[center][b]Personality[/b][/center]
[center]Anastasius is a quiet and reserved individual not prone to outbursts of any kind, even in the energies 
of the battlefield. In fact it would be rare to hear him speak in anything above a calm voice. He isn't without passion but he has been humbled, replacing rashness with wisdom. Should he find something that harms the common people he will be swift to their aid, bringing retribution upon those who would take advantage of them.[/center]

[center][b]Physical description[/b][/center]
[center]Leprosy has destroyed his once handsome body. His once pristine skin has fallen to the disease, causing large patches of flaking skin around his body and bumps to ruin his face. However the disease hadn't touched his strength before Athena banished the disease from his body. Standing at 6'3 and 240 pounds, Anastasius still has his imposing stature and the strength of an ox.

Anastasius rarely leaves the confines of his armor. The armor itself is nothing special, standard issue for hoplites except for obvious wear and tear along with some corrosion on the edges. The helmet is special, stylized to cover everything besides the eyes and the horsetail upon the crest is brittle, sickly, and uneven. Beyond that a large pale cloak covers his body and armor.[/center]

[center][b]Daily Life/Job[/b][/center]
[center]Anastasius spends his days looking for a worthy cause to pledge himself to. Otherwise he travels, finding people in need of a helping helping. This help comes in many ways but usually ends with him killing bandits.[/center]

[center][b]Reason For Joining Demi-Life[/b][/center]
[center]Anastasius was a man of standing once, made a living as a career soldier of Athens. However that changed when the revolt happened. A leper colony had begun to take destiny by the throat, attacking caravans and anyone who tried to stop them. In desperation a fledgling city state implored Athens to send help to deal with the revolt as they lacked the man power to deal with the it. In response it got the aid it wanted, a small detachment of hoplites.

Expecting a quick victory the hoplites went into battle cocky and over confident, leading to heavy losses when the battle began. The disease gave the rebels unimaginable determination, they would be fatally wounded but wouldn't even phase them. Only guaranteed death blows would kill them quickly and by the end of the battle the rebels were routed, destroyed to the lost man but at a great cost. those few men who didn't die soon found out that they too were now infected with the disease, shunned by the very people they saved. Athens wasn't any better.

Lost, demoralized, and very ill he traveled to the Temple of Athena in search of questions before he was banished. Anastasius pleaded with everything he had, asked every question, and cried every tear he had in an attempt to appeal to his Patron, to find an answer as to why his fate would be to die sick and alone. He never got an answer, instead he got a silence. Bitter and angry he left the temple, left Athens, and went wherever the road took him. It wasn't until several months had passed that an answer came to him. The disease had stopped spreading, the damage it had done would stay but it wouldn't kill him. He would live, disfigured but alive. Faith restored, Anastasius became reborn and renewed his quest for something greater than himself. He would do what Athens would not, he would help those who could not help themselves and protect those who evil would harm.[/central]

[center][b]Desired Weapon/Skill from Patron[/b][/center]
The ability to bring retribution to those black of heart who would harm the innocent and the helpless.

[center][b]2 Flaws[/b][/center]
[center][i]~Feel No Pain~[/i] 
Anastasius' leprosy has eliminated his ability to feel pain and while the benefits are there he is far more likely to push his body too far, doing more harm than good.

[i]~Retribution~[/i]
Quick to bring death to those who harm the innocent, even when faced with adverse odds.[/center]

[center][b]2 Virtues/Morals[/b][/center]
[center][i]~Empathic~[/i]
Anastasius knows what its like to feel pain, loss, and betrayal. He may not speak of it but he will show it, some extra food here and a pouch of gold there. It's the little things that bring comfort.

[i]~Friend of the Destitute~[/i]
Always turns a blind eye to those who steal for survival, however should he catch wind of more darker things happening than he will not hesitate to stop them.[/i]
