Name: Gao Keng
Race: Half-Giant
Gender: Male
Age: 50
Profession: Criminal
Description: Like members of his descent, Gao is incredibly tall compared to any Human in nature. Yet, despite his unnatural height it still pales in comparison to full giants. Still, it is of no matter since he towers over most anyone he comes across. Not only are a Giant's height passed on to him but a Giant's strength as well. With him being very muscular as well, he is perhaps the most intimidating foe one could have the misfortune of crossing. Beyond the obvious, Gao has gray hair kept at a close shave and wears black robes with a red tunic kept strapped with a very large, leather belt. The most odd feature that would go unnoticed is his eyes, which he rarely opens due to the fact he is blind.
Personality: A silent and stoic being who seems to be disconnected with everything around him. He always keeps his eyes closed which gives off the impression that he is not very attentive. This however is far from the fact as the man is more interconnected with the world around him than most ever are. He is incredibly perceptive to the point he can confidently fight as if he could see clearly. He pays deep attention to those around him, having hearing that is comparable with an animal's heightened senses. Despite being in a interaction, Gao hardly ever speaks. If he was to give an answer it is usually a nod or grunt. Despite this brutish behavior, he is quite intelligent and keeps an ever focused mind on the tasks at hand. Yet beware those he considers his enemies, he is a merciless foe with a surprisingly violent streak.
History: Not much is known about Gao Keng or his childhood. It is said that he was abandoned on the steps of a mountain monastery in a country far off to the East. There he learned the Martial Arts from the Monks who raised him to value life and all that is good. Yet his dual heritage made it difficult for the young, blind, boy from finding peace and was eventually banished once he grew up. Since then, he found it prudent to control his rage and some how did. Since then he has been traveling with a partner committing some atrocities.
Inventory/Equipment: Beyond a few scrolls and canisters of water and food, he doesn't carry much on his person.
Special Traits: Psionic: Being a Half-Giant he was born with a natural aptitude for psionic capabilities. The power of his mind is quite strong able to force things to move telekinetically or cause of blasts of psionic energy.
Martial Artist: He is highly trained in the martial arts and is a surprisingly swift warrior. Thanks to his psionic powers his fists can be made to hit even harder and stronger than normal.
True Vision- When he was born blind, it did not leave him with a handicap...on the contrary it gave him something so much more. While he may never be able to perceive things normally he can no less 'see'. What he sees is not the natural world, but instead can see the very energy of life itself. He can see through people and objects all around him. Able to sense, read, and even communicate with the world's life forces. This grants him a certain fine control over energy and boosts his Psionic powers to fantastic heights.
