Alright, here is my character for the RPG: [hider=Alkeides][b]Name:[/b] Alkeides [b]Patron:[/b] Cratus [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Age:[/b] 42 years old [b]Appearance:[/b] Portrayed by Dwayne Johnson, Alkeides is a tall, muscled man and considered handsome by many. Alkeides is tanned deeply and has dark semi-long hair and has some decent facial hair as well. He has a rather large nose, a rounded chin and rather large lips, but with chiseled features. Alkeides has large brown eyes and thin eyebrows. He stands 6'4" tall and weighs a hefty 260lbs of pure muscle and bulk. Alkeides typically wears cheaper clothing of various hides and leather, but at times he'll put on a metal chest plate. Finding one however to fit his chest width can be problematic at times. [b]Personality:[/b] As a soldier Alkeides was strict and stern. He had an ill temper and was easily angered. He didn't not like to be ordered around by anyone of lower rank and hated to be ignored. He wasn't afraid to get into fist fights with fellow soldiers to get his point across. Though with all these negative qualities he was ultimately honest, loyal, and dependable, and truth worthy. Nowadays however Alkeides could be considered a loner, a hermit who prefers to be alone, away from any sort of or conflict. More of his good qualities are present as well nowadays compared to when he was younger now that he has the peace of mind that he so rightfully needed. [b]Daily Life:[/b] Currently Alkeides is, but a simple farmer and looks after a small group of various domesticated animals. Mostly sheep, but he also has goats, pigs, horses, and cows as well. He is a fine hunter, gatherer and fisher, and when time permits he enjoys going out into the wild for nature walks. [b]Biography:[/b] Raised within the Greek state of Thebes, Alkeides was brought to Sparta at the age of six to become a soldier, but only began his Spartan training at age fourteen. He had suffered much trauma and challenge. Many of his friends were badly injured or worse due to the violent training that Spartan soldiers were put to, but Alkeides pushed through and eventually at the age of nineteen, Alkeides was ready for war. He would stay in active duty until the age of thirty, until deciding to settle down, but he was still considered on reserve if need be. From here Alkeides became a mercenary and travelled with other like minded folk. He would do this for nearly ten years before calling his travelling days over. He left to the quiet countryside, building his own home and worked the land so that it was safe for animals to be present. Throughout his life he had worshipped the god of power and strength, Cratus ever since an incident occurred when he was under going his Spartan training. While sparring with another kid he experienced a strength feat that shocked everyone. Some said it was simply a combination of different factors, but Alkeides knew that something else was at play. All throughout his life he had thought that some outside help was guiding him, but had no direct evidence to prove such a statement. Until now... [b]Desired Weapon/Skill:[/b] Strength and power. [b]Flaws:[/b] Has an ill temper, and is quite hardheaded and stubborn. [b]Morals:[/b] One must earn respect to receive it, and he is very loyal and honest.[/hider]
