Probably going to have to redo the tone of this one. or not. it depends. I am in that mood where I think making a drinking like a fish joke with Naija, a random pub and the funeral would amuse me no-matter how dumb that would be for the narrative. unless some other chars want to go to a bar instead of a big ceremony.

[color=4bbeff]Character Name[/color]: Taric: The Shield of Valoran

[color=4bbeff]Kingdom[/color]: Riot Games

[color=4bbeff]Visual Description[/color]:

[color=4bbeff]Written Description[/color]: Taric has long flowing hair, a strong jaw line, lots of muscles and he is left handed. He wears something in between a toga and plate mail, fully armored below the belt, which is itself a defective metal barrier protecting his belly and other important bits, yet past that it seems he decided, nah, they got to be able to see my smoking hot body. His left arm and shoulders are the only armor up there, the rest of him is basically exposed to the elements, wearing a small cloth shirt that deliberately exposes his pecs to the world and his right arm is bare, presumably so he can flex while he clubs people with his mace. He also has a sweet cape.

He is at all times escorted by a number of floating gemstones from which the magic he uses flows. They are probably the reason he gets away with being a tanking character while not wearing a breastplate, magically empowering him to take the hits that would fell a lesser man.

Tl;dr fabulous. 

[color=4bbeff]Personality[/color]: A charismatic and somewhat flamboyant individual Taric is a man with a fascination and admiration for beauty in all its forms and a staunch defender of it. He is a protector both by choice and by divine command, of individuals but also of things the The Protector dreams worth preserving. Anything from a member of an endangered species to a piece of artwork or a musician's songs are things he would gladly fight to protect with equal vigor as saving the innocents of the land.

His muscles and magic are not the only tools for preservation, many a marvel has been saved by his quick wit and roguish charms, explaining to a hunter that he might drive the dreamstag to extinction and maybe he should that something else till their population recovers or stopping a brawl that threatened to start a fire that burned down an ancient city with his presence and force of word stunning the fighters and ending the conflict.  


[color=4bbeff]Game[/color]: League of Legends

[color=4bbeff]Current Story[/color]: He has been traveling the land under the Protectors direction, saving cool stuff, protecting the people and kicking ass. Simultaneously he has been doing MOBA things in the League of Legends, which is an institution does not exist in the game's narrative yet is 100% of it’s gameplay. League’s plot is completely disjointed from the actual game, it’s a bit weird. Anyway, he is here in platform city to protect the multiverse, because losing all that beauty would be tragic.

[color=4bbeff]General Abilities[/color]

[color=4bbeff]Slot One[/color]: 
[color=4bbeff]Bastion[/color]: when cast this spell links Taric and another character, both receive a defensive crystalline barrier for a few seconds that can absorb damage. The target is then escorted by a number of floating gems till they move some distance away or the spell is recast on a new target. Taric’s other magical abilities, when cast, will be cast from both him and the gem escorted ally (heal and invincibility zone around both and shimmering beam of light shooting from both.) The effects do not stack however. 1 cast every two rounds. Shield strength is based on Taric’s own defensive stats.

[color=4bbeff]Items[/color]:
null

[color=4bbeff]Strengths[/color]:

[color=4bbeff]Strong as the Mountain[/color]: A highly capable and powerful warrior even before he became the aspect of the protector Taric has muscle like no other and he knows how to use them to full effect. 

[color=4bbeff]Charismatic[/color]: with a winning smile and friendly demeanor Taric is a good man to chose if you're aiming to end a situation non-violently. 

[color=4bbeff]Chosen of the protector[/color]: The protector, represented by the floating gems that are following him at all times, and is the source of all Taric’s magical abilities. This gives him a somewhat easier time handling such magics, conjuring divine healing or dazzling light at the flick of a wrist rather than at the end of an incantation.

[color=4bbeff]The mountain endures[/color]: The test to become the aspect of the protector is a grueling one, Taric was mentally assaulted by innumerable impossible scenarios many of which resulted in his death as he fought to protect others. While they were not real, nothing Taric could possibly face will phase him. He has held onto his convictions through far worse than reality can throw at him. 

[color=4bbeff]Weaknesses[/color]:

[color=4bbeff]Orange and Blue [s]Morality[/s] Priorities[/color]: Is required to protect beauty and while he is not going to stop fighting world destroying entities because they are trampling the daisies while fighting they will not condone plans or actions that put precious things in danger and is liable to run into burning libraries to save poetry. This is probably considered a bit odd by most. Similarly he will not stand by and watch as innocents or beauty are threatened, no matter the odds he will put himself in harm's way where there might be more sensible options.

[color=4bbeff]Support character[/color]: He can take the hits and keep you safe but don’t expect him to also deal that much damage. Sure he can smash some heads and keep the bad guys pined with his magic but you better hope there's a damage dealer nearby or these fights are going to be one hell of a slug fest.

[color=4bbeff]Low Mobility[/color]: Not exactly the fastest or most agile thing on two legs, he’s going to be taking those hits more often than not. Dodging just ain’t his style, a protector stands firmly between danger and the weak.
