hey i just got fired 2 days ago i got TONS of time on my hands
im on 4 or 5 times a day now
hmmm character time...
((reading up on nordics i find that traditionally nords had light hair and blue eyes... huh))
Name: Haele
Male
Age: about 20ish, old enough to have gone to war but young enough to have not figured out his place in the world
Visual Description: 5' 4" dark brown hair and eyes. Heavily muscled. Scar from sternum to right side.
Weapons of Choice: Short Swords, Nets
Positive Perks:
Survivor - After taking a sword to the chest, few survive. Haele refused to let go, dragging himself from the battle he was able to hang on long enough to reach a small hut. Luckily the old lady living there had extensive knowledge on healing wounds. ((I'm open to the idea of dragging myself to Old Matilda))
Swordsman - in a time when swords where owned by nobles only, the fact that this youngster has one, let alone being skilled in it, is one of the rarest sight to behold. Not willing to leave behind something that almost took his life he tucked it in his belt as he left the field. During his convalescence, he practiced constantly. His style may not be professional but it does the trick.
Left-Handed - Using the opposite hand in battle is a very hard skill to learn. This man was born using the off-hand. While used to fighting right-hand people, few are used to fighting left-handed people.
Negative Perks:
Left-Handed - a social stigma exist for the few truely left-handed people. Some say they are devil spawn, others say they are weak and cowardly. Either way Haele knows no friends and is often shunned, even the old crone kicked him out when she noticed it.
Refuses to use spears - Having almost lost his life when a swordman cut the head of his spear, he hates evening touching them. He carries the spear head with him at all times to remind him of what happened to him when he trusted a spear last.
Low endurance - He's still recovering from the wasting effect of infection and fever. Battle doesn't effect him much but things like running, hauling, and lifting quickly drain his stamina.
/// i think that is everything
Edit: some of this is changing due to some talks me and Yarnspinner are having
