Valiant Terrett??

A French assassin, who will happily work for both sides as long as he's paid.

0 · 266 views · located in America

a character in “When the Lion Wakes”, as played by Raijn

Description

Valiant stands at the impressive height of 5''9 (impressive, according to his colleagues, because he's Fench) and weighs little but not enough to be underweight. He has a slightly athletic body, and enjoys to wear suits that compliments this fact. His face is sharp, his eyes are a warm brown in difference to his almost black hair, which is always combed backwards. This actually has a meaning, according to himself, because his old work demanded it, and he still thinks it fits him. He is slightly pale, because he isn't allowed out in the sun much these days, and looks a little ill at all times. He does his best to sleep tightly, but is hardly ever allowed to because of work and old memories, and is unable to hide the weary expression that sometimes pops out to say hello.

Valiant has a small scar over his left eyebrow, and another one at the bottom of his lip. They're hardly noticeable if you're not standing close to him. He also has a tattoo that covers the right side of his back, but he has yet to show it to anyone he's not overly excited about. Hard to say why he got it in the first place, but some people wonder if it might have some kind of sentimental value to him, though that's hard to tell when most people don't even know what the tattoo is. The first thing you'll notice is probably his French accent and a smile that might indicate he knows more than what he's telling, even when he doesn't.

Some days his nose is slightly more red than usual, as he's a very easy nose-bleeder.

Personality

To most people, Valiant will seem like a kind and outgoing man, fond of chatting simply to enjoy the company of other people. However, his frends have discovered a different side to him, which is hard to ignore when you first see it. Though not exceptionally, Valiant is quite the intelligent man, and is likely to turn the conversation in his direction and play with words in order to make you spill the beans. He knows his way around words, but always remains careful when in the vicinity of people he knows to be more intelligent than himself. Either way, he's really a cosy chap to keep conversation with, though some people find his accent irritating even though it's beginning to fade.

Like anyone who's used to working with hotshot small-time criminals, Valiant finds himself patient in many situations but intolerant towards incompetence from his co-workers, though he appreciates the more intelligent and the more knowledgeable, he can't stand know-it-all's, and the border between them are unnervingly thin. He isn't the type to scream or use violence as he loses his temper, however, and much prefers to make snappy, humoured, comments concerning the other one. This is even taken as simple sarcasm and a joke at most times, which is why he seldom gets into trouble for it.

More than anything else, Valiant would tell you that he values his life. He's gone to a great lot of trouble to keep it, and claims that he's not about to just give it up unless there's a damned good reason why he should. He still considers himself a player of both sides of "the war", and if someone offers the man a greater deal, there's a very good chance he'll take it without even blinking.

So, in conclusion; he is a calm and outgoing man, slightly sarcastic in his humour and not someone you put your lives in the hands of.

Equipment

Valiant always buys the equipment he needs before the mission, and hardly ever keeps it afterwards. He does, however, keep a gun and a couple of knives hidden on his person, just in case.

History

He grew up in France along with his mother, who told him when asked that his father was in a better place. At the age of 11 he was able to meet with his father for the first time after weeks of getting on his mother's nerves, and was led to the local Asylum for their first and only meeting. The shock of understanding what sort of man Mr TerrettΓ© was gave Valiant quite the impression, especially as the man threw himself over the table in an attempt to strangle his poor, terrified, son. After this, the mother decided she would have none of this nonsense any longer, and took a 12-year-old Valiant with her to America in order to start a new life there.

However, a young French boy is bound to be held down by his accent, and Valiant found himself being picked on from the moment he peeked his head outside the door of his American household. Valiant was very afflicted by this, and had already turned into a teenage criminal by the age of 16. Spending his time doing small robberies with minor gangs and similar, he found himself having a knack for the murder division during a robbery that went slightly wrong. This was picked up by the gang's leader, who then started hiring him for the more messy jobs of a growing syndicate. This continued until he was around twenty years old, when the delusional mind of the self-proclaimed Don slowly began leading towards the downfall of his organisation. This was unacceptable for Valiant, who left and decided to start up by himself. As the gang fell, Valiant practically, though not literally, rose from the shadows and these days he makes a good penny getting hired to do certain jobs for those who are willing to pay the right price.

So begins...
