[b]Character Sheet:[/b] [b]Name[/b]: Harald Zalheidasson [b]Sex[/b]: Male [b]Race:[/b] Zalheider [b]Age:[/b] 12 (was created as a fully-grown adult) [b]Appearance:[/b] [img]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BvKdPr8CUAEecJj.jpg[/img] [b]Religion:[/b] Zalheiderism. Harald and his fellow Zalheiders believe that the Dark Lord Zalheidas is a living god born of a mortal woman and a djinn. The history concerning the creation of the Zalheider race has been retold as holy truth. [b]Backstory:[/b] Harald is one of the first-generation Zalheiders to be successfully made - we don't talk about the failures beforehand. The first Zalheiders were created when Zalheidas took the souls of Djinni, split them and altered them to suit his will before placing them in new bodies fashioned from the flesh of other races. While Zalheidas did not succeed in combining the ferocity and strength of Vaskr, the fearlessness of elves, the magic of Djinni, the cunning of Arachnae, and the adaptiveness of humans into one race, the Zalheiders made excellent soldiers. After going through training, he joined the army of Zal Drudakk and soon showed himself to be a paragon of the ferocity and discipline that the Zalheider race would soon come to be known for. Despite finding himself in a variety of units that were often thrown into the bloodiest parts of battles, Harald not only survived but showed himself to be practically fearless. After one battle where he took charge after his commanding officers had been killed, he came to the attention of his superiors. Rather than advance him as an officer, his superiors thought that his talents were better suited for other work. He was transferred to the Storm Hussars, a force of shock cavalry often used to break the will of wavering enemy forces. It was in this role that he caught the attention of the Dark Lord Zalheidas himself and was permitted to take the surname of Zalheidasson. When the prophecy first surfaced and Zalheidas saw the need for a force of killers to carry out his will, Harald was one of the first to be chosen. After he had slaughtered a number of plucky youths - along with more imposing adversaries, a champion arose whom all thought to be the Chosen One. Now, Harald and his comrades are ready to hunt down every last hero and eviscerate them. [b]Motivation:[/b] His undying loyalties to the Dark Lord leave no need for any other reason for motivation. Even so, the promise of wealth, respect, fame and power is a nice icing on the cake. [b]Magic:[/b] Slight magical resistance due to his soul's origin. [b]Skills/Strengths:[/b] Brutal and effective leadership, Fearlessness, expert of the forced march, horsemanship, skill at arms and some survivalism. [b]Weaknesses:[/b] As a Zalheider, he has a distinct appearance and it is quite hard to blend into more mundane settings, quite stubborn once given orders, struggles with the concept of "retreat", and has no job skills other than hunting and killing. [b]Gear:[/b] Heavy cloak, reinforced cavalry sabre, rack of pistols across his chest(2), leather jackboots, backpack, waterskin(2), army rations, gambeson undershirt, bullwhip. [b]Other:[/b] Not at the moment.
