Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - 

Born in Ager, Donavin was the eldest son of a shepherd. Although his father spoke of his military time as a veteran man-at-arms of the Oren Lances, it wasn't until is younger brother, Vectis, was of age did he begin to receive lessons in sword play. His only purpose, it seemed, was to be a target for his younger brother. HIs mother, a very godly woman, had taught him how to read and write, using holy books and scripture as rescource. Due to this, he himself is a very religious man. When he came of age to take on household duties, he was sent to a nearby town, to learn how to work the forge as an apprentice. In the years he spent under the service of his master, Maleek, he rarely saw his brother, or his family. It was not until later in his life, he would see his brother again.

Shortly after Donavin turned twenty-five, he met with his brother, who was on his way to join the Salvus Shields. Maleek, seeing his apprentice flourish into quite the smith, advised that Donavin should follow his brother into military service. After all, someone had to forge the steel there, why not Donavin? After a few days of catching up with his brother, the two set off together, to join the Salvus Shields, where DOnavin would spend the rest of his military career. 

Although his duties as a smith kept him out of battle, there was always the rare chance of a defensive battle. Only then was he given the option of joining the fray. Including a time when forigners invaded Salvus. During one defensive battle, Donavin defended his forge from barbaric invaders, beating them to death with his hammer. He still has the fur curiass of one of the invaders, and wears it often as a trophy. There are still bits of his opponent's brain still embedded in the fur. His brother, Vectis the golden child, had quickly rose through the military ranks, and even left for greater acts of glory and duty. This eventually rekindled a resentment he still carries for his brother. After many years of service, he finally retired from duty at the age of 40.

Shortly after leaving his service in the SHields behind him, he found his brother Vectis had died. Saddened by his brother's death, he returned to help look after his nephews, in hopes that he could perhaps reforge his family's name in the fires of his dedication.

 

 

What are they like (personality)?: - 

Mildly lazy, Donavin feels as if his time spent in the military has earned him some manner of rest. He is openly cheery, and easy to speak to, although he is long to allow people to get to the level where they can talk to him. He tends to stay quiet, thinking to himself. He holds resentment for his brother's military sucess, and from time to time, takes it out on his nephews, although loving and caring toward his family. He has a soft heart for the elderly, and animals, mainly dogs.

 

What are their ambitions?: - 

Donavin, feeling he has fuffilled himself as a military smith, wishes nothing else than to settle down with the rest of his family, and assist in the raising of both his house, and his brother's children. He has always wanted to live a simple life, laboring away, as his children, and his children's children stay safe within his family's land. 

 

Do they have any special skills?: - 

Donavin was a smith for the Salvus Shields, where he remained for almost all of his military career. Experienced in his craft, he was a valued asset  to the Shields. Due to his work as a smith, he did not see much combat, save for during a defensive battle. Although he never truly experienced battle, he was trained extensivly alongside his comrades. Along with his training as a soldier, and his gift as a smith, he is filled with wisdom, and has been, even when he was young. He is soft spoken, yet his words carry much weight.

 

What are their weaknesses?: - 

He has a vivid memory of warfare, and the bloodshed and death it caused. With almost every strike of his hammer upo the anvil, he remembers everything. Every arm torn from every torso, every spear thrust through every innocent body. In a way, his greatest weakness, is brought out by his greatest strength.

 

Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - 

Donavin is tall, just under six feet tall. He is a thickly muscled man, taking time out ofeveryday to train and keep his large frame in shape. His onyx hair is contrasted by his light amber eyes, his hair cut short to his head. His facial hair his groomed an neatly trimmed. He is often found wearing the fur curiass he took off the body of the foriegn invader he took as trophy. He often wears a grin on his face, his eyes carrying with them a solemn happiness.

 

Anything else you want to say about them?: -
