Skandar Keynes
Name: Cameron Waterfield
Species: Human
Height: 6’0”
Weight: 165lbs
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Straight
Body Type: Skinny
Eye Color: Dark brown
Hair Color: Very Dark brown
Skin Color: Pale white
Relationship Status: Single
Personality: Determined and hard working, Cameron is a very focused person and when he sets his mind to something, he’ll damn well try hard to get there whether it takes a day or a year. He’s quietly confident – behind the loner persona, he’s not shy. He’s more inquisitive and confident, he just doesn’t show it on the surface too well. Cameron is also very calm. It is very hard to ruffle his feathers and he keeps his nerve exceptionally well under pressure. However, he can be selfish – he’s not a very trusting person, he keeps a lot to himself and doesn’t like sharing. He can also be incredibly fickle. He can have a habit of going his own way rather than sticking to the plan; he’s been on his own this long why should he start trusting others now?
Fighting Style: Calm and collected. Cameron will work out a strategy before striking and he will seek out higher ground, not only for the sake of his weapon but also for the surveillance opportunities it can give to him. He can strike with a calculated attack, rather than charging around blind
Hobbies: Reading, cartography, archery, hiking
Habits: correcting people, if he thinks they are wrong, he’ll correct them immediately.
Being his own team
Rolling and unrolling his sleeves
Likes: quiet, maps, dark forests, mountains
Dislikes: loud places, alcohol, close combat
Fears: mildly claustrophobic, it’s more discomfort than an actual fear. Mildly scared of snakes; though he plays it off as hatred for them.
Bio: The Waterfield family made a big name for themselves in the property market as a property refurbishment form attached to an estate agents chain. Of 3 siblings, Cameron is the youngest and by their standards the black sheep and rebel of the family. He never got on with his two older siblings as they were more alike than he ever was. He spent his childhood racing through the woods whilst they were busy being taught the family business at home. Annabelle and Jason are willing heirs to the family business - Jason being the oldest, is already a partner at the firm and works closely with their father. Annabelle is the middle child and she moved overseas to stay in the business to build a partnership with overseas businesses. Cameron is the youngest and has no idea what he wants to make of his life but knows that he wants nothing to do with them, instead being interested in maps and history. He’s the rebel of the family in that sense. Zala takes a liking to him for it as he’s the least spoilt and takes the least for granted with her, though he can still be a brat.
He found the bow one day on one of his misadventures in a forest. He came across it in a ransacked tomb - the bow being the only thing of value left behind. He was going to leave it behind too when it called out to him. Being a fellow archer, she felt a connection and wanted her freedom after her previous owner died fighting in a battle against magic hundreds of years ago.
When Cameron found her, she continued to mourn for her previous owner. She cared for him because he cared for her and part of her resents Cameron for not being Ethelrae. She was crafted into his bow and spend her life with him fighting side by side until she was buried with him. This was so long ago that the modern world perturbes her and she is resentful of the new-founded things in this new land
Description of Weapon:
Weapon Name: Fothaes
Weapon Type: Shortbow
Weapon Personality: Mildly possessive, yet distant. She offers insight into fights, schemes and directions with self-confidence and authority. She is not talkative and isn’t personal with Cameron - it’s almost a strict business relationship. She had a more personal relationship with her previous owner and it is mourning for them that has made her so distant and almost resentful towards Cameron.
Weapon abilities:
Blaze: the arrow shot from the bow will erupt into flames upon contact with a surface
Strike: the bow will release a lightning strike rather than an arrow
Hawkeye: the bow will allow the user to see up to 50m further than their eyes will allow and provide a more accurate target to aim for
Relationship with owner: as above, Fothaes is distant from Cameron and their relationship is formal and business-like. She is resentful that she has him now rather than her previous owner.
Faceclaim:
Kathy Bates
Name: Zala Underbridge
Species: Gnome
Height: 3’2”
Weight: 20kg
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Body Type: Pudgy and broad
Eye Color: Dark brown
Hair Color: salt and pepper blonde.
Skin Color: Ruddy and tanned in places that see the sun regularly
Relationship Status: Single, though some would say unhappily married to her weapon (see below)
Personality: Zala is a cranky and easily irritated gnome that gets by with sending everyone a grimace and a huff. She is obedient and fiercely protective, particularly of the Waterfields but she will mumble and grumble as she does so. She is motherly and very hard working, and she loves a good gossip. She can also hold a grudge and can be quite conniving when she is riled.
Fighting Style: Rough and ready, Zala will swing for the weak spots and ask questions later. She can be a loose cannon in that she doesn’t think about her actions before she takes them.
Hobbies: Complaining, watching fish in the garden pond
Habits: interrupting others, picking her nose, sneering at things she dislikes
Likes: Bossing Izzy around
Neat and tidy rooms
Fish pie
Dislikes: Kameron’s older brother
Being interrupted
Babies crying
Fears: Spiders and woodlice
Bio: The Underbridges first began working for the Waterfield family in the 17th century and since then they have been born into service and died under the same family name for centuries now. Zala was born into service and as soon as she was old enough she started working alongside her mother for the Waterfields. She enjoyed working with her mother and learnt a lot from her, especially when she learnt about magic. The stories were passed down through the Underbridge generations, alongside a box containing a mysterious object that nobody had seen, but all believed had magical powers that would one day reveal themselves. On her deathbed too early, Zala’s mother presented her with the box to carry on and give to her own children in the future. That night, Zala’s mother passed and she became the sole gnome working in the Waterfield household. She grew closer to Kameron, the youngest of the three children in the household, as he was different to the other two - he made her laugh because he was defiant and so calm about it. He wasn’t cocky like his older siblings. It was during the celebration of the new year - the year of the sheep that the box opened and Zala was... disappointed to find that it was an old rusty iron. She almost threw it back under her bed when she felt the chill of the presence within it. It introduced itself as Isiah and she could sense the magic it held. She scrubbed it and made it shine as much as she could, then tied it to her belt. It has kept her company ever since.
Description of Weapon:
Weapon Name: Isiah, nicknamed ‘Izzy’
Weapon Type: Iron
Weapon Personality: Isiah is old at heart and a complacent weapon, happy to take orders. However, like Zala, he is prone to complaining and disagreeing, though in the end he’ll follow Zala’s commands and thoughts.
Weapon abilities:
Extend: the iron’s wire can extend at will to however long the user needs it to be.
Heat/flare: the flat iron itself becomes red hot and acts as a heated plate to attack with
Steam: the iron will shoot out hot steam.
Generally, Isiah is used almost like a kusarigama, with his long wires being used to entangle the enemies, or used to flail the iron head to hit and damage enemies.
Relationship with owner: Kameron often jokes that Zala and Isiah are like soulmates, saying that they bicker like man and wife but pull through in the end. A lifetime of serving others meant that Zala was finally given something that she could have some control over when she was given Isiah. He is complacent and allows her to tell him what to do, though he will complain and let her know about every discomfort he feels. They have a close bond and work very well together; they just bicker and argue all day long about anything that they can. In this way they are similar to one and other.
