[b]Name:[/b] Lian "Drifter" Cook [b]Color:[/b] Red [b]Age:[/b] 25 [b]Personality:[/b] His free spirited nature and care free attitude is the first thing you notice when you meet Lian. He is very loyal to his true friends and would do anything for them. He doesn't think twice before striking out at his enemy's if pushed far enough. He tries to put off a very calm zen like attitude but knows that deep down if pushed to far his anger is hard to suppress. He trained for years to hone his sword skills and master the way of the samurai sword. Lian is a perfectionist and sometimes that gets the best of him. He always strives to be the best at what he dose and is never satisfied. Lian has a somewhat addictive personality having had problems with drugs in his younger years. Sword mastery has helped him get past all of that.
