Here he is!

Name: Viltez (Villagers call his Tezy)

Race: Half-breed

Age: 23

Height: 5' 9”

Weight: 135lbs

Hair: Scraggly, gray, shoulder length, but very uneven. He tries to keep it parted, but it doesn’t listen very well.

Eyes: And odd shade of Blue-green.

Skin: Very lightly tanned.

Build: Fit, well muscled, like a track runner, so not scary in the muscle department.

Clothes: Simple purple rough spun tunic with black leather belt cinching it at the waist. The tunic is longer than most and almost touches his knees. Bottoms are a pair of well worn brown breeches with a strange furry “Belt” around the top. He wears old hard soled brown leather work boots most of the time.

Accessories: And old bronze ring given to him by his father. Engraved on it are a wolf and a lion intertwined with one another. The ring has been passed down in his father's side of the family for generations.

Powers/Skills(If Applicable): His belt is actually a tail he inherited from his father's side of the family and despite his never using it in an effort to hide his heritage, with a little practice it could become a formidable weapon. Other than that he's rather strong from years of hard labor working around the village, and he has a basic understanding of a multitude of handy skills.

Extra: His tail is long enough to wrap around his body twice, and about as thick as a grown woman's wrist. It's covered in fur that matches his hair in color, but is more like the furn on a Russian blue. At the end if a seven inch long, sharp, bone blade, shaped like a hawk talon and pitch black. He keeps the tail wrapped around his waist under the tunic like a belt with the hook tucked under the tail in the front.

General Personality: Viltez is a very open and honest person. He's very likable, and is kind to those in need. He feels that everyone deserves as many chances as it takes for them to “Get it right”. He's always quick to tell a joke or do a little shtick to get a laugh out of someone who's down. The only time he seems secretive is when asked about his family. When the topic comes up he'll either change the subject or say he'd rather not talk about it and go quiet until someone else does. He gets easily irritated with people who take advantage of other, or are ungrateful for a kindness they've received, and more than once he's decked someone for being an ass. However he doesn’t like hitting people and does everything he can to avoid it.

Background: As a young child Viltez grew up with his father at the edge of a great forest. He didn't know that they lived there because father's people kicked him out for having a child with a human, nor did he know his mother was killed by her family for bearing a child from a Beastwalker. The long bloody wars between the two races were never known by the little boy. He spent his days with his father, fishing, hunting, learning to weave and work with wood. Eventually the embers of war once again were fanned into a blaze and they could live in peace no longer. Viltez was twelve by then and able to fend for himself for the most part.

His father brought him to a nearby human village in the middle of the night and gave him a long tunic. He told his son that he had to hive his tail and just be a human. That would make him safe, if he could just be human. He said the words over and over until he was sure Viltez understood. His father left that night and he hasn't seen him since. At first he lived just outside of town, coming into town each day to just look for work. He was careful to keep his tail hidden and eventually there was a fire and the town was in need of a few extra hands to do the repairs. While working with the other men of the village he overheard a lot about the war, and that is how he found out why his father had made him pretend to be a human in a little backwater village.

Hunting for his own food and repairing his own clothes, Viltez eventually saved up enough to build his own hut at the edge of the village and has lived there ever since. He has no real shame in his heritage, but even after getting close with many of the villagers he knows they would turn on him in a second if they found out what he is. As such, he's never been in any kind of romantic relationship, despite several of the village girls' attempts to change that fact. He keeps to himself most of the time, but when he's out and about he keeps up a friendly face and is rather content with his life.
