04-05-15, 01:49 PM
Name: Aliander Slayn
Age: 23
Race: Human, Salvar
Hair Color: Dark ginger
Eye Color: Skye blue
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 210 lbs
Occupation: Swordsman.
Personality: A proud man and worldly ignorant. Aliander takes most things seriously and can sometimes struggle to see a joke presented in front of him.
Appearance: Aliander stands tall and tight, built of a lifestyle lacking the sweeter things. His wiry frame is supported with thick bunches of muscle about his arms and upper torso. His head is covered with fair ginger hair which has been chopped, unevenly, out of the way of his pale blue eyes. Seen most often in a protective leather vest over a simple white shirt and a kilt of dark green and light blue which falls to his knees. With everyday wear, this is completed with heavy looking boots.
History:"You want to go anywhere in this world? You gotta be more than just a swordsman." Were the words his father was most fond of and they marked the beginning of a particularly grueling day of traditional training and back-breaking work. A mark of family pride was their role in the royal guard and how they had been an unbroken chain from the beginning, until the guard was dissolved after the civil war, a pride that Aliander shared. Even though the guard had ended, the Slayn men were still learned and trained in literacy, combat and the arcane. A background of knowledge which granted a boy coming of age a solid grounding for for the rest of his life.
Aliander left home on his 23rd birthday, on a pilgrimage of knowledge. The goal: to acquire lost lore or an ancient artifact, great enough to prove his worth. His future will be measured by his results.
Skills: Swordsmanship training (18yrs)(Rapier + Claymore sword) Novice marksmanship, Hunting, Literacy, language (Sylvan, Common), Juggling, cooking, dancing, wind instruments.
Abilities: Lightning lance. Three (3x) a day, Aliander can build and release a force of magical energy which shoots in a straight line towards the intended target in the form of an instantaneous lightning bolt. Burning through leather armor and tunneling through flesh with relative ease.
Shield. Four (4x) a day Aliander can push arcane energy into a full length, dome shaped shield in front of him with the physical strength of iron which also pulls assaults to the side and back, taking his opponent by surprise and off balance.
Mental Vigor. After years of physical and mental training, Aliander's mental fortitude allows him to enter a meditative state which will fully rest him from heavy fatigue in three hours.
Equipment: Basic traveling supplies are often in a hiking bag, or saddled with the horse. Often comprised of a bed roll, rations and a pot. With his attire, Alliander's common supplies include;
A small iron knife kept in his boot,
A steel Rapier, gifted on his departure for Slavar,
An oak bow.
