Now that I will launch the RP, I will also include a five day grace period. Get pumped and get psyched for this one!
Already am!
Soon I hope
Alright mine is now pretty much done
Name: Hadrian Romuald
Gender: Male
Age (18-21 year zone recommended, given age inflation of 1.5 years for every 1 modern year): 20
Faction (Asasiyun or Templar): Templar Sargent
Bio: Born to a middle/lower class family in the heart of Prague, Hadrian grew up in the shadow of Vyšehrad castle. His father a merchant of modest acclaim, much of the early life of Hadrian was consumed by lessons, that while not to the standard of the nobles, still gave him a few minor advantages (among them the ability to read, and write, however both of these are still preformed rather slowly for the best results).but despite this, he always found he was most happy sneaking up the nearby hill to the Castle to watch the Garrison at Vyšehrad. Watching them the young Hadrian dreamed, he dreamed of something more than the small shop in the city, so he practiced. Following the example of the defenders as they trained Hadrian would routinely return home to use his family iron fire tending tools, or at least heavy sticks on site, poor substitutes for the swords and spears used by the Garrison, but they did the job. But train as he might the station of knighthood, even a position as a squire was out of his reach, so when the chance to join into the crusades presented itself he jumped at it.
Terror and exhilaration, these two things gripped Hadrian in his first engagement. It was a small skirmish of a couple hundred, nothing like the battles he had heard of, but blood flowed that day. In the midst of it all the relatively young crusader saw a knight getting de-horsed, a spear catching his left shoulder and spinning him out of the saddle. Moving quickly Hadrian, and a few other spearmen moved to defend the wounded knight. They fought bravely, there few number slowly beginning to be ground down, but yet they surrounded the knight until the day was over. After the fighting all went their separate ways, the night being taken by a few Hospitlers, Hadrian and his remaining fellows retiring to their camp. Weary from the fighting Hadrian collapsed into a slumber, that was awoken all to early by a figure standing over him. Looking up at the figure the first thing that Hadrian notticed was not the mans face, no it was the white Tabard emblazoned with a red cross. Scrambling to his feet faster than he thought possible with his weariness, he came face to face with a gruff looking man, stubble shadowing his face, he was near middle aged but wore it well. With a slight smirk at the infantry man's quick get up the man introduced himself as a brother of the Knights Templar, and that apparently the man that they had saved yesterday was one as well. He said that the injured knight had spoken well of his protectors, and their skill in combat. He finished by saying the the knight wanted to reward the remainder of those that had protected him. So A few asked for gold for their family, others for a simple blessing, but not Hadrian. Hadrian asked for a place among the order. Hadrian waited for the laugh, the glare, the inevitable denial. Instead what he received was a warm smile and a nod, he was told that if he truly wanted this he would gather his things and follow the knight.
That was years ago now, and though his lack of rank has prevented him from full knighthood Hadrian has risen as a respected and skilled Sargent, and he wouldn't have it any other way
Personality: Hadrian is usually lighthearted, a smile to be found, but that can change in the instant steel is drawn. then his entire demeanor changes to one of a cold, professional soldier
Strengths: Wields his broadsword and spear with practiced skill (even matching, and surpassing some full knights), has a higher than average education for a lower class, is a fantastic adapter in combat (Eg: moving from one to multiple enemies, moving from spear to sword, and using "Unconventional" moves and tactics)
Weaknesses: Lacks the ability to effectively ride a horse in combat, has a high sense of honor, lacks a noble's education level
Appearance (words or pictures, though a picture says a thousand words):
In Armor
Other (Height, Weight, distinct features, etc.): Is about 6'0'' an weighs around 178 Lb unarmored.
(will continue work on this an will have it done tonight)
