Drue Kry'bhri

Name: Drue Kry'bhri
Age: 56, but looks in mid-twenties
Race: Svartalfar*
Gender: Male

Appearance: Drue measures about 5'6" to 5'8" but weighs an easy 180 lbs. He is very muscular of build, but he is no musclehead. Lean and athletic is better to describe him, but more muscular than such images is more accurate. His flesh is jet black, dark as night. His head is bald and his face elliptical, but his ears come to a point, albeit a small one. His facial hair, consisting of a trimmed circle beard, is a fiery orange-red. Along his skin, a network of crimson tattoos run in a venous pattern throughout his body. His eyes are a dark orange, easily mistaken for brown at first glance, and burn with a subtle passion and intensity.

Characteristics(+): Drue is quite valorous, willing to sacrifice himself for a greater cause or to save others. He tends to stand up to injustice and make his presence known. He tries his best to preserve innocence. He is faithful, the type you can depend on no matter what you need. He gives his all to any task he sets about to do. He has a liking and a knack for music.

Characteristics(-): Surly personality is primarily his social weakness, as he has had little interaction with others apart from sparring. He does not mean to be gruff, necessarily, but he speaks the blunt truth, no matter how harsh it may be, and he does not understand tact. He tends to try to solve problems by force, and is quick to fight if there is a disagreement. He does not often smile and has little in the way of a sense of humor. He does not like animals, particularly.

Special skills: Drue is extremely agile with highly-tuned reaction speeds, well versed in unarmed combat, and can call upon the powers of fire basically at will.

Occupation: A skilled monk in his order of flame dervishes, he has since become an exile and a fugitive.

Possessions: Drue possesses a leather armour that wraps his entire body, leaving no parts uncovered, including a dark veil that covers his eyes. He carries with him a black executioner's hood, typically worn while eating. For his current story, he possesses a small pouch of money, a satchel for carrying food, and a weapon wrapped in an unknown material which looks like iridescent fish scales.

Motivation: Protect the realm of fire, and perhaps return there on day

*Other notes: Svartalfar are basically black elves for appearance, with a few exceptions. First, they are notably shorter, comparing to human height. Second, they may be bald or have facial hair, often both. Their hair typically comes in black, white, grey, or any shade from bright yellow to dark red. Third, they live deep in the fires of the earth, or, as in this story, the realm of fire. They love fire and mineral the way elves love tree and leaf. Fourth, They are typically more gruff and violent than elves, adapting a more oriental style of life (Think huns, ninjas, monks and samurais). And fifth, and most notably, Svartalfar turn to stone in sunlight. They have means of recovering from this petrification, but not natural healing from it. Thus, they tend to keep themselves fully covered in thick cloaks or, for the case of fighters, firmly and formly wrapped in thick leathers.
