Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing):  
 
"...and was banished to the depths, never to be seen again." When he was young, Donatello Kennicott loved to hear the soothing voice of his mother as he would fall asleep. He was a passionate boy, enjoying the world around him and caring for all who returned the favor. Every night he would come home from the farm and lie down on the soft grass to watch the stars. It seemed that every night they twinkled brighter and brighter in the sky while making patterns, as if they were trying to say something to him. His passion for the sky and the unknown flowed through him as he listened to stories every night about his ancestors and his past. He became extremely close to his mother, as he hadn't seen his father after he was only 2 months old; at least that is what his mother said. 
 
After a few years, Roux had grown and became an adept with a sword, but still resembled innocence and passionate towards kindness. He had walked to the door of his creaky house, made completely of mahogany wood and determination, but noticed that the door was slightly open. It was an odd sight, as he remembered closing the door to give his sleeping mother some peace from the outside world. Roux quickly stepped in and nearly collapsed to the floor as he saw his mother being tormented by 2 street rats, about the same size as Roux. One of them was holding a sickle, greased with blood and fear, while the other was asking the same question as if he was a broken record-player: "Where is it?" Roux tried to carefully step towards the two men, but irony kicked in and the wooden board creaked ever so slightly. The man with the sickle turned around, meeting his partner's gaze and started to chase Roux. He slipped outside and hid to the wall just to the right of the door, waiting for the two men to walk towards him. Surely enough, the man with the sickle came through and Roux tried to slice him with the sword. With cat-like reflexes, the man with the sickle caught the sword  with the weapon and out emerged a large hiss from the clashing of metal. He successfully managed to release the grip from the sickle on his sword, and sliced the mans arm, giving him a gushing wound to his sword arm. He was ready to deliver a final blow, until he felt the butt of something hit the back of his head, and everything suddenly clicked off. 
 
Roux woke up to the sound of bells clinging and people singing, just off to the road on the right. He tried to stand, but almost gave way and fell down. He managed to get himself into a criss-cross position and looked at his arms. Fortunately enough, only meager cuts were scattered around, and the same went for his legs. He looked at his leathery hands and felt the back of his head, only to find himself feeling one of the biggest bumps he had ever felt. Roux found a way to stand up, but only with the help of the stick he picked up off of the ground. The first thing  he did was rush back into the house, hoping his mother was still there. The moment he stepped in, rage filled his body and his fists turned purple. Papers were scattered, tables were turned over, furniture was destroyed, and his mother was no where to be found. He started to tear, and crashed his fists on the only table remaining. Then out of nowhere, a sparkle reflected off of his peripheral vision, and he looked over out of curiosity. It was a letter with an ornate stamp on it, and words "For Nathaniel".
 
Roux picked up the envelope which was torn on the right and open, and he slowly pulled out its contents and found a silver beret and a letter. He opened the three-fold letter and read aloud the lone sentence written in black ink: "They are coming. Find him a safe place in New Abresi and rekindle his passio.." The latter of of the sentence was a mess of black ink and a duplet of blood drops. He wondered what the two men were looking for wanting it so much that they would kill for it? It couldn't have had been money, as the family had almost none. But the bigger question was who was Nathaniel? Could this have been the father he never knew? A moment later, a spark came to mind and he went around the remains of the house collecting the leftover coin and clothes, put them to in a rucksack, and went back outside. The last of the people were walking by, and he ran over to converse with one of the choir boys. "Where is this parade going?" he asked in a rushed tone. The boy stopped singing for a heartbeat, and whispered "New Abresi". He then looked away and started to sing the hymn. Roux released the rope on his trusty steed "Steadfast", and rode off into the distance, not knowing of what was to come in his future ahead. 
 
What are they like (personality)?: 
 
Roux can be called a hot-head, or a pleasant gentleman, depending solely on his mood. his anger can get the best of him, and persuade him to do foolish actions, or he can best his anger and calm down situations and make them to the best. He has a slight sense of bias towards women (mostly in just a friendly way), and a negative approach to other men. 

What are their ambitions?:
 
Roux's main ambitions are to be someone of importance and to cleanse the world of most evil. He knows that it is a very far-fetched ambition, and most certainly will not be complete any time soon. But he is willing to do anything to help, and tries everyday to get better at his preferred melee combat style. He also does want to eventually write a book on his pastimes as well so he can show his kids what life was like when their parents were children. 

Do they have any special skills?: 
 
Roux has two unique skills that help him in most major situations. When in a good mood and when working with others during a gentle negotiation, he can persuade others to go more in his favor and to accept to his terms and/or conditions. Roux also is quite adept with a sword, as in his young years learned how to master both techniques as the "man of the house". 

What are their weaknesses?: 
 
As with most Southerons, Roux isn't the typical "craftsman". He doesn't ave all too much skill in skilled tasks and carpentry, despite his muscular arms and leathery fingers. (As mentioned above), Roux also has a weakness with having his emotions get the better of him, even though he tries to fight them off with every bit of mental willpower he has. 

Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: 
 
Roux is around 6"2, and weighs around 200 pounds. He has shaggy hair and bright blue eyes, just like his mother. He is quite the athlete, and shows muscular strength in his arms, legs, and abdominal region, and wears normally just a shirt, pants, and normal shoes. 

Anything else you want to say about them?: 
 

Please give us a screenshot of your character’s skin:
