Parsinald Lionborn

Parsinald Lionborn UNDER CONSTRUCTION Art of Parsinald by Helios Daima About Name: Parsinald Lionborn Alias: Parsi, Grandpa, Papa Parsi, Parsnips Age: 62 Gender: Male Race: Hyur Clan: Highlander Nationality: Ala Mhigan Occupation: Guard Alignment: Lawful Good AppearancePersonalityRumorsMusicOOCCreditContact Tell-tale crow feet at the edges of the lion's emerald eyes, and the many streaks of grey through his naturally crimson tresses tell a story of a long and hardship filled life. His craggy features and the subtle hobble in his long powerful stride that favors his left leg are most notable when he's approaching, followed by the glint of a sword on his hip and a lion-faced steel buckler strapped to his back. The old lion towers over most hyurs at a solid 6'7", and his frame is one built for backing the shield he favored, not the quickest of men, but solid and hard to bring to his knees. Even at his age he takes great pride in his physique, spending many long hours training when he's not actively guarding caravans or patrolling the shroud. Scars & Markings: The lion ruddy tanned skin is a tapestry of scars and marks from several long years in battle, but very rarely are they visible. On the rare occasion he's not wearing protective armor, his torso and back are landscapes of age-old wounds which never quite healed right. Most notable among the wounds are a pair of large granular scars: one at his abdomen, wrapping around his left side and a similar scar over his right lung. Voice: Parsinald's voice is deep and authoritative, but rolls off the tongue a bit gravelly. He is a passionate man and his inflection reflects that, stressing syllables hard when he is trying to make his point and chomping down hard on words with fury. When he laughs it's a husky sound, breathy but it rumbles from deep within his chest. Clothing: He favors armor above all else, and most frequently in shades of red and gold to match the colors of his clan, but he is often found in his Adder Uniform when patrolling the shroud or making rounds near Gridania. All the Strength and Pride of a Lion comes at the cost of arrogance and blindness to one's own flaws. That pride will be his undoing. --- A natural father figure, and frequent albeit somewhat unwilling leader, Parsinald is not without a great many inherent flaws, but the strongest of which is his Pride, a pride that many Mhigans feel, but was reinforced in his youth from the day he could hold a sword, and even after his family's fall from grace he remained ever loyal and proud of his heritage and the legacy of the Lion Clan. He can be charming and witty, but is most known for his easy to read and completely unabashed grumpiness when he is unhappy. He is quick to sharp words, fist fights, and the occasional table flip, but rarely will he go for his sword first unless provoked. Seldom can his mood not be nearly immediately improved by good food or strong drink.

I heard the Lion clan was disgraced when the old mad king was about. They renounced him in the end, but what good did that do? They still lost the city." ■ "I'm not finished yet, I heard he's in a harem with his twin's wife! She didn't just want one brother, she had to get both!" ◢ Rare Rumors - Very rarely overheard.
