Name: Arthur Pendragon

Appearance:

Stands at 5'11
Has an ethereal blue handprint emblazoned over his left pectoral

Power: Knowledge of cantrips. Cantrips include, Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Minor healing, minor illusions (which he hates using because he considers it to be lying.)

Limitations: Arthur has little to no knowledge of how the modern world works. As well as that, he legally does not exist, making it impossible to find normal employment. He also has hydrophobia due to childhood trauma.

Skills/Talents: Trained in swordplay and archery. Know's the general basics of sewing, hunting/tracking, wilderness survival, horse riding, and alchemy (medicinal not magical)

Background/bio: Arthur was born during a time of war, to a single mother. His early youth spent growing up around the brothel his mother worked for. Born the bastard of a whore, the folk of the land looked down on Arthur, treating him like a pest more then a person. These formative years went a long way to teach Arthur about respect and honor. Alas his time with his mother would be cut short by the invasion of the Saxon forces. As war and turmoil spread rapidly across the land his mother knew she would not be able to protect her boy. But her prayers would be answered with the arrival of a stranger.

He said his name was Merlin, and that he had come in search of a child destined to save the land. That boy, of course, being Arthur. At the age of 9 he left home to begin his training. Over the next eight years, Arthur would be taught the importance of morality and compassion, and under Merlin's tutelage he would learn the way of the sword. As Arthur grew, so did his talents, even showing an aptitude for magic and science. This would push Merlin to increase his training, knowing the knowledge he instilled in the boy would one day be used for the people.

As the day of reckoning drew near, Merlin knew Arthur was not yet ready to take his place as savior of the people, so he enacted a new plan. Calling upon the forbidden arcane art of temporal magic, Merlin ripped a whole in the very fabric of space and time. With one final word of wisdom Merlin cast Arthur forward through time into the distant future where, with any luck, he would mature into the man his kingdom needed him to be.

Now all alone, in a foreign land full of corruption and hate, Arthur must follow his heart if he is to ever return home.
So I am extremely interested in this concept, but before i get too far ahead of myself I figured it only wise to check if my character would fit the vibe. Bare bones concept, ancient knight/wizard in training gets flung into the future. There is a lot more to it but I don't want to ruin the surprise just yet.

Those of you who are history buffs might get a big kick out of the character I'm creating.

Welp I wasn't able to find an image from the time frame close enough to what I had imagined so, But Gary Cooper is a good runner up. I was super close to going with old scraggly Dean Martin from his Cowboy film days, but he just didn't have the right aesthetic for the personality I hope to portray.
It is an actual photo. I just ran it through my art studio and switched it to sepia tone, If you would Like I can post the original photo to show you. It's from a series of Red Dead Redemption Cosplays.
