Long rolanberry red hair spills down his back to the junction of tail and spine, straight as an arrow, occasionally ornamented with flowers or a decorative pin. In contrast to his deep red hair, his eyes shine like a winter sky and his skin is fair as only a child of the moon could be, blemished with scars that appear too deliberate to be gotten in the trials of youth.
Sen'ra's right eye is marred by a vertical scar that bisects his eyebrow, though no damage seems apparent to the eye itself. There is a similar slash along his left cheek and another vertical scar at the corner of his mouth, seemingly from the same weapon, all faded with age. Hidden under his hair is an intricate brand on the right side of his face that he endeavors to keep out of sight.
Though he can regularly be found in garments similar to Doman fashions, loose fabrics that obscure his physique, he possesses the figure of a man that works for a living with toned muscles and a trim form. When on a job, he'll don more functional gear, but rarely wears outfits of western design.
Aspects That Stand Out:
■ Scars over his right eye, across his left cheek, and at the left corner of his mouth.
■ An intricate brand on the right side of his face, hidden by his hair as often as possible.
■ Very long hair that reaches down to the base of his tail that he frequently wears loose or braided.
About
The Tayuun family, tucked deep within the Black Shroud, possessed little rapport with Gridania and the rest of the Shroud. Known as little more than a xenophobic group of Keepers, poaching was the least of their offenses. A haven of crime and abuse, they took the values of the Keepers and stretched it to the extremes, behaving as more of a mob than a family.
The hierarchy revolved around the Matriarch, renowned for her progeny, all of them male, near unheard of in Keeper society. Sen'ra was the fifth and final son of her line, bearing his mother's brand on the right side of his face since the night he came of age.
Murder, manipulation, and bribery were some of several common occurrences among the family. Desensitized to the natural order of 'right' and 'wrong', his moral compass was tempered only by the words of his father. Because of this, he walks a more neutral path, but is not averse to getting his hands dirty.
Though it's been several years, he is hesitant to set foot into the northern Shroud for fear of being recognized. The parting with his family was not a pleasant one.
He studied conjury for a time before departing the Black Shroud for La Noscea, where he made his first home since leaving the deep woods. He leads a small mercenary band by the name of The Siren's Bounty, and also owns and operates a bathhouse in southern Shirogane called The Auspicious Fish.
Notes:
■ He can be distrustful of other Keepers at first, due to his history, especially ones with similar coloring as himself.
■ He will avoid the Black Shroud as much as possible, and makes a habit of keeping his brand hidden if he's forced to travel out that way.
■ Given the very nature of his upbringing, his views can differ from that of the law. Though he has a steady sense of what is right, he's not above bending the rules in favor of it.
PERSONALITY
Generally mild-mannered, his voice and poise are regal, elegant and fluid with a warrior's tact and a dancer's grace. While his gaze seems far from inviting, he presents himself cordially to strangers and companions alike, with little variety between the two.
There is a slight accent to his stuttered speech, a soft roll of his R's, though nothing strong enough to distinguish a dialect beyond the characteristic Keeper articulation.

OOC information for YOU
It should go without saying that I separate IC and OOC. My character's thoughts, speech, and actions are not a reflection of who and what I am out-of-character.
I believe in OOC communication if there is something that either party does not understand. If you need for me to clarify something, please don't hesitate to whisper me and ask!
I have and will refuse to acknowledge any in-character godmoding or out-of-character harassment. I welcome any interaction in-character, be it pleasant or otherwise, lighter or darker themes. I do not consent to any harm done to my character without prior communication and permission given beforehand.
I have a very clear distinction when it comes to OOC/IC. They must remain separate at all times if we are to RP together, especially on an extended basis and I reserve the right to end interactions should this be impeded upon. I've been burnt heavily by people mistaking IC care and OOC friendship and attention with romantic regard and honestly I don't wish to go through another such debacle once more. If my character dislikes yours that does not mean I hold the same sentiment. If my character loves yours that does not translate to me feeling the same for you, though I might feel a platonic equivalent. I am not my characters and they are not me. Respect this and we shall get along famously.
Personal RP Limits
I don't have very many hardcore limits honestly as I feel consequences must be adhered to when RPing any character regardless of whom they might be. However there are a few exceptions to this and they are as follows.
■ I will play Almost anything that isn't described below.
■ I won't play Death, Rape, Maiming, ERP only Plots. I don't mind romance but it needs to be earned and respected. Do not try and force your character on to mine. If I feel this is the case I will quickly end the RP and speak with you OOCly to either correct the issue or end the RP connection between the two in a faithful manner both parties can agree upon.
Disclaimer
Little Tidbits.
■ If you're ever uncomfortable, tell me! I don't bite! I can get pretty into RPing out consequences however and while I do my best to make sure permission is had and everyone is comfortable I'm not perfect. If you have a problem speak up.
■ This is a broad statement for all my characters, but I have a hard limit of at least two months before I'll allow my character to enter a relationship. A good friend mentioned their own rule regarding this and I greatly respected the idea of it, so I'll be putting it into practice myself. I've been burned far too many times by hasty RP relationships and want to make it clear from the get go so there is no misunderstanding. If your character is trying to romance my own, be prepared for it to take awhile.
