Description

Image

Name: Darin Nieves
Age: Twenty-nine
Race: Human (Jade Dragoon)
Place of Birth: Gloriano

Description: After two years of wandering aimlessly through the wilds, Darin rarely looks presentable or kept. At a height of six foot, and with a lithe, muscular frame his disheveled look instantly sets him out as the military type. Usually unshaven, and with a battle-hardened face, Darin has allowed his dark hair to reach a length of a couple of inches. Often cut with a dagger, his hair falls in uneven and jagged edges and is often asymmetrical. His most distinguishing features are his eyes; though they have grown colder over his life, their luxurious emerald glow has often been a source of charm. Darin, predictably, is covered in scars from his time in the military and the wilds. Fortunately for him, he only has a minor scar on his face, in the form of a small inch-long white scar beneath his left eye.

Skills / Strengths:
- Archer: As a soldier, Darin was recognised from his prowess as an Archer - he is truly remarkable.
- Swordsman: Though he only began learning as a soldier, his skills with a short blade are impressive.
- Hunter/Survivalist: Having hunted to survive almost all his life, the skills he has picked up are invaluable.
- Experience: Perhaps his greatest asset is experience. Living in Glorian, becoming a soldier, and traveling to every corner of the known world have bestowed upon him a knowledge and confidence that often makes the difference in a sticky situation. His geographic knowledge of many regions is notable.

Personality

Personality: Darin is something of a loner; rarely does he take solace in the company of others, and rarely does he trust anyone but himself. Though he has no particular disdain for others, he simply will not place himself in a situation that he may live to regret. He is polite, even occasionally conversational - but never a friend or ally. Though he craves peace and stability, a life of regrettable sights and actions have killed his hopes of ever having this.

Equipment

Weapons:
- Recurve Bow(and arrows): Hand-carved personally by Darin from a dark hard-wood located in the Southern regions, the bow measures at 40" and is a light-weight variation of the long bow. The entire bow is varnished, and ornately carved with various pictorial decorations. Each end of the bow has a darkened metal tip, which can be used as a spear-like weapon. The grip is made from sanded leather, allowing for both grip and comfort.
- Short Sword: A steel short-sword with a straight blade, and cloth wrapped handle including hand-guard and drip points. The blade is a standard issue military sword given to Officer's in the Mile Seaseau army, and measures 19" including grip.
- Armour: Aside from his usual comfortable a versatile clothing, and hooded cloak Darin wears little armor. He wears a soft leather breast-plate, and steel arm braces alongside leather pads to protect the insides of his arms while using his bow.

History

Bio:
- Darin was born in the province of Gloriano, deep in the icy Northern regions. His family consisted of his parents and a younger sister, whom were part of a small village.
- He had a traditional upbringing within the community, and when he 'came of age' (at eighteen) was encouraged to leave his village to find his own family. He left behind his parents and sister in the process. His parents would die before his return, leaving only his sister.
- After a short travel, Darin found himself enlisted within the army of Mile Seaseau as the war began, at the age of nineteen. He spent seven years in the military, as an archer. During this long stint he became a respected officer and a known name among many for his archery talents, and controversial tactics.
- Disillusioned with what he had become, Darin deserted from the army at the age of twenty-six. As a deserter, he was forced to leave the Mile Seaseau region for fear of persecution. For the past three years he has become something of a wanderer, with no home and few possessions to his name.
