Character

General

Altansarnai is an older Auri man from Othard. Unlike most of the Xaela however Altansarnai comes off as more passive and willing to hear others out. But it is common knowledge amongst those who know of him that he has a temper that is slow to heat up and even slower to cool down. His tendencies when riled up go from a so-called social norm to behaviours which would be considered babaric and inhumane.

Appearance

A tall, rather 'handsome' looking Xaela Au Ra. Altansarnai stands at 6 fulms and nine ilms. His eyes are a very light, icy-blue in colour almost grey which are brought out by the dark facial markings he has covering his eyes. These are very good at hiding his emotions. Altansarnai does not trust. His long, dark purple coloured hair is usually found tied back, out of his eyes for the most part. His head's cranial projections are as black as the night sky, with the tip of each horn brightening up to a near-silver in colour. These are surprisingly well-looked after, though there are a couple of chips here and there, in particular on his right horn. Attached to each horn are tribal ornaments of the Malaguld, it is rare to see him without these. With broad shoulders, it is no surprise that this Auri man is very muscular - it is easy to see where most of the man's swing-strength comes from, but he is far off the strength of Highlander men and Roegadyn. His hands and fingers are adorned with sharpened claw-like nails and again, more tribal ornaments. His torso is sculpted and muscular, much like how a swimmer would be. It is clear that the Auri man is fit and very healthy. Behind him, a large muscular tail follows his movements. It is much thicker and more muscular than the average Auri tail.

But his attire is perhaps the strangest thing of all, for any Xaela man to wear. His general appearance is a black and orange bolero, adorned with near-golden thread. This appears to be worn by members of his War Party. It is very uncommon to see him take it off. It most likely is a significant tradition for his blood family. His father wore something similar.

Behaviour

He is a very distrustful person to begin with. His actions speak louder than his words. It is not uncommon to find this man as rigid as a board when speaking to people he does not know. Though he is slow to anger, he is even slower to cool off. His behaviour itself could be described as passive aggressive. It is why he is known as 'Akumu' to people he does not trust.

Towards his allies and trusted friends, however they see a different side of him. A loyal friend and an even greater ally, Altansarnai will go to any lengths to aid his allies. Once an oath between the sharing of blood is made, it shan't be broken.

Combat

General

Being the son of a Malaguld War Leader, Altansarnai has been brought up by his father learning how to handle most types of weaponry. Although to most he is considered a novice in most types of weaponry, he does however hold some skill in wielding his primitive axe as well as a sword and shield, which appear to be handmade by someone who is not a smith. These weapons, though weak-looking, are sturdy enough to have handled war amongst the Xaela tribes.

Tendencies

Oddly enough, Altansarnai when speaking to others, will sometimes revert to his native tongue within his tribe. He seems to use the word 'teneg' a lot.
