[b]Name:[/b] Viggo Malmsteen
[b]Race:[/b] Human
[b]Gender:[/b] Male
[b]Age:[/b] 29
[b]Occupation:[/b] Bard
[b]Personality/Interests:[/b] Viggo is an egotistical, nihilistic, and self-destructive person who lives only for self enjoyment. Reveling in the pleasures of life he has little care for trivialities like "responsibility" or "consequences". However, despite his faults, Viggo is utterly dedicated to his music career, and has no lack of discipline when it comes to practising his guitar or vocal talents. 

[b]Appearance:[/b] [url=http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/305/2/1/skwisgaar_skwigelf_by_okha-d4eqqdu.png]Viggo[/url] is a tall and lithe person, with hints of muscularity in his arms and chest. 
[b]Body build:[/b] As mentioned above, he is thin, but now scrawny, and tall for a human, standing at around 6'2.   
[b]Hair:[/b] Viggo's pale golden hair flows down past his chest, and is light enough to majestically billow in a soft breeze.  
[b]Skin color:[/b] This bard is unremarkably pale, little else to say here.  
[b]Eye/Iris color:[/b] Viggo often wears dark paint around the sockets of his eyes, but his irises are a deep blue.   
[b]Height/Weight:[/b] 6'2 / 155lbs  
[b]Notable Features:[/b] Viggo often wears a cologne concocted from sweet smelling herbs and flowers, giving him an aroma that masks the smell of booze that perpetually floats around him. 
 
[b]Clothing Description:[/b] Viggo wears a black sleeveless top when indoors, and adopts a larger longsleeved cloak of a similar colour when outside. His breeches are slightly greyer, but generally match stylistically with the rest of his outfit. 
[b]Equipment:[/b] Viggo's prized possession is his guitar, as it so no ordinary device. Unlike most string instruments, Viggo's guitar is modified with socketed black crystals and panels of metal that run along the body and up into the neck. When the strings are thrashed, the instrument rings out a much harsher but powerful noise (ie. the noise of an electric guitar). However, the guitar's strings can still be plucked softly to mimic the sound of a lute or traditional (acoustic) guitar. The inner workings of the instrument are known to Viggo alone. 
[b]Weapon(s):[/b] Viggo, by habit, carries a small dagger with him. 

[b]Powers[/b] While Viggo's skill at guitar does stem from years of practise, he rightfully sees himself as a natural, and has been proficient with musical instruments from a young age. 
[b]Abilities:[/b] Viggo is human, and therefore possesses few abnormal traits.
[b]Talents:[/b] Viggo is a masterful guitarist, and according to himself, the best in the world. He is also an incredible drinker, and known to rival dwarves in the amount of alcohol he can pump into his body before needing the help of a healer. 
[b]Magic:[/b] While Viggo is not a mage or wizard by any standards, his knowledge of the arcane has allowed him to blend magic into his music, as such, Viggo's playing tends to have bizarre effects on people. Depending on the tempo, melody, and theme of the song, Viggo can slowly turn a group of people against one another, or make a situation calmer by lulling everyone into a state of peace and tranquility. Certain riffs can also summon dread or pain in individuals, though the effects of the spell are quickly broken if Viggo stops playing.
