What is there to say about Osato? First and foremost is what everyone sees whenever he enters a room, his face. He is a pretty boy, to say the least about his zeal in the appearance realm. He is always clean shaven, always freshly bathed, and his hair is always freshly brushed. His nose and mouth are small and unobtrusive, his eyes are high-set and normally wide, and he sports a high cheekbone (giving him the look of royalty at some times). His hair, long enough to extend below his waist, is as smooth as silk and as vibrant as the midnight moon. It is parted mostly to the left, with a wisp of hair allowed to lie across his forehead, giving him a rather dramatic flair.
His body is of a medium build, muscular but not obscenely so. Most of his power, and as such his bulk, is found in his legs. He has a finely sculpted chest and abdomen, both of which he is pretty proud of and always working on. With his months of training and fighting under the Yerrian Order he has almost ‘fallen in love’ with his body, as the girls back home would undoubtedly.
His clothes are only what were issued to him when he joined, though the original set was traded in when he graduated from the training. They are the blue, black, and silver of the Yerrian Order. Worn proudly, and meant to show off the warriors physique, the top is a sleeveless silver shirt that is tight across his body. Around his neck he wears a common black collar, made of thick leather, which is no more then a fashion statement. His pants are rather tight as well, but made of a light but resilient fiber allowing them to stretch and accommodate Osato during fights. He wears a wrap of silver, which flows around his heels, that is overlapped by the symbol of the Yerrian Order. Both of the items of clothing are cut to reveal the warrior’s legs and allow him to move freely when running or even riding. Both hands are wrapped in fine black gloves that come from his fingers to elbows, made of the same material as his trousers. And finally he wears a thick and heavy leather boot, the most beloved part of the soldier’s wardrobe. The boots are made to withstand heat up to 150 degrees to anything below that without taking damage from the temperatures.
Belts and straps meet in random places across the uniform, holding down certain parts while allowing other to be exposed. There are not enough to be a significant factor, but they are in areas that could serve as good places to store smaller weapons if the need arose. Osato is proud of his uniform, as well as the Yerrian Order and would never let the clothing be dirty if he has a way to clean them.
Class: ~+~Warrior—
The warrior is a class that holds more possibilities then any other, and also the most people. There is an almost unlimited amount of adaptations of the warrior class, and the subclasses are always expanding with new additions. To pick the warrior class is to enter into something far bigger then most people even realize. The warrior class extends throughout all of Althanas, making up the spine of civilization from the common troop of an army to the High General of Asvisidek.
Sub-class: -----Mercenary-----
A mercenary is almost always no more then a simple wandering warrior, just a sell-sword. They are almost always money hungry, power hungry, and blood-thirsty, looking for nothing more then a challenge. Most are cowardly when it comes to fighting opponents much stronger, or when they don’t outnumber the opponent by at least two to one. Though it is rare to find one who is loyal to those that are paying, it isn’t unheard of to find one. They have a strange way of working across battlefields and the skilled and experienced mercenaries are often looked up to with their abilities to think faster in a battle then any other warriors.
Armor:
**Steel Gauntlets – blackened steel gauntlets that cover from the tips of his fingers to his elbow in length, common armor for a grunt soldier. These are only the metal parts, which wrap around the gloves that the character has as part of his normal clothing.
**Steel boots – blackened steel plates that cover the top and sides of the thick leather boots that he wears, common armor for a grunt soldier. These attach to the front and sides of the thick boots, easily removed or replaced without damaging the boot itself.
Weapons:
**Steel longsword – blackened steel longsword. It is an estimated three feet long, with an eight inch handle wrapped in thick black leather straps. It is of a common make, nothing outstanding about it to set it apart from any other Yerria made blade. There is no sheath for the blade, but instead a ‘sling-like’ object that allows it to hang from his belt at his side. The sling can be adjusted as the user sees necessary, and can be used in almost any position including across the back or along the leg.
Items:
**Tablet of Order and Chaos – a battle-trinket that is given to all soldiers of Yerria when they complete their initial training to join the army. It is a small tablet-like object, made of Delyn, with the words of Order inscribed across the front of it. On the backside it holds the words of Chaos. It is not something that can be sold, and is commonly wrapped around every soldier’s arm to remind them always of why they serve.
**Charms – three K-9 teeth from mature dire-wolves, a hole is burrowed through the tops of them and a cord of Delyn is wrapped through those. The cord hangs from the sword hand of the soldier, dangling only about three inches. It shows past victories, it is only a minor trophy for others to see and cannot be sold for anything.
**Gift of Am’aleh – a charm that hangs from around his neck, it signifies the symbol of the Coronian god of the sea. Osato has a minute belief in gods, even though he is a direct creation of them. It is made of thick steel cord and winds around a second time to make two necklaces. The second is used to hold ‘favors’, small rings granted upon completing a mission or task in the duty or in respect of the god. These are bestowed by the High Priest of the different religions, all gods represented by a separate ‘parish’ on Yerria.
Class Bonuses:
30% proficiency with all sword-like weapons of common craft (no martial or unique weapons)
30% proficiency with all armor, though anything of the heavier medium (scale mail) to any heavy armor presents difficulties with a flowing fighting style that Osato prefers.
Racial Bonus:
25% Immune to spec. magic – Osato, as a Soulless, is immune to most things that would affect the soul. Spells and magic that are directly inflicted on a person/being/creatures emotion or threatens their eternal soul being stolen (enter cliché devil-soul trade here) he is immune to it.
((Because I don’t want to be putting all empathy/emotional mages at a major disadvantage this skill much rise just as any other. Spells of an ‘emo’ like nature will affect him if they are above that 25% mark, but instead of attacking his soul they will mess with his mind and body instead…))
Skills:
25% proficiency in hand to hand combat – Osato has trained his skills with his hands and feet only minimally. His greatest strength, and only strength, lies in his sword, but when the time calls for it he is able to fight without the weapon. Unfortunately most of his style revolves around a fluid motion and his strength in his legs, which is proven to be 2.5 times stronger then his fists. Most times the area is limited and when he is on the ground grappling he is easily overtaken.
Pretty boy – The man cannot help but look good. He is resistant to bruises, wounds hardly ever scar, once closed a wound will normally heal quickly, and his hair always seems to fall the way it’s supposed to. Osato just cannot help it, but then again… he really doesn’t mind that much either.
History:
Personal:
Osato was spawned on the island of Yerria, off the coast of Corone. It is a large island when compared to the others around it (small though when compared to even Scara Brae), alone holding only a city that takes up nearly all of it and a port for which it is known. But over many years the island’s defense was transformed into a machine, working across other islands. In ten years of island hopping the Yerrian Order came to bear upon thirty other islands off the Southern coast, all the way up to the middle of Corone.
The larger island nation seems to pay no attention to the smaller feuds off their shores, but instead watches with a sharp eye.
Osato, being raised on the host island, where all the power of the Yerrian Order rested, was quickly adopted into the militia. From the age of 15 found himself training with his weapon, the long sword. He was no more then a common soldier though, and though most could sense his skills growing none truly understood him. In his deep eyes people would often find themselves transfixed and lost.
As time progressed the people that he had grown up with, people that he had found himself looking at as both friends and family, began to look at him with a different eye. No longer did he feel so comfortable, no longer did he feel safe. He slowly began venturing into the port more and more, plotting and pondering solutions to his problems.
At the age of 20 the man ventured away from Yerria. As a deserter (though it was expected by the Order) he began a new life, one where the ‘soulless’ are rarely known or seen. Althanas’ understanding of the soulless beings may not be as well known as in Yerria, nor as well accepted. But Osato is willing to be a sell-sword and work for his earnings as a mercenary.
