His face is unusually tanned for someone in Anarcas, with some people believing he originated from Estala or even Ibion. However, it reveals every minor wrinkle, crust, and scars that accumulates, while also sporting dark hazelnut eyes and longish light brown hair. Some say that constant exposure to such whether makes some age more rapidly, with Konstantine looking several years older than he actually is. His muscular body, riddled in scars from previous battles, is usually encapsulated in a carapace of dark-blue iron armor, lined with gold highlights, being only taken off when in baths and in other rare circumstances. He stands at 5’10” (1.78 Meters) and weighs in at 146 lbs (66.2 Kg) without his bulky armor.

A stern, yet inspiring, lieutenant, he always makes sure that his troops and comrades are in tip-top shape, well-trained, and that they are all ready for battle at a moment’s notice. He barely ever smiles, usually seem issuing a frown that ranges from mildly-calm to that of utter disappointment, which all depends on the situation at hand. Despite his rather imposing persona, Konstantine is also known to be extremely kind and generous to his men, treating them all as if they were his brothers and sisters. This is especially true to the more emotional portion that he undersees, soldier who are new and have not yet seen raw combat outside the safety of their walls. Instead of punishing them, Konstantine sympathizes with their pain and through encouraging words and phrases he often pushes them to become braver and more willing to fight. This is why it so pains him to see when his men fall in battle, but he always carries on, even in the darkest of times.[/indent] [b][color=0072bc][u]Biography:[/u][/color][/b] [indent]Matthias Constantine was born to a small middle-class family in the Anarcas capital, Blackwater. His father, Vellard, was a simple fishmonger, while his mother, Freya, was a priest for the Anarcan Central Army. Freya was relatively well-known for her commitment on the battlefield as well as her generosity towards her wounded patients she cared for. Most of the generals she worked under applauded her efforts in healing almost every patient under her care, with a mortality rate of only 4%. Meanwhile, Vellard was able to avoid getting enrolled due to a minor limp he had sustained from an infection several years prior. Wanting take after his mother, Matthias wanted to become a respected unit on the battlefield just like her, however he didn't feel like he could be a good cleric. His superiors suggested that he'd become an armored unit, as his physical strength was eligible for the task. Accepting the offer, Matthias began training at the age of 12. Three years later, he would be put to the ultimate test. After the Siege of Fort Rigane, the Anarcan-Cesadan Army had been suffering losses left and right against the Estalan army. They were now on the loosing end of the war. As more troops attempted to aid the nearby towns and fortresses that were under attack, the walls of Blackwater became more desolate and empty. So when Erigan IV's forces set their sights on the capital of Anarcas, few were prepared for the landslide of slaughter that was to commence. Forced into the battle alongside his mother, the Konstantines did all they could to aid their companions and push the opposing forces back. Matthias even briefly clashed with Erigan IV's himself for a brief minute before being gravely injured and forced to fall back. Freya was able to heal her son's wound considerably before she was shot down by an enemy sniper straight into her back and penetrating her spine. Fatally injured, Freya told her son to run and to continue carrying her mother's legacy as a protector of the innocent before ultimately dying to her wounds. Matthias didn't run immediately, instead hiding in the shadows as he watched Theodorus Floran, Regent of Anarcas, battle and strike down the enemy king. It was a bittersweet moment, only to be crushed into dust as the army suddenly developed a newfound strength to earn them the final blow that ended the War of the New Leaf. Meanwhile, Vellard Konstantine seemed to have vanished without a trace for reasons unknown. Konstantine was somehow able to escape being captured by the enemy as he left the blood-soaked capital and traveled to Floransvale to the southeast. While the Estalan victory left a vile distaste in his mouth, Matthias surprisingly didn't shed much vengeance for the opposing army. Yes they did killed his mother, that he'll definitely never forgive them for and will always grieve for, but this was only war. And he understood, thanks to his superiors, that war is cruel and heartless to everyone, regardless of their position. Yet his mother's death would only make him stronger and more willing to ensure that his fellow comrades will survive the following battles and ensure that they'll come back to see their loved ones unharmed. This is something he'd embrace once he achieved the status of lieutenant at the age of 30. With the lack of battle, Matthias' rank stagnated as he attempts to live a more peaceful lifestyle, while still honoring his rank and position in the army, in times of peace. While he still heavily dislikes Estala for what they've done, his views have softened still, only viewing them as simply a powerful faction within the realm. Whether or not Anarcas would return to its former glory is of no concern to him, however with the rumors that a child of the Floran family had somehow survived the war, he couldn't help but to be curious at what the future holds next. And now with the Pirate War becoming more and more of a threat towards Anarcas, as it slowly makes it's way up towards the Archipelago, Lieutenant Konstantine will have to prepare to engage the scum and villainy that sails ever so closer with each passing day.[/indent] [b][color=0072bc][u]Inventory:[/u][/color][/b] [indent][list] [*][b]Silver Lance:[/b] (See Picture) [*][b]Silver Shield:[/b] (See Picture) [*][b]Vulnerary:[/b] A healing potion that restores 10% - 15% of user's health.
