Name: Liao Wei (Styled Shuohan)
Age: 41
Race: Human
Physical Description
- Height: 6’2’’
- Weight: 213 lbs
- Eyes: Darker shade of brown
- Build: Muscular and toned physique, albeit age mixed with countless battles has left his skin ragged, scarred, and beaten.
- Clothing: Usually seen wearing plated armour, in a style that resembled that of imperial guardians. A chest piece effectively covers his torso and abdomen, and has several regal patterns marked finely onto the breast, each lined with a beautiful silver shine. Similar styled gauntlets and greaves cover his limbs, each with spaces at the joints to allow for considerable mobility. A beautifully adorned helm sits atop his skull, with a deep blue plume erupting from its crown, and draping down Wei’s shoulders. To complete this uniform, a velvety blue cape hangs down from his frame, lined with a bright golden thread, the whole garment just skimming the ground as he walks.
- Misc: His shoulder length dark hair is usually bound up in a tight knot atop his head, both out of safety within battle, and as a testament to his reverent demeanour.
Personality: Stalwart and stern, Liao Wei walks with a sense of reverence for all things deserving of it. Having short tolerance for inefficiency and rudeness, he takes pride in showing his own sense of unwavering duty in the face of those less committed. Despite this perceived nobility, Wei has a taste for alcohol, often leading him to a cruel streak of both physical and psychological abuse. Due to his stalwart nature, Wei is conservative minded, and regularly disapproved of any radical change to the norm, voicing his opinion when needed. What words the man does use are sharp, succinct, and precise.
Abilities: (Not too sure on any potential limitations on magical powers here, so tell me if I’m a bit over the top)
Liao Wei’s primary strength is his skill in man-to-man combat. He wields a 7 foot long spear as his main instrument of destruction, whilst 2 short swords rest at his hips should the situation deem it necessary. His quick reflexes and sturdy power make for a deadly opponent within close range.
Aside from this, he seems to have acquired the ability to alter the current weather. Whilst he cannot go as far as generating cataclysmic tidal waves and volcano eruptions, with enough focus he can bring about lightning strikes and torrential rain. Wind storms are also a possibility, as is a brighter alternative - a scorching hot sun. Because of the enormity of this ability, the cost is of his own energy; the greater the effect, the more fatiguing it is for Wei and his mind. As such he uses it sparingly, preferring to save both his physical and mental strength for more practical uses.
History: (I’ll be brief, he’s got a long history that is kinda hard to describe without decent context)
A highly skilled veteran of countless wars, Liao Wei has learnt that life is tough, and the only way to beat it is by being tougher.. And perhaps through alcohol. In his lifetime he has served a variety of skilled warlords to the best abilities, garnering wide attention from friend and foe alike for both his brilliant mind and adept skill with weaponry. He has few close friends, and even fewer living relations; his closest companion was his brother, Wen Wei, whom at the moment is not to be found. Having little time for marriage (albeit ample time for casual women), Liao Wei never managed to foster his own family; instead, a young girl by the name of Ling Xao became somewhat of a daughter to him after she sought his training. Following the death of his last master, Wei now travels to new lands, in search for untold goals.
