[hider=Am I Demon?] [center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/NXitXJa.jpg[/img] Seth stands at 6 feet and 2 inches tall, with a somewhat athletic build. He is never seen without his black suit of full-body armor, adorned with gold and red here and there. He also wears a tattered and faded black and gold cape with a cowl. Also never far from Seth is his sword, which is mostly black with the outer parts of the blade being red and a golden eye-like adornment (which can also be seen on the armor's helmet) in the center part between the hilt and the blade. [b][u]Name:[/u][/b] Seth Malbourne [b][u]Title:[/u][/b] Seth the Cursed Swordsman [b][u]Gender:[/u][/b] Male [b][u]Age:[/u][/b] 25 [b][u]Personality:[/u][/b] Seth has a very strong sense of justice, always willing to help those in need and punish evildoers. Once he has set his mind to something, it's very, [i]very[/i] hard to get him to reconsider. However, this is a rather unfortunate quality to have, considering that Seth also isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer. He can distinguish good things from evil, yes, but not always smart from plain idiotic. It is this characteristic that left Seth in the state he is right now: A cursed swordsman, and one who still follows the path of justice with unshakeable determination. [b][u]Abilities:[/u][/b] As well as being decently skilled with a blade, Seth has gained control over a small assortment of unholy spells, thanks to his equally unholy equipment. With his dark magic, Seth can do such things as summon a temporary familiar, temporarily give his sword the ability to drain life force from enemies, and launch a ball of unholy fire. However, Seth has little to no training with his magic, so it is relatively weak and causes a lot of physical and mental exhaustion for him to use it repeatedly. However, the option is there, just in case a little swordfighting won't quite get the job done. [b][u]Skills:[/u][/b] Seth's repertoire isn't just brute force; if the need arises, he is fully capable of old-fashioned persuasion. However, he isn't incredibly bright, but he's definitely about as stubborn as any ox you'll ever come across. If a little bit of flattery or reason won't get the job done, his persistence is the next best thing. ...Aside from brute force, of course. [b][u]Gear:[/u][/b] Seth's weapon of "choice" is a cursed greatsword, a common creation of dark sorcerers to fool unsuspecting adventurers. It cannot be disposed of, but possesses remarkable strength, at the downside of it also being quite heavy. His armor is much of the same: A black, red and golden suit of full-body armor that acts as the swordsman's skin. It's made of very sturdy and rather heavy steel, yes, but once it has been equipped, any damage the suit itself takes is transmitted straight to the wearer. A bit of a paradox, but it at least offers better protection than ordinary clothing, or nothing at all. [b][u]Bio:[/u][/b] Seth is...well, was, an ordinary human. Like many others of his kind, Seth was your average adventurer, doing various oddjobs in every town he set foot in to make ends meet and hopefully make a name for himself. As time went by, he became fairly well-known, though by no means legendary, no, not at all. He was still your average, run of the mill adventurer. Just a bit more well-known. However, his lust for fame and fortune got the better of him one day, when he came across a traveling merchant while traversing a dark forest. Said merchant made a comment about his "weak equipment", which, in actuality, was a standard issue broadsword and steel platemail, and offered a "true warrior's sword and suit of armor". Of course, Seth made the trade, and the merchant soon ran off, leaving the swordsman and his new gear behind. Eager to try out his new equipment, Seth immediately put on the suit of armor, followed by the sword. As soon as he had done so, his breathing became heavy, his vision blurry, and his mind started racing. Unprepared for such feelings, he desperately tried to remove his armor; unfortunately, it had already bonded to his body, and the sword was tied to his very being as well, unable to be discarded without flying back to its owner's side. Seth had been fooled; what he had been given was a cursed blade and suit of armor, a common and cheap trick practiced by dark sorcerers the world over. Once the connection between body and equipment had been made, it could not be reversed. Seth was doomed to live the rest of his life trapped inside a suit of armor, wielding a demonic sword as his only weapon. However, Seth would not let such a fate deter him from his hopes and dreams. The now-cursed swordsman continued to travel across the land, using his new equipment and accompanying unholy magic for good rather than evil, dark sorcerers be damned. Although the townsfolk he would meet throughout his travels would express fear at seeing such demonic gear, a little bit of explaining (usually) did the trick to change their minds. All the traveling Seth had done had been entirely by himself, no accompaniment to be seen. However, a run-in with a certain elf merchant soon changed that...
