Name: Ouros Age: 27 Gender: M Appearance: Ouros is as life has made him, hard. His jaw is firm and well-formed, his nose sharp, lips that frown naturally. His brow seems hewn from granite itself, so sharply dos it angle down to his eyes, eyes that are as pools of obsidian, so dark as to be black. He is a fairly tall man, standing at a respectable 6’2”, though his build is lean and slight; the sort of muscle one gets from fighting to survive, not from a gym. His hair is long and light brown, gathered in a ragged ponytail. Clothes vary wildly based on availability, the poor do not have the luxury of an expansive wardrobe. He’ll invariably gravitate towards utilitarian smocks, however, as his life never taught him to appreciate luxury. The exception, however, is his footwear as he will go to great lengths to ensure that he always has a pair of comfortable boots. Never know when you might need them. Hometown: Lifan Personality: To-the-point, often to the point of being rude; Ouros was never raised with social nicety in mind (or raised whatsoever, for that matter). He’s distrusting and not ashamed to say it, he’ll never lie about how he feels about others. He’s honest, except when he’s cheating you, and would (and probably has) do anything to survive. He can come off as impulsive, but it’s a result of him having had to learn to think fast or risk pain, or worse. He’s actually calm to the point of being unnerving, and if he is legitimately panicking, you should have fled long ago. He is absolutely unrelenting to his enemies, and would never bat an eyelash to hurt or kill anyone who has made themselves so, rightly or wrongly. His entire mindset has grown up around survival, and without outside influence to teach him about the more “nice” parts of human life, those feelings are utterly absent, or warped. He knows lust, but not love. He understands debt, but not loyalty. He knows to relent, but not to show mercy. He can forgive, but would never show grace. Relic Description: A bracelet, granted to him by his mother prior to her untimely death. It has grown as he has; a fact he’s noticed but never wondered about. He has absolutely no idea it’s a relic, and only serves as a keepsake to him. Starting Natrelmon: Mythin Starting Spell Schools: Gishiki, Invocation, Kazemancy History: Fate is a fickle mistress, blessing those who should be cursed and cursing those that had never wronged her. Such is the case for Ouros, who was orphaned before he even really knew who his parents were. Once he lived happily in Lifan, with parents that loved and adored him, even to the point of making questionable life decisions in order to support him. They had always been poor, and when he grew ill as a baby, they soon found themselves indebted to the wrong sort of people just to pay for his life. Sometimes, in the dim nights of Lifan’s undercity, Ouros wonders at whether his parents would have been willing to pay that debt had they known the cost was their lives. Before he even understood the situation, Ouros had been snatched from his parent’s grasp as they were dragged away, left only with the bracelet his mother had frantically left him moments before. While he’d never seen the bodies, the bosses had been quite explicit as to their fate. From that day on, Ouros was a scion of the underworld, never again to know the succor of hearth or home. He has stolen, he has cheated, and he has killed, all in the name of continued survival. Survival and revenge. For while Ouros holds no affection for the parents he never knew, he also allows no man to cross him, no man to take what is his. The crime bosses took his family, his childhood. One day, he swears, he will repay their children in kind. Professions: Mage, Scholar Noteworthy Skills: Survival skills, in both urban and rural environments. Acrobatics; Ouros has lived his life among the steel trusses of the big city he’s comfortable climbing and jumping in conditions that would make most men fear for their lives. Basically, it’s safe to assume that if there is a skill that would be required for surviving in any sort of harsh conditions, or required for escaping/combatting others, Ouros has at least an idea of how it’s done. + Ouros+ + Party Natrelmon + 1) Ersatz (Mythari) - Male - 20 - 8350 Money: 25,000 N Spell Schools: - Rank III Gishiki - 1500 - Rank III Invocation - 1500 -Rank III Kazemancy - 1500 Gifts - Items - Heirloom Relic A (Bracelet) Profession: - Rank III Scholar - 1500 - Rank III Mage - 1500 Information:
