Though on the leaner side, Retsihn is very well fit and muscled. Though not very noticeable, a number of scars are scattered around his upper body, save the face and neck. Retsihn often sports a charcoal trench coat over a black tutleneck, especially when in combat. His strangely white hair comes down to his chin, and his unsettling red eyes are as piercing as the sharpest dagger.

Chivalrous | Staid | Loyal | Wistful
A strong believer in chivalry, it only makes sense that Retsihn follows these rules. Backstabbing and other dirty tricks or tactics are out of the question, and Retsihn expects the same from those under his command. During the duels, Retsihn is known for, the general always fights fair and follows any predetermined rules. If his adversary breaches the agreement however, he will not hesitate to retaliate. Due to his chivalrous nature, Retsihn finds respect from both sides. For the most part, Retsihn is sedate and isn't excessive in speech or display. He prefers to stick to the tried and true rather than trying new things. The second most prominent trait of the Gravity bender is that he is insanely loyal to the Supreme Faceless One and revers the masked ruler. Retsihn's hatred for traitors on both sides stems from his intense loyalty to his own allegiance. Even the mention of treason-like acts by subordinates and allies sparks Retsihn. Compromising his own morals is something Retsihn has become accustomed to in order to remain obedient to the Faceless One, and he won't mind giving up his life to abide the Faceless One's wishes. Despite his loyalty to the Faceless One, Retsihn becomes wistful when thinking of the past. He has many regrets despite believing he made the best possible choices.

Chivalry: Retsihn sees himself as one of the few in the ranks of the Faceless One who practices chivalry and instantly gives good vibes towards an ally who shares this trait.
Respect: A sense of respect towards one another is what keeps a body of people stable. Without respect, abuse and anarchy arise.
Rules: Without rules, people tend to run wild. This is not good. People need rules, and rules must be reinforced. Due to this belief, Retsihn never breaks the rules he has written for himself.
Worthy Adversaries: Due to his chivalrous traits, Retsihn gives respect to worthy adversaries, and treats them well unless instructed otherwise by his Superior.
D I S L I K E S
Treachery: Retsihn finds no respect for the treacherous. In fact, he hates them and believes they should be punished by execution.
Mercenaries: Mercenaries are just pathetic people looking for money. They don't care about allegiances and fight for whoever has the money.
Disobedience: Disobedience is something Retsihn finds intolerable in his subordinates and punishes them severely for any display.
Total War: Retsihn sees war as something between soldiers. Including civilians and others in a war is against Retsihn's ideals, but he will carry out the Faceless One's orders nonetheless.
Q U I R K S
Smoking: No one's quite sure when he began, but it doesn't look like he'll stop any time soon.
Duels: Perhaps what Retsihn is most known for. He is known to challenge the enemy commander to a duel. There has been complaints by other generals about this, but Retsihn has never lost yet.
Rare Use of Bending: Whether it's personal preference or because it drains him, Retsihn defaults to armed/unarmed combat. He will often use his bending abilities lightly or moderately, usually to compliment his combat, but the primary use of bending to combat enemies is a rarity.
Austerity: Being strict is ideal to keep himself and his troops in tip top shape. Some other generals may tend to be more relaxed with their soldiers, but that is not so with Retsihn. As a result, though his troops are young, Retsihn has one of the most disciplined and spirited soldiers of the Faceless forces.
S K I L L S
Gravity Bending: Well...he does have the tittle of the GRAVITY BENDING general. Anyways, Retsihn is very skilled as a gravity bender, and when actually putting effort, his power over gravity is a force to be reckoned with.
Gravity integrated Fighting Style: Since he doesn't use solely gravity bending to combat adverseries, Retsihn created his own fighting style to seamlessly integrate his ability to bend gravity to benefit close quarters combat. One example is to decrease gravity specifically on his fist when executing an uppercut and strengthening gravity of the enemy's jaw simultaneously. If the enemy happens to throw something, Retsihn can either greatly increase, or decrease gravity around him so the object either lands on the ground or flies up into the air.
Master of Many Weapons: Retsihn trains with a variety of weapons and is familiar with most that are found on the battlefield. Though he can make acceptable use of almost any military weapon, Retsihn is better with some than others. His favorite seem to be dual weapons such as knives and swords.
Ambidextrous: The reason why many believe that Retsihn favors dual weapons. Being able to use either hand as well as the other, when handed dual weapons, he becomes a dangerous force.

Retsihn doesn't remember his parents. He believes that they must have died while he was still young, but his tribe of nomads took good care of him nonetheless. With the onslaught of the faceless ones, Retsihn's tribe was very careful. Always scoping out the best course of travel. However, on day, the inevitable happened, and the tribe was cornered by an unknowing group of the faceless. To lead them away from his tribe's position, Retsihn pointed out a hidden village of earthbenders, posing as a lost person from far away. After displaying exceptional hand to hand combat prowess against the earthbending tribe, Retsihn found favor in the eyes of a young officer in the ranks of the Faceless. Even after finding out that Retsihn was an airbender, the young officer covered the fact saying his student was a very quick learner. The boys ability to airbend came as a surprise due to the fact that Retsihn had never used it in the officer's presence, but rather told his teacher. The transition to gravity bending was rather smooth, and Retsign soon became a very powerful bender of gravity. Somehow, word got out that Retsihn was an airbender and that the young officer who took him in was hiding the fact. But Retsihn was given a chance to prove loyalty to the Faceless. Being handed a sword, Retsihn was intructed to execute his former teacher, the young officer of the Faceless. As the eyes of the two met, the officer nodded and said "You will be a great asset to the Faceless." "Long live the Supreme One. His word is law." They both chanted before Retsihn swung the sword, beheading the officer. After the incident, Retsihn used every day as an opportunity to prove his loyalty to the Faceless One. Compromising his own morals became a regular instance to keep to his most important rule. Obey the Supreme Faceless One. Now one of, if not the most loyal General to the Supreme Faceless One, Retsihn carries out his wishes without question. Even to his own troops, the gravity bending general always stresses obedience to the Supreme Faceless One, and how the Faceless One's words overrule any laws or past orders.
