[Ember]

Ember Pyralis Schneider Insert Image Here (Under Construction) Basic Information Race: Zith Birthday & Age : 18; Season of Summer, Day 40, 492 AV Gender: Male Physical Description Standing at 6'4, weighing 180 lbs, he is jaunty, angular, yet muscular still. The silky fur upon his body is red, gradually turning brown, then black. The red covers the majority of his body, the brown around his wrists, the black on his joints. His hair is blood red, and kept long, though is sometimes pulled back. His eyes are reddish yellow with a few pigments of green. His wings are red and black, with green around the vessels of blood. He has a rosy, cupid's bow mouth which hides behind those lush lips flesh ripping fangs that make up every tooth. His forehead is broad and wide, his nose high and long, his cheekbones also high. He has an exotic, aristocratic look. Character Concept He is almost bohemian, taking a liking to the Zith art, especially that involving the use of body parts as the media. He is interested in the goddess Nikali, liking the idea of slaves, though sometimes he goes to far and kills his slaves on accident, or on whim. He tries to be civilized and neat, though the beast within comes out, creating catastrophe, though moreso for others than himself. He is mostly carefree. He is a nomad, going between the colony life and trying to live a "civilized" life, even attempting jobs. He wants to know more about the "Great Rending" and where exactly did his race come from, knowing they are different than other races. He searches deeply for this meaning, having a storage of books. He desires to procreate but it never quite works out. He feels his biological clock is ticking, but will not settle for just any mate, at least, one that he will be serious about. His race is naturally curious, and Ember as an individual is quite curious and likes to learn how to use new tools, and acquire things. He likes to meet new people, tiring quickly of the same faces. He will trade some of his old or less desired possessions. Character History He had an usually abusive father, yet a loving mother he did not quite take to, inheriting his father's "fiery" disposition. He has no attachment to his parents after enduring abuse. Ember soon learned his father wished his other sons had been more like him. Not quite before he could fight back, his father left the region he lived with is mother. A few years later, Ember also left, in search of a place more fitted for him, a place he hadn't explored yet. He began murdering at a young age, and experimenting with substances and women also a younger than normal age. He is something of a deviant. Sometimes, the caring gentle giant will come out, though rarely. He will take care of weaker male or female, for as long as he can tolerate the other creature, teaching and protecting them under sheilded wing, tooth and claw. He has had many slaves, owning chains, collars and more. The maid was the only one to survive the brutality, for she was spared this cruel treatment and has become more like a servant. Another slave cares for his horse, Thornbird. Desiring communication and sociable activity, he studied hard to learn the Common language, from books, journals, the captured humans and watching other more civilized races. He is known to run a small but growing brothel.

Lore * Nikali, inspired by her sensuality and desire to fulfill wants, and admires the Goddess's containing all female kind in her supposed masked shimmering visage. * Rhysol, a lust for power and leadership, Ember's darker bestial nature leans towards the God of Chaos.
