[color=red][b]Age:[/b][/color] 26 [color=red][b]Gender:[/b][/color] Male [color=red][b]Sexuality:[/b][/color] Heterosexual [color=red][b]Country:[/b][/color] Sagewick [color=red][b]Occupation:[/b][/color] Eridian was a Vassal Knight in the employ of a Fuedal Lord, but when his Master died, Eridian became a blade for hire. [.hr] [color=red][b]Appearance:[/b][/color] Eridian is normally seen with his neck-length black hair, slicked back. He has a notable scar on his chin and many others covering his arms and torso. When he isnt wearing his armor, he's normally wearing a black tunic with the red sigil of his lord patched onto the shoulder, leather trousers, tough boots and a heavy, hooded cloak. [color=red][b]Background:[/b][/color] Eridian was born to an Imperial Knight by the name of Mythras Karkand. When Mythras was murdered, when Eridian was only 8, his Father's friend, Lord Nimerius Sedgefoot, took him in and trained him to be a Knight. However, Nimerius was also murdered by a rival lord when Eridian was 24. Eridian met his dragon, Garaxes, when he was 17. He was on his first border dispute mission for his Master, where he stumbled upon a cave, during a heavy storm. Entering the cave, Eridian beheld a massive dragon curled up, asleep on the cave floor. Struck with fear, Eridian began to back away, before stepping on a dry bone, cracking it in half and waking the great beast. The dragon stood, towering over Eridian, and holding his gaze for a good half hour. Eridian felt if this was to be his death, it was to be noble so he stared right back at the dragon, not flinching. After holding each other's gaze, the dragon leaned down and touched the tip of his nose to Eridian's forehead and, at that moment, Eridian's entire world changed. He heard things from the perspective of a Dragon, understood the world as the Dragon did. "I am Garaxes, Eridian Karkand. And you are my Listener." [.hr] [color=red][b]Strengths:[/b][/color] [indent][color=red]》[/color] Swordplay. Eridian was known as the best Swordsman among Lord Sedgefoot’s Knights. [color=red]》[/color] Eridian is extremely good with people which he can use to his advantage in many ways. Making friends is easy for him but he also has a charm about him that makes people just want to listen to him. [color=red]》[/color] Eridian is a brilliant tactician, both on the battlefield and in the council chambers. He was well on his way to becoming Lord Sedgefoot’s Captain due to these skills. [/indent] [color=red][b]Weaknesses:[/b][/color] [indent][color=red]》[/color] Eridian has a temper that can easily be taken advantage of. His father and Lord Sedgefoot are very sensitive subjects for him and he’s been known to beat people bloody for talking low of these men. [color=red]》[/color] Eridian’s friendliness and trusting nature act as a double edged sword. He is extremely protective, causing him to be blinded by his bonds with others, as well as allowing him to be manipulated easily. [color=red]》[/color] Eridian also had a drinking problem in the early days of Lord Sedgefoot’s death. He has been sober for many months but relapse is definitely a possibility. [/indent] [color=red][b]Equipment:[/b][/color] [indent][color=red]》[/color] Sunclaw, Lord Sedgefoot’s legendary sword that he gave to Eridian shortly before his death. [color=red]》[/color] Blackened steel armor emblazoned with the red lion sigil of Lord Sedgefoot. [color=red]》[/color] His horse, a black stallion. His saddlebags carry the rest of Eridian’s equipment, including his food and tent.

As a human, Garaxes is an extremely well-muscled man with clean trimmed black hair and a neat black beard. His eyes remain red. [color=black][b]Background:[/b][/color] Garaxes was born 153 years ago, high on a mountain. He was left by both his parents to learn how to survive on his own, a task that he took to well. He rarely left his Dragon form, enjoying the freedom of his wings to the constrictions of his legs. He remained around the same mountains that he was born in until he met Eridian. [.hr] [color=black][b]Strengths:[/b][/color] [indent][color=black]》[/color] Garaxes obvious strength is just that, his strength. He is extremely well built and could probably lift a smaller dragon with his bare hands. [color=black]》[/color] As a Dragon, Garaxes has the ability to expel massive torrents of flame from his jaws. [color=black]》[/color] Garaxes is extremely loyal to his friends. [/indent] [color=black][b]Weaknesses:[/b][/color] [indent][color=black]》[/color] Garaxes is a little bigheaded and egotistical. [color=black]》[/color] He has a temper that is even sharper than his Listener’s. [color=black]》[/color] He is extremely frivolous, some may even say lewd. [/indent] [/hider] Watcha think? [@Leoven]
