APPEARANCE

FIRST IMPRESSION.

With his myriad scars, muscular stature, and decorated broken horn, Madoc can be a rather imposing-looking xaela. His tall posture is relaxed most times, moving with a confidence as if he owns whatever place he walks into. Almost always present is a smug little smirk, and a low, earthy chuckle often rumbles from him. His black eyes are much more observant than he first seems. He appears to be the laid-back sort and one with whom a good drink and story could be shared.

CLOTHING.

Simple leathers, furs, and cloth make up the majority of Madoc's everyday wear. Sometimes plated boots cover his legs and arms, but otherwise he's a man of simple means. His upper half is rarely covered, exposing his tanned skin and the diverse marks scattered across his well-built form.

Madoc has been chided on more than one occasion to put on a shirt, yet he stubbornly refuses. 'The abs need to breathe', he would claim with a little teasing grin. Lately he's been seen wearing a dark red coat, and this seems to be a compromise of sorts with whoever convinced him to wear it.

SCARS.

Many. Each one has a grand story that goes with it, or so he claims. Whether they are true or not, no one can say for certain, and even Madoc seems coy on the matter.

On his head, two small scars are etched below his left eye, cutting through the scales of his face. There are also a few small scars that jut past his hairline, unseen until it was shaved. His left horn is noticeably broken a good 3-4 ilms in the front and the back.

Various other scars litter his body, from the small ones on his neck and arms, to larger scars that run across his torso and lower back. These are all easy to see, as Madoc makes no attempt to hide them. Instead of shame, he seems quite proud of his collection.

KEY ITEMS.

	"Vadriak" : Madoc's primary weapon, a large greataxe wrapped in chains for added weight, power, and intimidation factor. He inherited this monstrous weapon from his leader and father-figure, Wolf.
	"Noboru" : This greatsword displays expert craftsmanship, often used when Madoc wishes for a (relatively) smaller blade. Within its interlocking parts are inscribed three symbols in Doman: te ma me.
	"Malcontent" : Taken from Stanton's defeated corpse, this currently hangs on Madoc's wall instead of on his back. A malicious aura swirls around it, but Madoc thinks that just makes his prize more badass.
	Linkpearls : Madoc has a lot of them, with a few hanging from his horn, yet he always seems to know exactly which one to touch.
	Liquor : One can almost always find a leather-wrapped flask hanging from Madoc's waist. It's his number one way to occupy some empty time and break the ice.

● Erica Mikhori "???" WIP ● Ruran Vas "ALABASTER" A midlander hidden beneath a white mask and plated armor, Ruran hired Madoc's services for a rather uncharacteristic request: to keep distant watch over a family. Despite not being his typical line of work, the coin is good, and thus Madoc has kept his word. To Ruran's dismay, Madoc easily figured out the man's identity, but he remains quiet on the matter. ● Hitsurugi (NPC, deceased) "Shitsurugi" WIP ● Stanton (NPC, deceased) "Nobody" WIP ● The Rujaz'an (Organization, deceased) WIP

OOC INFORMATION

DISCLAIMER. I'm not looking to attach myself to one particular person; I want a wide spectrum of players and personalities! While I consider myself a heavy RPer, work and personal projects (as well as doing PvE dailies) keep me busy sometimes, so if you're looking for an RP partner with whom you can spend most of your time, I'm afraid I'm not for you. I'd still love to meet your character and develop a story, but possessiveness and jealousy are huge aversions for me. COMMUNICATION AND RESPECT. Want to RP? All you have to do is mention it in my presence, and I will try to make plans. It's that easy, don't be shy! If you're uncomfortable? Tell me; I will do the same for you. There is little that can happen in an RP that will make me squeamish, so long as it is OOCly consensual among all parties involved. I prefer my RP to be a little gritty and I ask that at least an attempt is made to be lore-consistent, but otherwise I am open for all kinds of RP.

ACCESSIBILITY AND SCHEDULING. All of my characters are located on the Balmung server. My timezone is EST/GMT-5, and I'm often online after 6pm Monday-Saturday, and Sundays I'm available all day. I also enjoy Skype/Discord RP, for those who have a busy schedules/time conflicts, enjoy para-posting, or want something laid-back that takes place over casual windows of time. CHARACTER REHAUL. This character was originally active for RP in 2015, but he has since undergone a few retcons and changes, resulting in a 'reboot' of sorts. If you've met Madoc before, please let me know if you would like to be re-added! TUMBLR. The Hundred Blades is Madoc's aesthetic/IC tumblr. Asks/reblogs are placed here. May be slightly NSFW. The Hand of Mercy is my main account, used for OOC reblogs/art, and general FFXIV content.
