Name: Xian Ye
Age: 24
Residence: Zhongyuan
Appearance:
Xian is roughly 5'9", a fairly average height, and weighs roughly 180 lbs. He keeps his hair short, with a few bangs hanging over his eyes. The shadow of his raven hair highlights the golden eyes which stare out with indifference. Xian tends to wear only a sleeveless black shirt under his armor, with matching black pants. On his feet Xian has a pair of worn black boots. (Ignore the clothes, it's just the character appearance >.>)
Personallity: Xian is mostly apathetic, finding little in life interesting. A man of few words, Xian tends to speak quickly and precisely, trying to get his point across as simply and efficiently as possible. When Xian gives his word, He follows it even if it will lead to his death. Amoral at heart, Xian may appear to be kind-hearted but it's merely a ruse to allow him to get close enough to bury a blade in your heart. On the rare occasion where Xian finds someone he can connect with, He'll go to almost any length to help them. Loyal only to himself and the few He calls friends, Xian has no problem hiring himself out, if the price is right.
Weapon: Mace and Gauntlets.
The Gauntlets are made of iron, molded around a leather glove. It extends from just above the wrist to cover the entire hand. They're made of folded iron, capable of stopping weaker blows, and have a reasonable weight to them.
Xian's Mace is a large stone head with down-facing spikes meant to rip flesh from bone. With the shaft included, it stretches to an impressive 5'8" long and weighs roughly 50 lbs. The shaft itself is a dark green, with a small weight at the end to help counter the head's oppressive weight.
Weapon Strengths: The Gauntlets allow Xian a freedom in combat to strike out, even if his Daggers wouldn't be suitable for the moment.
The Mace allows Xian breathing room and a crushing weight. It's incredbily useful for keeping enemies at a distance, and against armored opponents.
Weapon Weaknesses: The Gauntlets are only suitable for unarmed, or close combat. Due to that, They're useless for anything other then an unarmed strike or a backhand.
The Mace has an incredible weight, with the head being carved entirely out of stone. Due to that, Xian's not as quick as He could be.
Armour: Xian where's a silk shirt under a iron chest-piece. He also wears a pair of iron gauntlets meant to protect his hands and add to any damage he might cause while striking someone unarmed. Over his right shoulder xian has an iron pauldron which covers from his neck down to just above his elbow.
History: Xian was born in the winter of 168 AD, during a particularly harsh snowstorm in a small village nearly a hundred miles from Luo Yang. Due to the weather, and the poor conditions of his families home, Xian's mother died during childbirth, leaving him with his father. As time passed his father began to spend what little money they had left after buying food on wine, and when Xian turned eight, started to beat him, blaming him for his mother's death. He called Xian a curse, a spirit sent to cause death and misery to all He encountered. Growing up with the abuse, Xian lost touch with his emotions for a time, living an autonomous life with his father. When Xian turned seventeen He'd had enough, and when his father came home drunk that night He fought back with his father, accidentally killing him when they'd started exchanging blows and throwing things at each other. Knowing that when people found out he'd be whipped by the magistrate, if He was lucky, He gathered what few belongings he had and all the money the family had together before taking off as fast as He could out of the village.
He began wandering, doing odd jobs in whatever village or town He'd stop in for a day or two, before moving on.
