Name: Terren Keto
Age: 18
Gender: male
Appearance:
His skin is very pale, though not quite deathly, and he has a skinny but quite lean build. The irises in his eyes are both red, but when using his abilities or in battle, his whole eyes glow a bright white.
Personality:
Terren mostly tends to be a quiet, perhaps slightly removed character, not talking really unless needed, and he tends to be good at keeping secrets or just keeping his mouth shut when needed. He is kind enough, and hates seeing children alone or in trouble, because he knows what it feels like to be rejected and alone, or to be mistreated by another.
There may not seem to be much to the man from this outwards appearance, however beneath the quiet, there brews a storm. There goes a saying, "When the quiet man angers, the devil shivers". This could not be more true in Terren's case. When angry, there are few men who could stop his furious rage, and he would kill anyone in his path who tries to stop him acting out that fury upon its source. This has happened once, as he saw a man beat an innocent child to death, he leaped upon him from up high, and beat him senseless, not even with a sword, but just his fists pounding into the monster's face, still some time after his death. Taking the child, he buried him as best as he could, putting a small stone to mark the grave, inscribed "an innocent soul".
In his current life, when not being given a mission by those in command, he would go out and try to do justice to those who would harm children, and to help those who were alone and hungry. He was a charitable soul, and still is to this day.
From his parents he inherited a good sense of humour - he can joke around a little, but draws the line when people think to harm another is funny.
Short Biography:
William never really had a normal upbringing, as even before Drisbane was cut in two, his parents were both killed by a thief in their jewellery shop. They were in fact formerly a wealthy family in the Palace district, but he ran away as he saw them slaughtered before his very eyes, living on the streets for a while before he was found by an old man, who took him in, sheltered him, and gave him food and drink. A wonderful act of kindness to a poor, lost boy.
Or, so he thought. The man kept him locked within his house, of which he thought little at first, but came to realise he was not going to let him leave any time soon. Despite him wanting to escape, he was a little boy, so eh did as he was told. The old man taught him his unique techniques, even if he didn't want to learn, and taught him how to fight, and to use those techniques in combat.
When he learnt his soul-stealing ability, though, the old man was on his deathbed. The old man forced him to use it on him, the man who'd taken him in, yes, and kept him safe, but also the same man who'd kept him locked up save for training outside of the house against gangs and other lowlife, and never let him do as he pleased.
Despite himself, he cried as he did it - the man he hated, yet the man he loved like a father, almost, at the same time, was now at peace. he didn't want to stay in the Palace. There were too many bad memories here. To remind him of the old man, and to remind him of the parents he once had.
The Guardians was where he decided to go - the best place for him to use his abilities as best he could, and it'd aid him in saving children from circumstances like his own, and worse. Not to mention bringing to his own kind of justice those who caused their misfortune.
Faction: Guardians
Stats:
Might: 4
Finesse: 4
Fortitude: 3
Health: 3
Speed: 2
Perception: 4
Abilities:
-
Wraith fire - projects a cone of shimmering white fire, damaging and knocking back all those within its ~5 metre range. This makes the palm of his outstretched hand glow as he casts it.
The fire of a wraith does not burn, but it can be far more useful in combat
-
Execution - A devastating attack with very high damage, but that requires close range to use. His sword glows when he uses this.
The fastest way to a man's heart is usually a sword
-
Stealer of souls - steals a small amount of health from an opponent, and a randomly picked single stat. Exhausts him when used repetitively. Has a short range of about 2 metres. His open mouth glows when doing this.
Your soul is delicious!
Equipment:
- Bound blade - This katana is not stored like conventional weapons upon one's person, rather, it is a summoned, magical construct, made from a rune upon the hilt of an otherwise bladeless sword. It can be extended to have a longer range, or shortened to act as a dagger.
Its nature helps greatly with preventing himself being disarmed, as he can simply dispel the blade momentarily and then re-summon it to slash as the enemy once more. Casting and adjusting are the only things that costs him any mana, unless it takes a hit that would otherwise damage the blade, which takes the most.
-
Throwing knives - other than perhaps being sharper than most, there is for once nothing unusual about these small throwing knives, which he keeps along each arm on leather holders.
-
Under-armour - beneath his clothes, he keeps some light armour that won't stop a sword careening straight for his chest, but might prevent him being stabbed in the chest, neck, or legs with a normal knife.
- Bound armour - similar to his blade, this armour is actually a series of tattooed runes around his body, that summon glowing, transparent armour around himself. It weighs relatively little, but still has as much protection as good armour. Similar to the sword, the only things that take mana are casting and taking damage. They are summoned simply by him thinking he wants to summon them, as they are like a part of his body.
