I'll keep an eye on this.

Ten-Dom

Name
Vice

Age
20

Gender
Female

Crew Position
Swordsman

Race
Human

Appearance
Vice isn't your ordinary woman. Since the very moment she was born, she stood out for three things ; her ashen hair, her snow white skin and her blue eyes. She grew into a beautiful woman of average height, with short hair, a slender physique and an obvious love of kimonos since they're practically the only thing she ever wears. She could easily play the girlish, fragile princess role if not for the katana always by her side.

Personality
Vice could be described as a social chameleon. She can be charismatic, cheerful, silly and pretty much anything if that gets her closer to her goal. That's her mask though, not her real self.

To be brutally honest, even Vice herself isn't sure of what kind of person she is. There is only a handful of people she trusts and around them she's usually quiet and relaxed with a peaceful smirk on her face. On the other hand, when on a mission or around people she doesn't know or like she is a cold and seething person, always calm but ready -and eager- to strike without mercy at a moment's notice.

Other than that, a trait which she is oblivious to is that she's probably the most literal person to ever exist. For example her revolutionary Commander, Alzac, still tells the story of how she gave him a crude drawing of her sword after he asked her to draw her blade in order to assess her skill, shortly after they met.

Backstory
If you ask her about her past and you're lucky enough to get a serious answer, you'll learn that she was born a slave. Her parents were sold to a nobleman in Sabaody Archipelago and then taken to South Blue where she was born.

Deep into South Blue, Vice lived a somewhat good life -for a slave- with food and clean water and only a few beatings every month. However, she wasn't and still isn't the kind of person to accept fate, destiny or whatever you call it. While both her parents urged her to forget escaping and do her best to pass unnoticed, every day that passed she got stronger as she had convinced another slave, and old man who claimed to have been an infamous pirate worth 25 million beli to train her.

By the time she reached 16 years of age, she was stronger, faster and more agile than she could ever imagine. Yet that was only the beginning. She spent every day of the following year training and forming her escape plan and once she felt ready, she simply vanished without a word to anyone. She had no idea about the hell that would follow.

A few days after the escape, the slaver who owned her announced that he'd kill her parents within two hours unless she returned. And unfortunately, she did. The beating she received left her unconscious for days with only the old pirate looking after her since her parents had been sold. Three days later, she vanished again. The following night, she broke into the nobleman's mansion, stole his family's heirloom katana and roughed him up until he ordered all the slaves freed. She left the island with her new blade and the old man who said he knew where to go next.

The rest of her story she keeps for herself although what is known is that she joined a cell of Revolutionaries and carried out many missions in South Blue until some time three months ago when she joined a dojo in Pol Stictid.

Appearance Picture

Personality

What kind of personality could someone considered to possibly be the greatest assassin in the history of Iliviace have? That of a ruthless, mindless sadist? That of a cold, manipulative and treacherous psychopath? Bryn might look like he's both at times, both a sadist and a psycopath yet he's not. Not truly. Contrary to the belief that their training has succeeded in stripping him of his humanity, Bryn has had thoughts of his own, voices familiar and true yet foreign and intimidating. Voices which he knows he's not allowed to have yet he yearns for. Killing silences the voices thus he doesn't enjoy it, never did anyway. Yet, random things seem to please them, a flower in the middle of the winter, the warm sun and the way its rays play with the hair of that girl that he smiled to him once, so many years ago. It drives him crazy, the randomness of it. He doesn't understand his conflict and he doesn't really know which side he should support ; that of his masters, the side he has known since forever or the new one, the one which doesn't tell him how to proceed nor how to act but how to feel.

To sum up, Bryn blindly follows every whim of his masters, be it to poison a pregnant princess or to abduct a duke's favorite hunting dog. Yet, deep down, he has started to slowly question his existence, what he is, what he is supposed to be and what he would like to be.

Skills
Master Duelist - In the bleak days of his early years, Bryn found beauty in the very first of the tools he'd later use against the enemies of his masters. His talent in fact made him an accomplished swordsman by age 11 and put him above most if not all swordsmen by his 16th birthday.

Master Survivalist- Be it a deep wound or the harsh weather, lethal poison or unknown magic, few things have the capacity to truly faze his alchemically altered body or his unyielding will.

Expert Martial Artist - Training under the finest martial artists of the north combined with his natural affinity towards violence make him a formidable opponent with or without a weapon.

Expert Weaponmaster - Be it a sword, a bow or a spear , Bryn has spent years of his life mastering their use under the ruthless training regime of his masters.

Journeyman Alchemist - Potions and poisons are an integral part of an assassin's repertoire and especially Bryn's.

Flaws

Human Weapon - Since the day he could stand on his feet, his masters have done their best to strip him of every single sign of his humanity, of every single emotion and of any thoughts of his own. He is a machine bred and raised in order to do all those things god-fearing men cannot, hollow, unaware of the beauty of life simply because he was never given the smallest chance to. Truly a weapon which looks like a human.

Limited thinking - Bryn has been taught how to kill and how to think in order to do so in the most effective way therefore it is almost impossible for him to think out of the box. In other words, it's a miracle he has survived this long without even a hint of common sense, like avoiding bathing in frozen water or casually grasping a hot coal.

Magic Spells
Absolutely no knowledge of any magic as it is considered a knowledge which only the royal family is meant to possess.

Abilities WIP
•Legendary Swordsman: He fell in love with swords in the very moment he held one and his Deep Magic couldn't have affected anything else considering the absense of emotion in his life.
-Inhuman reflexes: Fighting one man or ten makes no difference to Bryn. His already excellent natural reflex enhanced by Deep Magic make him capable of even avoiding arrows and bolts as the world suddenly appears as slow as a snail.
-Precision striker: He isn't trained to waste time nor energy by hitting where it doesn't kill. He maximizes his lethality by almost always removing the opponent's ability to fight back in a matter of seconds by hitting particular nerves or joints or when he really is in a hurry, cutting the hand (or head) clean off.
-Dual-Wielding: In rare occasions, when truly cornered Bryn uses his trump card, his self-developed fighting technique which no man has witnessed and lived to tell the tale, the ability to wield a sword in each hand and go all out. He has only used this once, against a proud minotaur who had escaped its cage and 14 year old Bryn was sent to subdue.

Backstory
(Where did they come from, what makes them who they are, where are they going in life and what made them legendary? Do note, there haven't been any land-threating villains for at least two-hundred years - meaning that legendary acts are limited to a single kingdom at most -- BE SURE TO READ THE PLAYER'S MANUAL ON DEEP MAGIC AND HOW IT'S ACQUIRED!)

Mostly done with the character sheet, too tired to finish it right now, will do so tomorrow along with the kingdom sheet.
