A quick note: Damn it Greggory why/how can you forget to include so much in the sheet!?! Anyways, You may see that his name is both Julianus Scipio and Brutii, that's because when he ran away he started going by a different name to keep people off his trail. Brutii is the given name, Scipio is the one he's going by. That's the biggest thing I failed to explain in the CS, but no doubt other issues exist so... anyways here you go.

I would not choose to be anywhere else."[/i][/b][/color][/center] [center][h3][i][color=ffb220]Profile[/color][/i][/h3][/center] [b]Full Name:[/b] Julianus Brutii [b]Titles/Nicknames:[/b] Juli, As of yet he bears no others, but Julianus looks forward to the names his fans will one day give him. [b]Age:[/b] 22 [b]Race:[/b] Venatrian [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Sexual Orientation:[/b] Heterosexual [b]Combat Role:[/b] Jack of all trades Duelist [b]Hair Color:[/b] Black [b]Eye Color:[/b] Sea Green [b]Height:[/b] 5'11" [b]Weight:[/b] 164 lbs (I have no idea how weight... weights. So if this weight is nonsense let me know eh?) [b]Appearance:[/b] A strong if somewhat lean man, Julianus moves with the sharp controlled movements of one with confidence. His skin is soft and unblemished with scars or dirt, Julianus bathing sometimes several times a day. As he also perfumes after bathing Julianus often smells of wildflowers, his favorite scent. His hair is kept long, flowing, and kept back in a knot so that it is out of his eyes in a fight. When out of battle Julianus dresses to please, wearing the robes of his homeland loosely so as to show his well kept form. [center][h3][i][color=ffb220]Personality[/color][/i][/h3][/center] [b]Overview:[/b] Confidence is Julianus' watchword. He is brimming with eager bravado, always aiming to please those around him. Julianus lives for the crowd, for the roar of his name, and the sharp warm feeling it gives him. However very quickly has the prospect of fame gone to the young warriors head and he has become a fair bit selfish and prideful. In conversation he is noted his quick wit and quicker tongue, a trait picked up during his early years. Julianus also voraciously seeks the simpler pleasures of life. Wine, women, and what have you. They are things which are still new to him, and he desires them for it.

[b]Strength:[/b] 5 [b]Dexterity:[/b] 5 [b]Intelligence:[/b] 7 [b]Cunning:[/b] 5 [b]Magic:[/b] 3 [b]Willpower:[/b] 6 [b]Endurance:[/b] 5 [b]Charisma:[/b] 9 [b]Weapons of Choice:[/b] Julianus is skilled in combat with a short spear. The weapon wielded by the gladiator that trained him Julinus uses the spear to harry opponents before delivering a conclusive blow with his second weapon, his shield. While Julianus often uses his shield as one normally would, a tool to block or parry blows, Juli also is keen to use the metal disc as a bludgeon, using it to direct his foes and beat enemies into submission. Julianus' teacher was also a master of throwing the razor edged shield to strike far off foes but this is a skill Julianus has yet to grasp himself. [b]Armor/Combat Apparel:[/b] Julianus uses the old gear of his teacher. This armor includes scale mail over one arm and across the waist, augmented with golden metal plates. Greaves protect the legs while a thin round cap protects the head and offers shade from the blinding sun. However the chest is kept bare, mostly to appease the crowds. [b]Fighting Style:[/b] Julianus is a jack of all trades. He excels in one on one duels, though he is capable in larger engagements. From range he has few options, though he can attempt to throw his shield though this would leave him with much reduced options afterwards. Juli understands the value of strategy, and knows that if larger bulkier allies are on the field that he would be better flanking and harrying. Should worse come to worse though Julianus can lean back on the magic he learned years ago, though his skill with such things is debatable, what with the lack of training in recent times. [b]Magical Affinity:[/b] Electric [i]Guardian's Bolt[/i] - Julianus weaves the threads of magic in front of him, and after enough concentration lets loose a bolt of lightning from his outstretched arm. The bolt of energy strikes hard, and is quite the visual sight for the crowd. [center][h3][i][color=ffb220]Background[/color][/i][/h3][/center] [b]Place of Birth:[/b] The Imperial city of Tarracina [b]Social Status:[/b] Runaway noble [b]History:[/b] Julianus was born the first child of an important senator and a mage priestess. The union between Julianus Vatinius and Virgo Brutii was more a bonding of utility than romance. It is well known that the child of a powerful mage would have innate magical power, and Vatinius sought the respect that marriage to a member of the clergy would bring. From an early age Julianus was schooled in the ways of magic, faith and statecraft by his parents and various tutors. At first Juli took to the studies well, a natural who easily picked up on complex notions. However before too long Juli grew tired of the studies, and was lonely. He had few friends, and both his parents were distant with their duties. Then however his sister was born into the world. While not as quick witted as Julianus she was far more invested in her studies. When Julianus was a young teen his father treated him to a trip to the local arena to watch the day's games. The young man was enraptured by the spectacle, the roar of the crowd, the skill of the warriors. When the pair returned home Julianus begged his father to let him learn how to fight, to become a gladiator. However his father wouldn't allow it, the boy was to become a powerful mage and senator, the life of a warrior was not in the cards. However Julianus would not have this. The young man crept into the family vault, 'borrowing' a not insignificant amount of money and, after writing his sister a letter to explain why he was leaving, fled. It was a hard journey, but with his wits and meager magics Julianus managed to reach the coast of Venatria. After parting with most of his money Julianus managed to convince an aged retired gladiator to train him. The next several years were grueling. Julianus was put on a gladiators diet, trained daily in swordplay and tactics. After many hard years the old gladiator decided that there was nothing else he could teach the young man he gave Juli his old weapons and armor and let him loose. Julianus now seeks a school to join in order to properly partake in the games. It has been many long years since he had contact with his family, though he has heard second hand that his sister has become an initiate in the sisterhood of the guardian. Hearing that House Valens is looking to reform Julianus now looks to join them, sure that the once famous school would be the path to fame and glory. [/hider]
