Your character's full name:
Species: Red Fox
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Martin 'Ghost' ArtekAge: 24
Species: Red Fox
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Ghost is a sinewy fox, thin yet strong, just above average height for one of his species. His reddish fur gives stark contrast to the arcane tattoos he bears over his back, and on his right arm, in flowing geometric patterns, the only discernable object being that of a black crescent moon with a dot placed inside its circumfrence. He rarely wears a shirt, though he does have a mind to wear trousers and an old sharkskin belt. His grey eyes observe with a sort of casual indifference as he treads silently, his expression neutral.Belongings:
Ghost has practically no belongings, gathering what he can from the land. He does have a tarp to use as a makeshift tent when it rains, and other smaller items wrapped inside that few beasts deemed to have any value whatsoever. Even so, the fox carries an odd sheathed sword, curved like a scimitar but having a slender blade and an elongated handle for a two-paw grip.Job or Position:
Cheiftain's nephew of the Far NorthPersonality:
Ghost wears a naturally passive expression, being quiet and observant by nature. Sometimes he can be quite sarcastic, which is probably his only constant emotion aside from a guarded, reserved quietness that most beasts find odd. Though he also has an air of quiet confidence, which stems from his patient and observant nature. He stresses that anger does not exist, and other emotions are mostly selfish indulgences that must be put aside in order for tasks to be completed.History and Background Information:
Ghost lived with a superstitious clan of foxes in the Northern mountains, who led a simple life, hunting for birds and fish in the valleys of the great mountains, fighting other clans for control. During this time Ghost was trained at a young age the ways of the hunters, now armed with strange steel blades which came from the southernmost clans. When Ghost passed the age of seven, his 'uncle' fought and united all the clans into one united state. A state of relative peace reigned over the land, until the great Chieftain began to fade, as did the alliances between the clans. Ghost was called upon by the clan seers at the chieftain's passing, accusing him of poisoning their leader as he was to be the heir of the Cheiftain's title. He was banished from the land unless he could prove his dedication (And therefore his innocence) by bringing a token from the Sea. He set off at the age of twenty-three, having no idea in which direction the great Sea lays, as he had never seen it before. So he journeyed south, hoping to return successfully from his pilgrimage.Any other details:
He is called Martin by coincidence, as the clan had captured an old mouse who spoke of the famed warrior. Ghost's mother liked the sound of the name, and insisted that she name their son 'Martin'.Code Words: -correct-
