Character Sheet


Basic Info:

Name:
Len Haruseme

Title:
Thunder's Augustus

Age:
28

Height:
5'11"

Appearance:
Amongst his people, Len is an abomination. His abnormal growth and muscle mass has corrupted the standard long, slender frame of the Aleani, into a hulking giant of 5'11", with an astonishing weight of 200 lbs exactly. His monstrous body is wrapped in soft, earthy toned skin, like brown autumn leaves during fall. Coincidentally, there is further similarity between Len and leaves present within the linear patterns in his skin and the veins in a leaf. These lines form intricate designs that cover his entire body, converging at a single point to form a Strange Symbol on the back of his neck. Though you would never know it, for the symbol is always obscured by dreaded locks of brown hair, which fall just passed his shoulder blades. His face has long since been a victim plagued by these obstructions. Often, stray, rampaging lochs will seek to interrupt the world seen through Len's deep brown eyes, which discern that he has seen much more than his youthful features let on. This fact is reassured after hearing his voice that is filled with the certainty of knowingness from experiences pass.

Weapons:
Gaia's Defender

- First you get ore mined straight from caverns farther inland that has been crafted into the finest mithril possible. Combine that, with wood from the elder trees in the Sylvan forest, and you get the best weapon nature can forge. At least, that was the merchant’s sales pitch when he marketed it to Len.

Many, many, years ago... Len bought this pair of swords from a traveling trader, who swore Len would never lay his eyes, let alone his hands on a better weapon. The trader called them, Gaia's Defender, which he thought was another marketing ploy to target the high concentration of Pirates in the area. But true enough, the weapons were superior in their creation. Not once have the blades ever failed him in combat. Aside from reinforcing enchantments which ensure its effectiveness, Len hasn't made a single modification.

Len still uses these blades as his primary weapon. Their name coincides with his occupation, making them very befitting for his ownership. At all times they are firmly placed in a custom sheath: one is located on the left side of his back while the other is strapped to his left hip.

Gurkha Blade:
- This is a curved knife, similar to the machete, used as both a tool and as a weapon. It is symbolic amongst the Aleani when used as a weapon, signifying the courage and valor of the bearer in the battlefield. The blade's distinctive forward drop is intended to aid the cutting action by having the edge maintain an angle (rather like a guillotine) rather than just have a straight edge at right angles to the target, this angle provides a more "slicing" action similar to a draw-cut with a machete or saber. The Gurkha Blade is effective as both a chopping and a slashing weapon. In combat, it is used in two different styles: stabbing with the point, slashing or chopping with the edge. Because the blade bends towards the opponent, the user need not angle the wrist, which makes the Gurkha Blade more comfortable as a stabbing weapon than other straight-bladed knives. Its heavy blade enables the user to inflict deep wounds and to cut through muscle and bone. As a tool, its use has varied from building, clearing, chopping firewood, and digging to cutting meat and vegetables, skinning animals, and opening tins.
