Blade a atterri sur son balcon, juste de retour d'un travail de nuit. Apparemment, un voleur s'en prenait à un étalage particulier depuis environ une semaine maintenant et le propriétaire avait finalement renoncé à attraper lui-même le voleur. Le travail avait été beaucoup plus facile que prévu car il s'est avéré que le voleur était juste un enfant qui pouvait courir plus vite que le propriétaire. En fait, il s'était amusé avec l'enfant, non pas parce que c'était un enfant, mais parce qu'on lui rappelait un peu de lui-même à cet âge-là, et il lui est tout juste venu à l'esprit qu'il était très possible que ce n'était pas vraiment un enfant, juste une des courses qui n'étaient pas aussi grandes que les autres ou vieillissaient lentement. Il s'est maudit mentalement pour sa bévue potentielle, il est entré dans sa chambre et a pris son paiement, un joyau vert sur la taille de sa main, et l'a mis dans un coffre caché pour le stockage. Il n'aimait pas avoir plus d'argent qu'il ne pouvait transporter et vendre ce qui le mettrait définitivement à l'abri. Toujours pas fatigué dans la moindre des choses, il a décidé qu'il visiterait le marché. S'il avait de la chance, il l'aurait rencontré et aurait pu confirmer son âge, en plus de dépenser son argent pour quelque chose. Le stockage, ça ne lui ferait pas de faveurs d'ici peu.
Name: Blade
Age: 27
Race: Avian
Race Explanation: An offshoot of the Harpy race. Avians resemble humans in appearance in just about every way possible, the only difference between human and Avian
being the flight enabling wings that sprout from the Avain's backs. They are also far lighter than humans, or other races in general, in order for flight to be possible, though this also means that they are also far more fragile than humans or other similar races. As such they are rarely ones to start, let alone participate in, conflicts unless they have strong allies backing them or no less than certain victory. Some call them cowards, others opportunists, but they call themselves wise.
Personality: Somewhat of an oddball compared to his fellow Avians, Blade not only starts fights, he's made a profession out of it. Essentially a sword for hire/jack-of-all-trades he'll take on any manner of job for the right price, be it acting as a bodyguard for an entitled individual to fetching ingredients for a warlock. He is able to kill without a shred guilt; however, it is mostly due to his pragmatic view on killing in that he is only doing what he is being paid to do.
History: Blade was separated from his clan during an attempt to escape from humans bent on "purging the evil man-beasts from Athara" even though the humans were completely unprovoked. He survived mainly by fooling and then stealing from humans when he learned how exploitable they were if they couldn't see his wings. He survived this way until he was about 17 when he managed to steal a sword from a merchant who had been dumb enough to let him hitch a ride on his cart. After stealing the sword he eventually found his way to the Bastion where he set to work making a new life for himself, naming himself after the first thing he could call his own.
Powers/skills: Blade, as his name suggests is a capable swordsman, his sword of choice being a claymore. Seeing as he is an Avian, he is capable of flying for extended periods of time. Additionally, while Avians are not particularly known for their magical capabilities, he has picked up Geomancy through a few odd jobs he's done for warlocks and their ilk.
Common Inventory: Other than his sword, his armor, and his pouch of valuables, Blade has little else he doesn't either store away for emergencies or liquidate into funds. Of the few things he does go through the trouble of toting around, one is a first-aid kit and the other is a well concealed dagger.
