Age: Before the Curse of Ikana set in, he was around 30 years of age. Now, with the Curse of Ikana giving him undeath, he's several thousand years old.
Race: Ikanian; as a strange and foreign race never seen in Hyrule before, many would be wary of him, especially because of his skeletal appearance.
Gender: Male, but that's pretty useless now.
Appearance:
Like most Ikanians, he is skeletal in appearance with veins of some kind of magical energy running through his body, and his pride keeps him from obscuring his features with a cloak. He almost radiates pride, and despite his face being unable to show emotion, one could almost see he was a proud warrior. He wears the traditional Ikanian armor and clothing commonly worn by the nobility of Ikana.
Theme Song:
Personality: Proud, ancient, arrogant, blunt, pretentious, devout
Backstory: Ilgos was one of the mere thousands of Ikanians that survived the conflict that ravaged Ikana, and the curse by the Four Giants made things worse by locking Ikana in such a miserable state for turning to Majora during a time when the Four Giants were absent. However, while the curse convinced Ikana to return to the Four Giants, the damage was already done with the creation of Majora's Mask. In an attempt to right their wrong, Ikana sealed the Mask in shadow, hopefully forever lost to all knowledge. They could never know how wrong they were.
The Happy Mask Salesman, a collector of masks, unknowingly set in motion a chain of events that would ravage Termina. After going to great lengths to find Majora's Mask, he finally found it, only to have a mischievous Skull Kid knock him out and steal it. The Skull Kid didn't even realize the dark power he held, using the Mask's evil for mischief and pranks. As the Mask forced its will on Skull Kid more and more, however, the pranks became more and more malicious, eventually devolving to brutal murder. But even that would never compare to Skull Kid's final "prank".
Majora's Mask disguised its will from Skull Kid by instilling a vendetta against the Four Giants in the creature's weak mind. Skull Kid wasn't sure why he hated the Four Giants so much, but he knew he did. He visited each of them and forced cursed masks onto them, transforming them into terrible monsters. Any who tried to stop Majora's Mask never made it past these cursed guardians, sealing Termina's doom. With the Four Giants out of the way, Majora's Mask had checkmated in this dark game of the god it represented. Majora's Mask seized total control of Skull Kid's body, and his fairy friends could only watch as the husk of their closest friend committed one of the most atrocious acts in history. Majora's Mask used its dark and terrible power to force the moon out of orbit and bring it crashing down on Termina.
Ikana could only watch in horror as its creation reappeared, against all the odds. Some tried to flee despite how hopeless things were, and Ilgos was one of these people. Though proud, Ilgos knew that if all of Ikana's remnants died, there would be no hope at all of breaking the curse and restoring Ikana. So he at least tried to escape, and against his own expectations, he did. He wandered deep into Ikana's wasteland, with mere hours left before the moon collided, and got caught in a sandstorm. The storm was violent and his bones screams as the sand abraded them. He was just beginning to think of how strange it was for there to be a sandstorm in a region with mostly dried up mud as the ground when it stopped, and he found himself in a desert near sundown. To his surprise, the sun didn't burn him like it normally did. Looking in the distance, Ilgos saw some kind of fortress, and decided to make his way there.
The residents of the fortress, which seemed to lack males of any kind, proved hostile, and after they attacked Ilgos knew he'd have to be smart about it. He drew on the shadows to darken a path to utter blackness, which proved to disorient his attackers and gave him enough time to run out through the fortress to more hospitable lands. At least, he hoped he'd find better lands on the other side.
When he came upon a large field, a whisper tugged at his consciousness, pulling him to the northeast towards what it called the "Hero of Time Festival". He was confused and disoriented, so he started in that direction in the hopes of finding out what happened to him.
Skills/Talents:
1. Ancient Warrior (Combat): As an Ikanian, Ilgos is an ancient warrior with several thousand years of life, and much of that time was spent honing his skill just in case the Garo decide to attack again. In particular, Ilgos is most familiar with longswords, the blade of choice for Ikana. Because he spent so long honing his skill, combined with his surviving a brutal conflict that nearly wiped out the kingdom he served, Ilgos is nearly unmatched in single combat, rivaling Darknut soldiers in combat skill.
2. Skeletal (Combat): While making him a bit more fragile, his skeletal nature also makes him more agile, giving him a better ability to avoid hits. He is still not as fragile as he appears, as he is held together fairly well by the curse.
3. Curse of Ikana (Magic): The Curse has proven to be both a curse and a boon. While it makes it more difficult for him to blend in (not that he really wants to) and marks him as abandoning the Goddesses (not that he really cares), it also grants him eternal life and a very slight talent in the dark arts of Majora, allowing him to have extremely limited shadow manipulation. This is really limited to drawing on already existing shadows to darken an area slightly to give him an edge in physical combat. The Curse, like any curse, is a double-edged sword, of course. In order to survive, Ilgos must spend a portion of daylight hours under shade lest he burn under the sun. Unlike Termina, Hyrule's sun seems to affect him differently, taking longer to burn him where Termina's would instantly incinerate him.
4. Sewing (Practical): As a warrior, the more ceremonial portions of his attire, which are cloth coverings for the armor, get damaged quite often. As such, Ilgos knows how to repair clothing after thousands of years of mending his own attire.
5. Leatherworking (Practical): As with the clothing, his armor becomes damaged as well, more easily than the heavier armors such as that of the Darknut Legion. As it is made of tough yet flexible leather, repairing it is far different from the platemail that is more common in Hyrule. Ilgos is a natural with leather, with much experience in working the fabric as well as repairing it.
6. Blacksmithing (Practical): Because his shield and sword are both made of some kind of metal, he picked up blacksmithing to repair them when needed.
Goal(s): To find out what happened to him and discover a way to resurrect his lost kingdom, if this is even possible.
