Travelers Beware! The mountains are ruled by no king!

All righty then. Let's see if I can use a straight sword properly. First time I've ever tried my hand at it.

Auz of Bavaria

Name: Auz of Bavaria
Age: 27
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 150 pounds
Race: Human

Weapons and Equipment-



*Steel cuirass, tassets, greaves, half helm, and gauntlets. The works, you know.

*120 cm straight sword

*steel buckler

*Two knives, a stiletto with a 7" blade and a gauche dagger with a 12" blade.



Appearance- Auz is slender but sturdy man, with a light blonde bowl cut and large, blue eyes rimmed in red, as if he rarely gets good sleep. He has cruel eyebrows and usually wears a leonine expression, that of a man ready to fight to the death at a moment's notice. Over his heart is the tattoo of an ouroboros.





Abilities/Skills- Auz is an aggressive, calculating swordsman who employs techniques from the German School of Fencing, as well as irregular moves of his own design. He's highly versatile and creative with his long sword, able to use it in just about any way that can be imagined. Additionally he's skilled with his two knives and at using his buckler as a weapon, and has no qualms about using any part of his body to fight.
Physically, he's got a heavy lean towards speed over power. He's frightfully fast, a sort of Bruce Lee among fencers, so to speak. Naturally it's not possible to swing a sword as fast as a fist, but regardless most warriors that encounter Auz for the first time are utterly taken aback by his diabolical swiftness. He's not overtly strong, per se, but can hold his own in a grapple.





Personality- Auz is cutting and sardonic, his dark wit (the man enjoys his one-liners) born from pessimism. He cares not for status or friendship, being a solitary soul in search of nothing but that which gives his life meaning; war. He doesn't like alcohol or other substances, and only enjoys the company of women after a battle. His solemn, irreverent mentality isolates him, but he's not necessarily a "bad guy". He fights for the underdogs when he can, and doesn't partake or suffer the killing of the helpless. That being said, he doesn't care for hostages. Should an opponent try to use another life as a bargaining chip, Auz would just as soon tell his adversary to go ahead and see how much worse of a death they'll get.



Background- Auz was born in the age of Germanic kings, a disowned prince whose lineage was thrown into obscurity. From the moment he could walk, until he was fourteen, he was trained by the best fencers in the land. Before his next birthday he was given to a distant uncle and sent away, yet was quick to get into the fray and put his skills to the test. He killed his first opponent at age 15, and went on to become a mercenary.

He spend his adulthood mastering his trade, devoting himself to the way of the sword as he cut down foe after foe. Old Auz was a regular Musashi, and soon other fighters started seeking him out, desiring to make a name for themselves. The only names they got were those carved on their grave markers.

little else can be said of Auz. There were no dramatic affairs, no arch rivals nor emotional conflicts. He traveled, he fought, he did the hokey-pokey.

ALL HOPE IS GONE (Xavier Vs. Auz)

Auz the Undying

Name: Auz of Bavaria
Epithet: Auz the Undying
Age: 462, but only about a youthful 27 in appearance.
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 150 pounds
Race: Human, semi-immortal

He's not overtly strong, per se, but can hold his own in a grapple.



Auz is unable to physically age past 27, and has the ability to come back to life four times against any single opponent, hence his epithet. His body will resurrect within thirty feet of where he died after a period of ten to fifteen seconds, his corpse fading into a crimson glow than vanishes and then reappears in a random spot, which then forms into his fresh (and fully equipped) body. This means that in order for him to die for good, the same warrior would have to kill him five times in a 24 hour period. Every day that passes without him dying to that opponent will return a life to him, so that if an enemy kills him twice and then waits two days, said enemy will be back at square one. Perhaps it's a good thing for opponents that Auz isn't the type to retreat. Furthermore, every time Auz dies he becomes 25% faster than he was in his previous body for a period of twenty-four hours. On his last body against a single enemy, when true death looms, Auz will have gained a full 244% increase in speed. His body does indeed become somewhat tougher and stronger in order to withstand greater speeds, and yes, Auz can commit suicide if he kills himself five times in a day.

He killed his first opponent at age 15, and went on to become a mercenary.

When he was 19, he encountered a Swiss witch that promised him a form of immortality in exchange for his immortal soul. He agreed, and she bestowed a tattoo of power upon him, that of an ouroboros, the serpent that endlessly eats its own tail. What had gone through Auz's head to make him accept the unholy bargain? Simple. He made up his mind that when he died, as all things inevitably do, he'd lay down the hurt on every single infernal entity that stood between him and the soul he'd sold, laying low demons and devils until he got it back. Not a likely outcome, but who can question the will of a resolute warrior until it's put to the ultimate test?

I'll have the thread up in a little bit.

@ELGainsborough

I'll post in a bit. Right now I've gotta take care of a little college business IRL. I should have a character and post up in a day or so.

GLASS PRISON (Chico Vs. Xil Gil)

@Athinar

Most of the skin on Xil Gil's right pectoral and arm was more or less vaporized. The ultra-fine striations of the metal muscles beneath were dented in in some places and given multiple hairline ruptures in others, the muscle strands that snapped doing so with extraordinarily loud popping sounds, like dozens of m80s going off. Chico's leg would probably break in the cyborg's grip, but before Xil Gil could utterly smush what he was holding into paste, his body hitched up and his grip faltered, giving Chico a chance to escape. When Xil Gil's body took damage, he not only had his grip strength weakened but he also lost a slight degree of control, at least temporarily until his systems adjusted to the new structural power balance. It'd only take a second, but in combat a second is a long time.

Should Chico still want to grab at Xil Gil's head, he'd be able to do so but in a moment the cyborg's left hand would flick up in an attempt to snatch the mercenary by his right arm at the elbow. As for what Chico could effectively twist? Well, he could probably twist Xil Gil's nose and ears real good, which would only hurt a little bit. Xil Gil had pain receptors, but they were very dull.
