Overall Appearance - Kept lean and devoid of excess fat from poor affairs and much time spent traveling, he possesses a lithe but refined muscular build, as his focus on defending himself isn't wholly dependent on melee. His face is angled with prominent, aquiline features that give him a ruggedly noble - if haughty - appearance.
Character Concept
- Danovar is a conflicted person. He reveres the deities but trusts them little, regarding them with something more like awe, fear, and respect more-so than worship. He's more inclined to peace, but doesn't deny his own violent tendencies. He's a mild human supremacist, but shows no discrimination towards human sub races. However, some races, such as the Kelvic or Akvatari, fascinate him.
He is also a rational thinker. Logic and reason are his main tools, and he isn't usually given to idle fancy or frivolity. He won't deign to do anything he deems too trivial, such as dancing or engaging in drinking matches (which he finds is amongst the most irksome things one can do). To contradict that, he is a regrettable romantic, given to easy attraction and fast affection. He desires power and works for it, but not in the usual perspective. His view of power is the ability to impose his will over another, however possible.
Though naturally introverted and speculative, he isn't without proper social graces. He attempts to appear cultured and charming, and varies in success. He does consider himself rather more sophisticated than most, but not to the degree of the posh scholars or stately lords, whom he also has an irksome disposition toward.
Character History
- Pre-Creation - Danovar was born within the labyrinth fortress of Syliras, simultaneously ending his mother's life and leaving him with only his cold, stoic father. This upbringing had it's effects, positive or no, on his decisions and personality. His father was a prudent man, and frowned upon the gods for their unruly emotion, for he prided modesty and self-control over all other virtues. Being a Knight of Syliras, he insured education both mentally and physically for his son, tutoring him personally on how to use a sword, as money was thin enough with the requirements of daily life and his payed education.
In this way, he grew into his teenage years with an intellectual mind and healthy physique. On his own, he developed a keen interest in magic - Personal Magic most of all. His father was unaware of this for a time, and was extremely unhappy when Danovar asked to be tutored in magic. The reason for his wife's death, Danovar's father believed, was that she had used too much magic, overgiving and becoming too weak to survive childbirth. This gave him a dual dislike for both his son, and magic in general.
At the price of his father's love, he took what money he had collected in his short life and traveled about, searching shops for books on magic and searching out freelance teachers to sate his thirst for magic. He learned, and overgave himself on more than one occasion, damaging his short term memory slightly and making him severely ill at one overexertion. He continued thus, and eventually fell into scouting ancient ruins and the like for artifacts to sell for currency, familiarizing himself with the land and learning to live off it for short periods of time. In this time, he also came into contact with roaming desert tribes and varying races, expanding his cultural knowledge. He stayed with a caravan of Benshira, learning their language to a familiar degree. As well, he also found himself traveling with an Akalak, and grew accustomed to his language as he attempted to teach him in order for the two to communicate better (as the Akalak was not terribly proficient in common).
For now, he continues his business of scavenging and studying, still looking for a new way of life and better means of supporting himself.
