▷ The Basics ▶ AGE: 37 ▶ HEIGHT: 6' 2" ▶ VISUAL: Standing at 6' 2", Maias has a lean, slightly lanky build to him that comes from all the travel and his particular choice in weapon. His eyes are blue, and his hair is a dark, curly brown that he generally keeps short. He also has a goatee, as can be seen in his icons. Despite his profession, he keeps himself well-groomed and clean, to a point that's almost obsessive in how often he does it, considering he lives in pre-medieval times. However, he also looks . . . well, constantly ill. Pale, almost grey skin, bags under his eyes, etc. This will be explained in more detail below, but tl;dr he's kind of wavering between being undead and alive. Of note is the scarring cut across his neck, that doesn't seem as though it's healing completely. He keeps his neck wrapped in bandages, though, to save you poor lovelies from having to see such horrors. He tends towards simple clothing, inexpensive tunics in dark colors, usually black, as well as black traveling boots. His clothes are also always in their best condition. He generally has a traveling bag of sorts with him. Of note is that he looks at least ten years younger than he actually is, which is explained below. ▶ AURAL: Currently, due to the damage done to his neck and how slow it's healing, talking becomes difficult if he tries to hold conversations for a long period of time. Not that it'll stop him, of course, but his voice comes out a little raspy, and tends to go in and out. Maias has a grand way of speaking, though, punctuated with gestures and sweeps of his arm. He isn't loud, but he is attention-grabbing. He has his world's equivalent to a English accent, though of note is that he speaks far more properly than a bandit normally would be at times, especially with women, and it slips other times as well. While he doesn't particularly force himself to speak slang, he'll slide in a term or two that doesn't quite fit with his usual way of speaking. ▶ OLFACTORY: Like soap! He likes to keep clean. ▶ DEMEANOUR: Maias is something of a showman; he gestures as he speaks, makes broad gestures with his arms, and his is that sort of voice that draws in attention. He likes to speak at length and will do so unless you stop him, and while he isn't particularly forthcoming with details about himself, he'll ramble on and on to you about his group's successful campaigns and - if you happen to hint that you may not like a particular sort, he'll talk, at length, about the lives he and his have taken. He's also polite, as mentioned above, and he stands with his back straight; not out of any particular need to tower over others (he's tall by his world's human standards) but because spent the first half of his life in a noble family and it's a habit he has never tried to break. He's also the sort who is a bit touchy, routinely leaning on others or taking a lady's hand to kiss the back. Always the gentleman. Though, of note, he does tend lean against something to keep his balance, as he's still healing from dying and being brought back. That kind of wears on you.

▷ IC Permissions ▶ PHYSICAL AFFECTION: By all means! He's looking at you, ladies. ▶ PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Maias prefers to avoid violence himself without a "reason", but he can and will use lethal force if necessary. Don't let his personality fool you - he has at least a dozen daggers hidden under his clothing and won't hesitate to use them. ▶ PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: Everything about Maias is a lie. More specifically, he's a very hateful man who thinks humans are terrible, Elves are just as bad, and that the world should be rid of everything else, especially half-elves. He keeps his former nobility a secret, though it's more that he just doesn't bother with it rather than any sort of respect towards his family. He's killed hundreds of people in his lifetime, which is what earned him the nickname "Maias the Bloody", and while he doesn't do it so much nowadays, he's always thinking about it, and the creative ways he can get away with it or make someone else do it for him. ▶ MAGICAL INFORMATION: Magically, Maias is gifted with immense magical power, but he's unable to cast any of it. This is due to his father having an affair with his cousin; he's unaware of this and so is the rest of the family, and it's thought that it just skipped a generation. However, his magic gives him an ability to heal from injuries a little quicker than the average human, and is also the reason why he looks young when he's almost 40. ▶ MEDICAL INFORMATION: So, the undead thing. tl;dr Maias is both alive and dead, and it's obvious in how he looks and what happens when he's wounded. While he has healed scars and whatnot on his body, there's a slash wound on his neck that is healing, though very, very slowly. And it uh, it's a deep slash, the kind that would kill a person. Same with the back of his neck; there's a stab wound there as well that's healing just as slowly as the one across his neck. Basically, he looks as though someone did a really shitty job reviving him. ▶ OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Half-elves.

▷ OOC Permissions ▶ BACKTAGGING: Always! ▶ THREADHOPPING: Go for it! ▶ FOURTHWALLING: By all means? ▶ OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: None! ▶ ANYTHING ELSE? I will warn for anything Maias may do to break his "act" of a friendly, harmless mercenary/bandit.
