[hider=Vesper, Knight of the Leaf] [center][IMG]http://i63.tinypic.com/2uz2m1i.jpg[/IMG][/center] [b]Name:[/b] Vesper Iarrora [b]Age:[/b] 27 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Race:[/b] Hylian [b]Personality:[/b] Vesper displays an icy disposition to others, rarely speaking or making a sound, which lends itself advantageously to the life of a ranger. He cares little for others or how they might feel about him - in fact, the only thing that seems to motivate him is the mission of the Knights of the Leaf, and in that he acts with ruthless efficiency. When off-duty, Vesper drinks heavily, and this is one of the only times he can be roused to speak. When he does speak freely, he is cynical, mocking, and cruel. Occasionally, when alone, Vesper is struck by grief, and weeps silently and desperately for his lost family. [b]Biography:[/b] Vesper grew up in a woodland town near Faron City, into a small family of hunters. Rather than continue his family's meager way of living, he enlisted early into the Knights of the Leaf, and training in archery from an early age bought him his entrance ticket. He quickly and easily adapted to the lifestyle of a ranger, learning the way of the sword from his fellow scouts and enjoying every moment in the Leaf corps. At the age of 26, Vesper became a father to a young boy, and used his earnings to purchase a home in Faron City for his family and waned somewhat from scouting. Almost a year later, after returning home from a field mission, Vesper found his home broken and his wife and son murdered. The killers did not leave a single track to follow. Devastated, Vesper abandoned his home and returned to the front lines of the Leaf where he found solace in the solitude of the wilds. Upon hearing of the attacks and murders in Hyrule, Vesper quickly volunteered to take part in the investigation, hoping to find some clue to his own tragedy, some direction in his path of vengeance.

That has nothing to do with the trait though, Hylians are more attuned with magic and and are more skill-based warriors. They get one extra spell or technique. [b][Trait] [The Leaf] Camouflage [/b]- The Knights of the Leaf are often called the Chameleon Knights. This is a basic passive magic that blends their armor to their environment, though it takes time to cast meaning it cannot be used for combat, but it allows these knights to sneak and scout at will.

[b][Tech] Sword Breaker (15)[/b] - Strikes the opponent's weapon to disarm them. [b][Tech] Wolf Stance[/b] - Advanced footwork that focuses on speed over power. The user strikes twice instead of once with every swing, at slightly reduced strength. [b][Tech] Hawk Stance[/b] - A bizarre stance focused on using the opponent or environment as a springboard. Not very effective against humanoid enemies, but increases damage against large monsters. [b][Trait] Hardy[/b] - Is not affected by adverse weather or harsh climates.
