Raynill was born in large city where his father, an ex-soldier, was a well known blacksmith who forged weapons and his mother was a simple housewife. At a very young age Raynill became enthralled with his dad's work and wanted to follow in his footsteps until age ten. The family was walking around town when they were attacked by four thugs and Raynill's father took them all down with his bare hands. Raynill was astounded and after that realized he wanted to fight with the weapons rather than create them. Both his parents greatly discouraged Raynill's new addiction but could not stop him. He started to practice the art of combat in secret, sometimes borrowing his father swords to do so. He began to act out a lot more and often got in trouble around the city for fighting and trying to start fights.
At age seventeen he informed his parents he was joining a mercenery group called the Umbra Acies. His parents were against his decision tremendously but could not change his mind. The Umbra Acies was only a group of eighteen men who specialized in strategic covert attacks and were led by a man named Leger. Raynill was the youngest member of the group and was initially not respected by the others because of his age and lack of skill compared to theirs. He quickly caught onto the Umbre Acies' ways and became a favorite amongst the group and especially amongst Leger, who became like a second father to Raynill. While in the Umbra Acies he learned many skills and ways to advance his fighting technique from the others. Leger took particular attention to Raynill's rapid development and attack logics. When Raynill was twenty Leger announced Raynill was the new second in command for the group. Some group members immediatly protested Leger's act, some claiming he was still to young and inexperienced while others simply claimed they have been in the group longer then Raynill has. Leger then stated anyone believing they are more worthy to become second in command can prove themselves by killing Raynill right now. Two members immediately attacked Raynill but were defeated and executed. Leger often talked to Raynill of how there was more for them then doing other people's work, how success is achieved through sacrifice, and how someday they will be the ones other people do work for.
Soon the Umbra Acies began to see less and less of Leger and when they did see him he acted suspiciously, rarely talking directly to anyone else besides Raynill. The group had an assignment to eliminate the resistance of a small rebel encampment, Raynill led the attack in Leger's abscence. When they got to the encampment site they met up with Leger who was leading a much larger army. He explained in his abscence he has been working with a new and more advanced mercenery group that was given to him by a more powerful leader. To prove his loyalty he was asked to kill the members of the Umbra Acies. Raynill and his men fought against Leger's new army but his numbers were just to vast. They killed all but Raynill who Leger commanded they do not kill. Leger offered him a leadership spot in his army but Raynill's only response was to charge at him. Already bloodied and fatigued, Raynill was no match for his mentor.
Rather then killing him, Leger took Raynill captive throwing him into his army's personal underground prison. In the prison he was confined in a seperate area from any of the other prisoners and saw no one else other then the guards who came down to torture him. After two years there he was finally confronted by Leger again who told him he plans to see him again very soon then knocked Raynill out with a drug, When he awoke he was out in the middle of nowhere with only a canteen of water, a map he could not decipher and the clothes he was wearing. He traveled back to the city in which he was raised and went back to his father's armory. Their meeting was brief as Raynill could only had vengeance on his mind and his father could tell he was a completely different man then he was before. Raynill requested that his father make him a weapon fit to be drenched in a traitor's blood. Initially his father denied his request upon seeing his son's lust for vengeance but then Raynill threatened his life. It was then his father accepted the man standing before him was no longer his son. After that he made a custom sword for Raynill, calling it his last sin and promising to never make another weapon again.
Immediately after receiving the weapon from his father Raynill took off in a blind search for Leger but everywhere he goes no one has heard of Leger or his army. It's been a year since being freed from Leger capture and still has made no major strides in finding him.
Equipment:
The Last Sin: A custom made short short sword with a 6" steel handle and a 30" inch long blade. Both sides of the blade are blunt and is more for bashing then slicing, still as deadly as a bladed sword. Can break weapons made of weaker metals if hit hard enough. The sword is shaped like a rectange except the sides curve inward but not enough to form a point at the top. The sides are 7" apart.
The Umbra: A thin one foot blade that is hidden underneath his forearm bracers, worn as everyone else in the Umbra Acies. Is not durable enough to stop another blade but is rather just used for surprise attacks or a quick and silent kill.
Dragon Skin: Steel forearm bracers that are painted a very dark green and only cover the outside part of the forerarm. Are durable enough to defend against light weapon attacks and small thrown projects such as ninja stars and needles.
Wrinkled Map: A map with a code that no one has yet to figure out for Raynill.
Needles: Thin iron needles two inches in length that Raynill generally uses as projectiles. Currently only has five of them.
Skills:
Swordfighting: Can wield short swords with above average ability.
Unarmed Combat: Can fight without the use of weapons with average ability.
Sneaking: Can sneak around without being noticed with above average ability.
Throwing Projectiles: Can throw needles and throwing daggers with below average ability.
Abilities:
Shadow Dive: Raynill can pass through a solid object for up to two seconds with this ability. In order for this to work he must have a good amount of momentum built up, so he cannot use this while standing still, and must be able to visually see where he is going to end up after he is back to normal, so he cannot go through walls, doors, etc. Often dives when using this skill to ensure he has enough momentum to perform it. Skill can only be used once per day.
Piercing Light: A bright beam of light escapes from Raynill's palm, blinding anyone within ten feet in front of his palm for about five seconds. After the five seconds their vision is blurred for another five seconds. Also used to iluminate dark areas for a short period of time. Can only be used twice per day.
