[u][b]Name:[/b][/u] Jaime Cartarsy [u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 25 [u][b]Race:[/b][/u] Human [b][u]Appearance:[/u][/b] Short, red hair, sea blue eyes and a pale complexion, Jaime has the cast of a dreamer. Despite spending days under the scalding sun, he never seems to burn. If you looked closer, you would see the faint outlines of two runes etched into his skin, just beneath the nape of his neck. The first channels magic, the second provides a degree of fire protection. He is of middling height, around 5ft 11inch, maybe six on a good day. Despite resembling a learned man, his body has been honed by years of fighting beasts, first in his native Tour de Rouge, and then in the Nether Gate. He also happens to be quite handsome, which even the girls he has left behind will bitterly attest to. [u][b]Attire:[/b][/u] Typically, when not fighting monsters, Jaime wears a white linin shirt under a jacket of monster hide died red. When he is fighting monsters, he wears only padded leather armour, with a few metal plates behind over more vital areas. They are, however, empowered by runes of his own design so that, when hit, he armour is harder than plate. Like all heroes, he neglects a helmet, stating it would ruin his hair. In reality, it blocks the flow of magic to the rune on his neck, which would significantly hamper his runic enchantments. [b][u]Bio:[/u][/b] [hider=Bio] Growing up, Jaimie fully embraced the hunter ethos, throwing himself into each fight with an almost suicidal vigour. It was his mother who gave him his runes, she herself being a skilled rune smith, and she instilled his curiosity and his desire to learn more. As he began to craft his weapon, she aided him with knowledge of the correct symbols to inscribe and the correct way to pull the magic through the blades, though of course, he did the work himself. The weapon that he crafted was one that he had always wanted even as a boy, when he fought with nothing but a long stick. His father called it a double-glaive, a thick metal haft with sword blades at either end, (You, like those things some elves use on LotR) Jaimie's also split in half to form two short sword. Despite it's tremendous weight, he has fought with it long enough to know how to use it properly. He first kill was a huge golem which had been driven crazy by a wild magical force, it was ten feet high and crafted of stone. The fight went on for hours, and it is said that they fought for so long that the runes on his blade grew hot enough to slice through the golems stone body, and this was how it was defeated. This much is true. At the bidding of his mother, whom desired that he also should learn how to craft runes, lest there be none locally when she died, he set off for Nether Gate in order to improve his craft, aged only fifteen. Upon arriving there, he apprenticed with a demon hunter named Marik, who was well known for often going out alone to hunt demons, and returning with more heads than many parties could hope for. It took much cajoling, fighting, and a life debt before he agreed to take him on, but he soon found that the boy was an apt learner, and soon they were discussing runes as practically equals, as opposed to student and teacher. Jaime made quite a name for himself as an accomplice to the legend Marik, establishing one of his own. Completing his 'apprenticeship', Jaimie bid farewell to Marik, vowing that they would meet again soon. Journeying back to his native village, as he promised his mother, he returned to the life he'd led before, hunting, fighting, working, he even began work on an runic chainmail suit, every link being individually inscribed with the desired runes, but he still hasn't finished it. It just wasn't the same, back home. He missed the thrill, the adventure of Nethergate. So he left. Now he's in Tour de Rouge, looking for someone to share in his adventure. [/hider] [b][u]Personality and Aspirations:[/u][/b] Jaimie's a thrill seeking, risk taking son of a bitch, and can barely sit still unless he's doing [i]something[/i] (weak ADHD), but his speech is quite smooth and practiced, which comes with being an shameless [s]f***boy[/s] ladies man. He is a constant seeker of adventure. [u][b]Inventory:[/b][/u] [hider=Bright Flame] Jaimie's aptly named bright flame glows with the power of the runes used upon it, which allow it to slice through even the hardest of mundane metals as if they were butter. As the fight goes on, the runes become more powerful as they begin to heat up with the current of magic passing through, and more than a few times, flame has manifested itself on the blades. It can be wielded as a double glaive, or split into two short swords. [/hider] [hider=Flame Scale Armour] Jaimie's leathers, as well as having a strength akin to plate, are completely flame retardant, and ehance the strength of the rune on his skin to the point the he could stand in a bonfire and barely feel a prickle. [/hider] Basic survival supplies Coin purse (respectable amount of money) Backpack Equipment to complete minor runes [u][b] Skills[/b][/u] [u]Runesmith:[/u] Jaimie has the knowledge required to create powerful runes, although he is not a master. He specialises in creating flame enchantments and developing runes of his own design, but is more than capable of creating almost any kind of other rune you could imagine. And some which you couldn't. [u]Beast Hunter:[/u] Jaimie has fought many beasts and demons in his time, and he knows how to handle himself and adapt his strategies. [u]Agile fighter:[/u] Despite it's cumbersome weight, Jaimie has found a way to use his weapon that involves as many doges as parries, and can keep it up for quite some time. [u]Languages[/u] Jaimie speaks fluent Abbalic and Neath-scratch. [b][u]Current Location:[/u][/b] Tour de Rouge
