Taros

[Taros]

Taros Overview: Race: Kelvic (Red Fox) Birthday & Age: Spring 511 AV (2 Years Old) Gender: Male Physical Description: Taros is tall and thin, measuring 6"1 tall and weighing 170 lbs. He's slightly pale, which accents his light red hair and brown eyes. Many people mistake him for a scholar on first sight, which couldn't be farther from the truth. Running constantly, Taros is extremely agile and wiry, something many people underestimate about him. In his Kelvic form, Taros is a red fox with brown eyes, a very light orange coat, and very short whiskers thanks to constant trimming by his bondmate. Character Concept: Undeniably mischievous, Taros has a knack for biting off more than he can chew. Often juggling work, play, and survival, he inefficiently combines all three, never being able to focus on one task alone for more than a few dozen minutes. He often plays pranks on his bondmate as well as his friends, delighting in their surprised reactions, almost feeding off of the attention alone. An animal at heart, Taros loves the thrill of the hunt, often assisting his master in flushing out wild animals, such as boar. Confident in his abilities, Taros often overestimates his strength, which gets him into trouble either in the wild or in Syliras. Recently his master Maximilian Walsh has instilled some patience into him, and he in turn has rubbed off on his master, making Maximilian somewhat more carefree and open to strangers. Together, they are greater than the sum of their parts. Character History: Taros was born in a litter of four, in a farm near Syliras. He never got to know his parents, being adopted at birth by Maximilian, and the two have been living together ever since. He went back when he turned 1 to visit his parents, only to find they had been bought as breeding stock by a wealthy merchant prince. All Taros knows is that his father was a philterer, and left behind a journal, empty save for a page addressed to him. Unfortunately, the page was mostly damaged, a paragraph explaining his origins being the only legible part. The breeder was kind enough to let him have it as a reminder of the parents he never met. He's holding out on the dream that one day he'll find his parents, but for now, he's trying to support himself and his master, so that they can make a name for themselves in the grime known as Syliras. Max taught him how to help in hunts, so that they could make a living for themselves as well as supply themselves with food. Always the troublemaker, Taros learned Voiding from books he managed to find, beg, borrow, steal, or purchase. The training drained him of nearly all his funds, and so Taros was forced to sell his apartment, pawning everything he owned so he could make a future for himself. Desperate to climb the social ladder of Syliras, Taros has invested every copper miza to his name in improving himself, be it through hiring skill trainers, buying books, or getting better clothes to make him appear wealthier. Still extremely young, Taros is forging the friendships and alliances that will last a lifetime, making his own history as he travels.
