The Dark West

@Ragenaut What exactly are you thinking about?

The Dark West

@Ragenaut@Xandrya@SorcererMaster8@unfallenangel Bump still interested?

@Varromere@RyuShura Anyone who has a problem with her or wants to hurt her can get ready for a dance...

@RyuShura I could see Xho desperately trying to get Talia to trust him and always looking out for her. She on the other hand just sees a younger version of her torturer, making that pretty difficult.

What if Xho's noble father is the warlord that tortured Talia? @The Narrator

@Varromere

Now that would give them both a person to hate and though possibly forming something of a bond, perhaps Xho feeling incredibly protective like an older brother for Talia, to somehow make up for the sins of his lineage. @RyuShura How do you like the idea?

@TemplarKnight07 I could see the two as kind of buddies, having done a few hunts together and Xho listening and laughing at the bard hunters tales.

@Kaiachi I see a great potential for friendship! They both love the fight and a good laugh.
There might be something there!

@BurningCold I can see mutual respect since they have the same determination and hatred.

@TemplarKnight07 Now here I see two people who had both been abandoned by their fathers and were born into bad circumstances. Also both seem to share the ability to make people laugh. This could be a real dynamic duo.

@Mr_pink They probably know each other and did a few hunts together. A bit of friendship but mostly respect perhaps?

@Argetlam350 Both had very religious upbringings although Xho motivations in life are far less noble. The probably don't have that many problems with each other.

"Those who think our methods are too extreme have never seen a horde of their dead relatives."

Appearance: Xho is a 26 year old, dark skinned, slender man. His whole body appears to be lacking any fat but is neither a bulk of muscles. He is athletic in appearance and about average in height.
His long dark hair is bound to a single long braid, decorated with feathers, rocks and pearls. His clothing is mostly light leather armor of the order, again decorated with the traditional rocks and pearls of his home. His right arm has a red tattoo of a serpent spiraling from Xho's shoulder down to his hand.

Biography: Xho was already born into the world a cursed child. His father was a noble of the Jzarean empire, his mother one of his slaves.
And out of one fateful night the young boy was born, unfit to grow up as a noble, but still with noble blood. So young Xho was given away to the temple of the snake goddess. The priests treated him relatively well, him and all the other children no one wanted, bastards and so on. Here he was also trained. Realizing what talent the young boy had he was shipped away again into the deep jungle to become a bladedancer for the goddess.
Bladedancer use a strange weapon called the Quetza,a sort of cross between a whip and a sword. In the jungle Xho was trained every day in the use of the exotic weapon and in general combat. He got bruises, he got scars, he even lost parts of a few fingers but he got stronger and better. But everything changed when he got 17. He still remembered everything.
All dead bladedancers were buried in the yard of the temple that trained them. That was the tradition. And they all were formidable warriors. While most undead don't keep the skills they had in their lifetime, the bladedancers that were reanimated by a necromancer through some foul magic somehow did. And they slaughtered the temple to get even more bodies.
The only reason Xho survived was because he ran. He saw the hordes of bones, weapons and rotting flesh and ran as fast as he could.
It was after he ran three days straight, nearly dying from thirst and exhaustion that a group from the order of Cinders found him. after they explained the were hunting the necromancers, Xho immediately fell on his knees and declared he would join them.
Hearing that he already had the fighting training and the motivation, Xho was send for further training to the house of fire.
It has been about 10 years that Xho was with the order and he has become a respected member. Even though some of the other members sometimes wonder and laugh at his exotic weapon and looks the have learned not to underestimate him when he does his deadly dance, shredding limbs and cutting bones...

Personality: The years in the Order and the countless near death experiences have changed Xho. He got that sense of dark humor and cynicism that only a member of the order could have who faces death every day. However he also has a fire of rage against undead burning inside him, still feeling guilty that he ran away like a child on that faithful day. He also was raised with little regard to human life, witnessing sacrifices to his goddess daily, also he feels protective of his comrades in arms, he sometimes fails to see the value in the life of the villagers he is saving.
His faith is also a difficult topic, since Xho was raised exclusively in temples he has difficulty letting go of the mysticism and rituals of his former home.

And anyone else any more questions or ideas?

The Dark West

@Dark Light Looks pretty interesting!
I haven't really thought that anyone would make an Asian character but why not! Most people will react hostile to an Asian however in those times.
