Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):

Ettore Penrose, the small assassin. When he was just 10 months old his parents were killed by spiders and Ettore was cast into a dwarven orphanage. Ettore slowly grew up in the orphanage, playing with the other children there. Ever since he had been there another dwarf named Jack had been his closest companion. Jack was several years older then Ettore and treated him like a brother. They trained together, side by side, becoming stronger, fitter and more skilled than any dwarf their age. Ettore had always were black shorts and a fine black hooded top, but the hood might as well have never been there since he never wore it. The dwarfs respected him for his morals and pride, and they never uttered a word against him. And then his life changed. Ettore and Jack had been out hunting when they'd been attacked. They came, what they were Ettore could not tell for their faces were covered. An arrow had whistled out of the darkness and struck Jack in the leg. Ettore dived into the bushes and ran, it was all he could do. He'd seen them, all fifteen of them and he couldn't take them all on, he'd return for Jack when he could be sure it was safe. Ettore took to the trees and watched from above as they bundled Jack into a cart and drove off. When Ettore tried to follow he was ambushed by three of the hooded figures. The battle lasted twenty minutes and when they finally lay dead at his feet Ettore set off after Jack. It was no use, the cart was too fast and Ettore would never catch up.

He hunted for Jack for many years, but it was in vain. Ettore found no trace of the kidnappers, but he knew he would never give up.

When Ettore returned to the dwarfen halls he was a changed person. He took to escorting traveling dwarfs on the dangerous roads, hiding in the shadows and remaining unseen. And Ettore became know across the land. Whispers reached every corner of the dwarf who fought bandits and skeletons, and recused the innocent or needy. They never regonised him though, for his hood was always drawn up and armour covered his body.

Ettore is muscly and intimidating but he has a kind heart. He has a black beard, with a sword slapped to his side and a bow concealed by his armour.

Your characters ambitions:

Ettore wishes to find Jack, this is his main goal. In the mean time he hopes to assist anyone that needs help and make the world a safer place.

Out in the Wilds, your character comes across a small cottage. Outside, there appears to be an elf struggling combat with two bandits. What does your character do?

Ettore strolls calmly towards the scuffle and calls out "What's going on?" He uses their reaction to conferm his idea that the bandits are the ones in the wrong. Ettore continues to calmly walk forward and slids a dagger into his palm so the bandits can't see it. As they advance on Ettore he throws the knife out and it hits one of the bandits in the neck. The surviving bandit is stunned and watches as his freind keels over. Ettore uses this destraction to draw his sword plung it into the second bandit, who's dead before he hits the ground. Ettore pulls a money pouch out of the bandits hand and throws it to the elf.

"Here's your change," he winks.

Your character walks up to a shop in a quiet market. "Hello, madam!" says the shop owner. "What may I help you with today?" How does your character answer?

"I'm not a woman" Ettore mutters, "I recently lost my dagger in a fight, i wish to see your finest range."
