Hoyo~
These are my two characters for my RP, The Chainmaster's Shadow!
I like keeping things somewhat minimalistic so there's enough for you to discover should you hop into the RP with me. But even so, I hope you enjoy!

(Disclosure: I drew the character, but found the BG image online and it's prooooobably AI generated. But hey, if it's okay for them to steal our work to train their generators then it's okay for me to steal their shit and use it for my own purposes. Lol. I'll be redrawing that background when I have time and will upload the new file when it's done.)
Age: 25
Height: 6' 2" (~188cm)
Weight: 200 lbs (~90kg)
Profession:
* Wanderer
* Assassin (Former)
Skills:
* Hand-to-hand combat
* Single-dagger combat
* Stealth and infiltration
* Tracking (humans)
Bio: Kairo was raised in Te'i Sai and came to be known as "The Demon." The reason lies in his methods. Whereas other Assassins were trained to kill in a single stroke and leave, he was trained to kill in a single stroke, but not stop with that stroke. Instead, he would butcher the target even after death to create as grisly a scene as possible before making his exit. This brutality spread his reputation as The Demon across the entire continent by the time he was still only in his late teens.
Speaking of training in Te'i Sai, the shadowy organization typically trains its operatives in stealth, endurance, speed, flexibility, and escape artistry. Combat is not a focus. It's a last resort if and only if you get caught. Kairo, however, is the exception. As you can see from his FC, he's ridiculously ripped and has an impressively athletic and muscular build for an assassin. He was trained by the Grandmaster to be the test for his vision of the 'next evolution' of Te'i Sai, as he believed the current way was too soft, too weak, and lacked the kind of raw power needed to truly take the organization to its full potential through not only stealth and excellence in all things assassination, but through strength of domination if and whenever necessary. Kairo was a failed experiment due to his eventual rebellion and slaying of the Grandmaster in single combat, rising to the rank of Grandmaster before immediately handing it over to another so he could leave in peace. But had the Grandmaster survived and Kairo perished he would have at least been proof positive that the vision was sound, and just lacked finesse (aka more brainwashing and building dependency on the organization and respecting the Grandmaster's position unconditionally).
Having freed himself from Te'i Sai and made the deal that he walks away clean and they never bother him again in exchange for him giving the role of Grandmaster to Korvaiis, formerly the second in command prior to Kairo's rebellion, Kairo now wanders the world in an effort to understand the lives of normal people, as this was withheld from him since his earliest years as a toddler. He grew up without knowing the love of his parents, the bond of siblings, the community of the common folk, etc. Now, he's determined to reconnect with the humanity the Grandmaster stole from him. Thankfully, his isolation while in Te'i Sai ensured the world never knew his face (with very few exceptions. So, he's free to wander without hiding.

Age: 24
Height: 5' 4" (~162cm)
Weight: 110 lbs (~50kg)
Profession: Doctor and Apothecary
Skills:
* Knowledge of: Anatomy, surgery, medicine making
* Communication
Bio: Lorraine was born in Cretas, the capital city of Valkyom, and raised in a broken home which ended in a messy divorce, separation from her stepsister due to said divorce, and eventually being disowned by her mother after she announced that she would attend the foremost medical academy in the nation. Her attendance at the Valkyom Royal Academy of Medicine was made possible thanks to one of her mother's connections, whom Lorraine went to behind her mother's back, as well as her own dedication to the life of a healer since an early age giving her a leg-up against most others who chose to study at the establishment. Due to her dedication to her craft, or 'overdedication' in the eyes of many, saw her graduate on an accelerated program when she was only 19 years of age, and officially the youngest graduate in the academy's history. She immediately petitioned the city of Cretas for funding and permission to open both an Apothecary and Clinic on the outskirts of the central market, as there were two foreclosed buildings available for her purposes. It took over six months of negotiation and proving herself and her skills worthy of such a loan, but she succeeded and officially opened the Almna Apothecary and Clinic shortly after her 20th birthday.
She has been a beacon of light, warmth, and hope for the city and her community ever since it opened. Neither her clinic nor apothecary ever turn away a patient as they choose not to see race, social status, language, financial situations, or any other potentially disqualifying barrier the people may face at other similar medical establishments. One other benefit is that entry is free, which is something she fought very hard for during the negotiation phase while trying to secure funding and permits to open her clinic. Because of how warm, fair, and welcoming she is in her capacity as a doctor and apothecary, she's become known as "The Angel of Valkyom" and her reputation is well-known across the entire continent.
As a final side note, Lorraine is among the very select few who know Kairo from his time as The Demon. And she's one of only two characters who actually believed in the idea that there was a human being buried beneath the persona Te'i Sai created around him.
