Van

(( Alright! Lets hope this works! ><!)

Name: William Van'Hienkel (Commonly known as Van)

Nickname: Van Third Eye

Age: 27

Race: Human:


Background: Born from the village of Arkin, from which originated several bloody legacies, the arch of Van's life had long been stained with blood, even at the early stages of his growth. His father taught him the wisdom to be the ruthless, forcing him to wield a scythe not for his age at the time when he was helping the crops. At one point, the four year old slipped and fell with his face hitting the side of the blade, producing a scar that had not been attended to save moments later. Having surmounted traditions, the villagers would deem him a competent fighter even at the most premature of stages at holding a sword. But his life amidst this form of community was short lived, after he was long banished from the village, days before his seventh year. While the chain of events are yet to be unearthed, it is clearly linked to the omen Van was seen carrying from time to time. The crimson eyed sword furiyen. a sword that had outlasted the pages of history, its origins untraceable. Its powers arcane, the life it hosts – unexplainable.. Van's personal principles are solely based on the arts of survival, and his wants take him no further. He never wanted any elevation, any rise or climb to a social status, merely the life of any man. But ever since his meeting with the prized blade, the drifter becomes entangled in a chain of snaring events that urges him to follow a path to a destiny he never thought waiting. In the blood stained side of the world, Van finds himself heralded as the Barbarian Prince, dubbed only to those who have survived the most ruthless of perils. Rumor has it that the survivor had walked an entire day, impaled with a spear.


While trying best to contain himself from unwanted attention, Van eventually grows to accept to what the world acknowledges him as. Furiyen, consecutively compels him to believe that he is destined for something. Slowly, the man with the High Landish accent grows to accept this. In his blind quest, Furiyen speaks of scattered pieces of armor dubbed as the Bones of Magnus

At present, Van supports his financial needs with bounties, gambles and sometimes trades. Unaware of his selective demeanors till later then word arrived, he slowly discovers that he has made a reputation for successful hunts so far. Another burden . . .


Physical Features: The physical features of Van had mildly bleached after acquiring Furiyen. His complexion turned brighter, eyes reddened and crimson highlights streaked across the back of his Raven Black Hair, though he still remains human. The change of complexion helped to hide his facial scar, but it will inevitable appear as a white streak under clear sunlight or other forms of light.He is six foot tall, somewhat broad shouldered with stiff muscles. (Not very muscular, though). His clothing often consists of dark wearing, often a cape draping over black soft leather.


Details in Concerns of Power: While still unearthing Furiyen's secrets, Van has uncovered that the blade often responds to his instincts. It is capable of calling utilizing different elements, some forms of dispelling magic and sometime repelling them. It has the power to amplify and negate, but its secrets stretches far beyond then Van could hope to expect. He still cannnot explain why or what does it mean when the shadows occasionally ripple when he glides the point of the blade across them. All the same however, such forbidden truths and powers, even if unearthed, may lead to dire consequences.

Personality and Traits: Tends to stand out in the midst of the crowd, especially with those crimson highlights across his hair and the red eyes. His silence can sometimes be a charm of its own. Quick witted and persistent.
