Name: Roan Breaktide
Race: Svefra
DoB: 33rd of Summer, 488 AV
Sex: Male
Physical Description:
Nurtured by the Suvan sea and further tempered by the harsh mainland, Roan’s frame has grown to a full 6’3 and 184lbs. His sturdy frame is rapped in a tightly fit layer of powerful muscles that allow him ideal dexterity, strength, and agility for Svefran survival. Due to the many hours spent exposed to the sun and sea, Roan’s skin has been imprinted with a deep bronze shade and his hair bleached blonde. The coarse mane reaches past his shoulders, curling at the tips.
Like the rest of his kinsmen, Roan is blessed with Laviku’s eyes; deep pearls as blue as the ocean. His lean face has youthful qualities to it, which blurs people’s certainties about his age. Along his upper back leading onto his right shoulder, Roan has a pod tattoo of a mighty shark. Often, Roan wears his hair tied back and out of his face. He completes this unofficial look by wearing an assortment of colorful, unbuttoned shirts with cut-off pants. He typically relies on his leathery soles, but owns a pair of shoes should he travel inland.
Character Concept:
As genuine as the sea, Roan wears his heart on his sleeve. Confusion, sorrow, felicity, rage, etc; whatever the case, Roan doesn’t hesitate to reveal what he’s feeling. Should the urge come for tears (though this is rare), he won’t put on a macho façade, whether it be in private or public. Should something or someone aggravate Roan, he will not hesitate to take on a more violent nature (this is more common than the latter). Despite his melodramatic tendencies, Roan’s sights do not sway once he puts his eyes on a prize. These traits, along with his unorthodox intelligence, may be what draws people toward him.
Roan is a firm believer in two conflicting philosophies: 1) If one is not strong enough to hold onto his belongings he does not deserve to keep them and 2) Share resources with those in need. This inspires saint like behavior towards needy folk, yet pitiless hoarding of extraneous goods. All of this is brought on by his Svefran upbringing and accentuated by his clash with the continent.
Though he is mostly detached from the mainstream Svefran ways (he is not currently in a pod, has slightly different morals, etc), Roan is arguably more devoted to his people than any of his kin. In fact, he would say that his devotion is so great that he can not accept their current principles. Roan believes in the urgent need for one central leader for all Svefra, like the days spoken of before the Valterrian. This belief has manifested itself in a determination few could match; Roan will establish a leader, whether he needs to break all of his culture’s norms and become that leader himself. This he believes, is the only way the Svefra will be able to remain truly competitive in the future to come. Thus he embarks on a journey of compassion and deep rooted concern to establish a leader for the Svefra. He will find a suitable Lia’Tavanka…
