Shraer

[Feather]

Your character's full name: Shraer
Age: 29 years old(238 years old)
Species: Unknown(at least 1/2 vampire)
Gender: Male
Appearance:

With a towering , lithe, frame Shraer's smooth movements are often described as cat like, grace graceful and quick ,but when the time comes for a kill robotic, and jerky. For unknown reasons he seems to have a inability to gain weight leaving the visible parts of his body (mostly his hands) skeletal in appearance. This is odd when compared to the muscular frames of the rest of his 'species' the reapers.

Due to the lack of a main source of light in his homeland his skin is just as pale as any vampire. Setting off his coal black hair, and causing his light less ice blue eyes to glow of their own accord. Due to quite a bit of pain in the tooth he refuses to open his mouth wide enough to expose his teeth, with his luck Toki would find out.

Most of his 6'11 frame is covered by a long flowing cloak, in black much like his boots, shirt, and tight pants. Most of the time he pops the black with a bright colored scarf,(wrapped around his nose, and hanging loosely over the hem of his shirt)usually using a sky blue one to differ himself from the other individuals of the Assassin's council. Which of course have always tried to get the better of him.

Occasionally when ordered to 'dress up' Shraer opts for another scarf around his waist and his black cloak gains a slightly lighter Grey hem. The hood of his cloak is always up, even if its tattered, burned, or soaked in blood.

Belongings:

Shraer while having access to the arsenal of the Vampiric Monarch does have his own weapons, which he prefers:

• Scythe-A rather simple weapon its hilt is long, straight glossed rosewood. The entire weapon comes up to about the top of the hip. Through many smokings the edge of the razor sharp blade has become scorched, and dusty, making it lusterless. The black hilt was at one time carved with the name 'Duncan' but that has long since been sanded out.
  
  
• Daggers- Shraer has two of them. One is straight, and rather short, used for parrying stray sword strikes, and for making a quick kill. The other is also a smoked blade, with a simple black hilt, but is curved in a demi-circle. This is used to catch swords.
  
  
• Noose-A new weapon to be added to his belt he has gradually turned it black. The noose is dropped over a victims head and pulled for maximum effect, or eerie silence.
  
  
• Scarf- While faded it was a one time a bright sky blue, and made of silk. Now the ends are tattered and torn, but it still serves it's purpose of disguising his lower face. Where it came from is unknown, but it is very valuable to him.
  

Personality:

Shraer is oddly quiet. Used to it in his profession , of course this makes the room he's in rather tense, and his quick nods are not the bet thing to reply with when he sometimes needs to be the diplomat.

For the most part it is nigh impossible to bring a smile to his face, and very hard to make him so much as giggle. In his profession one always needs to be alert and serious. So he wasn't raised to have a sense of humor, and unless it involves death he doesn't understand jokes or sarcasm.(which he uses in his thoughts quite a bit.)

Trying to get Shraer to think differently or to do something he doesn't want to is like trying to make a mountain roll over, it takes a lot of power, and plenty of logic. Shraer is easily described as stubborn, and stuck in most of his ideas unless its a way to kill, and which way is better.

While not chauvinistic by nature if a woman beats him at anything then they are instantly disqualified due to being female. Most of the time he calls anyone but the queen that is female 'woman' or 'girl' and refers to them b their name only when he wants something.

Strengths:

Shraer is very fast, and adept with his weapons, holding a trained warriors instinct for knowing what to do in deadly situations given your options.Of course while fast he is not very good when it comes to extended battles, and is used to his opponents quickly meeting their ends

Weaknesses:

Shraer has no social skills, and when it comes to solving problems not needing murder he is a little lost. Of course due to his inability to understand humor and sarcasm he often finds his temper flaring up for no reason.

Not to mention he is always rather hungry , and lacks any reason for this.

History and Background Information:

Shraer was not always devoid of a last name. His father was a reaper(a mutt species of a assassin) and his mother a vampiress, and a gypsy. The troupe of Gypsies had long ago forbade the mixing of their women with men, but shraer's mother disobeyed resulting in Shraer and his sister. In the all female troop even if having a child wasn't allowed the punishment wasn't great, but for having a male child?The child had to die.

The leader managed to send out a warrior to take out Shraer's father, but she didn't have the heart to kill the baby, but Lucky for Shraer he was picked up by his father's assassinating partner who had lost him a year or so back in the forest.

Taken back to the compound he was kicked out when he refused to bow to the Reaper leader, and at 13 he found his way to Dem's castle. The reaper and the future king grew up as the closest thing to friends Shraer had. When Dem took the throne he put Shraer as head assassin, and after the king met Mai the relationship slowly faded.

Yet Shraer still protects the king. Of course one mission made him roll his eyes. He was forced to kidnap(NOT KILL) a seer by the name of Toki, but ended up being saved by her when he was attacked by a large Band of his own kind, who he had beat in play battles as a child.

After Toki arrived at her new home, the injured Shraer in her infirmary.(which no one else had wanted to work in) she managed to get hi him talk, and the two became tight allies. Although Shraer denies its anything else.

Now though he and Toki are seen as a rather odd couple, but with Dem sick Shraer spends a lot of time pacing back and forth, and snapping at Toki. Not to mention without Dem's help the assassins are getting closer to killing Shraer, the last incident almost snapping his spine.

For now though Shraer is on a new mission , that involves finding medicine instead of murder, and so far he has failed dismally.
(horrid.Sue me.)
