Description: This younger middle-aged man wears a weathered and beat up set of banded mail beneath an oversized green coat, and a wedding ring on his left hand. He keeps his long golden hair kept up in a rat tail. His voice is smooth and creepy, always level, but somehow just slightly unnerving.

Personality: While he acts the brute, he is far gentler than he would appear. Around other people he will do his best to conceal his emotions and appear jolly.

History: Born in a small village he learned the ways of the warrior from his mother. His spouse left him for another, whom he beat to an almost bloody pulp. He did not win them back, but he came to a realization. To get what you want from life, you must take it. He remains aloof and afraid to be himself due to all the ideals others have placed upon him.

Judging by the bloodshot nature of his eyes and the massive bags underneath them one would imagine he has not slept for days.
