[b]Alignment:[/b] Lawful Good [b]Personality:[/b] A great hero known for his many charities and nobility in life, this is his persona before the exhibition tournament arranged by the Royal Tutor to showcase the Prince’s martial skills. In those times, he was a virtuous but arrogant hero, charitable but rash, for he yet had to learn from experience the foolishness of such. He is someone who discerns others true nature, and reveal it, causing many to dislike him as there many things that shouldn’t be put into words, yet he still does and in a rather blunt manner. This due to the fact that he accepts those and everything as normal and truth, and as such there is nothing to be ashamed of. [hider=Appearance:] [img]https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/typemoon/images/8/8d/Lancer_of_red.png[/img] [/hider] [b]Bio:[/b] Karna is the son of the Sun God Surya and the human Princess Kunti, who was given a special boon with the ability to invoke any deity to give her a child. As Kunti was unwed and thus wary of the repercussions of such child would have on her reputation, she asked for the Sun God to give to the child a proof that he was his son, which give to Karna, the invulnerable Golden Armor and Earrings. She would then abandon her son into the river, who would be picked up and raised by charioteers. Kunti also would later on invoke others deities and give birth to the Pandava brothers, one of the two Royal families that caused the great war. Karna was a brilliant and virtuous child, raised by those who picked him up as if he was their own son. He, even from an early age was highly perceptive and due to his surroundings, grew to be more discerning of others true nature. Despite that, he himself grew as someone who truly accepts all things as if they were just a part of normal. In his adolescence, he grew interessed in the arts of warfare and thus seeked every possible teacher that he could find, but he was always denied due to his caste, as they would only teach the Kshatriya, with the exception of Parashuma, who due to his grudge wouldn’t teach the military caste. However, one day, as his teacher fell asleep on Karna lap, a bee stunged Karna thigh, who endured the pain as not to awaken his teacher, but as he eventually woke up, he was enraged, for only those of the Kshatriya caste could resist the pain. And thus he cursed Karna, that he would lose knowledge of the most powerful Astra, the brahmastra, the moment he needed the most. Though as his anger dimished with time, he regretted giving him such a curse, and thus gave his personal bow, Vijaya, to Karna. As he grew more accomplished, he would participated in a tournament arranged by the Royal Teacher, to display the martial arts of the five Pandavas Brothers, who had great skills, with Arjuna being the most renowned, specially at the bow. They would however ridicule Karna for his unknown origins, despite him displaying skill at their level if not exceeding, seeing this, Duryodhana, a rival Prince went in and gave to Karna a kingdom and his friendship, which both would remain as the greatest of friends till their life ended. As the enemity between the two royal families and that of the Karna and the Pandavas Brothers grew, war was all but inevitable. Indra, seeking victory for his son Arjuna, but knowing that he could not win while Karna possessed the golden armor and earrings, disguised himself as a Brahmin, priest caste, and asked for the armor and earrings as alms while Karna worshipped the Sun at the midday, for he swore that he would not turn away any who asked him for alms while he was at his worship. Despite him knowing the true identity of the priest, as he has been warned by the Sun God on the day before and knowing that by giving away his armor and earrings, he was also in fact handing victory and his life, in the end, he still gave them away. And it was such an act, that Indra honor would be tainted if he did not give a gift of equal value, and thus his strongest weapon was handed to Karna. Before the war started, his mother, Kunti went to meet him and try to convince him to join the Pandavas side, as she revealed the truth of his birth. He had no hatred for her, and so Karna, promised that he would only kill Arjuna and spare the others brothers, as he would never betray his friend, who was the only one who was willing to do so and yet wouldn’t allow her to go returning with nothing. And the war was waged, with each side numbering millions and having countless heroes, it was a mythological war, in the seventeen day, Karna battled against Arjuna and due to the several plots and curses that acted against him, he lost the battle and his life, while he was trying to [b]Weapon:[/b] His personal bow, Vijaya [hr] [b]Parameters:[/b] [i]Strength:[/i] B [i]Endurance:[/i] C [i]Agility:[/i] A [i]Mana:[/i] B [i]Luck:[/i] D [hr] [b]Class Skills:[/b] •[b]Magic Resistance:[/b]C Cancel spells with a chant below two verses.
