Berserk

Name: Renuath Astrophel (A given name. His true name is held secret.)
Age: 18
Race: Dör Unicorn.
Hair Color: Green
Eye Color: Red
Height: 5'5"
Weight: 170 lbs.
Occupation: Bludgeoner.
Personality
Ren is a little absent minded at times, and loves to hear things crunch under his mace. His moods tend to swing dramatically, though stay at one end of the spectrum or the other (Happy, angry, or sad, and once in a great while serious). The unicorn has a bad habit of starting fights, especially when he gets bored, which certainly isn't uncommon for his race, since they tend to be naturally aggressive, as they are carnivores. He loves meat, whether cooked or raw, and has something of a soft spot for chocolate, like most of his people.
Appearance
Humanoid in shape, if a little short for his age, Ren has moon pale skin and green hair, of which most is swept back over his skull to fall to the back of his neck, save for two shaped bangs that frame his face. For someone so violent, he certainly doesn't fit the bill; his facial features maintain something of the innocence of youth, Though when he smiles, his naturally pointed teeth show, and his red eyes narrow, making him look menacing, despite his soft look. Usually, he garbs himself in a red long coat with a high, static collar, which does well to hide his frame. His body is toned and powerful, though built more for endurance than speed. Beneath the coat he wears a pair of brown leather slacks and a sleeveless white shirt.
History
The Dör Unicorn were created ages ago by the Thayne as something of a pre-thought to the modern races of the present. They were frightening and strong creatures, affiliated with Hromagh, though kept mainly to the countrysides, preferring to be left alone to their own customs. Equine creatures, with crooked, loose looping horns, and a mouth like a crocodiles, the Dör were able to assume a humanoid form and often did so to venture amongst the pre-races, often to find battles to sate their boredom.
For an unclear reason, the Dör vanished from Althanas some time before the War of the Tap. As they were mostly a secluded people, no one really took notice of it.

The Dör Unicorn that would come to be called Renuath Astrophel was found fourteen years ago years ago suspended in a block of ice by a Doctor Yrastid. Since the Dör were known for being immortal, despite still being susceptible to all that damned flesh, it was theorized by the doctor that he was able to sleep in this stasis instead of simply freezing to death thanks to his hearty heritage. The doctor further theorized that the Dör Unicorn emigrated to Salvar when their kind was being enslaved with copper for use in the War of the Tap. There, not accustomed to the bitter cold, they began to weaken and died off. Ren's young mind couldn't manage to recall what had happened to him before being frozen. Disappointed, the doctor nonetheless took him in as a surrogate child.
As he grew, Ren was given monthly physicals to monitor and record his progress. Once he reached the natural age of puberty, Ren's aggression levels sky rocketed, and he became incredibly territorial, at times chasing away and injuring visitors to the doctor's laboratory. The doctor, aging, and beginning to lose his wits, threatened to restrain the boy with copper, ignorant that Renuath was not his true name, after he broke the leg of a visiting noble. Already having been growing restless, Ren simply left the old man to die in Salvar, moving towards Corone in his wander lust.
Skills
Earthen Influence - Ren has the ability to make all plants in a nearby vicinity of himself grow, and at a slightly accelerated rate; while it has no use in a combat situation, he can help people by making their wilting plants flourish if he should so wish. Also, it may make a weak willed, or insecure opponent uneas, seeing the grass flourish at his feet, to fight a force of nature, though he's far from it, yet. He is also able to control earthly elements, such as soil, stone, wood, and metal, though his ability there is very weak. He could use it to trace designs or words in sand without ever touching it, maybe levitate a few small stone under three pounds and hurl them forward, or lift an unclaimed metal or wooden object six inches off the ground.
Bludgeoner - Ren is above average in the use of blunt weapons, and has an average skill in defending himself unarmed. There is no definite style to his combat; only swing until you feel something give. Additionally, Ren is one and a half times stronger than the average, full grown man.
Weaknesses
Ren is highly susceptible, as is all of his race, to copper. Considered to be the mela closest to fire, perhaps due to it's excellent conductivity, and is his personal bane. Ren can not even handle copper coins with his bare hands, as they will burn his skin. Copper arrows, blades, and copper-chain weapons are highly effective in repelling, subduing, or slaying Ren.
Additionally, he can be tamed and enslaved completely to another's will, though can only be accomplished by copper. Two things are required to successfully tame Ren--the true name of the boy and a collar made of pure copper (or copper-chain-links). The tamer must first get the collar onot Ren's neck, which is no easy feat, and then must call him by his true name, a closely guarded secret. Once tamed, the collar will no longer cause him pain, and he will be in the tamer's service until their death.
Equipment
Morning Star - A heavy, spiked iron mace of no questionable nature.
Ring Mail - A steel shirt of ring mail, worn under his coat.
