Name: Matthew Garbrick
Age: 22
Allegiance: Church of the White
Position: Holy Knight
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 165lbs.
Hair Color: White
Eye Color: Blue as the clearest sky
Gender:Male
Written Appearance: Matthew goes to great lengths to ensure his appearance falls in line with how a noble holy knight should look. He keeps himself well groomed and clean-shaven. Matt exercises frequently to keep his physique in order and keeps himself well-built and muscular, but not overly so. The rough and rugged facial features of his father have been tempered by the gentle beauty of his mother, leaving him with a strong jaw, but also making him appear far more kind and approachable compared to his old man.
Personality: Strength. Courage. Honor. Faith. Duty. These five principles have been beaten into his head since birth by his father. He holds himself to only the highest moral standing and always seeks to do what is right. Matt judges himself harshly and attempts to uphold impossibly high standards that he has set for himself. His duty as a holy knight comes first, everything else is secondary.
Matthew is on a never-ending quest to earn the approval of his impossible-to-please father. Besides his duty to the Church, this is his primary motivation.
Background: Born the son of a holy knight it was inevitable that Matthew would end up becoming one himself. He was taught in the ways of the Church of the White from birth and his father drilled into his head the principles of strenght, courage, honor, faith, and duty. Matthew looked up to his father and wanted nothing more than to earn his approval, but nothing he ever did seemed sufficient.
Thanks to the strict upbringing it wasn't all that difficult for Matthew to earn himself a place among the holy knights. He would always strive to take on the more dangerous and difficult missions in order to impress his father, but alas, it was of no use. His old man would never even given him so much as a pat on the back. To this day he continues to push his limits and repeatedly force his body to the breaking point all for the sake of hearing three words.
"Good job, son."
Current Story: Mattew is currently wandering the realm atop his trusty white horse named Silas. He seeks to perform great deeds in his ongoing quest to please his father. The more dangerous and difficult the better.
Weapon: Subjugator: Matthew's weapon of choice is an Arc in the form of a warhammer that he has dubbed Subjugator. The weapon has the ability to unleash blasts of concussive force capable of blowing holes through solid rock, rupturing organs, and shattering bone. The head of the hammer will begin to glow with a white light after which he has two options. He can either launch the bolt of energy forward with a swing of the hammer after which it will detonate upon hitting a solid object, or he can simple strike his opponent directly with the supercharged hammer. Hitting an opponent with the hammer does more damage as the concussive blast is more focused onto one area.
Ability: Shield of Faith: This ability allows Matthew to create a white barrier of magical energy in order to protect himself and others. The shield is in the shape of a half-dome with an eight foot radius ensuring plenty of room for others to take shelter behind it. The strength of the shield is tied to is resolve. As long as he holds firm and remains resolute the shield will not fall. However, he is unable to perform any other actions while maintaining the shield.

That's what I have for now. I'll add in a writing sample later, because it's currently 1:30 a.m. and I should probably do that sleeping thing. Let me know if anything needs to be changed, if it totally sucks, etc.
