General:
Alt Name: Xin
A brief description of your character: Ebon colored skin and white hair, he is lean and of average height. Mostly he's adorned in blacks and browns for clothing, although almost all the time he is seen wearing a black cloak which conceals everything. Identity, weapons, clothing, etc etc
Why/How is your character in Skuldhellir: Xin has always been a nomad of sorts, though settles down for long periods of time before moving again. As of late, he is here at Skulhellir for a few very important reasons...
Magic (OPTIONAL):
---Max Preps (1-10): 2
---Schools:
Necromancy - 2
Strengths:
---Natural:
- Infrared vision(Racial): Unlike most other people, he sees the heat coming off of people, making it very hard for anyone to sneak in the dark towards him. Day and night are virtually the same for him in terms of vision.
---Learned:
- Assassin: Knows the most efficient, quietest, devious ways to appropriately kill someone after decades of training.
- Acrobatic: Quick, articulate, and hard to keep in one spot.
- Exceptional one-on-one fighter: Skillful. A little better than an average swordfighter.
- Silver Tongue: He's a smooth talker, and knows how to lie well.
---Supernatural:
- Orb of Darkness(Racial, once a day): 3 preps. Generates a dome of darkness with a 10 foot diameter. Anything caught within is blind and all sound is inaudible.
- Faerie Fire(Racial): 2 preps. Marks target with a signature of flame. It doesn't cause any pain, but it does help Xin by flaring up the target and allowing him to better see the heat signature of his target.
Weaknesses:
- Even though he's an exceptional one-on-one fighter, he cannot fight well against any more than one. Easily overpowered, in other words.
- Frailer than most other races, and has a lower fortitude/endurance.
- Sunlight(Racial): It burns. Not really. But it makes it harder for him to perform the best he could. In the sunlight, Xin is weakened to the point where he can't perform any effective combat maneuvers, he is even MORE frail, and his sight isn't clear.
- Lighting(Racial): Inside lights such as candles and other mundane sources also weaknen him, but only his sight.
--- He's not really able to do much in the daytime, in other words, effectively keeping him to the night hours. ---
- Overly ambitious: Could get him into quite a bit of trouble. He might, say, decide to stage a grand heist and despite the impossible chances, will still go through with such a thing until success or failure is imminent.
- Easily distrusted at a first glance. It takes more than a few conversations for someone to actually like or want to do anything with Xin. As such, he has few allies.
- Correlating with the above, he is distrustful of others, further hindering his ability to find allies in times of need.
- If there's one thing he's soft for, it's younger people. Children, young adults, etc. He can never bring himself to kill any of these type, unless there's an extreme involved.
