Vincent Blackwell

Portrait

Description
Apparent race: Human Apparent age: Mid-thirties Height: 5'8" Build: Honed, lean and athletic Hair: Short cropped, coarse, dark taupe, nearly black Face: Angular, rugged features; thick, days-old rough stubble Eyes: Dark auburn, severe brow Voice: Quiet, rich Markings: - A cloud of inky tendrils wreathed in murky hues of deep ocean blues and near-blacks lined with suckers encircle his left arm starting at the elbow in an intricate tattoo, leading down to writhing points coiling around his wrist and the back of his hand. A darker, inky roughly oval blob that might be the likely kraken's head surround his elbow, serving as the root of the thick tangle of tentacles. - His upper body, flank and abdomen bears various thin scars, as though from a blade slid through, of varying age, most of which seem distinctly dagger-sized. A particularly pronounced one, healed over somewhat poorly, rests where his left kidney would be. Of fairly average height and build and with a tendency to dress in an inconspicuous manner befitting his common haunts and the surrounding crowd, little would serve to draw a casual eye this man's way. Closer inspection or eyes accustomed to the more unsavory corners of the world might begin to suspect the man's outwardly muted presence is a front crafted by design. The more wary onlooker might be drawn first to ever-so-subtle bulges of hidden weaponry upon his person in strategic locations - lithe blades meant to offer a nasty surprise to any sudden aggressor. His measured, effortless movements and mannerism further set him apart from what might appear at a glance to be a common thug. The exact nature of his origin remains unclear, however, from mere inspection. The more inquisitive sort, however, might prefer to take note of his rugged, rogueish demeanor, a carefree attitude cloaking a jaded soul reflected in the depths of his dark auburn eyes. Prominent, bruised rings around those eyes suggest the man is not quite the inconspicuous traveler he seems - and while likely intimately familiar with the urban cesspits of the world, there is a hollow void staring back from those eyes unto one whose gaze lingers too long hinting at far more tenebrous secrets held in the veiled recesses of his mind, haunting him to this day. Further irregularities abound upon closer inspection, in the form of a curious talisman of dark iron bearing an odd rune, perhaps occult in nature, that never leaves his neck. He can often be seen rubbing it absent-mindedly when idle or immersed in thought, suggesting its import. * * * * Rumors and Common Knowledge around the Sinifer Slums: - A man matching his description known by the name of "Blake", according to locals of the Slums and frequent residents of the inn and tavern known as "The Mill", manages the place. - Is known to speak in a thick accent frequent visitors to the more unsavory corners of the notoriously corrupt city of Westgate may recognize, though it seems to have been bastardized and intermingled with local street colloquialism in the time since, suggesting he's relocated years back. //////////////// [When it comes to lights, I prefer to let the course of roleplay dictate what the character will or will not do, and the character will react in accordance with his own preferences and history.
