A soft-voiced woodsman who flows like liquid between shadows as he plies his trade of death.
David comes across as a soft-voiced, gentle woodsman because that is what he wants to project; and, at least, two of those things are true. He is very soft-voiced or doesn't speak at all, and he is indeed a woodsman, living without contact with other people for weeks at a time.
One word that is a complete antonym with his entire personality is gentle. He is uncaring and brutal in battle, and he is little better when conversing with people. Due to the fact he has gained quite a reputation he hardly needs to speak; he takes the money and kills the person.
Twin katanas: These have been constructed and maintained by some of the best weaponsmiths in the world before they came into his possession. He cares after them just as highly, as with them he achieves the majority of his overt kills.
Hira shuriken: These are fitted on a X harness over his chest. He generally uses these to wound and distract so his swords or wrist-blade can make the final blow.
Wrist-blade: Mounted on his left bracer, David only needs to flex his wrist and the spring-loaded blade extends, allowing him to make stealthy, silent kills. It must be pushed back into its sheath manually, however.
He carried round a pouch filled with money to pay for various needs, but since he tends to work in cities he does not carry round a pack or similar items.
David also owns a midnight-black horse called Shadowmere.
Although David's life hasn't been the longest it has violence enough for ten men's. He lost his parents at the young age of six where he wandered into the forest and, from there, learned how to survive.
At the slightly older age of sixteen, and after reports of people being attacked and robbed by some sort of evil forest spirit covered with leaves, he arrived at the city of Nortim. At first a thief, he quickly learned the value of eliminating certain people, and hasn't looked back.
