Nero was told that he looked allot like his father growing up and even wears a feather in his hair like his father. But now that he's older Nero had undergone some changes after ten years he has grown much more rugged from his various exploits and years of fighting monsters. His hair is mostly brown with a fairly large white splotch inherited from his mother which often make people think he's older then he appears only to be surprised by the fact that he's just twenty one years old.

Mental Stability

|❈Habits❈| "Good Bad we all have some."
✓ Randomly swinging his arms|| "Oh no that's nothing there are times my arms will just swing it's a good thing when that happens I don't have my sword in hand. After so many years of training much like his father Nero will swing his arms as though their holding something even when their empty.
✓ Nail biting|| "I know it's a bad habit but it just happens when I get nervous." Nero developed this habit when ever he would train with his father. Now whenever he's nervous about something he will start to chew on his nails until they're nubs.
✓ Humming|| "Huh? Oh i'm humming again aren't I?" Nero hardly notices when he's doing this anymore he also doesn't know where or when he picked up his humming habit.

|❈Like❈| "I'm trying to stay calm."
♥ Books|| "I promised my mom before she died that I would read a book every day until I caught up to her in how much she read." Nero's very first book was given to him by his mom he still carries it with him and reads it when he is feeling down on himself.
♥ Training|| "It doesn't matter if you mastered all the skills in the world unless you keep training you wouldn't be able to handle it... My dad told me that" One doesn't like this stuff at first but slowly over time it grows on you and you begin to enjoy such trivial luxuries.
♥ Sweets|| "When you want something sweet, then get something sweet just keep it in moderation." Nero is one person you don't want to get in the way of when sweets are on the table he will most likely throw you out the nearest window and go on eating his snack.
♥ Swords|| "Well my dad taught me how to use a sword so it only makes sense that I would like swords."

|❈Dislikes❈| "Get those out now."
☢ Poison|| "Why would any one use a under handed tactic as to poison some one else?" Nero doesn't agree with the use of poison and will usually question any one who uses the substance.
☢ Vampires|| "Look at their teeth that's not natural I also hate the damned blood suckers."
☢ Fakes|| "When you have my family's name there are bound to be many glory seekers." Nero absolutely hates when people think if they use his family name they will become rich and famous.
☢ Tomatoes|| "The texture is not at all natural and they taste like manure." Nero has hated tomatoes ever since he was a kid mostly from getting a rotten one stuffed into his mouth forcing him to swallow and vomit it back out.

|❈Fears❈| "I hope you don't plan on causing a freak out"
† Arachnophobia|| "Let me ask you have you ever had a spider as big as your head crawl on you chest and face? No didn't think so."
† Atychiphobia|| Believe it or not the thought of failure utterly frightens Nero especially when you live where one mistake could be the cause of death
† Astraphobia|| Funny how things work when you're almost hit by a bolt of lighting.

|❈Personality❈| "I am who I am no changing."
Despite how much pain has been inflicted on Nero over the years he seems to keep his kind heart in tact. He can't stand watching others suffer and has to help despite being advised against it. He'll even go so far as to keep a kind smile on his face even when he's being mauled or being beaten one way or another though if asked he will just say no matter how much pain I endure others are suffering much more and it's my duty to show them everything will be alright in the end.

Coming from a mountain village Nero is naturally highly driven. Even looking at his posture during battle he shows he's more then able to keep pushing forward never backing down even if he knows what's waiting for him in the end. His determination has led to many people paying him for any bandit he slays or brings back with him to be beheaded.

But no matter how much he keeps pushing forward or how genuine his smiles appear on the outside if one looks close enough he is merely putting up a front to hide his own pain. The type of pain one inflict on themselves one he hopes to unchain himself from. Should some one find him alone they'll catch a rare sight the usually happy go lucky idiot who smiles even when he get's his face caved in can be seen sitting with his knees tucked into his chest staring blankly into space while muttering about how he is responsible for his own pain.

Combat Capabilities

|❈Skills❈| "Hmm? I know how to survive in the wild."
✎ ???|| A skill unique only to Nero it allows him to reverse almost any symptom related to corruption from Anti-Aether. It even prevent him from getting sick. However when he absorbs and purifies heavy amounts of Anti-Aether corruption Nero becomes unable to stand or move and depending on severity of the corruption he could be out for several days.
✎ Swordplay|| Taught by his father Nero has mastered the art of the sword to the point that he is able to communicate with the spirits of the swords he wields.
✎ Survival|| Growing up in a mountain village does gives you some advantage when it comes to survival Nero knows all types of plant life and is able to purify water on his own.

|❈Strengths❈| "I'm really only good at fighting."
☯ Combat|| Never mistake Nero as some guy who's so wimpy he can't hurt a fly with his punches as that will be the last mistake you make. Nero is very skilled in combat situations and is able to fight groups of people with out much worry.
☯ Physical Strength|| He may not look very strong but Nero is able to stop a rolling boulder by leveraging himself against a cliff wall and putting his arms out and can easily snap a support beam just by punching it. But at the same time his strength does make him some what self conscious and makes him worry that is he ever get's angry he won't be able to control himself.
☯ Corruption Immunity|| Nero's strange ability makes it impossible for him to become corrupted by the tainted land making him the best to fight against anyone or anything that becomes corrupted in that way.
☯ Linguist|| Thanks to magic Nero is capable of understanding a multitude of languages. . . There are times however he will switch to speaking a different language without knowing that it's even happening.

|❈Weakness❈| "I'm not perfect."
✠ Corruption Immunity|| As much as it's his strength it's also one of Nero's more lethal weaknesses. When ever he has to purify corruption that's strong enough to change one's physical features blood will fill his right eye temporarily blinding him it will even form cuts along his arm that act as vents to release the excess taint he is taking into his body. Then later he will run a high fever that leave him bedridden for several days.
✠ Honor|| Nero never will fight some one who's injured and needs treatment or an unarmed opponent he'd rather wait till their at full strength before confronting them though when it comes to bandit or any one who doesn't care for life all bets are off.
✠ Berserk Mode|| A state Nero enters in after he is pushed beyond his mental breaking point. When he's like this Nero's strength is doubled virtually making him much more dangerous. But this is a state of pure rage (Meaning there is no distinction between friend or foe) he's unable to feel pain and would most likely not even realize an arm is missing if it were to be severed from his body.
✠ Linguist|| While he is capable of speaking in different tongues Nero has no control of which language he will switch to, and typically will speak in the first language he hears. Only to the revert back to common after a few minutes of speaking uninterrupted.

|❈Training❈| "Taught by my dad and a close family friend."
Apart from his unknown and uncontrolled skill Nero has was taught and trained by his father and afew of the Knights who would visit every once in a while. Johnathan known to be physically stronger than Nero's father often put Nero into situations that would build up his raw physical strength up till the point Nero himself was almost as strong as a giant. Nero's father put him through the ringer before fully training Nero in swordplay. And Loki the Knight magician put her own special spell on Nero allowing him to understand the different languages spoke through out the world.

Background

|❈History❈| "Touchy subject mind if I change it?"
Nero was brought up in a small mountain village that boarded on the ocean region. Born near the end of the Ten Year Blood War he had no clue that his father was a Knight of legendary proportions. So he was able to live in utter bliss helping care for the farm, reading books with his mother and training with his father in the art of the sword. Well that was until his tenth birthday when Nero was sent to complete his coming of age trial.

While travelling to the temple he was ambushed by Dire Wolves who began chasing the frightened Nero. Running for his own life Nero found himself stuck cowering in a cave praying that he would escaped unscathed. Yet that was not to be the alpha wolf had charged into the cave forcing Nero to keep running deeper until he stopped at a dead end unable to keep his balance Nero fell. The next thing he remembers is waking up on the path the Dire Wolves chased him from only to find himself finishing the trial and returning unable to remember what happened or how he got the new scar on his chest

About a year after he finished his trial Nero was officially being treated as an adult around town and was brought on hunts to supply for winter. However on one particularly long hunt Nero was tracking a boar that was wounded by the trap he had set earlier but was able to break free finding the boar dead Nero panicked and ran home. But opposing hunters or rival villages were the least of his problem as the moment Nero got back to the village he was greeted to a horrendous sight bodies of men, women, and children were piled in the center and visible at the entrance. Knowing each nook and cranny Nero was able to get back to his house where he heard his own mother screaming.

Hiding himself in a nearby bush Nero watched as men some wearing armor while others wore hoods carried both his mother and father out, yet while his mother struggled his father seemed to be at ease using a calm voice to get her to stop. Not knowing what was happening Nero watched with horror as one of the hooded men produced a black dagger and cutting his father's throat open only to shortly have one of the men impale him on a lance and plant him on the ground. Finally Nero couldn't watch any more only seeing as they started to do the same thing to his mother before closing his eyes and plugging his ears trying to convince himself he was only have a bad dream.

Ten years later Nero has grown knowing that what he saw back then was real and that he watched the entire thing as it happened hating himself for wishing it to only be a dram, and not even attempting to do anything.
