Quzon
Physical appearance:
Hair Color: Black.
Quzon keeps his hair cut short because it is easier to maintain. On occasion, he can readily be seen sporting a large amounts of stubble on his face.
Eye Color: Green.
Eye Injury: As of Winter 517, Quzon is color blind and can only see in black and white due to the Tainted Shadows in Riverfall.
Skin Tone: Pale, slight blue. Quzon's Isur blood gives him the deathly pale appearance of someone who has never spent time in the sun. However, his Myrian side does show if one looks close enough to see the faintest hint of tanned skin trying its damnedest to grant him a smidgen of color. In contrast to his bodies pale hue, Quzon's entire left arm holds a dull black coloration that can mistakenly be confused for gray. It is a color signifying his half isur Pitrius clan heritage.
Body & racial attributes:
Quzon has a muscular, sturdy, and naturally chiseled physique from having to rely upon his physical attributes in order to survive not only the horrors of living amidst the jungle, but also from his training as a bodybuilder.
Being Half-Isur grants him a high amount of natural strength, durability, and stamina greater than that of an average human. His light green eyes also offer him improved nightvision in low light situations. Being half Myrian, his body is adapted to and allow for the ingesting of some poisonous plants and species that inhabit the Jungle region. In a pinch, a he can survive on a diet of blood for up to a week.
Tattoos:
Quzon has received several tribal Myrian tattoos over his life, all which are on his left arm. He gained his first tattoo after his Blooding Ritual which encompasses the entirety of his left arm down to the wrist. The second tattoo covers his left pectoral which he gained after his first year of mandatory service in the Taloban army. He gained his third after his second year in the army which runs down his back to his left shoulder blade. His fourth tattoo covers his right shoulder which he gained upon completing his service in the army.
More importantly, his 1st mark of Prowess from Myri takes the form of a realistic stylized blade located on his right pectoral.

- Clothing worn in threads (will update if changed):
If he should ever find himself cold or need cover from the elements, he will wear a black tilmatli styled cloak. His belt is worn only out of need to holster his weapons. It is wore loosely enough to tuck his hand-axe into it. And, While not a piece of jewelry, he wears his Chackram around his neck like a metal neck-piece.
Quzon wears Hunter's Hide when in combat, or to warm himself up. The cured hide wraps around his body mimicking the anatomy of a beast, fur and smell included, with the head of the animal serving as a helmet.
Wilderness Survival: Quzon now wears a long sleeved shirt & pants made out of Isuas when out in the wilderness.
Personality:
- Quzon has always felt out of place since his earliest memories.
He endured the stigma of being a mixed blood in not only one, but two predominantly semi-xenophobic races. The Isur with their superior elitist attitudes towards mixed bloods and the Myrians who are warmongering isolationist. Q grew up as an outcast in Taloba where he was taunted for his pale skin by his peers as if he had some type of disease. Or worse, was a Symenestra; this has left him with an intense hatred towards the spider race since he considers the name synonym with the greatest insult meaning 'weak' and 'frail'. However, that taunting gave him something to rebel against. It also made Quzon obsessed with 'power', in all facets of the word since it was what his people respected. The taunting lessened after preforming The Bloodingritual by becoming recognized as a full Myrian in the society, but the past mocking made him who is is today.
There is no mistaking that Quzon is an inherently violent person who found a way to flourish in a chaotic world by tempering his angers through a fanatic need for physical exercise because physical strength is one way to gain power. Quzon is very much a person who seeks perfection in all his goal, and will go to unheard of lengths to acquire them.
The first thing that is obvious about him is a rather looming intensity reinforced by his taciturn manners. He never says much, and what he does say he truly means. Despite his nature, Quzon is not without honor and will challenge enemies outright if a person angers him, because it would be a well earned victory.
He's not much of a joking person though his humor is increadbly dry or morbid when it is expressed. He can be a close, loyal, and unfaltering friend to those who have fought by his side. When faced with danger, Quzon's first reaction will always be to fight rather than to acknowledge 'fear'.
The language of Common is his worst spoken language, as such he has been known to speak of himself in the first and third person.
History:
Origins:
- At first glance, Banir Gemshock Pitrius and Lekwa of the Barbed Earth had both appeared to be relatively distant but, upon a more in depth look into their lives they were, in fact, a perfectly compatible yet dysfunctional couple. Even they found it difficult to believe that the two had any type of relations aside from their routine uneasiness. Their original pairing springing from the fact that Lekwa found the Isur male attractive, resulting in her insistent seduction of Banir.
Banir was an isur from the Pitrius Clan who found himself within Falyndar when the Isur caravan he was traveling with made a detour to the savage lands, rather than go immediately to Alvadas. He was a mage who devoted much of his time to the arcane study of Djed. Once he had been seduced by Lekwa; an arcane reimancy geomancer, Banir decided to stayed behind to learn what he could about the Myrians. His stay extended longer once he learned she was going to bare his child.
Once Quzon was born, Banir wished to continue his studies elsewhere. So It was agreed that Lekwa would raise and be a true parent to the child. However, Banir made it clear that Quzon would be taught the religious beliefs of Izurdin and spend some type in Sultros when he was older. He's since lived most of his young life his life in Taloba where he passed his Blooding by killing a Akila hound with the use of Earth Reimancy; which was the requirement for all members of the Barbed Earth clan who specialized in the use of the magic to defend Taloba. He then joined the Taloban Army to preform his mandatory three years of service, and staying on for an extra fourth year; 508 AV through 511 AV.
