Nicolas Fireblade started out as a simple blacksmith's boy, living on a farm with his father, mother, and older brother. His father payed little to no attention to him, his mother did the same. His brother was the only person that was a father figure to Nicolas. 

 

His brother, Alexander Fireblade would take him out to the wheat fields close to the house to practice sword play. Although Nicolas never knew what the reason his brother was teaching how to fight was. 

 

Day after day they practiced, his skills slowly improving. Once Alexander thought Nicolas was ready, he lead him into the capital city of Petrus. Once they passed through the gates, the veered off the road to a little alley way. Alexander gave Nicolas his knife saying "If anything goes wrong, you need to remember what I taught you." Nicolas looked confused at this, being only fourteen years old, he had an idea of what was going to happen.

 

"What are we going to do Alex?" He asked rather quietly. "We're going to earn our minas" Alexander replied. The two went back to the street when Alexander spotted a woman walking toward the old bakery. The two followed the lady, as she entered the empty shop they stood in line behind her.

 

Alexander slowly pulled out his blade and made his way closer to the lady. Nicolas stood there, shaking, not knowing what to do or how to act. The lady turned around to notice Alexander looking at her. "H-Hello there sir" She managed to get out before she noticed the sword. Alexander pointed the tip of the blade to her stomach before saying "Hand over all your valuables, and we will leave without a sound"

 

The lady nodded before reaching into her pocket and pulling out a sack of minas. She looked toward Nicolas with a frown. "You have a child robbing women now. What a shame" She said throwing the sack to Nicolas. 

 

The two ran out of the bakery as the woman cried for help. Guards came running down the steps of the castle, and were screaming for the two to halt. Alexander stopped and grabbed Nicolas. He whispered to him "I'm sorry" as he spun him around so that they would be facing the guards. The enraged crows were screaming "Let the child go!" But Alexander did no such thing. Instead he put his sword to Nicolas's neck, threatening to kill him. "Stay back, or the child gets gutted" he cried.

 

The guards were slowly moving forward, with more men aiming their bows in the direction of the two. "I said stay back!" Alexander repeated. Alexander was oblivious to the guards moving closer from the back. They aimed an arrow at his head and within seconds, Nicolas felt the sword on his neck drop, his brother's clutch, vanished. Alexander dropped to the ground, lifeless. Nicolas let out a scream of anger as he heard his brother drop. He took out the dagger and charged towards one of the guards in front of him. The guard swiftly moved out of the way, extending his leg to the side as to trip Nicolas. He fell to the ground, sorrow filling his body as he turns to look at his fallen brother. He quickly picked himself up and ran to the alleys, weaving swiftly through the narrow streets before finding a small hole through the wall. He quickly crawled through the hole and ran for days without end. He never came back to his family, he ran until he found a suitable place in the woods and carved "Alexander" into one of the oak trees with his brother's knife. He lived on, teaching himself how to survive until he was ready to reconnect with society. He got a job at the Viridian Pub when he was twenty years old, but remembers his brother every day, looking for a worthy soul to sacrifice to his brother.

 

 

 

What are his/her motives?  What do you plan to gain from this?: 

Nicolas Fireblade wishes to avenge his brother any way that he can. Elves make worthy sacrifices, especially the high elves. After every sacrifice, he buries the body in an unmarked grave, or pins his victim up to a tree, depending on how worthy they were. 

 

 

 

What moral boundaries does your character have, if any?: Nicolas will never hurt children if he can help it. 

 

 

 

What general kind of Villain will you be? (Bandit, Pirate, Raider, Madman, Cultist, Antihero, Destroyer Of Worlds, etc etc…): Murderer

 

 

 

 

Open Response - Answer at least two of the open ended scenarios below. Do not powergame, metagame, or do anything else rulebreaking or unrealistic. Each scenario is designed with no particular objective in mind and is open ended deliberately. Assume your character is in each position, regardless of their normal situations:

 

 

-An elderly man with a walking stick(possibly a staff), a middle aged woman in a flowing dress, and a teenage boy with a sword hanging on his belt are walking down the road, with no others in sight that you can tell...

 

Nicolas Fireblade looks over to the group, smiling at the boy. He smiles at Nicolas but stays behind the woman. Nicolas moves closer to the three before saying "Hello" and kneeling to the boy. "Thats a very nice sword" He says with a gleaming smile, "Did your father make it?" The boy says "N-no, I did!" Nicolas sees that the boy is obviously trying to impress him and pats the top of his head. "Maybe one day you can make me a sword" Nicolas stands up and slowly walks away. The boy, now smiling uncontrollably, tugs on the ladies dress, begging for her to move faster so that he can practice his smithing. 

 

-You are about to head out of your house when someone starts pounding on your door frantically.  You open the door to see a human woman, dress half torn, a gash across her cheek bleeding, fear in her eyes as she begs you for help. Someone has just attacked her and her sister, killing the sister, and the girl barely getting away and losing him...

 

Nicolas Fireblade opens the door, sword drawn. The lady starts asking for help, tears rolling down her face. Nicolas slowly lowers his sword, looking at the woman, "What happened to you?" He asks in a calm voice. "I've been attacked! My sister, he killed my sister!" She cries. Nicolas tells her to wait as he goes inside of his house, getting a steak knife from the basement. He goes back upstairs to see that the woman is still outside of the door, her face in her hands as she continues to weep. Nicolas hands her the knife and pushes her out from his door, slamming it in her face. He proceeds down the stairs as the banging on the door proceeds. "If you want something done, do it yourself" He says to himself as he sits down in his library and begins to meditate.
