Most prominent feature are the crimson eyes, and sharp ears that land in a point at their edge marking the elven lineage. Therion clothing consists prominently of hoods and shawls that have been enchanted for the purposes of boosting stealth and crit bonuses... And over all fashion. Of course, there isn't an element of his character that isn't fit or suited for anything else. He started a thief and, quite literally, has ended in one. So all aspects must resemble his class. Perhaps that is what it means to him to be in this world. Features are rather soft, perhaps due to being an elf, which makes him seem younger than what his age would suggest. [color=f7941d][b]Backstory:[/b][/color] Therion, once known as Gendou, was about as laid back as you can expect from someone who could afford it. Most of his free time he spent it playing video games with friends and catching up on shows and comics he forgotten about. He graduated collage and has been in a rut ever since, unable to find employment nearby and opting to neglect ever doing so. Passion's in life were limited to simply [i]"living everyday in peace."[/i] Not being bothered by the customary troubles of each day, paying bills, eating good food, going to the gym twice of thrice a week and laying back and escaping reality to play games. So to some extent, if you were to seriously think about a word that could depict his reality in its entirety... You could go right by saying that Gendou was complacent. His passion's were all centered on the fictional, on building worlds and stories that would ultimately land him a few moments of comfort. Fish out of water, you might say. He lived life so absently that maybe this too was a form of escapism. Always doing the minimum to survive and extend himself so that he could derive purpose on the fictional. That's not to say he was completely useless at everything. He merely didn't expect much from life, success was he made it, and he didn't have many awards to prove nor did he care much for it. So, perhaps something sparked withing him when he finally decided to buy Emerald Odyssey. He was reluctant, at first. MMO's weren't his forte and he didn't have many friends that could really join him to play. But the massiveness of the worlds and trailers were something of a calling card for someone who enjoys planes and lore. But, you know. Still undecided, when picking up the game someone began to chat him up, talk him out and soon a friendship formed. This person too, wanted to play this game and had been anticipating it for awhile. They exchanged numbers and not before long he bought Emerald Odyssey through the weaving of fate allowing him a friend to join him up. What Gendou didn't expect, was to be trapped and locked with a world he had no knowledge of. Foreign and magical, yet crawling with myriads of danger. But... a grin broke, and a sense of excitement brew upon him. Truly, he was home. [color=f7941d][b]Personality:[/b][/color] Perhaps confidence brews from the trickle of his brow and the curvature of the lip. Maybe he simply plays a caricature of what he think tricksters are, but truly he is neither. Therion is a thief and therefore he not quite the most moral of all people. However, he certainly leans for the better good rather than just doing things for the sake of evil. Therion is a playful sort, and a bit of a joker. Not a good one to say the least, but he tries. He has a soft spot for the innocent, and a big heart for animals which is why he has opted countless of times to choose the tamer class at the start but decided against it. Still, this doesn't stop him from occasionally attempting to steal or even bribe his away of someone's merchandiser. After extending his theif class to the next tree, he has found it simpler to do what he desires with the class he has chosen. However you may see it, though. Therion is a human being. A living person who was met with what some might see it as an unfortunate circumstance. He is in a home, away from home. So to him, the world around him might at first seemed like a playground, but now it's reality. So he reacts to situations like any normal person would, Therion is brave in the face of danger when his foot shivers from the sight of death. He cries when times of sadness and closeness strike upon him, perhaps he has created a bit of an attachment to everything around him. He gets angry and shouts at misconduct of extreme proportions, and similarly begets happiness from the small things in life. Or perhaps, in this virtual life. His pet is a small bird that he can channel his sights on, he lost his previous one, which is why he keeps a feather dangling from his pouch to remember him by. [/indent] [hr] [center][h1][b][color=f7941d]Arcane Trickster[/color][/b][/h1] Therion has adapted his original class into a variant sub-class of both mage and thief. Arcane tricksters in particular are proficient with daggers, cross-bows and staffs, but Therion opts to move throughout the shadows, utilizing the school of illusions to his advantage. This class if not extremely potent when it comes to developing high level spells like it a would a pure mage, however it combines both aspect to make a devastating class to be dealt with. [/center] [indent][b][color=f7941d]Abilities:[/color][/b] Far-sight: Therion has the ability to see far distances due to his thief proficiency. He has adapted his character well enough to fight out of sight to proc crit bonuses. Dark-vision: He can see fairly well during night time. It is not by any means clear, he can see farther than your normal human and on top what would be unseen by he humans in the dark, he sees more so like a moving shadow. True Invisibility: His most prominent skill yet. He can not only turn invisible, but also disguise his entire presence around him. Leaving no trace of his existence behind. However, it is not like blink or a shift between planes. This ability can be countered by a spell or removed with a debuff. Elemental Bomber: It comes with the class. He can create spheres of flames which can be lunged towards the target and it explodes on impact. It can AoE any creature withing 5 foot of the blast zone. Sensory Exchange: He can transfer his conscious to his pet bird. He will see and hear all that the bird does, however his body is in a state of concentration which means all active spells will drop, and he will be exposed to attacks. [color=f7941d][b]Skills:[/b][/color] Sleight of hand: He has fast hands. He can steal and hide things with daring proficiency. Keen of Mind: He has to always be vigilant as he is a glass cannon. He is extraordinarily good at tactical positioning and movement. Run-away: This is a perk for his speed. He is agile and quick on his feet, dexterous like a thief and sharp like a mage. [color=f7941d][b]Other:[/b][/color] The feather of his past bird is actually an equipment It's pretty bad, but he keeps it close. It gives him 5% more luck. [/indent][/hider]
