Name:
Benjamin Prideaux
Age:
28
Race:
Human
Physical Description:
It is nearly impossible for him to hide his origin. One look at his neatly kept, shoulder length, golden hair. Coupled with eyes that are a deep blue colour, like that of the sea, and a face unmarred by scratches and scars clearly tell to all who gaze upon him that he comes from some sort of noble lineage. This young man named Benjamin stands at 6 feet tall, weighs about 180 pounds and has an athletic build.
His weapon of choice is one that is used only by fools or experts, namely the elegant rapier. The beautiful, silver pommel guard is outlined with several rubies and both the guard and blade look extremely well taken care off.
His clothing makes him look the way he wants people to think of him; A spoiled brat. The pants appear to be simple and plain at first sight, but it’s extraordinaire color gives away the fact that most people wouldn’t wear it, it’s dark purple and on the side of his legs a red silk substance is sewed in it, which gives away it’s made by a true craftsman.
His shirt is crafted the same way as his trousers; purple with on the outside of his arms the same red silk substance sewed in it. Over his shirt he generally sports a rather short jacket, it’s edges are the same dark purple, but it’s mostly made out of a lighter purple. On the back is his family crest, two lions facing each other with a sword in between.
The red substance is also found in his jacket, this time a bit more subtle; only a 2 inch wide line on his collar. He also wears a red silk belt just below his jacket, with a rather expensive looking golden buckle. On his hands he wears fine woven blue, purple gloves, the same goes for his boots, though these contain a golden emblem on the heel.
Personality:
Arrogant and obnoxious. That’s how just about everyone would describe him who just met him or hardly know him. It’s more or less of an act he keeps up to fool his possible enemies, they usually think he is a spoiled noble kid, so he decided to just play along with that image people created of him. People that know him better, like his servants and bodyguards back home know that he is a kind young man. The sound of his voice and his accent make him seem even more arrogant, and it sounds somewhat like what we call French.
History:
Benjamin grew up in a noble land. Noble does not necessarily mean rich however. Most of these people may pretend to be of noble origin, but most reached it the hard way; By scamming, gambling and sometimes even murder or are merely keeping up appearances to seem important. Although his father says he never murdered anyone he still has a lot of enemies that want him dead. His father is really good in scamming in card games, he noticed that his son Benjamin has the same eye as he did and therefore decided to teach him from a young age, hoping he would one day become his successor.
Unfortunately Benjamin had other interests; the way of the sword. His father employed several bodyguards for the protection of his family and himself, apparently Benjamin’s quick mind made him a fine swordsman and therefore the bodyguards, one person specifically decided to teach him how to handle the rapier.
Last but not last, he inherited his mother’s skill; enchanting. He has the ability to change the ability of an object, for instance he can harden a playing card, making it as sharp as a blade. Or make a throwing knife explode upon impact. It’s limitation is the size of the object, a playing card he can enchant almost instantly, the throwing knife however which is a little bigger takes about a second.
Although Benjamin became really good or even better at scamming and playing cards like his father, his passion lies elsewhere; in physical challenges. Therefore he ‘hijacked’ a ship of his father and left with his own crew in search of adventure.
