[Ëthan] Tenebraus Ygnis

Name: Tenebraus (te-ne-bray-yus) "Braus" Ygnis

Race: Liannon

Age: 98

Gender: Male

Personality: Tenebraus believes in Liannic pacifism, but he strongly disagrees with not meddling in the matters of the world. He believes that as a culture centered around mysticism and nature, they should make sure that balance is struck in the world. He also doesn't believe in using violence only when it is a matter of life and death. He believes that violence in self defense is perfectly justifiable.

He is one of the few snobbish Liannon but once he warms up, he is kind but not necessarily polite. He also loves to intimidate people.

Tenebraus is an eloquent debater, but he would not openly admit such. He loves solitude and often went out in the mornings to meditate alone. When the winter started getting harsher about 35 years ago, however, he has been confined to using a secluded room in his home.

Appearance: Braus is a little short of 7 feet tall at 6'8". He has a light covering of sand colored fur that bleaches into almost-white at the tips. He is well built and looks like he can handle himself in a fight. He often wears lush silky clothing and often complains about wool's itchiness.

He often wears an "I-can-break-you-if-only-I-wanted-to" expression and loves to bare his teeth whenever opposing parties are hostile towards him. When he is frustrated or irritated, he makes a low rumbling growl. He is very skilled with his hands.

Weapons/Equipment: Braus, being a believer of Liannic pacifism abhors blades and as such would not be caught dead wielding one. He uses two wooden sticks the length and weight of a longsword. The wood was hardened in magical fires and would not break even under the weight of twelve elephants.

Magical Skills/Gifts (if any): During his early years, Braus was a herbalist. He was not exactly the best in this profession, but he certainly knew what he was doing. When the winter began to grow colder and colder, Braus stopped practicing herbalism due to most of the plants dying off, and in the process discovered the ability to walk the world of dreams.

Background/Bio/Short personal story: Born during a harsh blizzard, Braus has always been intimately linked to the winter, even being one of the few that enjoyed meditating outside during cold, calm mornings. Later on in his life, his parents came to the realization that the mysterious circumstances of his birth, in the middle of a blizzard at the end of the year, was an omen of the path he would take.

Being born of noble blood, his voice was far from ignored, albeit often muted. Few Liannon ever sided with him over whatever course of action to take. He wanted to put an end to the winter and let the natural progression continue, but many other Liannon refused to take sides in the conflict.

During recent years, he has taken to living in a different home with a few servants to do his bidding. He lets them do what they wish once they finish their duties which are often few because of the winter. Apart from cleaning the modest property and preparing food, the servants often have nothing to do, but they stay anyway for the pay. Although he would never admit it, Braus enjoys the company of the simple folk.

He bides time in his home, waiting for a reason to strike out against the winter.

Yes, your haughty Liannon is approved, of course ^_^ You just respected your creation proccess and did it very well.
