Country Affiliation: Wanderer (Mid/Late Life)
Race: Magician
Tier: D
Class: Magician
Age + Birthdate: September (Age to be decided after precursor story)
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Eunuch
Personality:
During his youth, Mal was highly submissive receiving torture to drive out visible rebellious nature and to control him. As such he is only lightly spoken and prefers to talk with action rather than words in most given circumstances.
With this silence within his personality, he prefers study and research over social pursuits.
He lacks any significant moral compass, he has no issue with carving his way through anything to reach his target or objective. He focuses on completing the objective above all else and can rarely be turned away from a focus. As such torture and other brutal means do not phase him.
The most kind form of his personality is anything that revolves around his spark of interest for discovery of the unknown, unique or mysterious. To reach into the beyond. As such in new places he tends to be highly alert seeing if he can spot anything of interest that may give him new clues or ideas in lines of research and discovery.
In later life, his personality became more refined in the focus of seeking the true balance of one's inner and outer self and the surrounding world. Wishing to work within fate as a creature free of fate’s grasp.
In his general treatment of people, there is little respect rather he looks at people in terms of how useful and effective they are in their own way. A methodical, highly logical thinker leaves little room for emotion.
Likes:
Study of the Mysterious :
After spending time in his youth trying to gain knowledge through study. Mal has found great enjoyment and freedom in researching and studying the mysteries of the world and reaching into the unknown to find the discoveries that lurk within the world.
Strength/Fortitude:
After his experiences throughout his youth, Mal focused heavily on strengthening himself both mentally and physically. As such he has a huge respect for those that put effort into strengthening their fortitudes both physically and mentally and finds the activities relating to be enjoyable alongside study.
Rukh: After he gained his understanding of magic and the rukh. Mal has found himself obsessed with them and their forms. How they interact in the creation of magic as well as their other more secretive and unique features.
Dislikes:
His Own Servitude:
Mal has a significant hatred and dislike for him being in service to anyone that makes him any lesser to them. He outright refuses to be seen as lower in the chain of power and will outright refuse to take orders from others (mid/later life)
The Control of Fate (later life):
In later life, Mal came to have a distaste for the way rukh controlled fate and its weakness to manipulation from outside influence and how even if i tried to balance itself and return to its path, its ways of action were limited in nature.
Aspirations:
Freedom: (Early life)
During his early life, Mal wished for freedom from the chains that held him down. Though it took a while to achieve. This drive to break away from his chains of fate drew him down a black path.
Control of his own destiny/fate: (Mid Life)
Upon reaching his midlife, Mal sought control of his own destiny and fate seeking to break away from the true chains that bound him in place. Not the chains of humans but the chains of the rukh.
As such it was his drive to take control of his own fate and relish in its power.
Understanding and Balance of the Twin Rukh’s: (Late life)
After gaining experience and maturity, Mal/Nosani sought to understand the rukh and how it led and balanced within the world. Rather than becoming chains it became something that brought him great interest and drive to understand and maintain within the world through means that were not divined by fate itself.
Phobias/fears:
Torture (Self): Mal/Nosani fears one thing more than anything and that is his primary weakness. Suffering torture and brutality during his early initiation as a servant/slave to his master/mistress.
He is incredibly vulnerable if put under physical torture and becomes easy to break in the effort to gain information or other details. While as the grew older he tried to fortify himself, this is the primary thing that he has never been able to shake.
Face-Claim: SWTOR - Scion Model/Art
Hair Color: White/Grey
Eye Color: Blue
Height: 150cm
Weight: 57kg
Appearance:
Youth:
During his youth, Nosani was a rather frail youngster being thin and frail in nature, provided him a more effeminate look and feature, his long brown hair only adding to that appearance.
His left arm was tattooed with his clans marking.
Midlife:
As he aged his features remained rather frail and weak. As a eunuch it was also quite common to keep more of an effeminate look as such. He only grew in height, making himself appear frail and weak, this combined with a slightly malnourished diet gave him this appearance. During, this point of life Mal was shaved bald.
Alongside the coverable parts of his body being adorned with scars from enforcement and torture.
Later Life:
Upon reaching his later life, Mal rarely allowed his skin to be seen. Though he had gained some body strengthening through pursuits of fortitude after gaining his freedom, he is visibly shorter than men of his age. His common clothing consisted of short robes over other clothing and his face hidden below a hooded mask.
His true face under the mask is a scarred visage of what it once was and as such his face no longer matters but rather he is a blank slate.
Rukh Alignment: White (Black Later-life)
Special Features: N/A
History:
Born of a plains tribe, life was hard but also fulfilling though he was a rather frail youngster. Nosani had managed to survive his first winter and winters after. Surviving even his marking by the tribe with their tattoo. His tribe the Pelatani were nothing more than one of the many minor scattered moving tribes of the plains seeking survival by hunting the roaming herds of animals that moved across the massive domain.
This life was to be short-lived on one of the expedition by some of the men-folk of the tribe, they were set upon by brigands and slavers. Though the youngsters understanding of what these were would not be truly understood until later life. While most of those present were killed or gravely injured a number were wounded and/or captured before being rounded up for the slave trade into pens.
For the most part males and boys were due for the mines or other hard labour when sold as slaves. Though maybe it was down to his more frail features and long hair deep brown hair at the time, that he was passed off as something else. The Slavers at least had money in their pockets and identifying good qualities in their stock was useful, his frail features and the ability to detect the rukh made Nosani more valuable than that of a regular human. It was the sign of a magician, one that could see the rukh, while it could make him dangerous if allowed training without enforced restraint it made him more valuable.
After the early torture to encourage and enforce mannerisms and submission, he was traded over to a minor clan of the nation of Kou. An extended-family that would seek to send one of their offspring who had showed magical aptitude off to the magician’s city state of Magnostadt with a servant to assist her in her time there.
There intention had been to procure a slave/servant of female nature, thought the world of slavery was never easy. Manipulation and deception were at the forefront and as such the family had significant disappointment in receipt of a male slave rather than female. Even to a small clan spending coin on things such as this was a significant spend and with contracts solid. They had little option other than taking their frustration on their new asset.
As such, Nosani now by the name of Mal became a Eunuch. To serve his masters and mistress from a truly submissive position.
Role-Play Sample:
These creatures whatever they were, lurking in the shadows of the water below the tundra’s rim, occasionally they broke the surface a horn and small sections of possibly a tail or something along those lines would appear before diving back under into the depths, they got close to the ice wall occasionally but getting to them would be the issue, it wouldn’t be ideal to fight them on their terms.
The Hunter, crouched observing these things using a snow wall he had erected to protect himself from the sea winds, his Tundra Wolf Hide Armour with its white fur, seemed to blend into the environment itself. His crude shortbow unstrung by his side as he sat and observed whenever these creatures came.
He began his plan, surely killing one of these things would bring some very bountiful produce to trade as well as some meat and other materials that could be used to survive in this hospitable landscape.
The only problem was getting that thing to stay above the surface. He began using the snow as paper using his wolf-fang knife to draw his plan. Using one of his explosive tipped arrows.
He could use it to try to bring down part of the ice wall onto the creature as it came to the surface this should as it falls force it to come up to avoid being dragged and pinned in the depths. This would be the time to attack it when it’s stuck there.
Next step would be to release one of his favourites, a Wraith-Fang.
The idea aim for the largest section of its body that means I shouldn’t miss, next I would need to shoot off a Flash Flare, guessing these beasts prefer the darkness it should give it quite a shock giving me time to reposition and catch it in a net.
At least while it tries to get free I can fill the area’s with vital organs full of arrows hopefully the blood loss should do it in or at least prevent it from diving.
The Hunter his mask obscuring most of his face had strung his bow. A "Fuse Tip" notched as he sat near the ledge waiting for one of the creatures to come towards the more weathered side of the glacier.
The only thought was “I’ve got one shot at this, if it goes wrong I’m either dinner or wasted resources”
