Pager/etc. (if applicable): yahoo: Tuxmask007 AIM: AtreidesMuadDib MSN Messenger: use email address (Allvah is my passport ID) Character Information --------------------- -Name: Allvah Sahmsri (All-vuh Som-shree) -Age: 29 -Sex: Male -Occupation(s): Mercenary -Substitutes which Xenogears Character? (if applicable): -Birthdate: June 13 -Height: 6'2" -Weight: 200lb -Eyes (colour and shape): Purple (there's a reason for this don't worry, I'll explain below.), normal human shape. -Build: Not noticably muscular, but obviously lean and agile. -Complexion: Tanned (white) -Facial Features: Red diamond tatoo covering left eye (extending up and down from eye about an inch on each side) -Identifying Marks: Talon rune tatoo on right palm. Looks like a wing and a sword, picture available upon request. -Hair (colour and style): Silver, and I mean silver like metallic not gray. (Again, there's a reason for this, it's not just because I thought a silver-haired, purple-eyed person would be cool, though he is.) -Voice: Smooth older-sounding voice...dunno how to describe it. "Wise but not OLD." -Dress/Attire: Black bandana, dark purple tunic with black cape draped around left shoulder to back, dark belt with slip for daggar, sword sheath on back under cape with sword sticking out of top, black studded hide pants with black leather boots. His right arm is his sword arm, and his left arm sports a dark bronze gauntlet with long metal claws on the fingertips. On the center of the gauntlet is an amethyst jewel. -Jewelry (if any): Dragon Pendant clutching a large amythest, silver pocketwatch with battle scene on front. (Does anyone know the time system of xenogears?) -Weapons/Tools (if any): Bronze hilt short daggar, Long Sword with silver hilt in the shape of an Angel's wings and a clear diamond blade, Magic amythest gem with unknown powers, small wooden flute. -Armour (if any): The gauntlet described above. -Personality: Tends to be silent, though is obviously looking for one to confide in. Will do anything for money, and seems to be searching to answers for unknown questions. -Background and History: An outcast of the Cult Et Machinis Nore, a religious group who worships the goddess Jhar, a manifestation of electricity/machinery. He realized that the cult was merely a creation of evil and would eventually destroy itself if not the world, and left to pursue a better life. All who join the cult must drink a poison known as Mystika and only those with "spirits pure enough" will survive. The effects of drinking the poison (which contains several minerals from the mountains as well as the blood of dragons) is a transmutation of the blood to an almost pure replacement of hemoglobin with an uncrystalized amythest corrundum. This causes the blood to become purple, and the eyes as well. It also causes the hair to gray out and take on a metallic texture almost like strands of silver. -Birthplace: Khiskal Valley, north of Elru. -Mother: Jahille Sahmsri, a priestess of the Et Machinis Nore. -Father: Unknown. When asked, his mother refuses to talk. From a bit of research, Allvah believes his mother was raped by one of the cult leaders. -Siblings: Adopted younger sister, Kiara. -Mate: Was married to Elira Vazin while a member of the cult. They attempted to escape together and Vazin was killed my mage guards. Allvah has sworn revenge on the cult, but seems to have become to involved in mercenary activities over the years. -Children: Impregnated Vazin once, but she was killed before the child was born. Allvah believes that the child may have been delivered still by the cult shaman, and possibly is a member of the cult. (NOTE TO ARCANA: I basically plan to have him meet his daughter later and she will be an EMN Blademaiden warrioress, who is obviously determined to kill him.) -Other relations: None -Affiliation: Mercenary for hire. -Secondary Skills: Excellent swordsman and gear pilot. Survival expert. -Abilities/Disabilities (in addition to Ether): Seems to have an affinity for working with and/or building machines. Also, sometimes has problems with right leg, which was shot in his escape from the cult. -Hobbies: Tuning his gear, playing the flute. -Current residence: Nomadic. -Current Life Conflicts: Seeks to avenge the death of Vazin and find the truth about her child. -Deathblows (name and function): (NOTE TO ARCANA: I have a complete list of deathblows and ether for my character which I will also send with this email.) [Arcana's note: I recommend leaving the Deathblows section blank when applying.] -Other notes: -Gear name: Argetlahm (yes, Wild Arms fans, I named it after the Guardian Blade) -Gear model: AR0781 -Height: 12.8 Sharls (I think this is the right height for an average gear, somebody help me here.) -Weight: ???? Kahnns (What's a good weight...I dunno) -Gear description: Caped Purple/Black Gear with silver headpiece, looks roughly like a robot version of Allvah himself. -Class: Ether Sword attacker. -Primary function: Ether Swords. (Combines magic arine with sword blade) -Weapon(s): Dragon's tooth. (Huge long sword) -Abilities/Disabilities: (I suppose I put special functions here) Shadow Crisis: Summons dark dragon. -How your character acquired the gear: Ok, this sounds extreme but yes he BUILT the gear. After escaping the cult he swore his revenge and in a mad frenzy (like he was possessed) he raided an ethos facility and stole equipment and a land barge to carry it with. He dissapeared into the mountains and didn't come back for months. Finally, he emerged with the gear Argetlahm. He currently is nomadic, with a shady existence, using the name "Quarix" (Karicks) publicly or when doing business. The reason for this is that he is being pursued by the Ethos in response to his raid of the supply facility.
