Personality: Jackal was a proud warrior of the Westari Clan, upholding honor as he fought mercilessly against others of his own race that were not of his tribe. Compared to other Gorgas's though, he was easy to talk to and socialize within his own tribe. He enjoyed hunting animals as a hobby, which sometimes translates over in his fights with more intelligent creatures.
Jackal, since the death of his tribe, has been scarred by the loss, and becoming much more reclusive. He is a creature of few words and only acts when he feels he needs to. But beneath that quiet and patient demeanor, is a thirst for bloodshed, which he will happily inflict upon the monsters that plagues this world.
While he may show off a few times when he gets lost in combat, he is overall a humble warrior, and respects all others who follow a similar path, be it less violent or of another race entirely. While difficult to talk to, once a bond is made he will never betray an ally or a friend, but expects the same devotion from others as well. Should one perform such a dishonor would translate to a rage without mercy.
Habits: Minimal 2
- He has an acquired taste for flesh, particularly racial flesh such as elves, orcs, humans, and other Gorgas. He hides this tendency as he is self conscience of how the others will see it as taboo, and it is almost more of an addiction.
- Prolongued combat can drive him into less of a civil warrior and more of a savage beast, especially when wounded or provoked enough.
Hobbies: He loves to collect gold and other valuables from defeated foes or as rewards for jobs. Additionally, he loves to hunt, mostly wild creatures, but sometimes he tends to hunt more intelligent prey as well. That being said he very much enjoys nature.
Fears: - Loss, he cannot stand loosing another loved one, should he make one again. Another reason for his reluctant communication. He cannot stand the emotional pain that comes with loss, such things can drive him mad and scar him deep, naturally fearing such a fate and would sooner die then to experience it again.
- Illness. Experiencing his own tribe being wiped out by the Dragonsbane Virus, seeing anyone remotely ill stricken can cause him great worry and dismay. He does not like the idea of dying at anytime other then in combat, especially a slow and painful demise that could make someone so weak and helpless all the while. Part of the reason why he now interacts with the rest of the world as a mercenary is in hopes of finding a cure to the virus that threatens him.
- Winter. The season itself brings out the cold conditions that cold-blooded creatures such as Jackal despise. Cold elements and enviorments discourage him emotionally as well as weakening his vitality overall. Like diseases, he is terrified of the thought of dying in the cold, alone and frozen. Should he ever get caught in such an environment, he will go to extremes just to keep warm.

A listing of skills, such as horseback riding, and natural abilities, such as night vision - this also includes any racial edges
- Skill: Close quarters combat; His natural weaponry and durability (Claws, speared tail, fire breath, etc) combined with his brutish strength can easily overpower even monstrous foes. More over, his combat style varies between his moods. In a more calm demeanor he can be quiet skillful with his sword, but in a further enraged state he will forego traditional swordplay for brutish swings and similar tactics, making him hard to predict. His racial strength and size are factors to look into.
- Skill: Hunting; His natural vision (eyes that can glow in the dark) and the strength of his smell from his forked tongue makes him an excellent tracker, and his experience as a younger since a hatchling has given him a talent to stealth in various natural environments despite his monstrous size.
- Skill: Hand Crafting Equipment: With the right materials he can makeshift primitive tools and wares such as tents or stone spears. If having access to metal and molten liquids he can even hand craft various metal weaponry of his design, albeit not as structured or good as more traditional and advanced techniques.
- Skill: Bravery: Even with his fears, he is not afraid of death itself, and in combat such fears would usually only make him fight more aggressively then flee. While this in of itself may result in victory or loss, it is difficult to intimidate him.
- Skill: Wise with Age: Being so old, he has much experience with the natural world and both its wonders and horrors, he a sound mind despite going into a few enraged states here and there, aside from angering him there are few other things that can taint his conscience. Rarely does he act brashly outside of fighting tactics.
- Skill: Protector: Fearing loss, he will be sure that he will be injured before an ally. Sooner he die then someone he is assisting. Allies that are near him should expect him to be a giant shield.
