Appearance:
Standing slightly shorter than other Valorfellan Argonians his age, Aruk's scale colour is black mixed with crimson, especially over his face to give a 'bloody face' effect. He is relatively fit, having a slightly muscular build and athletic body. His head is adorned with spikes and horns that aren't curved, and his eyes are a fierce amber brown.
He usually wears an iron cuirass, but wears hide tapered like long loincloth and wears leather boots and bracers. Around his neck is a gold crescent amulet on a steel chain he always wears, and Aruk always has his iron halberd close to him wherever he goes.
Background:
Aruk Si-Rak grew up in the nomadic life all Valorfellan Argonians know. His father was one of the many warriors that protected Akethari, and his mother was a huntress. Beside Aruk was his twin brother, Taluk. Each day wasn't to be wasted, Aruk was taught, and each day he and his brother were put to work from an early age, learning the hardship they would have to face to grow stronger.
Years go on as the city of Akethari moved across the dunes of the Southern Deserts, and Aruk and Taluk begin to take on more tasks. They both becomes apprentices to their father, and Aruk begins to practice with his weapon of choice, the Halberd, whilst Taluk practiced with the Spear. Eventually, after years of rigorous tasks, exercise and training, the twin brothers are disciplined and broken into strong warriors.
But instead of staying with the city, Aruk struck out on his own and left for the wide world, becoming a travelling mercenery. He left behind his family without a goodbye.
But Aruk still keeps his memories of his family with him. A gold crescent amulet that was one half of the moon amulet he and his brother shared, given by their parents.
It was only 2 months since he left his people that he met a Seraveen named Crystal. The Dominion had conquered half of south Euraiya, and he had been ambushed by a Dominion patrol. Crystal found Aruk after he had slaughtered the genocidal patrol, mortally wounded and close to death in the Grimmvale forests.
She saved him, and formed a close bond with the Argonian. They both shared a passion for wanderlust, and together became a sort of dynamic duo. Crystal needed someone to protect her from beasts and people's unaware footsteps, and Aruk was indebted to her for saving his life.
Ever since then, the two have wandered out of and into the wartorn lands, helping whoever was in need and sometimes even for free.
Now the two find themselves in Grimmvale as the rumoured Tiberius Azklan begins his campaign to free the Empire.
Personality:
Quiet, but not shy, Aruk is hard to make conversation with, but he is fiercely loyal to those he deems worthy of his loyalty. He makes friends through comradeship most of the time, but seldom makes them through normal means. He can enjoy a good laugh occasionally, but takes his job seriously when it comes to working for others.
Job:
Mercenary
Skills:
Survival Skills, Advanced Combat Training, Halberd Training, Armour and Weapon Repair
Traits:
Strong, Swift, Skilled, Experienced, Disciplined, Honourable, Merciful
Magic:
None.
Talent:
-- Si-Rak Crescent : Aruk wields his Halberd in a certain way, and has been inspired by the Crescent Shape. His own special Si-Rak Crescent is a sudden swipe with his halberd that is so subtle and swift that it leaves a glimmer that forms the shape of a Crescent Moon. Apart from looking shiny, the Si-Rak Crescent is useful for sweeping enemies out of Aruk's path, and can kill foes wearing inadequate armor to save them from the axehead.
Strengths:
His discipline and honour as an Akethari Warrior, Aruk will spare a foe more often than not. He is a skilled warrior, and years of training and plenty of time facing real foes have hardened his skills In battle. In combat, his halberd is just as much his strength as it is his weakness, as he puts all his trust in the one weapon.
Weaknesses:
His discipline and honour as an Akethari Warrior, Aruk will spare a foe more often than not. It is also his closeness and sentimentality at heart that makes Crystal, and anyone else that he calls friend, his weakness. In combat, his halberd is just as much his strength as it is his weakness, as he puts all his trust in the one weapon.
