and large feet. He usually wears simple tunic and trousers, as well as an askew tricorn hat.
    He also has an unmistakeable scar on either side of his face, a small nick on either cheek where his smiling muscle was cut.

    Personality:
    Vaeron never smiles. That does not mean to say he does not feel emotion. Indeed, in actuality he feels emotion intensely, and at time it comes out in bursts of rash action, such as killing a whole hoard in anger. He sometimes feels joy even, and laughs in a rough, non-smiling way, which comes out in short huffing bursts. His past, however, has left him in a permanent state of mild depression and also an oddly precise accident in his 20th year left his Zygomaticus major muscle that allows him to smile to be injured. He is serious and proud, but also incredibly caring when he meets someone who he genuinely respects. This happens rarely, but when it does it often the creation for him of a lifelong friend.
    Vaeron is also gay, and struggles with this in a generally homophobic world.

    Skills:

    High Elven Association: Having lived amongst the elves of Raiaera for all of his life, Vaeron is both an expert and a lover of the culture and gods of this land. He considers Dark Elves his enemies and will readily trust any High Elf fairly easily.

    Knife Play:
    Vaeron is an expert knife fighter. He fights single-handed and is quick despite his age.

    Piracy and Seaman: Due to his experiences with the Black Sails Armada and Captain Tanglebeard Vaeron has learnt much of the way of the sea and of piracy. He has been on four ships to date, and serves currently on the Fiesty Fox, under captain Philomel the Matriarch.

    Astronomer:
    Vaeron is an expert astronomer, and can always find his way via the stars at night. He knows almost every constellation and can name them.

    Survivalist:
    With a good knowledge of how to look after himself and being brought up by his hunter father, Vaeron knows a good deal about life and keeping alive. Everything from making a fire, to hunting with a short bow, Vaeron is no stranger to starvation.

    Short bow: He is proficient with a short bow.

    Religion: Vaeron served for a short time as a priest of Earlon in his early twenties. During this time he became “blessed” by the god, and is now fully knowledgeable of most of the gods affinities and powers.

    Abilities:
    Vaeron was for a long time the god Earlon, and had many powers gained from him. This included an ability known as the Ocean's Rage, which came out as bolts of energy. During the past ten years however, Vaeron has lost a lot of his connection with his former god and has instead, just recently, started following Philomel's goddess, Drys. He is in the early stages of developing powers under her.

    Ashes Bow
    Vaeron is able to send a wave of energy from his new Ashes Bow. When he does this he needs no arrow, just the bow itself. When he draws back the string and summons the magic a bolt of energy will merge, in the form of an arrow. The “arrow” is capable of flying 150 feet and when it pierces the target it will send a direct form of energy through that. The 'arrow' can come in one of two forms:
    • Standard: This comes as a silver bolt. It hits just like an arrow made of steel would, with the same strength and power.
      Uses: unlimited.
    • Quake: This comes as a bronze coloured bolt of energy. Upon impact the arrows sends a minor earthquake from where it hits, spreading outwards in a circle for a matter of three feet, through flesh and ground. It comes to around four on the Richter scale and could potentially break a bone if aimed directly to it. It has the piercing strength of an iron arrow.
      Uses: 4 per thread.


    Kraken:
    Vaeron has a unique dagger. The blade on it is the colour of indigo, a rich blue, with a silver handle. It is one foot in length and is straight and double edged. The dagger itself is unusual in its power - it seems to have the ability to take on properties of other materials or weapons (such as material strength, enchantments etc) whether magical or otherwise, that are ‘mated’ with it at a permanent level. ‘Mating’ a dagger to Kraken requires Vaeron to be near a large body of water underneath the stars, and he can only ‘mate’ one dagger per few months (i.e. once per every level).
    At the moment Kraken has the strength and endurance of a damascus blade, and has the following ability:
    • Bite: Vaeron can choose to imbibe Kraken with power to activate this ability. When Kraken hits with its bite it does a major wound to the opponent. It must hit flesh to do damage, but can be of severity. It sends a sting into the wound that burns it from the inside much like a jellyfish sting, and causes minor irritation as well as major pain and will last for three posts before it becomes a subtle but constant throb.
      Uses: 3 per thread.


    Familiar:

    A huge, black shire horse stallion called "Meglodon." Megladon is a typical Clydesdale type breed, standing at twenty hands to the shoulder. Megladon is trained in war and will carry Vaeron both in and out.

    Important points:
    • Megladon is loyal and brave. He will not run from a fight, and understands most basic commands - "stop," "stay," "go" etc.
    • Megladon has natural weapons in the way of his massive hooves which have steel horseshoes on them. They can hurt hard if he kicks.


    Equipment:
    Kraken - an indigo bladed dagger as described in the ability. See above.
    -gained in first level-
    Ashes Bow - a talymer bow that is enchanted to work with his ability. See above.
    Steel horseshoes for Megladon.

    -two above gained here-
    A pack of supplies for a week.
    Clothes.
    A tricorn hat.

    History:

    Vaeron was born in Raiaera in a small community of humans. His mother abandoned him and his father shortly after Vaeron’s birth. His father was a hunter, and taught Vaeron much of his trade until the age of 18, when Vaeron felt the call to turn to the priesthood of the local elves - Earlon.

    He spent five years in this profession, and became known as ‘blessed’ and ‘honoured’ by the god, until he and some other younger priests came across a troop of vagabonds in the streets. By some strange curious happenstance, Vaeron received only one permanent injury, and that was the cutting of his Zygomaticus major muscle, that which is key in helping you to smile. Because of this Vaeron has never since been able to smile.

    He left the priesthood, mostly disheartened and set about returning to his father. He got back to his village only to find his father remarried and no longer interested in him. Now with no family, Vaeron left and wondered for some time, before coming across a quiet bay, and in that bay were sailors. He spoke to them, and then joined them. By way of practise he learnt the methods of sailing, and spent the next two decades of his life slipping between wandering by himself as a hermit of Earlon and a sailor.

    Then sometime later, and after a lover or two that failed him or died, Vaeron came across the man who is Bernard Lavishingham, a talented but ditsy mage. The two of them began to travel with one another, until Vaeron introduced him to the sea and later a life of piracy. Lavishingham was uncertain, but Vaeron persuaded him to embrace the life. The two of them came to know a pirate captain called Captain Tanglebeard, and they sailed with him on his ship the Fiesty Fish. Some years later the two mages helped a certain faun to take over that ship, and Vaeron now works somewhat with Philomel van der Aart, whom he discovered was a priestess of Drys, a tree goddess, being one of her closest allies but all the while creating his own adventures.

    Vaeron has watched Philomel grow from simple pirate to leader of a massive international organisation called the Gilded Lily. He has seen it grow over the last ten years from a simple group of whores who strove to gain powers from their pimps, through its generations as a spy guild when Philomel worked as master of secrets in the Crimson Hand. Post this, when the war between the Gilded Lily and the Crimson hand happened, Philomel worked tirelessly to reorganise it into the world's first feminist guild.

    He served on the Feisty Fox as temporary captain when Philomel had other missions. Then, when Henrietta Starr was hired as Captain he bade his time either adventuring with Philomel or finding his own adventures. He stayed close to her though. When Henrietta Starr was dismissed for basically being an arsehole, Vaeron was briefly back as Captain until Philomel's mother Lacey took over. It was then Vaeron proposed the idea of a more land-based headquarters for the Gilded Lily. Philomel took this more seriously after the war. After the falling through of a deal with Baron Marmaduke of Erstfort, to build a ship house on his island in Scara Brae, Philomel and Vaeron with others went to search for a place near where she began - in Concordia. Now able to establish a proper army and base she found and established the Gilded Lily fortress, based in an old abandoned one in the side of a cliff in the forest. Vaeron took up residence as the near permanent authority there when Philomel was away. He made the house run well, significantly finding help in Philomel's now secretary, Gosling. Even when Lacey died, Vaeron stayed in the fortress, instead Maverik the warrior heading to take up the position of ships captain on the Feisty Fox.

    The other significant moment in Vaern's life was when he drunkenly proposed that Philomel make an heir with him his reasoning was that as her best friend, he was the only sane choice and anyone else would have a claim on her. He said he would not be interested in life as a father. After some persuading, and a meeting from her goddess to tell her that the child was blessed, Philomel got pregnant. It had been an awkward night, mostly because of Vaeron's sexual preferences but it had worked.

    Celandine was born on the same island as they had tried to establish a base, and then raised in private away from both Vaeron and Philomel. As the years passed she was barely mentioned between them, and concentration was put on expanding the abilities of the Gilded Lily to having a standing army. Eventually, though, things became what they were and Philomel met a man called Shinsou van Osiris. It was with him that she formed a strong bond and Vaeron has since had a rivalry to his claim as best male friend to her. Shinsou also persuaded Philomel to help him go after the being known as Lye Ulroke, head of the Crimson Hand and Philomel's former master. Fearing for her life, Philomel decided to admit to the world that she had a daughter and collected her. Vaeron, though he never lets Celandine call him father, was at first very rigid and reluctant to be an active part of her life, however has become softer because of her. He works with Gosling to raise her in the fortress now, and has a fondness for her, despite what he says. He is a father, and a good man, and has finally begun to find company in the newly appointed resident 'other man' in the fortress, Tarrimar of Beinost.

    This relationship is very early however.
