Name: Valient Stark
Age: 32
Race: Human
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Dark Blue
Height: 6'5
Weight: 320 lbs
Occupation: Professional Fighter

Personality:
Valient is a natural fighter, and his attitude reflects that. He is strong of will and stubborn as an ox. Rarely does he back down from a fight and often lets his ego get the best of him. He harbors few friends, but many friendly rivals. He sees friends as a weakness, and even should he come close, he quickly uses the excuse that they are simply someone to watch his back.

Appearance:
Valient's hair is cropped close to his scalp, but it obvious what color it is. His eyes are a dark blue and challenge can always be seen in them. He is a muscular individual and the source of most his weight. However, to the eyes he is no small character. His face is chisled and well defined, giving him a refined and handsome look, however the many scars upon it give him a forboding and dangerous visage.

History:

Valient was born in a small town not far from the Zirnden. From an early age he was thrust into the training to be a champion fighter. His father died at an early age by unknown causes, and he still seeks the truth behind his death. His mother died of her grief not long after.

Valient began fighting shortly after his father died, and used his anger and rage at his father's death to propel himself to the status of one of the strongest fist fighters. However, he pushes himself so much that he tends to pick fights for the silliest reasons.

Valient hates to lose fights, and rarely will he not take vengeance for his loss, or his embarassment for that matter. However, if he is beaten fair and is obviously over-powered, though he will not openly show it, he gains a strong respect for the person and strives to defeat them later.

Valient has not strayed far from the Zirnden in his life, seeing it as the best place to hone and master his fighting ability, however, he harbors a rarely known dream to travel the world and study in more ancient forms of fighting.

Skills:

Fist Fighting: Through years of training, Valient has learned the basics in fist fighting techniques.

Dagger Wielding: Valient knows the basic uses of his twin daggers.

Stamina: Valient can receive more damage than normal men and still be able to fight.

Weapons:
~Twin Silver Daggers: Two daggers with silver handles and 10 inch steel blades.

Armor:
~Studded Leather Jerkin: A studded leather vest.
~Studded Leather Pants: A Pair of studded leather pants.

None

You can't be a master of fist fighting at level zero, sorry. The best I can allow is above average, and only if he is bellow average in dagger wielding.

Also, you sure you want your daggers to be made out of silver? Silver is not the sturdiest material around. Either way, if you want them made of silver, you won't be allowed to sell them because silver is rather pricy. If you don't, you can make them iron or steel.

Changed master to "versed" simply meaning he knows how to fist fight... and i changed the daggers to silver handles and steel blades.

Good?

Hmm... Actually, versed by definition means thoroughly acquainted and skilled with something, not just he knows how to fight. I understand that it's sometimes difficult to make the abilities fit the character at level zero, but we have a balance to uphold. And no character at level zero can be thoroughly skilled with something.

So, you're going to have to tone it down a bit more to above average. Perhaps you don't mean to rp your character as a thoroughly skilled fist-fighter, but the current definition leaves a loophole that enables you to do so. And I don't like loopholes.
