[@gowi] I finally finished up the errors. All it took was some pizza, motivation, and the enter button. I feel like I may have missed one of those though.

        [color=white][sub]V I S A G E[/sub][/color][hr][indent][color=gray]His visage in game changes little from his image in real life. The largest difference is that his brown hair in real life has become a deep black. Otherwise, as a result of his heavy physical regime in real life, he looks extraordinarily fit in game as well. He even has several scars running up and down his body from training that have also been made present in the game. There presence even in game is because he takes pride in the life he has lived up until this point. 

However his hair color changing represents his independence and strong will as well as his self control and discipline. Due to the change in his hair, he decided to take on the color as his personal style. Black shirt, black pants, and a black coat are his trade mark. Thanks to his choice of color and profession choice, he has often heard himself being called the “Black Smith” as a nickname.[/color][/indent]

        [color=white][sub]P E R S O N A L I T Y[/sub][/color][hr][indent][color=gray]He is independent and strong willed, relying on himself and his own strength for just about everything. However, it is not because he is introverted by nature. Rather, he is more of an extrovert and simply prefers to conquer by his own hand.
 
His dedication to becoming the greatest weapon smith was so strong that it even landed him decided that Draethir was the faction that could best support him. He is known for being one of the many pragmatic artisans within Draethir that value achievement above all else.

        [color=white][sub]B A C K G R O U N D[/sub][/color][hr][indent][color=gray]When he was younger he played many games, but what he found most fascinating about the games was creating the strongest weapon to dominate. When he was mature enough his parents signed him up for martial arts and he became to busy to touch a game again. For years he trained in many styles ranging from western to eastern arts and even studied various martial weapon disciplines. 

He finally found rest when he went to college to pursue a degree in World History. He still maintained his body everyday but he now had more time to relax since martial arts was no longer his focus. In order to use up his tremendous free time, he started getting back into gaming, reigniting the joy he once had. It didn't take him long to discover the realism that VRMMOs had to offer. 

Eventually he came upon Pariah. With the versatility that it offered he decided to become a blacksmith. His independent nature and personal strength and knowledge in martial arts allowed him to take up the sword and acquire his own materials. Having no preconceptions about his own strength, he knows he must rely on others to help him to acquire the best materials to further his blacksmithing abilities. After finally completing college, he now has an enormous amount of time on his hands before he has to get a job. Using this new found freedom, he is going to become a blacksmith renowned throughout Pariah forevermore.

[hider=Physical]
Hardened in Flame – As a blacksmith, he has spent long hours residing next to the heat of a forge. The flames have hardened his skin allowing him to more easily endure the heat. He has an increased resistance to all fire attribute effects, including magical fire. 

Enhanced Strength – Hours of physical labor in a forge have increased his strength, allowing him to use heavier hammers in smithing as well as increasing his general combat strength.

Riposte – Rather then blocking an attack full on, he has learned to adjust the flow of his opponents attack with his blade. After catching his opponent off his guard, he executes a swift counter attack in response.

Diminutive Presence – Fighting alone for any length of time is dangerous to any fighter. After spending an extensive amount of time fighting solo, he has developed a presence that seems to be ignored by many enemies. This decreases his chances of finding himself surrounded in a fight.

Flashing Arc – Drawing his blade in one clean and destructive motion, he is able to deal massive damage before his sword is even fully drawn and before the enemy even knows what hit him.

[hider=Mental]
Weapon Smithing – Be they swords, katanas, knifes, hammers, or axes, he can make it. As long as its useful in the maiming of others he can most definitely craft it

Magic Weapon Smith – Smithing ordinary metal has its limits. He has learned to go beyond simple weapon smithing and has begun to incorporate magic into his weapons. It is very difficult to do, requiring many had to acquire materials and a lot of time to prepare to make a successful magic weapon. Alternatively, he can temporarily enchant a normal blade to do elemental damage. However, the amount of magical energy it requires to perform puts him at a significant risk if the fight was to last even a few seconds longer. 

Field Mending – Weapons get damaged over time naturally. Being a blacksmith, he knows a few tricks to fix up those poorly maintained weapons, even in the middle of nowhere. Got a crack in your blade? He's on it. The wrappings on your hilt falling off? He'll fix that. Got a broken wrist from your negligible ability with a blade? Sorry, but he cant fix that. He's a blacksmith not a doctor, go find one and learn how to use your sorry weapon while your at it.

Ore Knowledge – Being a warrior blacksmith has its limits. Having to buy the ores he uses to craft with, he has developed a discerning eye for them. Their strengths, weaknesses, and he is even able to distinguish what ores are in a weapon. 

Katana Mastery – Skills with weapons are not hard to come by. If enough effort is put into a single weapon then mastery can surely be achieved. A katana has is peculiar as most think that it is the “strongest blade”. However, that is not the case. Where a katana does have impressive cutting strength, that is only when it is well forged and with quality materials. The blade itself, being an amalgam of varying strengths, finds itself breaking quite often. Sure, you can try to cut through that solid steal rebar, and it just might happen, but your blade will definitely not look the same afterward. Using the katana doesn’t require much skill on it's own, mastering the katana, on the other hand, requires the wielder to understand its innate properties and to work around it's weaknesses.

[hider=Weaknesses]
Flashing Arc only works when he has his blade sheathed, so it can only work once per fight, unless he continuously resheathes his weapon during combat.
He has no range capabilities what so ever, if he is caught in a ranged battle against multiple opponents then he is surely done for.
Crowd Control is similarly a huge weakness of his.
He is also not specialized in one area other than blacksmithing weapons. In combat he could barely be called a tank and barely be called a DPS.

        [color=white][sub]R O U G H   V I R T U A L   H I S T O R Y[/sub][/color][hr][indent][color=gray]He has spent most of his time developing his sword skills, collecting materials, and smithing all manner of weapons. His name is not well known throughout the game, but the symbol he trademarks his weapons with is well known itself. A falcon adorns all of his crafts and bears the legacy of his greatest works. Feeling that he has achieved the limits of what he can do on his own, he has been searching for people to fight more difficult monsters with.[/color][/indent][/hider]

Here is all that I changed:

I even included a bit about the katana trope, to justify that its not over powered.
