Description

Tall and imposing, well toned, but not overly muscled. He stands at around 6ft 5" with broad shoulders. He wears a floor-length black trench coat, with black fatigues and millitary boots underneath. His bald head is decidedly sinister, with a "Satan" beard. (see picture if you don't know what that is.) He is 45 years old.

Personality

In a word, ruthless. He roots out his enemies, or those who would stand against him, and destroys them utterly (often in freak "accidents"). However, he is a man of his word, and looks out for those who would side with him. His mind runs in a very millitary manner, assigning every task priorities and protocols. He knows how to keep his cool in the worst of situations, and is an expert at lying and bluffing, good enough to put some politicians to shame.

Equipment

Two Colt .45s in hip holsters, an Ares FMG tucked away in his breast pocket, and a variety of knives hidden all over his person. He is very profficient with all of them. He also carries a hand-held computer that is capable of performing various tasks, and keeping track of whatever he needs to keep an eye on.

History

Born in Scotland, Alaric was just one of those people who was always getting into trouble. Even when he was a kid he spent long periods of time in juvenile prisons. The offences he committed were numerous, ranging from breaking and entering, to arson, to simple antisocial behaviour. Eventually, he was old enough to be involved in serious organised crime. He was sent to prison numerous times in his late teens and early twenties for vaying offences, most notably armed robbery and murder. When he got out, he was contacted by the Russian Mafia, who needed somebody to work internationally. He climbed quickly through the ranks, until he was the head of their overseas operations. The profits he netted in arms deals with terrorist groups, the drug trade and other illegal avenues were massive. Massive enough for him to split off and start his own front within the UK. He rose to prominence within two years, eliminating his rivals and merging with his allies. He still maintained good relations with Hotel Moscow, however, and did a few odd jobs on the side for them. Recently, he discovered the Proxi plane, and instantly saw opportunity. Here was a world free of competition, where he could start over, and not have to worry about law enforcement, for the most part. Wherever there are people, there is crime. And if there's going to be crime in the Proxi world, he's going to be behind it, at least in part. So it is that he has gathered his resources and entered the plane, leaving behind a legacy of crime that will be truly hard to best.

Alaric Klausner's Story

Alaric Klausner walks slowly through the streets, every movement appearing to be full of menace. This world wasn't what he'd been expecting. There were rivals here, after all. And law enforcement, too. But it was nothing like what he'd had to put up with back in his own plane- he could easily overcome it. He had only come down to the square to see what all the fuss was about, though now that he had arrived, he still wasn't sure.

Alaric Klausner Laughs at the words of the strangely bug-eyed man who had approached him. It couldn't hurt to converse with the man, and he might learn something. "That would depend.", he answers, his voice decidedly sinister, "On what we are celebrating?"

"There is nothing wrong with the common man. More power is contained in the actions of the masses than any poltician or ruler." He replied. He wasn't much of a fan of the music playing, but he did recognise what seemed like a couple of good magicians. They could easily be turned into con-men for his operations.

"Alaric Klausner. Rest assured, you'll probably be hearing it again in the near future." he answered, his voice laden with implications. Suddenly the strange bloke simply turned and walked away, without even giving his own name in reply. How rude.

Alaric Klausner Walked over to the magicians in order to observe their skills more closely. He just wished that his clothing blended into the crowd a bit better. He already seemed to exude an aura of evil without looking like a weirdo to these people.

Alaric Klausner Felt as though he was being watched. He tried to ignore the feeling of someone else's eyes boring into him, but after a few moments he turned to stare at whoever the hell was- woah! Then person in question was easily 8ft tall! That just wasn't natural. "Don't you know it's rude to stare?" then, under his breath "What the hell kind of steroids is he on!?" His tone was not accusational, but neither was it warm or friendly.

Alaric Klausner Had seen enough for today. Just that brief sighting of the giant had unnerved him slightly. It appeared that there were far too many things on this plane that he wasn't aware of and hadn't planned for. However, he had always been one for improvisation, and he had a few ideas as to what his next steps would be. Turning, he walked away from the celebrations and back towards the small townhouse he was renting for the time being. He just needed to take a few steps back and think his next moves through...
