Personality: Poseidon is the kind of man who is very straightforward. Everything you need to know about him, as far as his personality goes, you’ll take note of within your first two or three encounters with the man. On a good day, within your first or second! The very first thing that people usually notice about the man, as far as his personality goes, is that he is a very jovial spirit. There would hardly ever be times where Poseidon isn't joking or trying to have a good time. He feels as though being serious should only be saved for times when there's no other option. He also tends to be a very care-free kind of person, thanks to that. He may or may not have an aptitude towards pulling pranks on people…
Another aspect of his personality that tends to show itself a lot is his flirtatiousness. A lot of times, the man is flirting with others without even knowing that it is what he is doing! Its a sad truth, but it is his truth nonetheless. Poseidon may only have interest in women, but his flirtatiousness extends to all. The other big personality trait that identifies Poseidon is his tendency to responding bluntly. He hasn't been taught how to be tactful, so he doesn't really put much stock into the art. He'd much rather let people know things as they are.
Likes:
- Fishing - Some of Poseidon’s most serene moments are when he is fishing. It doesn’t matter whether he is sitting ashore with a line cast, or in the ocean swimming after his prey. Fishing is his comfort.
- Drinking - There’s no greater social activity in Poseidon’s mind! Alcohol allows him and the others that he is socializing with loosen up and truly enjoy each other’s company.
- Strength - In the end, Poseidon was raised in the culture of the Imuchakk. Like the rest of his people, he admires those with great strength.
Dislikes:
- People Who can’t take a joke - Poseidon is a jokester and a prankster. Running into people who can’t take a joke, tends to end negatively for him.
- Wasteful Attitudes - Why get something if you’re just going to let it go to waste? Poseidon thinks this EVERY day. He refuses to let something go to waste and can’t stand when others do so.
- Being Underestimated - Imuchakk warriors are known for their strength. When Poseidon’s strength is underestimated, he feels as though he is being disrespected.
Aspirations:Poseidon's main goal in life, is to become strong enough to take down the Rampaging Unicorn. He has yet to be able to take down the southern monster, and it haunts him every day of his life. He has failed in defeating the beast multiple times and has made it his goal to do so. In his mind, he won't be able to develop any further as a man until he is capable of defeating the Unicorn.
Phobias/fears: Coinciding with his aspiration, Poseidon’s greatest fear is never being able to get stronger. If he can't get stronger, he can't defeat the Rampaging Unicorn. If he isn't able to defeat the Unicorn, he'll never obtain a name from his chief. If he never gets a name, then Poseidon will never be recognized as an adult or a warrior in the village. If he can not be recognized as a man nor a warrior, there will be no woman in his tribe that would even consider him a POSSIBLE husband. He refuses to be a child forever.

Appearance:Poseidon has the appearance of the stereotypical Imuchakk male. He has a monstrous, gigantic build. The best part about his frame is that he is mostly muscle.

His hair is long enough to remain wild across the majority of his head, while still being tied back into a braided ponytail that reaches his lower back.
As far as his clothing goes, he is usually shirtless. He does tend to wear arm sleeves that go from the middle of his bicep down until his wrists.

Mostly, he wears a necklace with a red jeweled pendant.

History:Poseidon was born to one of the more well known hunters and warriors in the Imuchakk tribes. When the new National Chief rose to power, Poseidon's father was asked to be one of her Sabertooth Generals. However, due to Poseidon's birth, he had to turn down the offer. His mother was one of the best at the helm of a ship in their tribe. Between the two of them, Poseidon was a man meant for the sea.
All during his childhood, Poseidon had been unusually tall. His body was one of the more impressive of his generation, which caused the majority of his tribe to believe that he was going to be the next best warriors, like his father. Poseidon, unlike the rest of the tribe, didn't consider that a main priority in his life. While the other children his age were getting ready to take on the Rampaging Unicorn, Poseidon was constantly playing. In his mind, the Unicorn wasn't a big concern to him at the time. He understood the implications of passing and failing the trial, but he felt that his childhood was the most important thing.
When he reached his teenage years, Poseidon focused more on learning how to be a man from his father. He would spend the majority of his time, following his father around, helping him with the things he had to do around the tribe, and going with him on hunting expeditions. A lot of the time, Poseidon was being taught how to fight on these expeditions. His father deciding to give him a bit more of an edge for his later years.
It wasn't long before Poseidon was old enough to go through the Imuchakk Rite of Passage. However, Poseidon put off taking the test, and instead would just be there to congratulate his friends on their successes. When he was finally about to take on the Rampaging Unicorn himself, he found that he was utterly bested by the beast. The news took the entire tribe by surprise and he was met with only silence. Then next three tries resulted in the same. On his fourth return, his father sat him down one night and questioned him about the situations. His father knew exactly what was going on, but wouldn't allow himself to accept it: he refused to believe that his son was taking the challenge so lightly!
By the end of the conversation, Poseidon was kicked out of the village by his father. Instructed not to return until he had defeated the rampaging unicorn.
Role-Play Sample:
- Sample:
- Kaveh made quick work of the chores he shirked to go and assist Tenma. The magician gathered the groceries that he promised his mother, made quick work of preparing dinner, and cleaned the house within an astounding frame of time. Kaveh sighed as he finally sat down at the table to eat, his mother across from him. The magician was about to begin eating when he remembered that he had yet to remove his cloak. He stood and walked over to the couch that served as his bed at nights and began to remove the magical item. As he did so, he also remembered an extra trinket that was in his possession. The fire magician removed the necklace from his pocket and held it in his hand for a moment. I.. I should wait until she's asleep.. He thought to himself, subduing his curiosity.
Time passed and the two had finished their dinner. Kaveh took the time to grab his cloak again and step outside of the house. He wanted to look over the pendant, but decided against it. Instead, the red magician packed some tobacco into his pipe and lit it. The day had been a rather busy one and quite tiring. Staring up at the moon, Kaveh took a few extra drags of his pipe before heading back into his home and resting for the night.
The next morning, Kaveh rose later than usual. His mother was already up, cooking and cleaning. Kaveh wanted to protest, but she silenced him with some nonsense about being pampered too much and that she was still a woman who could care for her self. Kaveh sighed and donned his cloak and picked up the strange necklaace and began to head out to his makeshift research facility. He was an honorary member of the Historical Society, but he didn't want to always be in their building. So he got help from others in constructing his own shed meant for research. Inside, he had a case full of tomes that he discovered from the Torran ruins around the desert and old manuscripts of Ra and Anubis, two deities of the people of Heliohapt.
Outside of the shed, there was a work bench seated before a desk. The desk had all kinds of tools on top of it that someone would naturally associate to archaeologists (magnifying glass, dusting brushes of various sizes, etc.). This is the first place that Kaveh went to. He set the necklace down on the table and pulled the bench a bit closer as he sat down. The first thing that he took note of was the strange shape of the snake. Its body was coiled into three figure eights. The symbol looked somewhat familiar to the man. He made a short trip into his shed and pulled out a manuscript that focused mostly on the god Ra. He could have sworn that he noticed the symbol before in the manuscript and began to thumb through the pages, looking for it.
