[Tyr Zalo Hawk]: 712.Characters.Other.Vrith

Name: Vrith Falken
Age: 357
Race: Vampire
History: After a very brief period of childhood, all of which he spent as a servant to a particularily powerful vampire, Vrith took up the habit of solving his problems in his own ways. Although the man he had served hadn't been evil, or particularily cruel, he had a profound effect on the rest of Vrith's life. The one thing that truly lasted was a phrase said only to the child on the man's deathbed: "If you can not stand on your own. Then your legs should be given to someone who will use them." If there was ever a more influential quote, it was lost to this young vampire as he watched his master fade away.
Since then, Vrith has spent his time learning every possible way to fulfill his goals. He taught himself how to fight in a way that no one else knew, learned the intricacies of diplomacy with amazing speed and rose to a position of power which gave him exemption from the eyes of many, allowing him to work on his goals in relative peace. Nothing has stood in his way without being cut down, but, more recently, the way things are working in the Senate bothers Vrith. He plans to do something about it, too.
Description: Tall, powerful and dangerous are all the immediate words that come to mind when looking at someone like Vrith. His spiked, off-white hair perfectly accents his deep, threatening golden eyes and tanned skin. More of than not, Vrith wears loose, dark brown pants and a thin, yet extremely durable and 'winged', white vest with golden lining. Each arm is covered in a 'sleeve' that protects the arm, but his left is much more armored since he often uses that arm to defend with his right is busy weilding Sukrye. Vrith also wears specially designed and fitted black shoes that decrease the added pressure on his feet caused by the Great Blade that he carries with him at all times.

Personality: While Vrith may not exactly be America's dream date, he is quite the charming fellow. He's naturally good at figuring out what other people want and are thinking about, giving him the advantage when it comes to discussions. Reading people and reacting accordingly to get what he wants is just something that Vrith loves doing. Kind, to a point, and calm in nearly any situation, he always seems to control any situation he gets put in. Occasionally, he has been known to be a bit of a 'flirt' or 'tease', but only because he enjoys making a girl smile.
Weapons: A very large Great Blade named 'Sukrye.' The blade was crafted specifically for Vrith's unique fighting style over 200 years ago by an already ancient swordsmith. Every inch of the sword is coated in a small layer of mithril, making the heavy blade extremely effective against dark monsters, and just about everything else that moves. It's hilt is specially shaped too. Even more unique about this particular weapon is that the balance point is located very close to the end of the blade. However, most of this information is only known by the smith and Vrith, and that information stays a secret with the only one of the two left alive.
Skills: Besides knowing a special, self-taught, form of fighting with his Great Blade, Vrith is an excellent negotiator, survivalist, chess player and, surprisingly to some, animal tamer.
