So, I've been tagged in an OC profile game on Tumblr, and since I love talking about Forlorn here on WAFRN, I've decided to crosspost!
Name: Crow
Role: Protagonist
Age: ??? (Between 250 and 500 at the moment of his death)
Gender: Male
Type of being: Eternal (?) made Undead
Appearance: Height below average, very skinny build. Pale, grayish skin, blackened eye bags. Unkempt, long black hair and brilliant purple eyes. Crooked nose that looks as if it was broken numerous times. Crooked pinky fingers (clinodactyly). Sunken cheeks.
Occupation: Hunter at Tedrick's inn. Khaede's village weirdo.
Family Members: ??? (Wishes he could know!)
Describe their room: The smallest, most decrepit room of Tedrick's tavern. His room mates are Squeakers the giant rat and a colony of ants.
Way of speaking: I always imagine him with Con O'Neill's voice! That being said, his vocal cords are, uh… tired after so much time spent in the grave, so his voice breaks into pitiful creaks when he gets too emotional. On day to day basis, Crow speaks meekly and rarely, trying not to garner too much attention to himself.
Hobbies: Running away from pitchfork wielding peasants. He likes to imagine he'd be really good with a lute if he had enough money to get one.
Fears: Pitchforks. Torches. People perceiving him as a monster instead of a human being. The possibility that his loved ones are all long dead, or that he used to be a terrible person and they might not miss him at all.
Magical Abilities: Crow's a Shadow Mage - which includes, but is not limited to being able to talk to his own Shadow (who serves as a faithful if a little bit snarky guide to him).
Interpersonal Relationships: Man, those are hard being an Undead. There's one old man who's not willing to burn Crow on a stake, and that will have to do for now.
Faults: Crippling social anxiety and self-doubt.
Good Points: Hard working, loyal to a fault, and actually really good with that lute once he gets his hands on it!
What they want more than anything: Not to feel alone in the world anymore.
