Go ahead and get http://i156.photobuc...van-helsing.jpgidea into your head, hehe.

Name: Morionquetil "Morion" Toruisao.
Age: Unknown (late thirties, presumably).
Gender: Male.
Race: Human, but with an unknown (to anyone, including him) Drow ancestor several generations back.
Weapons: Gnome-designed and Dwarf-made crossbow - uses clips of thirteen bolts, which are fired semi-automatically. Primary weapon at range. Melee - a bastard (hand-and-a-half) sword forged from the metal of a fallen meteorite by a friendly Dwarven smith (the same that made Rom's axe and Morion's crossbow). Also a pair of Drow fighting knives.
Class: Bounty Hunter/Dark Paladin (explained below).
Height: 6' 6".
Weight: Two-hundred twenty pounds.
History: Born in a hamlet along the Great Highway, Morion was different from the other children. He was pale, with dark hair; and grey eyes, in contrast to the various shades of brown and blue among them. Strangely, when he hit puberty his hair turned salt-and-pepper; at seventeen, he had left the small village to see what life he could make for himself. Fighting as a sellsword to many different petty kingdoms, he was educated in battle; learning to fight with the sword, the crossbow, the pike and the hammer. He soon rose to become a minor celebrity, having won his signature blade in a bet on who would win the next day's battle - though it was indeed lost, the sword's previous owner (a fat, unliked Captain) lost both the bet and his life. At an undetermined age Morion returned to his village a seasoned veteran in the peak of his life; to find nothing but broken bones and ashes. It had been sacked by Paladins on a witch-hunt weeks before, which he found out later. Giving up the life of a mercenary, Morion turned to a more lucrative profession - that of a bounty hunter. Though, his targets were neither political nor criminal; Morion became himself a sort of Paladin, rooting out Evil wherever it lay hid - for a price. He became a great tracker and archer; as well as a masterful swordsman - dueling possessed warriors, smiting were-wolves, and grappling with wraiths and vampires teaches one that. One day he met a lone, half-dead Minotaur on the Highway; who was no other than one Romulus Hauntari. The two became fast friends; Rom preferring the company of the quiet, tall Man and the Men liking the company of a massive, loyal friend. Morion helped the Minotaur pay for his axe, which was obtained from a now-mutual friend. However, the pair went their separate ways; both being wanderers on their own errands. Now their paths are set to reunite; Fate being a coy mistress.
Alignment: Neutral - hunts Evil but isn't Good.


That alright? Sorry for the lengthy bio, but I like those kinds of things :p

This should prove...most interesting, for reasons that you already know...Especially involving a story.

Hmm, have you two been discussing plans behind my back? :p Anyway, Morion is welcome. Incidentally, it just struck me that my trenchcoat, boots, hat and hair in fact makes me look rather similar to that, only without the crossbow and the leather trousers.... I'm going to have to do something about that.
I hope I am a good enough writer that some day dwarves kill me and drink my blood for wisdom.

What, as in buy a crossbow and leather trousers? :p
Of course I don't look busy; I did it right the first time.

Or, don the ever-overdone female fantasy character style: scantily clad in armor, the better the armor, the less there is :p

If you meet me:

Have some courtesy,

Have some sympathy,

And some taste.

Use all your well-learned politesse,

Or I'll lay your soul to waste.

Yeah...Less armour obviously means more protection. Dang had a good pic with that, can't find the pic though...


@Vortigern: No, I'd never be able to do that. It'd be far too easy to tell. Anyways, I've been writing a story for almost a year now, and both Vithar and Morionquetil just happen to be characters in it.


Coincidence? I think not!

Really, no. Though, if it's alright to say, the other Morionquetil (in his story) is a bit more awesome than this one :p

I believe the theory is that armor blocks attacks...but when the enemy is sitting on the ground, drooling and jacking off, there is no need for armor.
