Hey folks! This is my old character from Tanthanas! (DIRKS, YOU RULE!) I believe Poe was Level 2 at one point, but Dirks found his level 1 profile, so I've decided to just start over EXP wise. I hope this looks acceptable (I decided on Claw Mastery as a skill, and then three abilities), but as always the RoG has last say. That being said, Woohoo!!! Poe is back!
Name: Poe
Age: 11
Gender: Male
Weight: 52 lbs
Height: 3 feet
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Brownish-Blonde
Race: Hegido, but Poe doesn’t consider himself one of any race.
Race Description/History: Hegido
Hegidos began a bit after humans emerged. Originating in swamps and places that have been shunned by mankind, the Hegido have undertaken forms of evolution and migration. They quickly move through the stages of life, living only forty or fifty human years. Because their peak is so soon, the time it takes a Hegido to mature is much quicker than the average human. A Hegido becomes a fully-fledged adult is usually at about 9 or 10. Hegidos are known for their green skin and abnormal height changes. The average Hegido is around 1 foot at birth, and grows to about 7 feet tall at adulthood. A Hegido typically becomes a worker between the ages of 12-38, and then they breeds between the ages of 40 and 45, when they are past their peak, and have no use on Althanas other than to make sure that the Hegido have a future. Hegidos did not marry until they were in their forties. Each generation generally follows this cycle, and it has progressed to this day. Hegidos live based on survival, and so parents usually Hegidos are usually not welcome in public areas, and they spend most of their time around their new homeland, the plateaus of Althanas.
The Fields of Growth: Poe’s Childhood History
Poe, after he was born at 1 foot, 10lbs, was quickly entered into the infamous training facility, the Fields of Growth, by his parents. He was kept there until he was 10. At the Fields of Growth, Poe was trained in a weapon skill previously chosen by his parents, the claws. He was taught many things deemed necessary to learn for survival, and other important things as well. He also was taught the basic Hegido traditions, codes, and laws. When Poe became 10, he had officially graduated, and as a gift, the facility gave him a pair of claws that he treasured greatly. He was also given a belt with personalized slots for his two claws, so that he would have easy access to them if he should need it. When Poe returned to his parents, they saw that he had barely grown. In the 9 years that Poe had spent at the facility, he had grown a total of a foot and a half, and green was barely visible on his skin. All of his peers had grown at least four feet, and easily overshadowed him in color. Because they were embarrassed with the fact that they had a kid different from everybody else, Poe’s parents quickly brought him outside of the community and left him there with a food pouch, clothes, and his belongings that he had received from the facility. They quickly explained to him that they needed to leave him there for the moment, and left. After a few hours, Poe’s teenager brain finally realized what happened, and so he left the plateaus behind, with an adventure in front of him.
Items/Weapons:
Steel Claws:Poe owns a pair of steel claws that he acquired from the Fields of Growth. When not in use, they hang from his belt. The hilt is an oaken handle that resemble brass knuckles, and each claw has three prongs. These are Poe’s favorite belongings, as they are his only means of defense. (And attack, for that matter.)Slingshot:Poe has a slingshot to distract, annoy, and many other things. Poe keeps it on his belt. He does not carry any ammo, preferring to use whatever is at hand.Pelt Belt:Belt that holds Poe’s items. As of now, they only hold his claws and slingshot, but in the future they may hold other items.Clothes:Poe has a pair of linen pants and a white linen shirt that he wears almost all of the time. Sometimes he goes bare-chested, when he is swimming. The bare-chested look shows the green-tint on his skin however, and he is ashamed to show it.Skills/Abilities:
Claw Adeptness:Poe is quite adept with the claws, having above-average ability compared to a normal human. His training in the Fields of Growth forced him to learn many a technique to survive his growing rivals.Swift as a Bunny:As a small creature, Poe has found that his reflexes and agility are very quick, up to 2x as much as a normal human.Manipulative Decoy:Because of the fact that Poe is so tiny, he has the magical ability to make himself look physically like a human child for thirty minutes. He likes to use this ability to pick people’s pockets in public, run errands without being seen, and do other mischievous things. (Appears to be a 5 year old child, brown hair, brown eyes, same height and weight as Poe)Supersize:Poe, through much practice, has discovered that his uncanny shortness is the result of a magical family history. He has discovered that he can make himself grow taller for the time span of five minutes. This ability in no way improves anything about Poe, just makes him taller than he already was. Poe can grow to a maximum of four feet at the moment, as he is just beginning to practice this ability.
