Name
Rylan Aberon (Rai-laan Ah-bur-on)
Age
24
Race
Half-Elf
Appearance
Additional Appearance Info
Has two tattoos - one signifying his master and another signifying the Assassin who taught him. They appear thus:
(top: base of skull; sides: shoulders; bottom: lower back) From his master
and from the Assassin (inner left forearm).
He also has a light scar across his left eye (hidden in picture by hair) from his hunt for those responsible for the destruction of his village. When his hair isn't tied down it falls straight to just below his shoulders as a typical elf's would, but his is black.
His boots come up to just below his knees.
Personality
Rather fun-loving and witty, he was raised by accepting parents (an elf father and human mother) and had a good upbringing, making his personality kind. However, despite his laid-back attitude, he is intelligent and calculating - a tough adversary in combat.
He is also quite shrewd in bargains, deals, and trading and has the charismatic air to match such behaviour. His kindness and charisma mixed make him good with women too, though he tries not to exploit that ability too much.
History
Born in a small, uncharted village, he was taught the farmers' way and was a peaceful boy. Over the years of relaxed upbringing and the peaceful community, he started to get a bit anxious and unsatisfied with his life. Going out of his village at 16, he explored the world for years, encountering a master that taught him unarmed combat, staff combat, and swordsmanship. Using these new skills only for self-defense, he went back to his village at the age of 22 only to find it had been burned down.
In a bout of rage, he tracked down those responsible and slaughtered them, though it did not bring them back, he felt his family and friends had been avenged. Now he is a simple adventurer and sometimes bounty hunter doing odd jobs and contracts here and there from bartending to killing rich tyrant noble families for large sums of money, but never taking from the houses unless the employer designates an heirloom or scroll to be brought back.
During his training as a bounty hunter, he was almost assassinated but instead of being killed, he was taught their ways and he learned how to be unseen and move swift as the wind along 'alternate' routes of travel. It has helped his bounty hunting jobs greatly.
His one condition: Never kill the innocent. Children are to be spared, and women as long as they do not attack.
Additional Information
Equipment
- Hand-and-a-half sword, hung on right side of waist due to left-handedness.
- Staff shown in picture, used mostly as a walking stick.
- Metal Cestus on each hand for unarmed combat (not shown in picture).
- Chainmail armour underneath clothes.
Magic
- Healing (anything under a severed limb).
- Fire control (but not spontaneous summoning).
- Lightning control (transformed from fire, requires great concentration).
Skills
- Swordsmanship
- Staff combat
- Unarmed combat
- Potion making
- Cooking
- Farming
- Sneaking
- Freerunning
Weaknesses
- Prone to fits of rage when parents are insulted, especially by name.
- Side effects of trying to heal wounds greater than a 1-inch deep cut over 6inches in length and/or multiple wounds of this type at once or multiple wounds that are more that 1/2 inch deep and 4 inches long may include but are not limited to:
...infection
...incomplete healing
...drowsiness (of healer or healed or both)
...dizziness (same as above)
...vomiting, sore throat, nosebleeds, fever, etc.
Basically, don't try it.
- Lightning control as said takes a long time to concentrate and is a vulnerable state if one should attack at this time.
- Chainmail armour is basic and breaks with enough force.
- Anything really any other human can suffer; poison, bone breakage, wounds, etc. but he is slightly more resistant to bone breakage from training and farming.
Likes
- Playing guitar though he does not own one (random hobby)
- Nature
- Freerunning
- Night time
- Dragons (at least through mythology)
Dislikes
- Murderers (though he technically is one. Go figure.)
- Bad guitarists
- Unsportsmanlike conduct in a polite swordfight
- Disrespect of deceased parents
- Disrespect of deceased parents by name (more so)
