Physical Description:
Xpravious stands at a mighty 6'9", and has the chiseled muscular features that any proud Akalak would have. His skin a dark and vague bluish purple tone that manages to find a way to be vibrant and an exotic pleasure for many who have sight. His proportionate head sports hair that is long and jet black, the lengths of which lead to the arc of his back. Xpravious often will wear his hair in a manageable braid or in other fashions that keep it manageable. His eyes are even darker than his skin; therefore, to peer at them is to stare into a dark dream. The Akalak's facial features are ridged like a soldier, dark and full eyebrows save for his right eyebrow that had a fine diagonal scar though the mar was not repugnant, his eyelash's dark and full, and his lips neither overly plump nor slim. His hair line is full, and to the sides of his widow's peak are nearly precise arcs with short side burns to finish it off. Xpravious has a sharp jaw line and his face nearly long if not for a sturdy round chin. He would have flawless skin if it was not for his massive scar on his right bicep.
Xpravious currently wears a basic tan tunic with some dark blue trousers. He is very simple in his clothing but keeps himself up nonetheless. Other than his normal bodily and facial features; in addition, if someone was to meet him they would notice his scars if visible, his big hands and his disciplined posture.
An Xpravious Sense of Self
Xpravious is mild mannered, it does not make sense to him to invoke any more wrath than is needed. He will laugh at a good joke, and greet with a smile most people he meets for the first time. Xpravious likes focusing on only a few matters and perfecting them, and then spends any open time practicing or working on controlling his inner person. He is calm under pressure, and has compartmentalized many things in his mind in attempts to keep stress at a minimum. Xpravious would dance with a young woman without much trouble, but would never perform for audience. He is outgoing, but characterizes himself as a calculative risk taker with friends and events of all sorts. There is no doubt that Xpravious has a healthy interest in the opposite sex and is not above making frequent passes. He does have a sarcastic side and a limit to his calm that his scars remind him of frequently.
Xpravious, has ethics that many would stereo type most Akalak warriors to have. If he gives his word he will do whatever it is he said he would. However, if any being is the enemy Xpravious shows hardly any mercy. He is not the happy warrior many people romanticize about, but rather is annoyed at needless conflict over petty matters. Xpravious is definitely a warrior and does seek challenge, but he does not have conquest aspirations. He respects people enough to give them a chance to prove themselves and will welcome most people into his city like his other brothers. Like many he does not agree with stealing, but earning a living through honest work. However, his idea of opportunism has probably caused him to walk a near fine line between these types of beliefs. He is not above being kind or being humble. Xpravious is not fanatical about any one deity, but rather contemplates what they stand for and what challenges they present.
Xpravious loves the thrill of battle almost too much, and values mercilessness to an unhealthy degree. The spiritual types annoy him and view them as thinking themselves higher than they really are. He often gets a thrill out of disappointing the followers of so called gods. Xpravious has taken up more hunting recently and has found it rewarding and enjoyable.
Alter Ego “X”
Xpravious does know of his alter personality; the personality calls itself “X” and refers to Xpravious as “Pravious” in efforts to distinguish itself. X acknowledges itself as Akalak and rarely disagrees with Xpravious on matters of battle or additional training. However, in recent times X has managed to show more of itself during battle. If it were not for the control Xpravious steadfastly seeks, X would not be above lopping off a couple of heads of his own allies while no one was looking and then laughing about it at the local Tavern.
Stranger still is that Xpravious’s name was actually Pravious, and he added X to it in order to show his independence. Inside though he knew it was a subtle compromise with X and hardly a slap at his father or a statement at independence. In frustration, Xpravious has sometimes been found swearing at himself and talking violently when confronting X. X does not view Xpravious as weak, but realizes they share the same mind, body and spirit. In recent times, X has annoyingly accepted coexistence, but Xpravious knows X will wait for his opportunities to unleash himself unabatedly. Not a good thing for anyone, X is cunning, cruel in battle, and mean spirited it is unknown what he would do in such opportunities to allies or friends. If anyone was to meet X for an extended period of time (rare at the moment) he would be characterized as a pissed off old man in a young man’s body. X has no problem using that body to inflict pain and harsh words “You Frailing hunk of wasted flesh! I should kill you just for breathing my air!” – Xpravious/X after being hurt by another hunter in a hunting accident.
History
Xpravious was brought up by his father and also partly raised by the best friend of his father “Bravlic” who was a weapons smith. His life was mostly peaceful and brought up entirely in the city of Riverfall. Often his older half brother got along better with his father, but it hardly ever bothered Xpravious as he enjoyed being with Bravlic as he forged weapons.
