Love should be easy, but it's not. Hate should be hard, but it's easy.

~Tanya Tucker

Basic Info:

Full name: Rath Graitz
Age: 18
Hair: Short, tangled, and brownish-red
Eyes: dark brown
Height: 6'1 feet
Weight 236 lbs
Race: Human


Appearance:

If a total stranger were to encounter Rath, they would percieve him as a raggedy wanderer, wearing torn denim pants and a loose shirt. Without giving even a second look, one would be able to discern that Rath had his way with the ladies, with his chiseled pecs and biceps dazzling even the stiffest feminist. His long-necked boots finished his look, enveloping his feet as if they were holy and not meant to see the light of day. Rath's look suited him, but not for the obvious reasons.


Personality:

While Rath may seem like a chick magnet on the outside, his personality is completely opposite. Ever since he was a little baby, Rath had never felt a connection with the opposite sex. Even while his childhood friends ran off with girls left and right, he never found himself desiring any of it. As his polarity with girls increased, so did his frustration. He expected himself to be infatuated with girls one day, but as the days became weeks, and the weeks became months, and the months became years, Rath's attitude darkened, until it came to the point where he decided that he could no longer stand by and watch his fellow kin with women. He eventually came to adopt his look so that women would want him, but he already knew that they had no chance. While he lived his life, he would be the worst bastard possible to women, because he could not appreciate them for who they were.

<Rath currently has no personal friends that have affected his personality at the time.>


Equipment (Weapons, Accessories, and the like):

Iron Sword: Rath stole this sword from an inn during a bar fight. He always knew that he would need something to defend himself with, and he thought that this sword would do him the duty, should it ever come to that. It currently rests on Rath's backside, hanging from a makeshift sling that he crafted to keep it in place. ((pic (http://www.gamesover.com/PoP_3/pop_8_2_16.jpg)))

A small piece of parchment: Rolled tightly and closed with a wax seal, this parchment is the sole secret that Rath cannot keep permanent track of. It holds information dear to his heart. Held in a small pouch which hangs from Rath's waist.


Skills: (Basically, the skills section is going to outline Rath's progress each each skill he knows as he adopts it. It is not going to have a set scale or anything like that, it will just explain his proficiency with the skill and any exceptions or benefits included with such experience)

Sword Mastery: Rath has just barely picked up his first sword, and so has no idea of the world of combat he is about to enter into.

Hand-Eye Co-ordination: Although he has never done any active exercises, Rath's ability is above-average. He has the ability to keep his brain roughly in tune with his motions, which can be nothing but beneficial for him once he does engage in a swordfight.

Endurance/Agility: While not the same thing, one thing Rath has noted is that his endurance and agility are strangely intertwined. His endurance is not exceptional at the moment, but his agility is above-average, which helps make up for the amount of time he is able to remain active. Rath plans to train himself to raise both his endurance and his agility, as he notes both attributes are important to building a person's "outer" character.


History:

Rath was born to Helena and Valkan Gaitz, in the cozy town of Mopean, on the outskirts of Corone. He grew up with a large group of kids that spent all day together, joking and laughing. While Rath enjoyed himself, he could sense that the other boys were growing closer individually to each of the girls as they all got into their teens, and Rath didn't have that. As the years went by, his resentment for the group grew, and once they all graduated high school, he left the town indefinitely without a word, and began to search for something more interesting that would suppress his malcontent.

((please tell me if you need more history, otherwise please edit this out))
