Description
Age: 29
Personality: Cool and collected, Orion is a generally happy man.
Goals: Seeks to master what his people call the Grey-Walk, a mind-set that allows them to become indomitable fighters resisting all magics to a greater degree than the Serpentfolk (what his clan calls themselves, having forgotten their true name) already do. Yearns to quest the land for artifacts and magical weapons to make him stronger, so he can one day gather and build a nation of his people who remain scattered across the wastes.
Strengths: Resistant (not immune) to all magics. Intensive training with a bow, axe or spear. Rather swift. Boosted natural healing abilities.
Weaknesses: Resistant (again, not immune) to magical healing. Currently severely ill with Moonsickness, similar to our Anemia, only deadly with no treatment except time and excessive exposure to sunlight. Incapability of using any magic except Weapon Fusion, a spell all of his people are born capable of using.
Weapons: Serpentyne Spear- A flaming spear that never extinguishes, except at the owner's will. Made of a Mithril-titanium alloy found in the Wastes at his mother's forge.
6 Poisoned bone throwing knives- Tipped with God Nectar, a poison so deadly it can stop a dragon's heart in a minute. Reserved currently for his brothers.
Serpent's Kiss: A bow given to him by his 'father', Tanner, while he was with him, it is said he who can draw it will never miss. Incapable of using currently.
Longbow: A standard longbow.
Exodus: A long handled axe with a blade on the opposing end of the shaft. Elementally charged with Ice and Lightning magic.
Artifacts of magical power:
Fang of Leviathan: The tooth of the Serpent God, grants the wearer the ability to travel longer distances than he usually would without fatigue.
Claw of Behemoth: The claw of the Beast God, grants the wearer increased strength and resistance to disease and sickness.
Sigil of Leviathan: A brand on his left shoulder given by the Serpent God, selecting him as his chosen champion and granting him increased magical resistance.
Bio: Born to the last chosen of Leviathan, Orion seemed destined to become the next Chief of the Serpentfolk after his Mother, especially after being chosen by Leviathan himself. The fates would not have it however, as the Serpentfolk were attacked in the night by bandits when he was a boy, and Orion was taken from his kin. Living with the 'bandits' for the rest of his childhood, he became a talented warrior, though incapable of all the magics the rest of the group could do. But Tanner, his guardian and kidnapper, saw something in Orion the other's did not. He spent day and night training his apprentice, until one day Orion pulsed with magical power, and the two blades he had been holding came together before him, creating a staff with a blade of icy steel on one end, and an axe shimmering with lightning on the other. Realizing what he had done, Tanner called the rest of the group, who could not believe the young man's ability. They then gave him a horse and rode with him north, returning him to where he had came from. But the life of a nomad was not easy for a warrior who was used to Order. He left again, soon after meeting his family and receiving his mother's blessing, to go on a quest to acquire more power.
