Name: Tatsuo Masanori
“Yep. My old man told me once that my name was said to be associated to those beasts of legend, of winged beasts with horns who breathe fire.”
Age: 24
”Ah, it’s been a few years ever since that happened.”
Gender: Male
“Haha. That’s funny. Are you playing a joke? If I punch you, then it’s a joke okay?”
Faction: Remnants
“Huh…I’d want to live my remaining life with my remaining limbs.”
Appearance: “Yeah, wondering about this arm?” Tatsuo wears a black, sleeveless, collared shirt. He wears a black gauntlet on the right arm while his left arm is completely artificial, as a result of an accident in the past. He has black hair with a spot of white on the right side, and sharp orange eyes. He stands at six feet flat. Red straps and buckles hold a metal shin-guard to his right leg, and red shoes with some armor on them. Face Claim: Raven (Reckless Fist) from Elsword.
Personality: “…That was a perfectly good blade you stained…” Tatsuo is a stern and serious man. However, beyond the stern façade he puts up, he grows to be rather emotional to extreme levels- people have claimed that he sent someone flying through the town because of trying to steal from his workshop.
However, he does become kind from time to time. It’s possible to catch him in a good mood- just be careful not to strike any nerves.
History: “It’s been a few years since then…heh.” Tatsuo was born in the 51st year of the Lawless Period. In his youth, his father used to be a blacksmith- he always had been fascinated with the swords his father created for Knights. He used to watch his father as he worked, and swore to himself that one day he would be the one wielding the swords he admired every day. Because of this, Tatsuo pursued knighthood at first at the age of 14.
By the time he was knighted, he was already 18. He had served in the Knights of Lucrezia for another 4 years, until a sudden ambush from the Spectrals caused him to lose his entire left arm. Because of the injury, he asked the help of other blacksmiths to help him forge a new, artificial arm.
The fatal injury, however, left a trauma on Tatsuo. He soon retired from knighthood at the age of 22, saying that he’d rather live the remaining life for him with his remaining limbs. Nowadays, he is a blacksmith who forges and repairs weapons for Knights.
Equipment/Abilities: Tatsuo has a skill for forging and repairing weapons, and boasts some skill in swordsmanship due to his time as a Knight of Lucrezia. However, Tatsuo seems to prefer to stay out of battlefields as of the moment- although he does agree to becoming a sparring partner for someone every once and a while.
Patchwork Armor – Tatsuo took only some parts from his Knight armor, including the armored shoes, gauntlet, and shin-guard.
Overbreak – A nickname he gave to his artificial left arm. The Overbreak is a black and orange claw, capable of lifting weapons that are usually wielded with two hands, like claymore blades and pole axes.
Random Swords – In the rare events that someone ever tries to steal from his workshop- or he has to gather new ores and materials for his forge-, Tatsuo has a habit of taking along a random sword that he crafted along with him. Aside from the Overbreak, he needs to at least have a weapon on him.
Smithing Tools – Tatsuo’s handy tools for forging weapons. Including his hammer, and other ores.
Magic (If you know any):
Pyrokinesis – Tatsuo can control fire, but only to small degrees. Within his small amount of magical training as a squire, he had learned, but mostly, he only uses his control over fire to help in the forge.
