[hider=Sable][center][img=http://i.imgur.com/JN6KhmR.png][/center] [b]Name:[/b] Sable, the Red-Eyed Ghost [b]Age:[/b] 19 [b]Personality:[/b] Sable generally has two expressions written on her face: neutral and frowning. Given her current situation, what with being forced to rot in a prison for god knows how long, it kinda makes sense on her part. Perhaps at one time she was more kind-hearted and generally less stoic. Maybe. Now though, she'd much rather just not talk to anyone at any time or anywhere. As an assassin greatly feared throughout the different nations, Sable is a killer with a stone face. Often, the last thing her victims see before their passages into death are her cold visage and blank red eyes. Sable appears cold and apathetic, and to some extent she really is, only allowing her mind to focus on tasks at hand. She especially has a great hatred for nobility and Crescentia in general due to the nation’s role in the Great Wars. Now say, perhaps she was kinder back in her past? If that were the case, one would think that maybe that more tolerable, maybe even sweeter, side of herself is just lying dormant somewhere deep inside. That makes sense, right? Maybe she's just shy. And maybe she really does feel something whenever she kills. [b]History:[/b] Sable hailed from a small kingdom in the nation of Rexicorg. Thinking of times like those wrought in the past, the assassin can vaguely say that life was indeed peaceful for a while. Starting out as a knight in service to the Hollot Kingdom, she served her own princess in the line of honor and duty. And for that portion of her early life, she was happy. However, her story was fated to be riddled with tragedy upon tragedy. At a young age, Sable’s best friend Adrian was promptly taken by the land of Crescentia as a war prisoner. Back then, the Great Wars-a series of religious crusades to determine which nation was the true voice of the Dytenziextity-were still in action, only being quenched in the last couple of years. As such, Adrian was reportedly tortured to death in those dark times, forever souring Sable’s view on the Crescentia kingdom. More recently, an organization known only as the Imperium descended onto her homeland in the hopes of conquering it. At this time, Sable was already a trained knight under the kingdom of Hoton. During one of the night raids, Imperium soldiers dragged away her younger sister in the battle, beckoning her to seek them out. Once she did, she was offered a choice. Betray her homeland or watch her sister be killed on the spot. The answer was obvious. Sable disposed of her kingdom’s ruler with a quick blade and a heavy heart. That was all that was needed, as chaos soon engulfed the nation without its leader, making it ideal for the Imperium’s complete invasion. So began her downward spiral into a history of unneeded bloodshed. Her new purpose was clear. She was to be a spy, infiltrating kingdoms and assassinating their leaders from within, making way for her new leader to ride unopposed. To go from a knight of nobility and to be reduced into a filthy killer….shameful. And so she locked away all traces of her humanity, choosing to end her victims under the visage of a emotionless killer. The Red-Eyed Ghost was born and since then, she’s spread fear and paranoia across the lands. Her latest mission involved an attempt to assassinate the lone princess of Crescentia. Only time will tell how that particular encounter will play out… [b]Weapons:[/b] Sable carries with her a sheathed sword, much akin to a sword of Eastern descent. It serves as a reminder of her own fall from grace and the pathetic shell she now is today. As a former knight turned assassin, she is trained expertly in the art of swordplay. The weapon, nicknamed “Loveless”, is actually a specialty made from her homeland of Rexicorg. It was the first of many prototypes in developing weapons which could counter the forces of magic. As such, “Loveless” is essentially a sword that feeds on magic; using magic against Sable in a fight will not bring her enemies an advantage. [b]Abilities:[/b] In terms of other powers and abilities, Sable can only rely on her physical prowess and skill with the blade. Having both an official knight’s training as well as adapting more unorthodox methods from being an assassin at her calling aid, she is a deadly foe to fear indeed. Sable is most adept in striking down opponents from the shadows, using camouflage and secrecy to kill her targets quickly and efficiently. Finally, Sable is a master of the sword, having honed her skills to the point where she can cut down oncoming projectiles such as arrows. [b]Other:[/b] Obviously, Sable is not her real name. Rather, it was one chosen by her shortly after the slaughter of her kingdom and her early days serving the Imperium. [/hider]
